I'll offer Talking Heads as an off the wall idea. -- nm - TFox Dec 8, 11:39 3
- apparently not so off the wall. -- nm - Reagen Dec 8, 11:39 2
  - or we are equivalently off the wall. -- nm - TFox Dec 8, 11:40 1
    - bah! Tears for Fears would be the opener no question -- nm - Remlik Dec 8, 11:51

Twisted Sister. -- nm - Don Homer Dec 8, 11:37
U2 -- nm - Beryllium Dec 8, 11:37 12
- they could have a new biggest regret! -- nm - TFox Dec 8, 11:42
- Joshua Tree wasn't released until 87. I don't think so -- nm - oblique Dec 8, 11:41
- Weren't they already huge by themselves then? -- nm - nubby Dec 8, 11:41 8
  - that was the year Joshua Tree came out. It was when they first went really big, IIRC. -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 11:42 6
    - They were already a small force. Live at Red Rocks, etc. -- nm - Spawn Dec 8, 11:51
    - imagine if they did tour with the Beatles then. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 8, 11:44 4
      - Bono's ego would be its own sovereign nation by now. -- nm - TFox Dec 8, 11:46 1
        
        it's not now? -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 8, 11:51
      - and I don't think anyone other than The Stones says no to them. - Reagen Dec 8, 11:45 1
        
        I think Townshend would have triggered a Who reunion much earlier. -- nm - Remlik Dec 8, 11:48
  - Live Aid put them over the hump. -- nm - Reagen Dec 8, 11:41
- agreed. -- nm - Mel Profit Dec 8, 11:38
Rolling Stones. -- nm - loosilu Dec 8, 11:37
