YKYOW you're listening to the Pittsburgh Penguins game on the radio and you barely hear Elevation in the background (I could only make out the tambourine at first) but you know it's Elevation so you say "That's Elevation!!!"

I watched some of the NIT Tournament semi final game that UW played in and I heard Elevation play in the background :) I thought of this thread!

Hahaha! Elab, please! In what context?

YKYO when I was on the youtube front page a couple of days ago and saw "...superstars Bono and Green Day..." (something for a Broadway awareness thing, I think). Hello? Bono is with a band called U2!!! And who even know the name of the Last GD guy anyway: BJA, Mike Dirnt, and the drummer who looks crazed when drumming  :o   :P

YKYO when you find a flyer on your front door for Elevation Church for an Easter egg hunt and wonder if they will play U2 tunes during the festivities.

YKYO when you attend a friends fundraiser for their kids softball team, and your not planning on staying long, but land up staying till the end because the band they had playing for two hours had half of their set consisiting of U2 songs.

YKYO when you running home to check is there anything new in News and Rumors thread

YKYO when standing in the middle of the shopping mall listening some U2 song that is on speakers coz this is the best place to hear it. And then another song comes, and you are still standing there and hoping that there won't be another one coz you are late for work.

YKYO when you walked by a co-workers office and hear a U2 song is playing on their radio, so you go back and stand there moving to the beat, and he looks at you like you're weird.

When you check your 6th grader's map of the U.S. where she had to fill in the states and capitals - and she added MONCTON correctly! (But mixed up Iowa and Ohio) Hmmm, maybe we'll just use the mapping website of U2 concerts by the decade for geography lessons!

LOL that's awesome! I use that strategy sometimes myself (especially with European cities)!

. . . When you open the mail at work and find a flyer for a seminar titled Stranger In A Strange Land, and the rest of the day that song keeps going through your head.  (In case you wonder, it's a seminar  about multiculturalism and the court system.)
