@ anyone who would like to participate!

Bono on stage at Nassau Coliseum, 1987

I will never understand the mania for making AI slops of people you supposedly admire aging 40 years in real time.

And of course the original picture is most certainly NOT from 1987. I know this is just a rock band but please consider what else you've seen and believed was real over the last year or so. You need to look at those "middle parts." Case in point below.

As someone, who like many indepth and faithful fans of music and bands, takes a great deal out of their day each day to just sit and admire the pure beauty of someone, and their slow and gradual growth, throughout time, in their visuals and their music, i fucking hate these videos and just any AI generated content of any band or musician or just anything, in general.

I hate that a simple 10 second video that took no effort what-so-ever to make, takes the pure joy and love out of the hobby that is enjoying a band and their musicians for what they are.

I personally LIVE for and LOVE the long extensive journey of going through countless photos, and biographies, and interviews and texts, even going all the way to new countries just for legitimate resources, anything, just to admire and learn more about the bands i love and the music they make, specially if they are new to me. But i would never go looking for some AI bullshit that just sums it all up in seconds and makes it look messy and horrible, with false information. I mean, truely, who even is that bloke next to 'bono' in the second photo-

To the people who use AI for creativity, Just put the effort in, even if its some shitting slideshow or something with accurate information and a small array of still photos, if you want to share your love and your journey with your bands, at least it would show you did some research and didn't just count on a code mining the internet for information thats just going to be mashed together and put down wrong-

Photo from the book Kevin Davies / U2: In Camera 1991-1997. Kevin Davies can be found here.

Not sure how I survived the 90s as a sentient being with Bono looking like this, but in fairness the early 90s were boom years for interesting/hot musicians. It was only as an older woman that I realized Bono was indeed the best of them in all ways. <3

My new vinyl setup and yes, the U2 inspired decor was totally on purpose.

This makes me want to buy a house, just so i can do beautifully wonderful things like this, in it-

It's not Christmas till Edge rolls his eyes! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate, and also to those who enjoy the nice lights and the time off.

This is literally the dumbest thing I've ever posted. :)

A miracle occurred! Bono joined the traditional Christmas Even busk for the Dublin Simon Community for one song: "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)." It was already livestreamed but it might be available to watch later.

Stunning Bono

Thank you, Lord.
