U2 rehearsals in Turin Part II

[secretly alone]

I thought I heard crowd noise!! But then I just figured maybe it was nearby construction or an airplane or something

Oh well.

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

Is it wrong that I'm already flailing?

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I was wondering if Bono would be at Chelsea's wedding.

and lol at Adam's face in that picture. He looks surprised.

 

[last unicorn]

I thought Bono gave an interview to Italian TV on Friday?

 

[Galeongirl]

Does anyone know around what time that picture was taken? And what time they usually rehearse the day before a show or so?

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

I thought Bono gave an interview to Italian TV on Friday?

Yeah, he did. So either he flew in briefly, and is flying out to attend the Clinton wedding, or he's not going to the wedding.

I read that the interview was cancelled

 

[last unicorn]

Oh no, I was looking forward to that interview.

On the other hand, IF Bono arrives tomorrow (which I think he will), there's still a couple of days time for them to rehearse and they could still record the interview.

I have a feeling that his absence has less to do with the Clinton wedding (I just don't see him heading there and back to Italy within two days), but more with possible health checkups and him just taking it slowly, which should be a good thing.

So I suppose the reports about the band shooting some sort of video in the Torino arena were also false?!

 

[trojanchick99]

We know that the band was there. My guess is they are rehearsing in the arena next to the stadium. Are they shooting video, Not likely but possible.

 

[Steved1998]

I'd take Elevation over A Sort of Homecoming, Drowning Man, Acrobat, Electrical Storm, Your Blue Room, One Tree Hill, 11 O'Clock Tick Tock, I Will Follow, Tomorrow, Lemon, Wake Up Dead Man & Bad.

Everytime I hear it I tear up over its lyrics

*not sure of serious picture*

I'm surprised no one posted this yet:

Maybe it's another fake.

That was in the old thread

Sounds like from one of the 360 shows last year.

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

Streets. *happy sigh*

Shame there's been so many fakes. I don't know whether to or

Nope, have heard almost every Pride from the first two legs, Bono didnt nail the chours like that on those legs. If it wasnt live it might be recorded from the indoor rehearsals.

 

['RoomOnFire]

So the Pride video was fake after all?

 

[mikal]

i want U2 to rehearse today and news of new songs being performed. there, i said it.

Yeah, me too. Hell, I'll settle for them pulling out some rarities for rehearsals. *coughMOFOcough*

 

[corianderstem]

You'll settle for rarities? Damn, you must have some ridiculously high expectations.

 

[Blue Room]

If you say so, thats quite an audio recollection you have! So you have heard what the soundboards for each 360 version of Pride sound like?

Its pretty much confirmed Bono has not arrived in Turin yet, so it wasnt Bono in person and there is crowd noise at the beginning.

On a side note, isn't it amazing how starved people are for info and news. People are actually excited that Bono may have Rehearsed.... Pride???? One of their best moves of the tour was dropping it!! Like the song, but its been done to death and needs a break for the rest of the tour, much like Bullet.

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

Well...I do recall something about Songs Of Ascent being promised to us...

that actually sounds like a legit video.

 

[last unicorn]

What's up with all these fake rehearsal videos?

It's a shame people need to produce and spread stuff like that.

I think we don't need to expect anything real from the band until Bono arrives in Torino.

 

[Blue Room]

Regarding the Streets clip, it sounds like another tape to me. I guess really none of us know for sure. Again, another thing to look at, when U2 rehearses or soundchecks you hear stray chords, drum hits, or talking when the song is finished as they testing/tuning their instruments and discussing what to do. These all just end, like they are a recording. I could be wrong, but what I hear is recordings being played over the PA so far.

Wonderful! Just what I've needed!


On a serious note, however...

Half-smile!
