    Please post them if you desire.

    For example, I like this album cover for U2's Achtung Baby.

    he played new songs the night I saw him in the cornerhouse.. I'd post a pic if I was at home.. I was THAT close. He's a nice bloke.

    I was also at the gig weher he got in trouble with Shepherds Bush council for playing past the allotted hour at the Empire a year or two back.. he just wouldn't 'Get off the stage'!

    haha! I've seen him a few times - Royal Albert Hall was particularly memorable cos he randomly went into "Oscillate Wildly" on the piano at one point! I think the people around me wondered why I was squealing... ahem.
