U2 makes a Video..Has anyone actually seen it??

[BonoFox1]

I know MTV has been advertising it since last Thursday or Friday
but everytime it is supposed to show another program comes on...even though U2 makes a video is scheduled....
Someone said that MTV had pulled it..cAN ANYONE CONFIRM THIS?..
I have been waiting with tape in machine and remote in hand and nothing!!

It hasn't been shown because it probably doesn't exist.

 

[BonoFox1]

Well the false advertisement sure had me going crazy!....

 

[RademR]

it's be taken off the mtv scheduling, its not going to exist. I dont even know if it ever did. So much total shit on MTV, they couldnt squeeze in half an hour of great music.

MTV's Making The Video is usually reserved for teeny-bop acts, so they probably figured U2 was too old for their target demographic so they axed it.

I think this is not an accurate assumption

elevation was a making of the video special a few years ago, so i dont see why they'd cancel vertigo, unless of course it included the good u2 vs bad u2 plot that was supposed to be it at one point? I think. but then it wound up being a performance video.

i think.

Isn't the "Making the Video" part of the bonus DVD that comes with the album? Maybe U2 or, most likely their label, decided to not feature the program on MTV in order to entice fans to buy the special edition version of the CD with the bonus DVD.

Iremember a few years back they did a "making of" with the Red Hot Chili Peppers - if U2 are "old", I'd consider these guys old as well

This is just slightly off-topic, but... Do you know what I find absolutely disgusting? Friends of mine who hate U2 (but are fans of the RHCP) use the excuse of "U2 are too old" to justify their disapproval of the band. It's completely absurd! Anthony Kiedis is the same age as Bono, I think... I know he's 40, at the least.

Um, maybe U2 didn't deliver the necessary footage? I'm not taking MTV's side, but this is a possibility. The Vertigo video was a week late.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

"u2 makes a video" has never been advertised by MTV. it was placed on their online schedule, and then taken off. no advertisements were ever run on the actuall television channel, and not once has this show been brought up on u2.com.

i still haven't even seen the regular video - is that even out yet?
