Actually, Jonman has Bon Jovi...I have the Cubbies. All you have to do is be a member. Go into your profile and choose no pic next to "personalized picture". Below that there is a box to check that says "I have my own pic", check that and put the address into the space next to it. then click on save changes at the bottom or it won't work.
This is the address to the pic I use.

Subject: Re: SIMPLE MINDS HITS?
I think I would be happier seeing Simple Minds than Inxs in concert. I'm sorry, but without Michael Hutchence, it simply isn't Inxs to me. :)
Subject: Re: SIMPLE MINDS HITS?
How about "Sanctify Yourself"? That was always a favorite of mine. :)

Subject: Re: SIMPLE MINDS HITS?
One of my favorite Simple Minds songs is "Promised You A Miracle."
Sounds like a good show even though INXS cancelled. I saw them on the 'X' Tour in '91. It was a great show.
Subject: Re: SIMPLE MINDS HITS?
"Ghostdancing" and "Oh Jungleland" are also good...

Subject: Re: SIMPLE MINDS HITS?
"New Gold Dream" and "Up On The Catwalk" are two of my favs that still haven't gotten mentioned.. I'm sure if you go to see them you won't be disappointed.. I have all their albums (though some still appear to be vinyl only) and while they're popularity seems tied to the theme from the Breakfast Club, they were a solid group before and after that (incidently, it's one of the few songs they didn't write themselves).. they were never really happy about it from what I had heard, since the album that followed it doesn't really sound like any of their others
Subject: Re: SIMPLE MINDS HITS?
Once Upon A Time is another favorite Simple Minds song. It's also the title of the album that gave us Sanctify Yourself, All The Things and Alive and Kicking.
Subject: Re: SIMPLE MINDS HITS?
Now, I know this song isn't on the list below...but I have the 12" to "I Travel" from '79...
Very hard to beatmix due to the wavering of the tempo...great song though...
