Hello,
It arrived yesterday! Yep, I found Propaganda in my mailbox. As said by others, it is a very nice issue. There are some eyewitness reports of various concerts, some small interviews with different crew members (Steve Iredale, Joe O'Herlihy (sp?), etc.), some stuff by Willie about the preparation before the tour and a one page interview with each band member.
Some highlights:
- Willie telling how Bono was doubting that the stage set (with the red heart) was maybe a bit too overwhelming, but when they played a show over the PA Bono became hugely enthusiastic.
- Bono saying in retrospect about ATYCLB that maybe they adhered a bit too rigidly to song structures, that it maybe lost some of its extraordinariness, something they would put back in with the next album.
- Edge falling in love again with the rock guitar.
- Many great pictures!
So hopefully the issue will arrive soon in a mailbox near you.
C ya!
Marty
