How Many U2 bootlegs do you have?

[I'm Ready]

[Irishteen]

I have 2 New years day at the point and 79 in Cork

 

[Yahweh]

about 100

 

[youtwohearts]

I have about 8 older ones from Boy-Joshua Tree. Cork Connection still being my favorite. I also have lots of concerts on tapes.

Oh I also have an 8 CD set of live songs, a singles box set which was around R&H, Elevation on CD, ultra rare tracs (which are live songs that they normally don't do like Tomorrow) and I have another couple of CD's of mixes and stuff like that.

How many is that?

 

[bridgit]

I stopped counting long ago. It's really embarrassing sometimes.

 

[2861U2]

A few:

ZooTV from London, 8-11-93
ZooTV from Dublin, 8-28-93
Elevation from Cleveland, 5-3-01
Popmart from Sarajevo, 9-23-97
Lovetown from Dublin, 12-31-89

[AtomicBono]

I don't have any CDs but I've got some on my iPod that I've downloaded. 1 JT, 5 ZooTV, 1 Popmart, and 5 Vertigo. Not very many if you ask me.

Can I just say that I'm very envious. I had a bizarre car fire (I'm fine!) in 98, and my best U2 boots (on tape) were in the car and ruined. I've decided that one of my goals now is to get one great boot (DVD or CD) from each tour. Any of you with great collections, I'd love ANY copies you could make for B & P. I would promise to pass them along myself.

Any thoughts? You can priv mail me at jonathanflax at comcast dot net - Thanks for even considering it!!!

In particular, looking for one great UF, one great Zoo, one great Popmart.

Thanks AGAIN!!!!

[typhoon]

I'm picky:

1 Boy Tour
1 October Tour
1 War Pre-Tour
2 War Tour
5 Unforgettable Fire Tour
5 Joshua Tree Tour
4 Lovetown Tour
4 ZooTV/Zooropa/Zoomerang Tour
8 PopMart Tour
1 ATYCLB Promo Tour
6 Elevation Tour
2 Vertigo Tour

Plus some odds and ends (Live Aid, Save the Yuppies, Super Bowl XXXVI halftime, etc.). So about 50.

 

[Zooman91]

about 100

How can you keep all of those straight??

7 is enough for me.

 

[bono_man2002]

I have the Entire Elevation Tour, (thats In Mp3 though)
Most of the shows this tour (that have been torrented)

I have the Bloodredsky catalouge

 

[blueeyedgirl]

I've got above 5, including Pink Pop festival 81, My Hometown- Croker 85, and a 79 Cork one (cassette from good old Camden Market), and I reckon I listened to them about 6 times when I first got them and never listened to them again.

[beau2ifulday]

I've got about 800 in total. I've got all the Elevation boots, all the Boy boots and then just a whole mixture of the rest of the tours.
I've had to stop though because i've run of of harddrive space

It becomes stupidly addictive :/

 

[Eliv8]

About 80 on CD & 30 on DVD

 

[Aardvark747]

Lots - cd and dvd. ZooTV I have the most of tho.

 

[tiny dancer]

Only five.

 

[randhail]

I've got about a solid dozen or so.

 

[Sicy]

Around 100.

 

[bridgit]

Okay, I counted them. 223 different concerts.

 

[U2alli]

i have about 200 or so....it became an addiction a few years ago but now im content with just getting the shows i was at .

 

[Yahweh]

I have my favourites of course and these days I go based on recommendation which ones to get because you litterally need Terrabytes of space to keep up with all of it lol

 

[Bonochick]

I only have a handful. As far as bootlegs go, I'm more interested in Ryan Adams ones, so I focus on those. I mean, I'd love some more U2 ones, but as far as actively pursuing them, my energy is better spent on Ryan, since I'm more active in that trading and also use the bootlegs to transcribe the banter for my web site.

 

[neutral]

215 audio, about 60 video. Running out of disk space though.
