The Boomtown Rats

[Boomtown Rat]

Personally, they're tied with Pink Floyd for my favorite band of all time.  

Amazing band, I just wonder why they're so under appreciated, mostly in the US.

The only CD here I've actually found wasn't even released under their label, it was a "20th Century Masters" remastering of their tracks, and while it is good, if I wanted to get one of the Boomtown Rats remastered albums, which run about seven to six pounds in the UK, it would cost me $26.

Yep, I'm a true Boomtown Rats fan (even if I was born after they broke up), so I know what it's about.

The Brenda Ann Spencer [attempted] shooting at the school across the street from her house in San Diego, CA in 1979!

We in the US do hate the Boomtown Rats just Bob Geldof

Heh. Maybe Geldof should have stuck to what he was good at.
