Alright, so I like U2 a lot, but not to the point where I know what a beach clip even means.

Honestly, what the fuck is a beach clip?

Are U2 just playing on the beach all summer or what?

I'm not trying to be funny. I seriously don't know how the beach clip thing works.

Someone inform me.

Thank You.
 
A beach clip is when the band have been performing live on the beach with their fake tans, wearing only speedos and thongs jamming beach boys tunes.
 
The last time I tried to watch a U2 beach clip (cos one of the earliest ones was a video) Mum thought it was porn and I was banned from the computer.
 
^ no it wasn't i remember which one he is refering to, the one where a guy/girl records a video of the band playing a song and it was from a window but you can't see the band. if i remember correctly it was the windows in the skies. Then after that video hit not too long after we got all the 2006 beach clips!
 
You guys are so mean. Not even responding to the OP's question. :mad:

So I think the deal is, Bono/U2 have a beach house in Eze (South France) where they do recording/hang out a bunch. Since pre-HTDAAB, people have been hanging out at the beach there and recording various shit Bono blasts from his stereo, I suppose to promote the new album because he's so damn proud of it. This then results in crappy quality MP3s with intermittent noises from ocean waves, the cooing of birds, and excited gasps and random talk from the person that's recording, which everyone at Interference goes apeshit over when they hear. That, my friend, is a beach clip.

very nice summary.

btw, I still prefer Miracle Drug with waves in the background.

lol, nicely said.

I got the chance (by mere coincedence) to record something at that beach. Never thought ppl would get so excited over some wave-noise, me talking, crickets cricketing and oh yes, some vague U2-ish sounds in the background ;)
