So what you're saying is "the problem with their trying to blend X with Y is that they DO end up blending X with Y." What's wrong with that? I'd rather see U2 take a stab at technofying their rock than have them join the already overcrowded tent of pure dance music. Ashok onnow - Spooky "Gargantuan"
