My name is Fabian, I live in The Netherlands. I'm seventeen years old, which means I'm a student at High School.
My father introduced me to U2 by playing All That You Can't Leave Behind in the car and I was kind of obsessed with Wild Honey. I was about ten years old.
When How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb came out, I started to discover U2 a bit more and in 2009 I visited an U2 concert for the first time in my life: Amsterdam I.
My favorite albums are Achtung Baby, How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb and The Joshua Tree. For me, October is crap, but I haven't listened to it for two years. For example, I don't know I Threw a Brick Through a Window anymore. Should I listed to it? Perhaps I should.
I'm also interested in Coldplay, Snow Patrol, Adele, John Mayer and Graffiti6.
Welkom!! You'll find yourself addicted to the forums in no time; in the meanwhile, try to enjoy the rest of the website
You should listen to October again soon, it might not be a masterpiece but it isn't a bad album either! Rejoice, I Fall Down, Gloria, I Threw A Brick, Tomorrow... All are great songs that deserve being appreciated by you more often

PS. Great snippet you've chosen to present yourself! Sympathy for the Devil
Obsessed with Grace but disliking October ?
That's impossible
Seriously though, October is worth a shot, it grew on me too.
(Btw my first U2-concert was a day after yours)
