Simple minds or u2?

[Ste1969]

Seen both bands live maybe 30 times .. uk, europe and the usa.

Both are great bands live, but who is the best.. ok simple minds went a bit shit in the 90's and 00's but they still kick ass live.

U2 went onto bigger things with the big stadium tours in the 90's till now.

The fact that Kerr is not an annoying bellend shades it for me

U2 better songs but Bono is a complete dick, illegally download U2 songs and buy simple minds greatest hits only, knob rot gets no money but you get some fine tunes, Jim Kerr gets a little pocket money, morally the right thing to do

Simple Minds on every front. Vocals and song writing are a matter of opinion but the Edge is a shite guitarist and Mel Gaynor is an awesome drummer. Jim Kerr is a twat, but not as bad as Bonio. Adam Clayton is a shit bass player.

As a kid in the early 80s it was Simple Minds but for sheer persistence U2 "edge" it for me.

Don't you (forget about me) and it's association with The Breakfast Club defined a period of my childhood. I have no such affiliation with U2.

tough one, if I could I'd let it go

Wow that's a tough one with U2 being exceptional and Simple Minds being distinctly average.
