Whats the special announcement tomorrow?

[lemonfly]

"Hi, I'm Adam Clayton and I'm here with some tips to cooking the perfect turkey. Edge will be handling the cranberry sauce and stuffing. Larry will cover desserts and green beans. And Bono's got yams."

I actually love the idea of a U2 cooking show. McG will be the one tasting their culinary efforts, and when they tour Edge will trade the beanie for a chef's hat.

It's the secret, fan-club-only album and tour. They will play back yards and living rooms next year.

I am so out of the loop i didnt even relise, what about the rumoured toilet tour they where planning for fan club only?

 

[chrissybaby]

^ Bono mentioned it a few times to various fans during 360. Can't help feeling that he was flirting with us though and just thinking out loud.

 

[mysterious_jen]

This better be good, it has sparked my interest enough to come back here for the first time in ages and to even consider logging on to u2.crap tomorrow morning... That fleeting ohgodmabeyitsnewmaterial feeling. Im sure my hopes will be crushed along with my breakfast cornflakes.

 

[cobl04]

Jen!!!!!!!! hope you're well.

There is no way it is something good

Spoiler

though imagine if it was

He best not have been, I really was hoping to have my private toilet gig just before leaving for work in the morning!!

"This thread is entertaining, everyone is being funny and the conversation is on track - no talk of backyard / toilet tours or other albums..."

And it's gone - YouTube

 

[mama cass]

am very much looking forward to seeing the aftermath in here later though

Sorry

 

[mama cass]

oh yeah i forgot - i'm not a current U2 dot com subscriber anyway!

well, i'm glad i'm going out!

 

[KUEFC09U2]

I just cant see how this would be an announcement, i mean wouldnt they say "special announcement" for fan club members? and not "something rare"?

 

[LemonMelon]

What's rarer than a new U2 album? A dodo?

 

[cobl04]

A doduo?

 

[KUEFC09U2]

What's rarer than a new U2 album? A dodo?

Cannot argue with that, just dont want to get my hopes up,

 

[dan_smee]

The email does say be the first in the world to hear...

Does kind of indicate the rest of the world will hear it soon after...

 

[nielsgov]

I can't help but get a little excited. God damn.

 

[dan_smee]

Same - and it would definitely be different to let the subscribers hear it first

 

[nielsgov]

I'm no subscriber but it's just as easy to follow it on hear. And a lot more funny.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Same - and it would definitely be different to let the subscribers hear it first

I wont even get to hear it as i am out between 8pm and 9pm grrrrrrrr

I'm starting to wish that I was a subscriber. After 360, I decided that I'd rather give money to Interference than to U2.com. But I'm tempted to re-subscribe today. Also, I might need it for presales in the next year and a half or so, and it would be nice to be in the first presale group again.

Of course, if I re-subscribe, they'll play the Pride remix, and if I don't, it will be a live concert playing the entire new album and then the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein setlist.

 

[God Part III]

I'm curious if they realise what kind of hype that they're actually spreading.
Naming it "Thanksgiving Special Audio Broadcast" and all that.

I'm prepared for massive disappointment, but even U2.com can't be that out of touch with its community, right?

I'll be happy so long as it's U2, and not Tiesto.

 

[God Part III]

Of course, if I re-subscribe, they'll play the Pride remix, and if I don't, it will be a live concert playing the entire new album and then the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein setlist.

In other words, please don't subscribe for the sake of the rest of us

 

[digitize]

I re-subscribed. What have I done...

 

[God Part III]

Let's discuss how great the music we will never hear is.

I for one think it's their best album since NLOTH.

 

[mikal]

Do when it's this Pride remix going down today?

Do when it's this Pride remix going down today?

Plus or minus ninety minutes

 

[purpleoscar]

It better not be a hoax by Henry Rollins

 

[mama cass]

seriously, i refuse to get remotely excited by this news, you know what they're like pffffft

Eno's the waiter.
