    They were great for a while, live at Red Rock was an example of their best. It all went to sh*t with Rattle and Hum and then when Bono decided to live up his own arsehole.

    There were no good groups in the 80s, mid 60s were best, Cream, Fleetwood Mac, Bolan T Rex, Canned Heat, Birds, Yardbirds with Clapton, Mayalls Bluesbreakers, Stones.
