U2 NLOTH Boxset

[sonnyu2]

Just a heads up that you can get the box set at borders.com for $70 delivered (includes taxes) when you use promotion code BRW5734X. That 30% off code expires on January 21st. There are also other 25% off coupon codes that expire later if you miss out on that. You can find them on various coupon sites. So far, this is the cheapest price I found for the box set.

I think this is really elegant and well-designed. I love the "U||2" graphic; it almost looks like a Japanese symbol. The whole thing is so simple and clean, but seems to have a lot of deep meaning behind it at the same time.

I have been planning all along to get the box set, and now I am really impressed and excited! It looks great!

My fiance loves your interpretation.

She's an art history professor.

And I'm an economist

I'm confused after reading the 5 formats the album comes it. I don't care about the vinyl or booklets or posters, but I want to be sure to get all the new songs. What's this Anton Corbijn DVD? Does it have a new song that won't be on the album, or does nobody know yet?

Thanks! Do you have a link though? I'm at the site and have searched everywhere and can only pull up the basic cd version. Even went thru their entire catalogue of U2 and it's not there.

This signs U = 2 remind me of Joy Division's video Atmosphere where, at the beginning, it says "Joy Division" and + and - above and below it... in white, clean letters.
Anton's work...

Borders link above - it did not look like a coupon was needed to me but there is no reference to the Box -- shows a List price of $94.99 -- and this was the most expensive of the 4 items I found.

If $95 does not fetch the Box Set, I'm outta here!

Thanks It does look like this is the same thing Amazon is selling for $79.99 right now (the list price for Amazons is $95.99 and the box set is the only version with a price that high)

U = 2

What is = ¿
What are U2 ¿
Where is the Horizon ¿

 

[Muldfeld]

I guess the parallel lines symbol is like the heart in a suitcase for ATYCLB or the concentric circles for HTDAAB.

 

[Niceman]

Looks like amazon has dropped to 66.49 as well, BUT they aren't then adding $5 sales tax on top of that which borders are!

U2 and the world of semiotics

 

[dan_smee]

Anyone notice in that email that It says No Line On The Hor I Zon

Hope thats not a will.i.am nod...

Really? I still see $79.99.

 

[Niceman]

Really? I still see $79.99.

I'm in the U.S. where are you?

 

[pepokiss]

Amazon.com = $79.99

Amazon.co.uk = UK$44.99 pounds

 

[Niceman]

Oh, interesting! The price must have dipped and them come back up! My pre-order is locked at 66.49, but a new order placed today would be 79.99!!!

 

[bonocomet]

I'm also in the US and I've had it in my cart as a preorder from the beginning, and i haven't seen it drop any lower. hmmm

LOL! When you get treated like this; it's EASY to be a nice man!

 

[OrARoundabout]

i'm struck at how the "U" and the "2" are made to be made up of the exact same components, the same bars, just arranged in a different order.

sea is sky.

U is 2.

it's all so buddhist.

"U is 2"...

I like that

 

[Rachel D.]

Why doesn't Amazon have the artwork and tracklisting up yet?

Don't worry they will drop it when they actually ship it. Last thing I pre-ordered must have dropped again right as they were shipping mine because they then posted a 2 cent refund to my account.

As for the sales tax issue, Border's has to charge you sales tax if they have a physical store in your area. Amazon doesn't have physical stores so they don't have to charge tax.

That's the point. Unfortunately thats exactly what post modern art is. Neither is correct. Both is correct. Context doesn't matter. Context deos matter. The artist is more important. The Audience is more important. I've been fed this for two years in Art theory. It gets infuriating but its the philosophy of post modernism. You have to disregard meaning to find meaning.

HA!

Art Theory....the great big mind fuck! I've been trough it; 4 years of art school.

Whats funny is that they pump you up with all of this bullshit, you get literally sick from it and it takes another 4 years when your OUT of school to figure it out. What I've learned is that its a 50/50 thing: artist/viewer. Yin/Yang. One is not more important then the other, they are symbiotic....unless of course their your client and are paying you to meet a deadline then you're their bitch.
