Hello all. My name is Tim, and I live in Grand Rapids, MI, and am originally from Buffalo, NY. I have been enjoying this site for a while now, and find it to be a completist geek's dream. It is well conceived, organized, and user friendly.
I have been a U2 fan since around 1983, when a buddy turned me on to War. I am part of the apparent consensus in that Achtung Baby is probably my fave, while counter-cultural in that I also dig Zooropa a lot. The experimental and maverick side of U2 is what made them so interesting to me, which they have, alas, traded for "Biggest Band in the World" status. I suppose I am substantially a product of my generation's Postmodern sensibilities, which has its advantages and disadvantages.
But I digress. Cool site, and thanks for the service.

lo sabias? The song 'The Electric Co.' is about electric convulsion therapy, which was given to mental patients in state hospitals. It happened to a friend of the band so they wrote an angry song about it.
