Guess I'm not ready not leave this alone yet — did always wish there was more connection established between U2 and the Beasties, esp considering how great each of them are at networking and building bridges. After a little more consideration, i guess that their links to Public Enemy and U2's...

RIP Adam Yauch. I'm a big fan of both groups and often wished we'd seen them a little closer i the music universe. I know U2 played one of the Tibetan Freedom concerts in the late 90s, still there's much common ground, and MCA may have been the best bridge-builder among the Beasties for that...

i just saw that you wrote F%^& The Fly, haha. Well, it'd be a boring world if we agreed on everything, now wouldn't it?

excellent point. i often think of God Part II and The Fly as cut from the same cloth. The sound, lyrical content, themes, and lyrical style are very very similar to one another. And I love them both

Pumpkin Baby! :wink: awesome job

Thanks! Did not see your post at first; great to see the story here. Gives a whole new significance to this interview, which they recorded the day after I saw them play in Dallas, three weeks ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IOgauSCROM

i always thought that he looked a bit like a lemon. "Lemon baby"? :dance: :wink:

They should send it to you in an email too, I think.

oops I meant "PRESALES" you probably knew that. :wink:

Hey all, I'm a tad behind the curve here. See the mess about the codes reading "used" when they shouldn't, though it's good to see that u2.com are aware of it and working to fix it. Guess I need to resubscribe to U2.com since I bought four tickets for North American Leg 1 already. Do all of...

Thanks, U2G & BC, I don't recall that part of U23D, how odd; thanks for filling me in though. He really is pretty cool. Love the way he's repeating Space Oddity, Bono about Iran, and then Desmond Tutu's speech to himself, as if he's figuring it all out by repeating it... definitely comes...

Good point. U2.com editing... yeah. Though this could be the Zoo Baby's cousin from outer space, will we ever know? It's almost as if he was born along with U2's sense of humor (aka ZooTV) ;-) Didn't realize that he'd been around at Vertigo; he wasn't at the show I saw; someone fill me in on...

Thank you both! Great link U2girl, I look forward to reading in-depth when I have the time. I also just found this on our very own Interference.com! ;-) : Sunday Bloody Greenday? U2, Rumi, & Iran : U2 Interference – U2 Fans, Pop Culture Webzine, & More

Cheers. Maybe his name changes with the tour he's brought along on. In any case, it's good to see him back. Wish they'd do more with him.

Unfortunately I can't read through this entire thread, but thanks for posting the article. I agree that NLOTH is more complex than the last two, and I'm glad that it is. The album may wear better over time than we think. I think they made an extremely poor choice to have Boots as the lead single...

You know the little guy I'm talking about. Originally seen during ZooTV and on the cover of Zooropa, now he's back on the 360 tour reciting Space Oddity and talking about spacejunk, usually right before "Ultraviolet" is played. Does he have an official name? I've never quite known. Seems I've...

genius!

babyface or numb. back to back on the same album. wheeeeeeeeeewwwwww

Thanks, I'm asking around in other places too and will post the answer here if I find out.

bump. anyone?

oy, ok ;-)

Very good film. Loved the part where Edge explained his philosophy for his style (standing in his old music classroom at Mount Temple School) - distilling extra notes from chords to get them to their "purist form" - a lot of guitar fans seem to misunderstand his style and approach. He could play...

Hi everyone, I posted this to the audio/video tour discussion thread, but I think it will get more views and chance of being answered here... If there's a thread on this already, please paste the URL... couldn't find it. Am wondering if anyone can help me find a translation of the scrolling...

Yes, we are hoping for Red Zone. Thanks; planning to take your advice into account and shoot for being there around 4pm (three hours before gates). Cheers.

Hey everyone... haven't been here in ages but I'm a longtime fan going to the Dallas show October 12 and am wondering, with Gen Admission tickets, what has been the rule of thumb so far for arriving early enough to get into the Red Zone? The first person I've talked with has said 5 hours before...
