Tracklist announcement timing? - Tracklist Speculation/Discussion

[U2lunatic]

Probably sometime before March 2nd.

I'd go as far as to say that probably even before 27 February

^ Yes, because after 27 Feb, we will announce the tracklist.

I'm pretty sure U2.com will announce it on the 4th...

March 4th...










Just had to jump onto the U2.com is always late wagon.

A small and insignificant step forward might be that the page parked message on nolineonthehorizon.com has now dissappeared and replaced by simple text... cluthcing at straws here. Anyway hats of to the band (and their management) for keeping a lid on things. I guess they don't want people speculating too much about individual songs and would rather people listen to the album as a complete piece.

For a band as public-conscious and market-conscious as U2, they better get their act together this time around with the website. If U2.com doesn't go through a major overhaul, they are--to be very honest--extremely stupid. It's really the one area where U2 has not figured out (or hasn't tried) how to be the "biggest and best".

We haven't

Go look on U2.com. Do you see one? No, I didn't think so. No release date (either radio or retail), no formats, nothing. Yet we've ascertained from other sources, such as DJs, that it's out in just a few days. Way to go, U2.com. And some people here have been trying to tell me that U2.com's picked up their game lately.

If their game is to report U2 news in a continuously inept manner, then YES they've picked up their game lately.

Calm down. I was just asking...

Hey, now, that might actually be important! It shows that someone's been working on the web page...which means that it might be up soon!

I said this a few days ago, it does seem strange that there is nothing...

Depeche Mode, a pretty damn big band, launched a temp website before Christmas to promote a new look, tour and album...

I think although U2.com didn't change until late last time it should do a temp look before the relaunch, the HTDAAB colours look a bit daft now...

Well, there was this simple Vertigo mini-site promoting the new single and it also had a lousy flash-game competition I seem to remember.

No more speculation!
