Wednesday's Muscial Interlude

U2 Flash Concert 30 Years On

Saw a twitter war raging last week saying that U2 was the most over-rated band of all time.

Maybe, but back in 1987 they were meteoric awesome and this "flash concert" in LA was truly epic.

Best part everyone was up for it but the LAPD, who "didn't lose their marbles". 


The best re-cap of the shoot is here from the UK Globe and Mail of course.

Why to do you make posts about this random shit? Give us something in Charlotte and relevant.

I saw Ashe County Sheriff Dept. tried to fire 3 employees over false charges. That reminds me of Crystal Echert in Charlotte....how about a story, Cedar?

I saw the black cops are backing Kapernigick on his Nike Ad? Your thoughts, Cedar?

Cedar Mouth, you never post about rap and R&B singers. Nigga, you best recognize greatness when you see it and send up a shout out to the Brat, Ski Lo, and KC & JoJo.

U2 is an Irish Band, U2 played some Iconic Hits back in the day and have been accredited with
taking a good position on addressing some big issues for a lot of humans world wide. a large percentage of Charlotte's population are Irish and Scots Irish, Ulster to be more specific. the members of many of today's Charlotte family's are "Carolina Irish" which is a mix of Irish and Eastern Band, Cherokee Indian, with a few other things added over the years. So...for us it's relevant. But you are correct, take a local civil service issue sprinkle it with some racial comments and bam....you've got a topic with 50 comments and a Lot of ignorance. I will admit This is amusing. Good Job Cedar. They may hate you but there still coming back to you. Semper Fi.

How about the 3 CFD firefighters that were recently arrested for Assault on a Female, and one for False Imprisonment? Bet you never do! CFD have to maintain their 1% diversity turnover. They'll be given a pass as usual! One is a popular hypeman for the Charlotte Knights! The other two have been arrested multiple times for the same charge!

CFD is just as bad as CMPD(joke). I got off an airplane at the airport and saw 5 cmpd cops standing next to 12 TSA agents at the scanning station.

ARE WE BEING INVADED BY THE ARMY? 17 units standing around...collecting checks. Meanwhile, North Tryon Division is getting killed on patrol.

5:58 & 6:53 - ok so u showed one link - what’s the details?? Don’t be jealous of the airport

653: The airport has traditionally been where shit get put to keep them out of the way. Dave Moorefield and Mike Harden both work there, as examples of this.

(5:58pm)Response:

CMPD has a cop that assaulted his girl and pointed a gun at her. His name is Danny Brathraite. He is a fat black guy. Worthless officer, but we needed to hire more blacks. He got re-hired...to boost our diversity hire program.

Experienced the same shit with Motown's Willie Williams with L.A.P.D. They put a desk jokey who never spent time on patrol in the chiefs spot to appease the city as a token black chief. That coupled with Mayor Tom Bradley's agenda was a death sentence for white officers careers, while the shuck and jive club had free reign. It's the same in any democrat controlled city, common sense is not a factor in anything.

CMPD has about a dozen cops with DWI on their records. Civil Service members getting locked up is nothing new around here. I agree that the blacks do nothing around the office, except laugh really loud.

No accountability in the Queen city, It's the same with all three Police, Fire and Medic in Mecklenburg. mediocrity is rewarded, If you grind and actually try to put a dent in the sickening call volume they just hand you more calls. While the slacker's continue to malinger and get promoted for their affiliations, cronyism at its finest and if you aren't part of one of their pathetic little clicks you are doomed and dont make the mistake of confiding in ANY of the Admin staff they leak almost as bad as congress.
