 Well i have not posted to the list in quite some time so forgive me if i
ramble here...but here goes nothing:
1...My fav videos are
       1-The Fly: Pure energy and power!
       2-Discotheque: The Edge steals the show as usual in my opinion
       3-New Years Day: Classic that MUST be included !
       4-One: God i wish i had me one of those cars!
       5-Lemon: Only U2 could do this!!!!!
       6-Numb: Im an Edge fanatic...this is mandatory:)
        
While we're on this subject i have a question. Does ANYONE have a copy of all
U2's videos on 1 video? Please e-mail me with your price if you do or whatever
you would like to work out...im sure someone has this correct??i hope!!:)

In response to fans own personal "Greatest Hits/Moments" i have several
million stories but i'll narrow it down a bit!! I play minor league hockey and
i have the Music director for the games whos in charge of playing the music
while there are stoppages of play, play LOTS of U2 when im in net that night
and he obliges me of course! Especially if i make a good save he'll pump it up
loud and the crowd has caught on now as well and get excited to hear U2 during
the game!!(Which is no small feat in a smaller city in Texas in the middle of
nowhere!) He also does pre-game intros to "MOFO" when i play so needless to
say its not hard for me to get up for my games skating out on the ice to Mofo
in front of thousands of ppl...i cant even imagine what its like for "The
Guys" in front of a hundred thousand fans!!!!!!!!
 My other fav moment is the weeks leading up to "Pop's" release the radio was
already playing Discotheque but i would NEVER hear it in its entirety and i
had started going with this girl recently then...on our like 4th or 5th date i
got in her car and she said push the tape in (in her car stereo)...it was
Discotheque!!! Needless to say i REALLY fell in love with her then!! We're now
married with a son!!!:)(Who incidentally is named after Bonos friend Gavin
Friday!! I love Billy Boola!!)

As for the complaing about the GH?! These days people will always find fault
with something or other...its sad really that ppl must live their lives that
way...I Love life,I Love U2,I Love Mr The Edges sound....it stops me in my
tracks everytime and puts me in a different world! Long Live U2 and their
desire to not conform...Its refreshing to see them in the news again than all
these other bland bands with zero range!!!!

P.S. if there are any wire fans out there in Texas that live in WPHL (Double A
hockey league) towns i would love to hear from you, maybe we can get together
when my teams in town...most of the guys on my team listen to crap so i would
love to hangout w/ U2 fans after games partying!!
Cities are:Amarillo,Albuqurque,El Paso,Odessa,Abilene,Ft
Worth,Austin,Belton,Corpus Christi,Waco,Shreveport,Monroe,Lake
Charles,Alexandria,Tupelo,Little Rock......I'll even leave you and friends
tickets for the game if you want, i just wanna meet more U2 fans either way!
