Copying the following from the political tangent that occurred over in EYKIW and pasting it here. Just because this is so astoundingly absurd. You're fucking kidding, right? You think these are just momentary memory lapses from age? Minor misremembering? He said he crossed the Maryland...

I'll probably be on the wrong side of the vote on this one, but for me definitely Out Of Control.

Songs of Purgatory

I agree about Numb. I went into these shows thinking there was a greater than zero percent chance that they played it. I bet they could have done something cool with the visuals there. Missed opportunity, perhaps.

I’m glad you’re enjoying it and close to finishing. I worked at GCU for about 8 months when I lived in AZ and didn’t care for it at all.

Not a fan of the Counsell hire. Have never been real impressed by him. If nothing else, though, this hopefully suggests that Hoyer is willing to make big moves this offseason. I think they've got a real shot at signing Ohtani.

I love it. I love that there are no big names. Either the Diamondbacks become the most unlikely champs in a very long time, or the Rangers win their first. This will be the most interesting series since 2016. But no, the elites tell me that I'm supposed to want the Astros and Dodgers again...

I don't listen to the radio much anymore- only to and from work during my 5-minute commute- but I heard Atomic City for the first time today.

Slow Stool Atomic Shitty

I mean, this is the band that did 40, Gloria, Yahweh, etc. I don't think this song- if it is in fact U2 and if it does have obvious religious lyrics- will change that perception if it's not there already. The people that think they're a "Christian band" already think that. The people that know...

A few people have mentioned the closing song and wondered what it is (I haven't been to my show so I haven't actually heard it yet), but U2Songs posted a little something about it...

25 shows in total, so maybe they switch it up after every 5 shows? 5 nights RH, 5 nights SOI, 5 nights Zooropa, etc. I'd be surprised if the encore changes in any significant way.

Extended CBS interview. Regarding new music, at the 12:20 mark, Edge says that have a few albums in the vault that are "very close" to finished. Yet later on, he says that they are still in the songwriting phase of the guitar album. SOA described as very "folksy" and "joyful."

I love it. For the first several days, I was only able to listen to it on my phone. It wasn't until about 48 hours ago that I was able to listen to it on proper speakers, and like most of you said, I was very impressed with the sound and production. I think the lyrics are great, it's catchy...

Maybe a stupid question- what are those five symbols on that shirt? I can’t seem to make them out.
