@ToolsnFire I was around back then; they'd pass for a mainstream US haircut. U2 were this punkish alternative band and Bono's hair was disappointingly redneck.

@Nominay the haircuts were good for the time. Why do you call them terrible?
-
@MultiBert87 Ha. I'm glad that I'm not the only one that was fixated on that... besides the guitar tone and groove ;)

October is such a majestic record. My fave, actually. There's just so much emotion in it.

It is interesting to be able to track a band from their start. I have demos and other rare recordings from most of the bands I've been following for decades, including U2 and Bowie.
You can't really track bands today because they seem to come polished, sterile, and boring right out of the mainstream box. Not that I'd care to follow any of them. The last band I faithfully followed was the Pixies. Before that Joy Division.
Having been born in the 60's had its benefits. We cared about music.
wonderful line: "i can't change the world, but i can change the world in me"...
