Anyone else disappointed that they chose to stream I+E Paris in 1080p when they have 4K versions of certain songs they are posting permanently?

I'm guessing no one grabbed video of the Zoo TV 1080p stream?

I don't know that it's fair to label Matt McGee some kind of MAGA sympathesizer: https://www.mattmcgee.com/what-happened-with-u2-and-me/ And for the record, he said that his new favorite band is Gang of Youths.

I don't think you can do much to remaster a show shot in 4:3 aspect ratio directly to tape. If it was shot in 35mm film, that would be one thing.

I hope we'll see a torrent of it soon... :sexywink:

DVD, really? Why in the world not Blu-ray?

Sounds like it was not a fun fan experience, thanks to BookMyShow and PhonePe. https://www.businessinsider.in/india/news/bookmyshow-and-phonepe-earn-fans-wrath-at-u2-the-joshua-tree-concert-in-mumbai/articleshow/72755439.cms

If you are a Google Home, errmm, Google Nest user, you can sign up for a free 3-month trial of Sirius XM.

Video has ended. Not sure that qualifies as an announcement of anything...

So, are they just re-doing the U2 themed Sirius XM station?

U2 Radio?

My money is on something like "Japanese photo exhibit soundtracked by U2 music".

I read an article about the 2017 tour screen that said because the "shaders" shielding each LED component are by default black, they had to remove each individual one and paint it gold (or for the tree, silver), requiring them to remove and then re-insert nearly 1.5 million screws. And after...

How is that even possible? The tree image and gold color are painted onto the screen. The screen is not rendering them. Or at least that is how it was in 2017.

I wonder what Matt McGee would recommend to the atU2 staff if he hadn't stepped down from the site.

Maybe they are offering it up to the band first?

You gotta read this story at atu2.com. They've been doing extensive research on the band's early shows, and their efforts turned up a tape of an Aug 1979 Dandelion Market show! @U2

I'm wondering if anyone has the deluxe versions of the Boy, October, War, The Unforgettable Fire, and Achtung Baby reissues, which have the expanded liner notes and essays in the long booklets or hardcover books (from the likes of Edge, Lanois, Flanagan, etc). If so, could you take pictures of...

I too would like it! keeb13r (at) gmail (dotcom)

And Bruno Mars. His 24K Magic tour is going to end up one of the highest grossing of all time.

Perhaps there are updated figures for some shows? Originally, the box score for Paris was reported as $9,421,781, but the Billboard end-of-tour summary gives it as $9,437,998.

Billboard just published an article giving the final tour figures, and there seems to be even more confusion now. https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/8486083/u2-experience-innocence-tour-wrap Neither Pollstar nor Billboard's end of tour summary nor Billboard's individual...

Just wanted to correct the attendance for this show: it was 30,766: https://web.archive.org/web/20180613050506/https://www.billboard.com/biz/current-boxscore

Why are Pollstar and Billboard's numbers not jiving? I would think we won't have any new figures given the last show in Berlin was a make-up date and the total we already received for Berlin was a 2-show total from Aug/Sept. Pollstar Attendance: 927,034 Gross: $126,188,794 Billboard -...

It seems strange that they have been rehearsing a song for so long only to add it to the setlist 3 shows from the end of the tour.
