D'ya reckon going into the record store the day of release, not night,will still grant me an album?
yes but it's nice to be able to stay on top of the rumors. i dont take this as an official news thread...but it once was about alan cross and the rumors there, and artdirectors source, etc. it just sucks to have to wade through 50 pages of the same stuff.
Man, people are angry.
I'm 30, old enough to remember when you actually had to wait to buy the CD in the store at midnight... I remember getting it for POP.
And you know what, that's better.
We are actually ruining this for ourselves.
The anticipation is the fun part... after you've heard it (format doesn't matter) you can never hear it again for the first time. After only a few listens it's still not "brand new" U2.
That is my point.
I wish there was no leak so I could wait... enjoy the build up... look forward to March 3rd U2 day...
Like anything you love, you always want more... but it's like saving a piece of candy that you can never get again to eat at a later date... sure it will taste great today... but after that, it's gone.
You know what would be fun for me? Logging onto interference and knowing the status of the leak without having to wade through pages of bitching/puns/musings. That would make my day.

By this logic U2 should just release the album at the end of time

No they have picked a date to bring it to the world. And in the past that is all we had. No we want to it before they want to give it to us...
I didn't say end of time. It's less than a month away.

Then either create an "official leak thread" of your own or check Sicy's updates on the top.
Actually leaks are better. They can come at any moment, so the unexpectedness of the first listen adds to the euphoria. In this day and age when most of us listen via mp3-devices, Cd sleeves are pretty much obsolete anyway (and the sleeves of the last 2 U2 albums were hardly anything to get excited about.) I bought POP at midnight too, and experienced HTDAAB through the leak. Of both experiences, I'd rate the first listen of HTDAAB higher. And when I finally bought a hard copy later, the sleeve was pretty lame.
Well personally I'd rather hear it now than in a month. I'm as hyped up as I'm going to be. I mean we've been waiting four and a half years. There's no difference in anticipation between getting it today and getting it in a few weeks to me
If it leaks, I'll freak out the whole time it's downloading (if it's confirmed to be real) and be a complete fanboy during the first listen
If it doesn't, I'll freak out the whole time I go to and back from the store and be a complete fanboy during the first listen
Doesn't matter to me
No more leak threads.
I wanna hold the case in my hands
marvel at the booklet
read the lyrics
feel the reward of a long wait, real style
I can't do that with a leak
so, still no leak, right?
I kind of agree with clerks...
I'm 22, been a fan since I was 10 and the first album release that I was aware of was Pop.
It leaks March 14th, people. All this talking is a waste of time with a month still to go.
That'd be funny, album is released and everyone loves it so much they forget to upload
Isn't it true that the second it leaks that you'll update the thread at the top of the page?
