Bono may be an arsehole, but U2 are a great band.
HOF by far.
I'm 14 and I'm in the US, that must mean something.
astrosdude91What? That you like U2?
Anyways, I voted Hall of Fame. Possibly one of the biggest and greatest bands on the planet! I'm more a fan of their early work. Stuff they put out before Joshua Tree. Stuff like this:

If you like U2's music, I would really suggest seeing Live at Red Rocks. It's a fantastic example of early U2.
Well, most of the kids my as can't stand that kind of music and think its stupid/lame.
That's what makes it a feat.

Hall of Fame. Totally.
Wow, I can't believe some of you, with your hatred of this band...
I voted HOF. One of the most influential bands of the 80's/90's.
You can borrow my extra flameshield. I agree with you. I can see people having a problem with Bono and his politics, maybe that's why alot of people voted the way they did.
Strange to see a fellow Judas Priest fan with this opinion...

Delphic ReasonEvery member is talented with their instruments
F1 fan - What U2 albums/songs/concerts have you been listening to?
Well this is just a matter of opinion, but they are a bunch of guys who can play to an average level. Absolutely nothing spectacular about them as musicians. They are mind numbingly average.
I'm going to agree with F1 here. U2 is mind-numbing boring with repetitive basic lyrics. My dad loves them and I simply don't understand it.
AlexGTVThey're not technical by no means but they play for the band as a whole.
Indeed.Drift260Zthe musicians in the band are indeed average. take away Edge's effect, and he would be useless.
AlexGTVThat's talent right there, he plays with the effects, they are an integral part of his playing. Even Bob Dylan said "Everybody will remember your melodies, but none will be able to play them".
