Sorry, Darling. I hate to be the one to tell you that those masks are available in the RS.com store. ($10US). God help us....this is the caption next to them:
"If you just want to see his face, these masks are perfect. Mick, Keith, Ronnie, and Charlie are all here in 8" x 10" masks. Each has a wood stick to hold and eye holes."

Someone Mentioned:
"can the media now please stop referring to U2 as "the biggest band in the world"
______________________________________________________________
I know for cryin out loud. They like to throw that in there at times just to not be so "in the norm" as in saying The Rolling Stones are over-all, age or not, the biggest band in terms of money, pull, world-wide recognition, respect world-wide, etc. etc.
U2 never was as big as The Stones. Period. There is no debate to it. Geeze U2 (supposeably???) broke The Voodoo Lounge tours record. And that is a decade later....
Ticket prices are higher and it took them a decade to (who knows, supposeably, still I am in doubt)top a decade old tour by The Stones. They are just catching up to 1994 numbers by Stones Standards.
Give me a break. They are a very big band (I don't know why 100%) but Ok I will give them that. But they never were, and never will be in The Stones League.
And last: Besides all that and aside from all that I have always found U2 to be the most overated band of all time.

Give them another 10 years, Vertigo was their Start Me Up. They are big for the 'emotion' of their music and the general public loves that. |

Vertigo is a great song. I totally dig it. Finally U2 did something they had not done in their entire career. They Rocked! and for the first time in their career I said" Now that Rocks, about time, I gonna buy the fucker".
However,
the rest of the album, while good, does NOT follow that line and is a let down that doesn't really fill you up.
and Vertigo will not stand the test of time as Start me Up has and is now a classic. Also it was not as big of a single over-all.
And Edge has the same freakin whiney, echoey, guitar licks EVERY FRIGGIN SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not a change in tuning or anything. God he is the most repeative guitar stylist ever.
