LOL
"Boy" was my first U2 album too. Highly underrated album. I still play it.
Story teller...no kidding! When they did "Bad" live at Live Aid and Bono went off and turned a 3 minute song into an amazing 8+ minute affair it was just stunning. I don't know how the Edge kept up. Been my favorite song ever since.
