    Bono Calls for Humility in the Age of Trump

    No, I think you misunderstood my reference. My post concerned the author of the article referenced (and linked to) in the first post above, not the article/interview with Bono that is posted on U2.com. I am totally fine with the U2.com piece as well as with what Bono had to say (about gaining...

    Bono Calls for Humility in the Age of Trump

    I would say that U2 were inspired to make it great again. The lyrics certainly fit the occasion and anyone who has closely followed the band and its ideals (not just the sound of Larry's drums or Edge's guitar) over the years would know that they had to speak up.

    Bono Calls for Humility in the Age of Trump

    Sorry, this article came off a lot like someone telling Bono and U2 what to do and how they should view Trump. It was also written as if America is Trump and reflects those who voted for him and their values with very little mention of those who voted for another candidate (or that there were...

    Tour merchandise

    I do like the style of U2 I&E logo shirts (I picked up the army green as there was no L for the blue) but I also got the Boston shirt. It's not fancy but simple and to the point and is the best souvenir representing that you were at those particular shows - and I was lucky to be at all four...

    Boston #4 setlist party

    Agreed - I saw all of the Boston shows and had no problem at all with One, especially when it was followed by 40 : ) And as far as varying the setlists, I think like almost all of their tours, there is a core element that is a "show" where the new album is conveyed along with other elements of...

    Red Zone

    I had all kinds of problems trying to access on the computer. I had RZ tickets the moment they went on sale and then TM froze and booted me out. I think I tried to purchase RZ tickets about 50 different times (always being booted out) before finally succeeding 75 minutes after they went on...

    I am still trying - failed about 20 times for RZ ready to jump out a window. I HATE TM

    The Miracle Radio Play

    I think the Mircale is a harder, more punk sounding song than what may normally be played on Hot AC (although I am no expert in this area) and certainly more so than Ordinary Love. I view it a bit like releasing the Fly first from AB - they hit the rock stations first and never really got any...

    Album 13: Are We Gonna Wait Forever?

    I guess that's the downside to being the best ever at what they do :D

    Bring U2 to Boston in 2011

    Go Carter Alan! Make it happen! BTW - the second Gillette show was officially listed as a sellout.

    NLOTH Singles Chart Watch

    OK, 1M more might be stretching it, but it would have definitely sold more with Magnificent as the lead and a strong media tie-in from Apple. The BB blitz with Crazy was too little too late (would have helped the 360 tour in the US, but it was already sold out).

    I agree with this entire post (and its long!).

    2010 Leg Announcement on u2.com now - TOUR DATES - Part II

    They will. Boston is their home away from home and a guaranteed sellout.

    I hope this is just a joke. I was blown away when I saw the setlist for the first night. Wow is all I could say.

    Chicago, Toronto, Boston, and New York - PRE-SALE - All Discussion HERE

    Atu2 says they have to wait until 12noon so Horizon gets a two-hour jump. I wonder if anyone has confirmed this?

    Should we be worried about decreasing record sales?

    Thoughts on this topic: 1. Taylor Swift had the top album for close to 10 straight weeks before U2, but she was only selling 50k per week to hold down #1. U2 sells almost 10 times this and the album is criticized for underperforming. 2. As many mentioned, Bomb was released during the holiday...

    Who longs for the days of getting tickets from Propaganda?

    U2 360° Tour - General Tour Discussion Thread

    I am biased, but Boston always has amazing energy. Its their "home away from home" and is always a great show. However, the stadium is not downtown, so the drive is a consideration.

    VIP Packages + (RED) Zone Auctions - All Discussion HERE

    I think the complainers should take their fight to Larry. I am sure he would be thrilled. This time, its not people mad about not getting GAs, its people who are upset that their position may not be as close to the stage because U2 has the audacity to offer some of these tickets at auction for...

    Beer lines at Stadiums. A solution.

    Here is my policy on GA at a U2 show - no drinks beforehand; no drinks if just outside the heart/ellipse/spider on the rail; definitely have a beer or two if I make it into the heart/ellipse/spider; have more than that if I am stuck at the back by the soundboard.

    VIP Packages + (RED) Zone Auctions - All Discussion HERE

    I like the idea that it is sponsored by (RED) and a portion of the proceeds will go to charity. The Field in a stadium is a big place so I don't see the harm. Personally, I would rather do the (RED) area than the first price level in the lower stands. For those piling on U2, you have to...
