Re: Your favorite U2 era
I did see them in 1983 when I was sort of young (22).

[QUOTE=MBoyd;10827543]Here you go. This settles it. Achtung, Baby and Zooropa are the Zoo TV era. I will be buying the deluxe set.
Ditto. I'll pre-order this puppy the moment it's listed.

Re: Your favorite U2 era
wasn't even born
Starting with "All That You Can't Leave Behind" I could start enjoying their new music again, though for me it's still well below the 1983-1991 run.
The U2 in the 90's was not my U2 with the crazy costumes, wearing makeup, & dressing up in drag in some videos. The Discoteque video really turned me off with the village people attire.
I bought Boy, War, and October after All That You Can Leave Behind and got back into U2.
I wish I listed to Boy when it originally came out but I was too young then.

Re: Your favorite U2 era
I love both Joshua and Achtung, both have a place in my top 40 albums of all time. But I would go for the Zoo TV era because I was a bit older then and it was the first time I really could really immerse myself into U2.
Sadly I've yet to see them live, the only time they came near me since 1987 was in 2001 and I couldn't get off work that evening.
