Wont lie im a huge U2 fan. the origin to my music life lies with those two symbols first album i ever purchased was How To Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, and i have collected their stuff ever since then. wide range of vinyls to every CD Single since 1987. one i am proud of which is the "Wide Awake In Europe" Vinyl one of the 5000 released on record store day.
