Who would really put magnetic hill on the map U2


I attended the two major concerts on the hill. The Rolling Stones and the Eagles.

As far as concert going goes you can’t get much better. The Rolling Stones was a great success. Their music has stood the test of time and today still rocks. Like the Beatles, performers are interpreting Stones songs not only because it’s a sure shot hit but the musicianship is there.

The Eagles were my childhood musical heroes. I remember going at my cousins and listening to Eagles live over and over. I fell in love with “Seven Bridges Road”. Unfortunately they didn’t play that song during the show. Nevertheless this was the best sounding concert I have ever attended. No wonder these guys have been making music since the mid 70’s.

I haven’t attended any of the country shows for my own reason’s please don’t feel offended if I don’t’ include them in this text.

How could we top any of these acts in Moncton. Is it even possible? You’ve got two of the best bands in the last 40 years.

Maybe a Led Zeppelin reunion. Oh man that is just a dream but it would rock and have such a diverse crowd.

How about Metallica. Yes that would make many of my friends very happy.

How about U2. Well, let me tell you, not many bands could bring as big a crowd. In all honesty I have never heard someone in my entourage say that they dislike the band. Bono rocks. He is the epitome of stardom and showmanship. In the end though the songs speak for themselves. Fan favorites like “One”, “With or without you” and “Where the streets have no names” speak to each and everyone and can be easily attributed to a moment in ones life.

I’ve heard rumors lately that U2 is a possibility in Moncton. I surely hope that is true. An I hope the hill can accommodate the many fans.
