Name The Album You Just Bought

[u2popmofo]

Yay for spending $60 for two new songs!

 

[Zoots]

popmofo, you bought U2 albums???

 

[u2popmofo]

Of course. Rip off way to cash in on past efforts or not, how could I resist?

 

[Zoots]

Oh I don't think they're rip offs or anything but I just didn't think you cared about U2 much anymore. lol.

Bought- The Best Of The Stone Roses for only £2.99 of Play.com

 

[U2inUtah]

Boy, October and War; same as mofo.

I really had no problem paying 60 bucks, I think the packaging is cool, it sounds great, and their are a lot of b sides and live songs I didnt have.

I don't listen to them very often any more or study each tidbit of information about the new album in Everything You Know is Wrong, but my house is covered in U2 posters and other paraphernalia. They're still my all time fav. group whether I'm listening to them or not (or have issues with their recent output or not). And with how many cds I collect of far lesser bands, how could I not still splurge on these?!

UiU, I like the packaging/booklets quite a bit too.

[Cooper_Pariah]

The Fragile by NIN. The only album by them I don't have. And I got it used! Which means the people at FYE didn't give me shit for PA label cause it wasn't there!

Oh the memories of days when I had to go to different stores to get Parental Advisory albums...I eventually learned which ones would sell to me and which wouldn't. (I've never had a Best Buy ask for ID if you have one around you)

[Popmartijn]

The postman made me very happy today:

Various - The Complete Motown Singles Volume 2: 1962

And I heard from my dad that the U2 remasters boxset from Amazon had arrived at their door. Unfortunately, it seems I have to pay some import duties/customs on that one. Still, it'll be about 40% cheaper than buying the albums here in the Netherlands.


P.S.:
Doe Maar - Skunk
