As I have told you I had no idea they were going to publish my translation or that they were going to insert a hoax in it (the translation was originally for another web), I have let them know I'm not happy with the situation, but I post here regularly and I thought I had to say something, even if I don't feel guilty in any way because everything was done without my permission or knowledge.

i think, just like U2Miracle.com, U2Valencia ultimately suffers damage to their credibility after something like this. you would never see Interference, @u2, or U2start pull pranks like this.

the June thing is real, thank God!
no, the website basically made up a story that Bono told fans that the album was going to be named "Outland".

That sounds like good news.

Maybe. Do we know for sure Lillywhite was confirmed to work on SOA ?
No, just speculation that started because Bono and Edge were there before Christmas, and so was Steve.

Twitter, possibly the 21st Century's lamest invention...
I thought the band was in Dublin right now ? Bono and McGuiness gave the last *album news* interview a few days ago in Dublin...

Yes, I would assume they went back home for Christmas.
I *think* the latest confirmation we have that they were in NYC is December 15th, if I'm not mistaken. Lillywhite was there around that time as well, but he went back to the UK for Christmas, too. Today his tweet said he's on his way back to NYC, no idea if Bono and Edge have or are gone/going back. The most recent Bono/McGuinness statement is from Dec. 26th from the Boxing Day horse race thing Bono attends every year.

I concur. Every time I see the Snuggie commercial where they do "the wave" on a set of bleachers I cringe.

I was in Sam Goody and they now have Snuggies with your favorite music and sports stars prints on them.
If there had been a U2 one it would have so been mine.

I would have welcomed a Snuggie at the show last September. It was frigging freezing up in the nosebleeds at Gillette.

I reckon 'Pilgrim's Lack of Progress' is a great title, I would sure love to hear the song though. (despite the acronym: PLOP)

I know what you mean - not just the album titles can be a mouthful (especiall HTDAAB... too many consonants. it's a chore to say it (not to mention to play it... ba-dum ching! i kid, i kid...).

I think Bono might be in France right now.... playing loud music...

A quick thought: someone voiced surprise that U2 would even tentatively commit to an album date/time frame with the tour already booked. I actually think this might be (if they stick with June) the best thing that can happen to the new album. The last decade has been the decade of completely open-ended album making. No real pressure from studios (like in the early days) or to fit into tour schedules. Just taking their time. I think we could see some really creative and great music come out of this if U2 are working under the gun--even if they already have most of the album completed. No over-thinking, just inspiration and album release. Could be interesting.
