I liked the NPR blog post the other day, about "What is your most important college band?"
For me, solely based on friend memories, it was U2. Trips to DQ,
listening to bootlegged live album tapes, Toronto, Bono-love, buying the
awful Pop album on my 21st birthday...all very U2. Lemon. Lady with the
Spinning Head. Some of my best college memories and friendships were
forged over that music.
Other artists I'd associate
with college? Bush and Collective Soul. Smashing Pumpkins. Green Day.
Pearl Jam. Sponge. Bram Van 3000. Radiohead. Natalie Merchant (not a
band, though) and BTE somewhat.
But yes, U2 would definitely be it.
