Awesome.

You've even more consistently kept your signature than I have! I'm not sure I ever recall you having something different.

I did change to a silhouette theme a while back, last year I guess, but that was well before the Superthread days.

I'd have to glue those pics together in photoshop if I wanted to go back to it now. Stoopid one-image rule.

At first I thought "oh my god he remembers my birthday!", but then I realised it's in my profile. Still :love: many times over, though.

Yeah, I've no memory of that.

The Kierkegaard quote has always been in my signature, and usually in red. The LJ and U2VT/U2gigs links have been permanent too. Originally, I also had a G. K. Chesterton quote, but I took that out sometime early last year. But since I've been able to get Serena to make sigs featuring my rail photos, I've been enjoying showing off different trains and trams.

Here is the surf (such as it was) pounding the Knob relentlessly.

That's actually one of the exceptions. The Wikipedia article about the Annhilation Tour stated that it was starting on 20 November 2008 at BC Place Stadium. Since you can't trust Wikipedia, it was wrong about the tour starting there, but since it's on Wikipedia and must be true, it was right about the gig being on 20 November 2008.

The Venus gig and date is the only other one specifically mentioned on Wikipedia.

I'll have to give you some Kuranda scenic railway spam after this...
 
Did I reply to this? I don't think I did.

Heck, I won't notice if the guitar is a bit wrong... he goes all over the place live anyway.

Maj.! When is Phail going to rock out?? You're the droomer, we need to meet in your kitchen (and you can hose off the neighbourhood girls who hang outside and scream).

Yeah, bring your bass and we can piss off my neighbours with a shocking version of Exit at 1:30am. :laugh:

I've improvised my own change in Exit and I think it sounds closer to what he does. I think part of my problem is that I'm just not strumming fast enough.

I was wondering if it was something like that... :lol:




I'm having a love/hate relationship with this whole no-plastic-packaging for the remasters.

I didn't either - I don't think my house is viable for any sort of band meeting cause a) I don't want to scare my parents, b) it's too small and c) it's too far out of the way.

I'm thinking we try and find a place in the city with a droom kit, and I can play the red ones with my very large droomsticks.

(if you watched the latest video from U2.com, you'll get that)

Ah, fair enough. I am rather tempted to say that we should make a shirt with your I <3 My Yacht/Bloody Hell, Aker! picture on the front and the I <3 My Yacht tour dates on the back.

:laugh: U-Wen's lack of a birthdate on his profile is the first time I've been foiled in the making of that list, actually.

The red ones sound better. And probably go faster too. :yes:


(I wasn't really serious about invading your kitchen, by the way!)

Cheers.

So another revision of the list, complete with details on what each date references, in case anybody wants clarification:

2008-01-17, Axver's Backyard (Assver)
2008-02-07, Rapelaide (Bonnie)
2008-02-25, Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein (SuperWinnage)
2008-03-20, Gate 2, Auckland International Airport (Ian)
2008-03-28, Jen's Room, Geelong (Ms 17% Pure Herself)
2008-04-09, Rage Ave, Ruffalo (Mia)
2008-04-25 to 28, Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts (Vazza, and the slowest Superthread ever)
2008-05-02, 8 Hiscock Road, Melbourne (U-Wen)
2008-05-22, Whorehouse Meadow, Oregon (3 months of the Superthread)
2008-06-24, Gay and Lesbian Kingdom of the Coral Sea Islands (the REAL 100th Superthread, and indirectly, Chass)
2008-06-26, Vaduz, Liechtenstein (the 101st Superthread, thought at the time to be the 100th)
2008-08-15, Canada Road, Memphis (Khan)
2008-08-21, Museum Voor Oude Kunst, Brussels (6 months of the Superthread)
2008-09-07, 41°42′34″N 86°53′13″W (Ashley)
2008-09-21, Balzers, Liechtenstein (the 200th Superthread)
2008-10-31, Useless Loop, Western Australia (Our Larry Mullen hate. My favourite Superthread location. And another layer of meaning too.)
2008-11-20, BC Place Stadium, Vancouver (Wikipedia)
2008-11-21, Boring Lava Field (Ali)
2009-05-09, Maxwell Montes, Ishtar Terra, Venus (Wikipedia)

I'm noticing a glaring lack of Andrew and the Musketeers, but I'm also feeling that this is getting too long already, and the longer it gets, the harder it will be to fit on a shirt.
