Got a U2 'shrine'? Let it shine! Part II

The friendliest place on the web for anyone that follows U2.
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Are you only looking for a brand new copy? Or is used an option? I'll keep my eye out for you. :)

Used will be fine....as long as it plays without skips!

You can always frame the magazines. I know it would cost a lot but if you want to go a cheaper route, Wal Mart sells frames and they look nice and are of good price and a magazine will usually fit in the frames. I do this for all my U2 mags and they look nice and it keeps them protected. :shrug:


As you can see...I have no more wall space :( I have both issues of Time magazine for example. The one with U2 on the cover and the one with Bono and the American flag jacket. They sit in a box :( So do many other magazine and other things too....

:doh: I didn't think of that. It would be one hell of a sight to see, though! All those magazines hung up. :ohmy::crack:
 
I have two more major additions coming to the house.....stay tuned. Two major pieces that I've wanted for a long time!

I've got this hanging on a hook from the ceiling in my office (along with the inflatable Trabant).

These are kind of old pictures but these inflatables look great hanging off the ceiling.

Gosh...I love how you have it set up. Gorgeous. Unfortunately....my basement ceiling isn't so high. But you've got me thinking.... :)
 
U2 BROTHR you are the man! Lots of nice stuff. I was checking out the 'U2 Collectibles' thread on u2start earlier and saw some of your posts. Great collection! I especially love your LP collection.:up::up:

And since I think it would be wrong to come in here and NOT share here's what I've got.

CDs:

From left to right: Boy (2 CD Deluxe Remaster), October (2 CD Deluxe Remaster), War (2 CD Deluxe Remaster), The Unforgettable Fire (2 CD Deluxe Remaster), The Joshua Tree (2 CD + 1 DVD Super Deluxe Remaster), Rattle and Hum, The Fly (Single), Mysterious Ways (Single & Remixes), Pop, Medium, Rare & Remastered, All That You Can't Leave Behind, No Line On The Horizon. I don't have AB and Zooropa on CD. Since we're getting those remasters soon I figured I could wait and just listen to the digital format for now. I have HTDAAB on CD but it's scattered across the house and lost somewhere. I'll probably get Passengers: OS1 for Christmas and will definitely get Under A Blood Red Sky (1 CD + 1 DVD Remaster) for Christmas.

T Shirts:

Rolling Stone Bag:

DVDs:

The DVDs are downstairs and I don't feel like walking down there to get a picture of 4 DVDs. I have Rattle & Hum, Elevation 2001 Live from Boston, Vertigo 2005 Live from Chicago (x's 2. first one got scratched badly), and 360 Live from Rose Bowl. I want to get PopMart from Mexico City and ZooTv from Syndey soon. Gonna be a U2 christmas for me this year!

As you can see I got it at the show in Raleigh. An unforgettable night. My dad and I got closer and we had a terrific time. My Dad and I don't hang out a lot so the show was good for us. I'm always writing about every detail of what happened so I don't ever forget.

Yes....a War Picture Disc LP. The ones with the clear rings are absolutely rare.

Discogs says that the ones with a black ring, like mine, are counterfeit, however, the counterfeit ones are supposed to have inscribed on the vinyl in the dead wax the handwritten matrix catalog number of the black vinyl issue (ILPS 9733). Note...handwritten!

Mine has the run-out groove etchings that are machine stamped.

Regardless, it hangs on the wall :)

The Lemon Remix LP also hangs on the wall.

It's good we share info and pics on the U2 collectibles that are out there. I love it when I see something new I don't have. I enjoy the hunt as well as the treasure.
I have pics of some of my collectibles on my profile page for those of you who haven't seen them.

A huge problem for me is after I've spent a good deal of $ getting the collectibles, I often don't have the funds left
to properly frame them.

Anyway, I look forward to The African Well Fund Ebay auction for some treasures to add to my collection. See ya there!
