This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Click Guinness glass, get posts 10/5/01. U2 played at ND 5 by Domerduck
days later on 10/10/01 at the Joyce Center. The post titles mentioned it would be webcast and discussed great ND concerts (Tull, Bruce, Tom Petty). Still my favorite question was "Can one "capture" a RealAudio stream for posterity?" That was 5 years before Youtube.
Well U2 may not be as legendary as Guinness from Ireland, but they still are one of the greatest Irish Bands. The only act that might be better from Ireland was Van Morrison, who I worked that concert at ND 9/15/74. Opening song "It's a Beautiful Day (full concert Youtube link below). The opening act for that show was Garbage.
