For all of the poor schmucks like me who don't live near a decent city, I would suggest going to your local 24-hour Wal-Mart Supercenter. There probably won't be any festivities, but that's where I picked up my copy of ATYCLB on the midnight of its release.

Oh, there'll be festivites at Wal-mart all right -- me squealing and twitching once I get my grubby little paws on the CD!!!!!

Well, i doubt that someone else in this forum could be interested...anyway just in case tonight in Verona there are 2 shops opening at midnight to sell HTDAAB: Fnac (Via Cappello) and Ricordi Media Store (Via Mazzini).
I'll go with a couple of friends of to Ricordi to get the ultramegasuperplus ( ) edition...i hope there's Fast Cars on it!

Actually in Italy Midnight sale is an innovation of the current season and so far in my city (mind that Verona is a relatively little city: 250k people) i've heard of midnight sales for Vasco Rossi (Italian popular rocker), Eminem, Half Life 2 (i mean the Pc game) and now...U2

Anyone know anything about this in Southeast Texas?

What about Kansas City? We don't have any cool music stores like Tower or Virgin here.

And I refuse to go to Wal-Mart for a copy.

Hi there,
I'm new(ish) to the forum as it's a few years since I've been here (in a different guise)
I've been fortunate to get an advance copy of the new limited edition CD/DVD/Book, What a great package, the DVD is fascinating especially the acoustic version of "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" and Temple Bar mix of Vertigo, banjo and all!

My personal favourites on the album to date are "Sometimes...".(surely this albums' "One") which is one of the most honest lyrics Bono has ever written (with a little of the lyric thrown in from Edge perhaps?) and "A Man And A Woman"

I'm always fascinated by the credits and Thank U's on the albums and notice on this one that amongst the the usual suspects and many other Thank U's is one for "Howth Celtics Under 8s". Larry's a fan I'd imagine................

Not sure about the booklet yet, (Larry's hand???) Maybe it will grow on me
Anyway, gotta go and take more time to keep listening to this and to the tape of the studio show from Tuesday................

Haven't seen them perform since summer 03 at the SO opening night so roll on March!!

 

[kennerado]

damn you Bacedge...................

What the hell?! You just hang out in the record store for two hours?


Not that I do that on a regular basis.

 

[bearded morrison]

Hey Martha,
Yeah, most of the time they start lining you up. It's generally pretty loose, but kinda like waiting for tickets. Pretty fun though cause you are all fans and have at least one thing in common. Last time I waited in line for a cd was Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. (dating myself) Got a cool t-shirt in the deal. Every time a U2 record goes onsale I'm out of town. I was on my honeymoon when ATYCLB released.

 

[dsmith2904]

U2 related giveaways and prizes during the event.
