[chrissybaby]

Brilliant news.

 

[RoKKeR]

Wow, amazing stuff. Those are going to be two incredible shows. And to have them on film with the HBO shoot still happening? God damn, what an amazing treat.

 

[domo-kun]

i am happy that it's not totally canceled like other bands' concerts.

Yes, same here. This show is going to be amazing. No matter what.

What if they play Grace 22 times?

 

[Mack_Again]

What if they play Grace 22 times?

that is not acceptable

 

[domo-kun]

Shit!

You got me. I hate that song.

 

[Galeongirl]

Nobody would remember that the show has even happened as they all slept through it, so it wouldn't count as a show.

As long as they snippet Stand Up Comedy, Peace On Earth and Wild Honey, it'll be epic.

You're all some sick bastards!

Stop helping grace across the road like a little old lady

 

[Mack_Again]

but you guys are fine with When I look at The World, right?

 

[kabigon]

I don't think I dislike any U2 song apart from Elvis Ate America, sorry haters

I'm pretty much the same way. I'm also not a big fan of Big Girls are Best, but it's mainly just the lyrics I don't like.

I can acknowledge GOYB and SUC, for example, are VERY inferior to songs like One or Stay. That doesn't mean that I don't occasionally enjoy a listen to GOYB.

Who wouldn't want to hear the best song of the album live?

I have been digging New York again lately too - another great song that deserves more than one tour

Any thoughts of what the best sounding bootlegs are from this tour so far?

oh you want the audios?

 

[dan_smee]

There's an IEM/aud matrix that sounds great from Chicago - can't remember which night, but it had California/ ordinary love on the b stage

It was the last night, Chicago 5. And yeah, the quality is pretty good for what it's worth.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Yea for my money the Chicago IEM/aud mix is the best one thus far

 

[ChargedVT]

From another forum...

"Sam Sullivan today confirmed the 'news' that next years Europe tour plans have been cancelled pending an album release."

These Dublin and Paris concerts might be the last U2 shows for a loooong time ?

U2: The Band Who Forgot How to Multitask

Damn. I wanted some more shows, but at least I have some time to save!

 

[mikal]

I'm OK with this news.

If it means a faster album release, then I'd say it's fine too.

Wait for a quote from Edge in about May saying they are "just having fun seeing where the music takes us" and have no deadline.
In all seriousness though, they will struggle to have this album done in the next 9 months, we all know that!

 

[dan_smee]

I am more confident - if they weren't very sure they would finish it, there is no way they would abandon the tour

Some never learn...

While I agree with you in theory, this is U2
