I was vacationing in London back in 1980 and a song called "A Day Without
Me" was blasting over the sound system at the Virgin Megastore. I inquired
as to who it was by and the clerk informed me it was a new band, U2. I
grabbed an armfull of the singles and distributed them to my friends when I
got back home. Anyone ever hear of what happened to this U2 band?

Moral: Always ask who's playing if you hear something over the store system.

None? I have quite a few friends (including my wife) that are into KB. In
1978/9 I had a girlfriend that was into KB that she had her done like KB on
the Japanese cover of TKI. Bonus...she looked as good as KB!
