2 MUCH
U2 = boring. Robert Hilburn = boring. Last Sunday’s Robert Hilburn U2 article “Building the Beast” = infinite boredom!
The most exciting thing about U2 in the last 15 years is that the Edge took his [expletive deleted] hat off!

Why run another huge spread on U2? This is the band that went from self-righteous Christian pose rock to psychedelic schlock pop without batting an eyelash, a band that denounces the blues one minute, then teams up with B.B. King the next. Then they go Vegas-style and now, hey, they’re a “dance” band.
Let’s call a spade a spade: U2 is a shamelessly extravagant trend-hopping corporate greed band.
