U2 PRE-SALE FIASCO

In light of todays events with regard to the U2 Vertigo tour 2005 the band have taken the extraordinary step to placate fans by releasing a special limited edition of their current top selling album HOW TO DISMANTLE AN ATOMIC BOMB.

The album (now titled: HOW TO DISMANTLE A U2 FAN-BASE) features all new versions of the tracks to commemorate this historic pre-NO-Sale and comes with an all new lyric book.

The Track-listing is as follows:

Limbo
Ticketmaster bug
Sometimes you can’t make it through a pre-sale on your own
4 GA tix or else!!!!!!
Shitty pre-sale leads to fights
No tickets because of you
A Fan and a pre-sale
Crumbs from your pre-sale
One step closer to blowing it
Original of the faeces
Nah-Weh
Fast Buck

An example of the newly written lyrics for this commemorative album is as follows:

LIMBO

Unos dos tres catastrophe!!!!

‘Turn it up Sebastian’

Site goes down, it’s dark
There’s turmoil in your head

You can hear your heart
You feel a dread so much stronger than
you thought ,Your eyes are wide
And you sold your soul
It can be bought
But then you start to wonder........

Hello, hello (f*ck that!)
I’m in a place called limbo (ticketbastard!)
I can’t refresh the page as you already know
Can you please help me someone?
I can’t Fail, Fail !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This site is full of holes
As the touts steal the tix
to sell for gold
They laugh as the
Boys play rock and roll
They know they can sell
And take our souls

I can’t stand this page
Would you rather take a cheque?
The girl from ticketbast*rd
Will have my hands round her neck
Listening to the bullshit
Listening to the bullshit
Ooooon Hold, Ooooooon Hold!

Hello hello (F*ck that)
I’m in a place called limbo (ticketbast*rd)
A pre-sale code that they say they do not know
Can you please help me someone?

I can't fail!!!, Fail !!!!

site-failure
Oh yeah
Hours of fun…

*Sebastian Clayton vocal* :
none of this, none of this will be yours
none of this, none of this will be yours
none of this, none of this will be yours
Just give me 40 bucks for nothing in return….

Hello hello (f*ck that)
We’re in a place called Limbo (ticketbast*rd!)

I like it!

I might actually even buy that album.... :wink:

However, "Limbo" is a Steve Kilbey song...interestingly enough a rant about a bastard of an industry type who ripped them (The Church) off. Some sample lyrics from that one: "Jesus does not love you; Lucifer does not want your soul" hmmm...fits ticketbastard/U2.com too. :)

Hey! I copied this down from someone who first posted this in WIRE...I was going to post it..

Was that someone in WIRE YOU?
You know, we should sing this version at the show, instead of the band's version! And if anybody on here actually got GA's, I wonder if they'd dare to pass Bono a lyric sheet.

I wouldn't.

PS I admire anyone who can LAUGH about this situation.
