Magnificent cover picture

[Edge_Orchestra]

Hey Edge-O it does still work Some browsers freak out when you try to open a very large pic. Try right clicking the link instead and saving it to your computer instead of just clicking the link.

I was able to open it, finally. I have been sleep deprived. Maybe just did something wrong or maybe the aforementioned browser issue?

Listening to the Magnificent remixes right now. Not a huge fan of remixes. (Not the dance type like these). SO how are these? Fine for what they are. I'd still rather get new tracks for B-Sides.

WOW, I love the shirt Edge is wearing!

Bono looks cool too, but these days Edge is standing out more, to me!

 

[Freefall]

MAGNIFICENT!!!!

I want Bono to grow his hair...grumble, grumble...face looks so square now. (Bonofox, don't you think we women like it when our men don't mess with their hair?)

But I've heard equally as many that love that his hair is Popmart short.

But assuredly, each of the ladies has their preference of what version of Bono they love most. For some it's long hair leather vested JT/R&H Bono. Others might prefer short-hair Popmart Bono. And yet others, Fly spectacled ZOO era Bono. And lest we forget, Aladdin Sane Mullet Bono.

Either way, he's the same Bono - a good guy that sings songs we love and does lots of good things for people less fortunate.

Long hair, short hair, no hair, I'll take Bono anyway I can!!!

There's a new teaser video up on U2.com.

Behind the scenes

At the end, Bono hits Edge with his elbow when he's making a gesture!

Can someone download it? Seems I cannot open it. The site asks me to download and then does not download anything.

 

[Bonogirl777]

Downloading right now!
I'll try to get it up to YouTube.

it says it's failed because it's unable to convert the file type.

 

[Bonogirl777]

Ok, hold on. Trying it again. Now I think it'll work.

 

[last unicorn]

Thank you!!!

 

[Bonogirl777]

You're very welcome.

 

[last unicorn]

And did it work?

 

[Bonogirl777]

No. Sorry.
Maybe someone else can try.

 

[Edge_Orchestra]

No. Sorry.
Maybe someone else can try.

I am signed in at u2.com but the "Behind the Scenes" video doesn't seem to be working.

Arrrrgh.

 

[Bonogirl777]

Hmm, no it isn't. I downloaded it to my computer before, though. I just can't get it to YouTube.

 

[last unicorn]

What file type is it? Maybe you can just upload the file to ysi or send the video via mail or pm?

 

[Bonogirl777]

Uploading to send space.

It's working on U2.com, but it's really slow and very tiny.

 

[Bonogirl777]

Here it is!

And why is Bono on bended knees??? He's the frontman for the band, and yet he is the one in the lower position in this photo. Is there some biblical message in there?
.

Clearly: 'If you wanna kiss the sky, Better learn how to kneel, on your knees boy!!

 

[Bonogirl777]

Poor Edgie!

Thank you so much!

Seems my first instinct was correct? Looks like The Edge is toting a Gretsch Irish Falcon in the Magnificent video (I saw this in the Behind the Scenes bit on U2.com). The one he has doesn't have the writing on the pickguard. But Bono had a few without "The GOAL is SOUL" that I've seen in Fez recording era pictures.

So is the guitar Bono's or The Edge's? Not certain. But it wouldn't be the first time that The Edge has used one of Bono's guitars for a video shoot.

Other examples?:
"Night And Day" - Bono's late `50's red Chet Atkins
"The Ground Beneath Her Feet" - Bono's blue sparkle Gibson ES-175

Adam is using his Gibson RD bass. Another, until recently, rare siting.

Looking forward to seeing the final product/video.
