Americans didn't "get" Pop and the stadium was only half full. If Americans were less than enamoured with POP, maybe it was because the album was lacking. While we are thick headed Imperialist Dogs, I think most American U2 fans can hear it and recognize the nuances and appreciate the attempt to create something no one else was doing. Even a monkey boy like myself can at least respond to a great album on a visceral level. This was not a great album and that is why it received at lukewarm reception all over the world, not just in Atlanta. Maybe the people that panned it "got it" better than a

I was criticizing POP on it's own merits, not suggesting they keep making albums that sound like their safer but more popular release. I like when they experiment; my two favorites are probably ACHTUNG and Zooropa.

Better to swing for the fences than bunt. I guess no one thought my Kellogg's reference was that clever. You're probably right.

Someone once described Pop as U2 straining to make the kind of album Garbage makes effortlessly. I think that's a good description.

How many of you were at the original Joshua Tree tour?

April 2 1987 - Opening night of the tour in Tempe and my first U2 show. Bono's voice was gone, but the crowd singing with ( and for ) him made it a special show. Like nothing I had seen or heard before. April 5 1987 - Tucson and Bono's voice is back. The capacity of the Tucson Community Center is 9000. Is this the smallest show of the tour? -
