i voted u2. cause i don't particularly care for aerosmith. i just find areosmith to be annoying. Over the MANY years, they've had some good songs, but they've ridden this career out too long.


and u2 is good.

 

[Macewindu77815]

U2!

 

[FatBurger]

Definitely Aerosmith. I've never been a big U2 fan.

 

[Sign Of The Fish Burger]

Stickied!!

 

[DJ B.K.]

U2 easily.

Also, Blackwasp, you forgot to make the poll public again. Did you miss the announcement on that?

I was still pretty tired this morning after seeing a show at Bogart's last night.

U2. Aerosmith is a bit boring, IMO.

And "Bad" is a darn good song.

 

[Links234]

I like them both, but Aerosmith has influenced so many bands (I'm sure U2 has, but not as many and for not quite as long).

 

[theFijian]

No contest, U2.

 

[psalms 91]

aerosmith

This is a really tough one...

On one hand, my childhood crush (Steve Tyler... yeah I know I had issues as a child ) and a band who I have loved and listened to for years now

and on the other hand, U2, who just plain our rocks my socks



I need to think more

 

[blackwasp]

I've never cared for Aerosmith. In my opinion, they are a rip-off of the Rolling Stones, and I don't even care for the Rolling Stones. I don't like U2 as much as most people, but they still get my vote.

The epitaph tour right?

 

[mark53]

Both are great bands. But, I voted U2!

Why? Because they have changed their style to be honest with themselves as a band. (some of which i have not really liked!)

World wide U2 successes have been more greatly received. In Australia U2 have been extremely successful.

U2's stand on many issues have endowed them to Christians (not often Evangelicals) and non- Chritians alike.

The epitaph tour right?

Correct sir. I'm not too into the punk/emo thing, but I do like a couple of Matchbook Romance songs, and my friends are really into them. It was my first experience at Bogart's, and I wasn't aware that they checked your pockets and patted you down at the entrance. (I had pens, pencils, and highliters in my pocket due to a test the next day, and they confiscated all of it and threw it away. ) The venue was a little bigger than I expected (and I don't know how it sold out), but there was a good view from pretty much anywhere.

Back to the discussion at hand though, how is the U2 and Aerosmith battle this close? I'll probably never say it again, but go U2!

Yes, Go U2!!!

I don't understand either why It's so close U2 is heaps bigger than Aerosmith. Have people not heard "with or without you"? or the new album? what about Achtung baby or the joshua tree? Although Aerosmith have some good songs, U2 is more successful than them by far. Yes

If U2 looses this round, I'll be very angry

 

[KristianJ]

Definitely U2 - any other vote would be...well, for the other band...

 

[Mary of Bethany]

U2

What are you measuring success by?
