    You make it so hard sometimes, Bono.

    And the Edge? Seriously…

    I’m not excited about this Spider Man thing either, but we shouldn’t complain really, we should let them do whatever they want after all the great music they’ve given us …

    I agree!

    The boys have earned the right to do what they’d like, but I suspect that this is another PopMart muscle shirt in the long and (mostly) glorious history of U2.

    And a minute and fifty two seconds of them clumsily justifying the connection between rock n’ roll and comic books does not me question my questioning of this SNL skit come to life!

    The PopMart muscle shirt was fantastic. PopMart itself was their most creative peak ( IMO ) . Nonetheless, don’t worry how this will be perceived in the end – it’s a waste of energy.
