Embarrassing Onstage Antics: No. 15

15. Stuck in a Moment You Literally Can't Get Out Of

It was a travesty of a mockery of a sham when U2, the world's most earnest band, went ironic for its mega-sized 1997 Popmart tour. Metaphorically speaking, it doesn't get much more precious than the incident in Oslo when the band's 40-foot lemon-shaped pod malfunctioned, trapping the band inside. All they could do was laugh, the Edge later admitted.

Yes, Hillary would have been best. This is herstory now and we need to look at our future. Which is the lesser of two evils? Obama or McCain? If any of you can say that keeping a republican in office is going to make this country any better, then you need to take a closer look at where republicans have led us to date. We are economically worse then any of us can remember and on a whole hated by more nations than we are liked. Do you want a president that walks and talks like he has a hand up his ass or take a chance on change? It can't get any worse but it could stay the same. Vote Change. Change is Good.

Dump that sexist term "pop tart." It's inappropriate and unprofessional.

I am sick of C students running this country. Would you rather have a President who finished in the bottom 10 in his class, and a Vice President that took 6 years and 5 schools to get a bachelor's degree or a President who graduated in the top 2 of his class at Harvard Law School and a Vice President who also graduated from Law School?

Justsaynototheo, please shut the fuck up. Your just sounding racist and over zelous in your white christan american poorly constructed rant. You will vote for whoever you will vote for, and so will the rest of us. So for the sake of us all, shut up and keep your two cents to yourself. Even Mccaine is not a saint, Obama may not have much experiance for us to judge, but the latter has time and time again changed his mind and has been influanced far too easily by others for me to be entirely comfortable with him running the country, not to mention he is in his 70's and will most likely keel over before he can complete a term. Let people make their own minds up about who we vote for, and not bitch about how the liberals are going to mess up your day. Booo.

Anna Monster.

Okay, anyway, back to the topic at hand here... whoever writes this shit completely missed the fact Pop and ZooTV tours were SUPPOSED to be over the top, that was the irony of them, it was all done tongue in cheek.

Anyway, even Bono refers to the broken lemon spaceship as a 'Spinal Tap' moment.

I don't care if Oprah is pampering Obama. People need to stop jugding people by the color of their skin. I vote Obama.
