[SunshineyHobbit]

Welllll, I mean if Ishould know it's history,I should know about the music! oh yeah,my sistr is OBSESSED with U2 even though theyre Irish lol i just saw some persons post that said does anyone like U2. Oh let me tell you! My sister has their cds the posters eerything. I turn around there's Bono. I even have dreams of spinning bono heads.

You poor thing! I mean I like U2, but I'm not a fanatic, if you know what I mean. The question about bands in Scotland I think is a good one but I'm afraid I cannot help you out as much, because I'd like to know myself. I only know about some folklore stuff and celtic music. Also everybody talks about Del Amitri, and I'd still like to know who that is and what sort of music. Well, let's see if some one takes pity on us and gives us some answers!!!

Annie Lennox from the Eurythmics might be Scottish, but i think Dave Stewart from the Eurythmics is English. and Oasis might've been discovered in Glasgow, but sheesh! they are English. they come from Manchester.
