In for x2 GA seats with my fiancée! A tremendous xmas gift :up::up:

I completely agree and think the quick Landlady ending is most jarring on the album. Closing with the symbol crash and a quick fade out gives the impression that the final line of the song – "if the prize is not for you" – is extra important compared to the lines before it. A gentler...

Just subtle enough. I see some Landlady connections to In a Little While, too: If I crawl, if I come crawling home Will you be there? + A man dreams one day to fly A man takes a rocket ship into the skies

Terrific song. There are probably better threads for this, but here's my crack at the lyrics since I haven't seen them posted yet. Excuse my peculiar line breaks, punctuation and indentations (poet here). _____ Landlady Roam The phone is where I live ‘till I get home and when the doorbell...

I completely understand all the moaning and groaning here about a band still trying to score a "chart topper" (as if that means anything anymore) and not "giving themselves over to experimentation like they used to." BUT On each listen of TBT, I keep finding that the "why am I walking away?"...

Love it! Thanks for the link :hyper:

I don't know too much about how defense money is appropriated, but I'm worried that a "quicker, lighter, deadlier force" is what the branches of the military ARE going for these days; this means more expensive aircraft, stealthier machinery that costs hundreds of millions of dollars to...

As for bonus tracks for the DVD, have there been any other shows where they've had extra cameras filming (ie. European shows) from which they could pull videos of songs they don't perform in LA? It wouldn't be that weird to see on a LA DVD: Bad (Live from Amsterdam) Your Blue Room (Live from...

here comes my favorite live cut from the new tour — listening to the Sheffield Magnificent is so so exciting this one sounds grrreat too!!

Decent stream posted on atU2 twitter. Seems to be working for now!

That looks like a really fun crowd—wish I could see them in Vegas! ...this coming from someone who saw them in Amsterdam, Dublin and Boston this year already :reject: U2 fans can never get enough!

YouTube handled the live stream of Barack Obama's health care speech to Congress...I'm pretty sure they can pull off a U2 concert stream :)

Anybody have lyrics up yet? I've been searching the good old world wide web and haven't found anything close to definitive... :sad:

Seeing as there's no country in Europe (because of the small size of each country geographically/population-wise) that the band could tour as heavily as they tour across the United States, I don't think it's fair to assume they can approach "European" fans in the same way they do American fans...

Thoughts about Krueger: I really like the direction they're going in with the director choice this time. Krueger, as can be seen especially his music video for R.E.M. and his work for Springsteen, is very conscious of the interplay between color and music—this bodes well for a tour staging...
