New U2.com subscriber gift known... sort of.

[bonocomet]

Hmm... guess they don't have everyone there then.

 

[Mrs. Garrison]

i still haven't received my 'u2 duals' from last time around, wth makes me thing i will get this?

 

[Galeongirl]

Did you ever contact Fanfire's failing customer service about it?

I am one year behind on the subscriber gifts. Can choose between the last year and recent gifts each time I renew. I have a feeling I won't be a year behind after this year...

 

[canedge]

My copy of Duals skipped right out of the box. I contacted them and told em about it and they sent me another.

 

[Roland of Gilead]

How does No Line fall to 22 with 2 weeks to go.

[Globo14]

Thanks. Even though a lot of great songs are crudely snubbed, that's still a rather decent tracklist. At least it's not ALL greatest hits.

Excited to hear One Tree Hill.

 

[popacrobat]

So much wrong with that tracklist

 

[Rachel D.]

I was thinking about renewing after Christmas to get this CD, but I don't like the way it's turning out. WOWY and Still Haven't Found are winning over rarities like Electrical Storm, Stingray Guitar, and Hold Me, Thrill Me...?

I know. The fans really failed on this one.

 

[Galeongirl]

I.. just don't get why UltraViolet is in and HMTMKMKM is not. When we already have 2009 UV and no soundboard of Batman.

At least AIWIY and One Tree Hill are still there. I can't believe how low Zooropa is going.

 

[JamietheEdgefan]

I.. just don't get why UltraViolet is in and HMTMKMKM is not. When we already have 2009 UV and no soundboard of Batman.

Yeah, it does not compute. I know it's the subscribers choice and all (they're the ones shelling out $50), but if they are bothered enough to spend that kind of money - when there's not even a tour/pre-sale benefits going on - you'd think they'd have considered things like Ultraviolet being on the Rose bowl dvd just a couple of years ago, and a (now revamped) HMTMKMKM not being recorded since popmart...
I guess this just shows how much more popular some songs are over others
On the plus side, there are still some real gems on there i'm looking forward to, like the EBTTRT remix, One tree hill, Zooropa

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Of all the tracks on the outside, I find it shocking that Hold Me... is so far off the mark at 34th. Not even close to sneaking in. I thought this would of been on everyone's list.
I don't think it is fair to call out Ultra Violet here. It is a 360 gem and it has not been officially released strictly in an audio format ever.
The real criminal here is Elevation. Point your fingers at that one instead.

If this ends up being the tracklist, I'll have 12 tracks getting a ton of play. Not really bad at all.

No, if they are anything like u2 dot com i probably wont get shit.

Im due to renew in feb, just afraid that when i do they will send me "Duals" instead of u22

 

[Galeongirl]

That would blow. For me they give me an option to renew, I think mine lapses in march or so.
If there's no option, I'm not renewing until next year.

 

[Popmartijn]

This is also nice, from the U2.com email I just got:

Once voting closes and the tracklisting is decided, 'U22' goes into production and we'll send all our subscribers their own copy of this limited-edition double-CD which will not be available elsewhere. Presented in a custom-designed gatefold sleeve, this special release includes a handsome 24-page large format book, documenting the tour with insider photography, liner notes and commentary.

I wouldn't immediately call a 24-page publication a book (might also be a magazine), but this does sound a bit like back to Propaganda.

Hey that's cool

I look forward to counting the typos.



Kidding - that sounds nifty.

 

[Mrs. Garrison]

that does sound cool...so im wondering, do i renew now or wait until feb? Maybe they will send me two (yeah right)

 

[chocky]

With the exception of In A Little While, I voted for every song in the bottom 18 tracks

 

[BigMacPhisto]

Basically, the hope is that "No Line" gets in and the remix and "40" don't......the remix is altogether pointless since it's mostly just a backing track (and virtually identical to the studio remix) while "40" is hardly representative of this tour at all (or much of a live track in the first place). Good to see that a lot of the old war horses won't end up on the CDs (Pride, SBS, Mysterious Ways, etc.)

 

[u2boy_nl]

Hm, was hoping they wouldn't send another email.

This means No Line On The Horizon still isn't safe, if there's a lot of people voting in the last few days.

 

[Roland of Gilead]

I have no idea what kind of spread a .04% is, but the good news in the last 24hrs is that No Line increased its hold on the last spot from .03% to .04%.

Maybe we can view the poll right to the end? I thought they would of closed of the viewing access by now. Only 3 days to go.

Well depends on the number of votes, but if the number of votes is 10.000 then the difference between Stay and "40" is only a tiny 7 votes...

Let's say there have been 20.000 votes, then the difference is still only 14 votes...

Stay (Faraway, So Close!) 2.3%
Out Of Control 2.3%
Elevation 2.29%

I'm confused as to what exactly the percentages represent, since people have multiple votes.

[Rachel D.]

How often is "Your Blue Room" played live? Or "Spanish Eyes"? But no, we've just gotta hear WOWY and "One" for the billionth time. This is very frustrating!
