That is probably what you are asking yourselves. That my, friends, is The Building Formerly Known As Diana's Record Store in Eugene Oregon. Right there..in that building I heard U2 for the first time. Waaaaay back in 82. Walk Away Walk Away...I did follow.; November 28, 2007 7:23 AM

What's on your music wish list?

Thanks for stopping by my site.; November 28, 2007 8:24 AM
Starrlight said...: Oh my Amazon shopping cart has something like...300 items in it!

I am dying for the Rhino Box set Brit Box...BritPop is a favorite of mine. And I was the best of Adam Ant, Mezzanine from Massive Attack, the new Duran Duran album, and more and more and more!; November 28, 2007 8:29 AM

RWA said...: "I Will Follow," huh?

I am convinced that "Boy" and "War" are still perhaps their best two albums. Their music is great even today, but it was a bit more "raw" back then.; November 28, 2007 11:19 AM
Starrlight said...: Score for RWA on the song connection! And yeah I tend to think of them as having trilogy's. Boy, October and War are one period. Unforgettable Fire, Joshua and Rattle and Hum are another. Then Achtung Baby, Zooropa and Pop.

I love them all but those first three albums are totally different than anything that followed and I am attached to them. It blows my mind that it was 25 years ago.; November 28, 2007 11:29 AM

Starrlight said...: LOL Bond =)

U2 has been my favorite band going all the way back to 12 years old. I can still remember what Diana's smelled like. Strawberry insense!; November 28, 2007 1:22 PM
