Personally, I feel that Thin Lizzy is much better than U2. Phil Lynott beats the piss out of Bono. Thin Lizzy in my opinion is the best band from Ireland, although many people will (mistakenly, IMO) give that honor to U2. |

Me I like The Pogues and The Cranberries. Quote:

Heck, I would vote for Dropkick Murphys over U2

| | | 1st choice - Them
2nd choice - The Corrs because the 3 sisters in the band are so pretty and talented as well.  |

I just can't listen to TL for more than one or two songs at a time. I am a big admirer of the Edge.
