    You make it so hard sometimes, Bono.

    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.

    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.

When a nation is over-reliant on one or two commodities like oil or precious minerals, corrupt government ministers and their dodgy associates hoard profits and taxes instead of properly […]
