U2
have
been
around
in
the
music
industry
for
quite
a
while
now
but
they
are
still
enthusiastic
about
music
and
are
ready
to
give
young
bands
a
run
for
their
money.
Snow
Patrol
frontman
Gary
Lightbody
said
that
U2
have
great
appetite
for
music
and
still
want
to
kick
ass.
Gary,
whose
band
is
currently
touring
with
U2,
said
that
Bono
and
his
bandmates
still
have
the
competitive
spirit.
“They
are
still
hungry
to
compete
against
younger
bands,
bands
that
are
just
coming
out.
They
want
to
compete,
they
want
to
be
relevant,
they
want
to
kick
ass,"
The
Sun
quoted
Gary
as
telling
to
Vicki
Blight
on
Absolute
Radio.
Gary
is
all
praise
for
U2,
saying
that
they
gave
lots
of
advice
to
him
and
his
bandmates
unlike
other
bands
they
toured
with.
“Sometimes
you're
lucky
to
get
a
word
out
of
a
band
that
you're
playing
with
but
U2
have
taken
us
under
their
wings.
You
learn
an
awful
lot
in
there,"
he
added.
