    Norman Oklahoma u2 setlist watch party

    Live from Oklahoma: 3rd show for me this tour. In line now. Red Zone. Only about 40 in line here. Regular ga line goes on and on. Black tarps cover both upperdecks. One of two reasons for this: 1. Upper deck at OU is very steep and very tall, tallest i've seen and the sight lines could be...

    MERGED-->Omaha GA Discussion

    Line wait in Omaha: No Way! My wife and I drove up to Omaha last night, and I think for the first time there is no way I'm waiting all day. Its 26 degrees and more importantly the wind is gusting at 30 miles an hour right now. I can't see doing that for 12-18 hours. I just feel like by...

    Will we hear Fast Cars in North America?

    I know it's not on the official US release, (but it is on the box set) but everyone I know loves it, and it's instant catchy fun. Live it could be a huge kick.

    Week seven: Vertigo radio report

    Once again, no movement. Curse the formula!!! If digital sales counted at all this thing would be top 20. This song has sold easily over a 100,000 downloads, and not one of them count! Alright, week 7 finds vertigo once again stronger, but no higher: 32 again. Hot 100: 32 Modern Rock: 1...

    U2 is NOT a Metal band!!!!

    I feel like this needs it's own topic now, as many of the folks who are down on the new album seem to feel it doesn't rock enough. I'll stick to my formula I always pull out for this. (And please don't blame bono for your issues, the man has suspect abilities for descriptions of his own work–we...

    Track by track battle! Only one can win!

    Will HTDAAB be "the third masterpiece"??

    First off, yes we haven't heard it all. But this is a U2 board, we're supposed to speculate. And we have heard a lot. Like, almost half. I'm going to make a case for it to be the lesser of the the three masterpieces, but still on the top of the mountain with the big 2. (AB and JT) 1. Vertigo...

    HTDAAB will hit #1 in the USA because...

    I think U2 have a better than good shot of hitting number 1. My reasons: 1. M&M isn't in their catagory 2. D Child isn't in their catagory 3. Vertigo is healthy, if not fantastic, on the charts (but certainly better off than BD at this point. 4. Download sales are very, very good. 5...

    Simple proof that U2 is Universal

    Saw this at Amazon, made me stop and think that its rare to see fans with such different tastes agree on this one awesome band: Customers who bought HTDAAB also bought: * Around the Sun ~ R.E.M. * Vertigo Pt.2 [CD-SINGLE] [IMPORT] ~ U2 * American Idiot ~ Green Day * Everybody Loves a Happy...

    HTDAAB pre sales - looking good

    The new album has moved up to #6 more than a month before its release on Amazon! This is amazing. So my question now is, do these sales count towards week one? How are they factored in?

    Vertigo: Digital sales

    It's been posted in other threads, (by me and others) but I think this now deserves its own thread. Now U2.com is reporting that not only has Vertigo occupied the top spot on all the major I-tunes charts in the last week, but is now saying it set a record for one week of digital sales in the...

    MERGED-->stage design drawings, plans, speculation

    STAGE DESIGN: How would you draw it? If they start in arenas, I think that a center stage setup would work well for them. My thoughts: • center of stage rotates • four zones of general admission • four screens that don't block site lines for upper deck • two satellite "vertigo stages" 3D...

    U2 #1 on I-tunes and issue of tracking digital sales:

    Title says it all. I'm thrilled U2 is currently #1 on I-tunes, but was curious if anyone knows how/if that kind of thing is currently figured into the hot 100–and if not, doesn't that make it pretty incorrect? Digital downloading is getting to be big biz and I wonder what changes are coming to...

    Power of Interference:

    Is anyone else starting to feel the power this community holds on media, fans, and maybe even the band? What's going on here will blow the last tour/album away. Interference to me is what an online community should be. It's among the best there is. Kudos to the band for dropping a line and even...

    It's like a powder keg going off all over the world

    Can you believe it? When was the last time a band was able to keep single exposure under wraps until the last second? Yeah, the street date got kicked by a few hours, but man, hats off to management for keeping it underwraps until now. It's like a powder keg going off all over the world now...

    U2 has two albums in top 10 Zagat survey

    These guys have 1000 times the credibility of Vh-1 or Rolling Stone Magazine. It should come as no shock that their list is a good one. It's comprehensive and well researched. Only blemish is no Stones album in the top ten, but hey, they tend to be loved by their songs and not the albums. Not...

    Question for all Illinois chicago U2 fans! Very Important to me!

    I figured who would be better to ask this question than a bunch of cool U2 fans? I am going to Chicago in Nov. for a concert. No, it's not U2 (obviously) but it is Peter Gabriel, someone I have waited my whole life to see. (Get his new CD, it's unlike anything you've ever heard, not exactly...
