    Try this the next time you listen to Achtung Baby

    Remember that (if I'm not mistaken) the "album break" between side 1 and side 2 on the AB cassette (and probably vinyl) version came between "So Cruel" and "The Fly," so those two songs are necessarily meant to "flow" together. Though it feels "right" to listen to them on the CD as they are...

    easter eggs are killing me, please help

    You don't really need to do that "1-9-7-6" thing, at least on my DVD player (it didn't work, anyway). The first Easter Egg (disc 1) is found at Title 3, Chapter 1. I just pressed "Title select" on my (Toshiba) remote and entered this information, then pressed play. There's probably a "title...

    DVD Easter Egg Updates?

    cainz: those instructions didn't work on my (Toshiba) player. After a few maddening days trying to get either of the eggs to work, I finally figured it out (for my player, at least; if you're having trouble with the other instructions, try these): On disc 1 (the Elevation egg): The easter egg...

    Total Elevation Setlist (to date) Compiled...

    I'm not sure if it's even enough to qualify as a "snippet," but at many of the shows I've been to Bono and Edge allude to Radiohead's "Creep." Just before the house lights get turned off and the "A mole/living in a hole" part, Bono sings, "won't you tell me something new/I believe in you" then...

    Where's the 'Beautiful Night in Cleveland' boot?

    U2Achtung had it up for a while; they've replaced it with two MSG shows. Luckily, I downloaded the Cleveland show (which sounds AMAZING) before they took it off. I don't have a CD burner or I'd burn it for you. I do have a ZIP100 drive, so if you have a zip drive you could send me 2 ZIP100mg...

    Pictures from 11/2 Philadelphia (Rob's)

    Hey, it looks like we were across the heart ramp from each other! You can see (some of) my pics here: http://photos.yahoo.com/acorn15 under "U2 Philadelphia." And, no, I haven't had a chance to upload any more pictures yet. I'll see what I can do this weekend. I should have some good ones...

    my Philadelphia are now up

    Sorry I didn't get to post more pictures last night; something came up. I'll try tonight, but no promises. Sting2: I'll try to post as many as I can, especially if I see any with the "cooler lid sign" (which I saw and laughed at: "All I Want is 1 Guiness Backstage"), but I'm not sure how much...

    my Philadelphia are now up

    Hey STING2: Where were you (and/or your friend) standing? As I said, I have around 150 more pics from the show (most of which didn't turn out, but many of them are only slightly blurry), and I can send you the ones you might be in. I'll also post some pictures from the GA line tonight when I...

    my Philadelphia are now up

    (er, that should be "My Philadelphia PICTURES are up"... sorry) Hi, all! I just finished uploading some of the pictures I took at the Philadelphia show last Friday (11-02-01). We were standing along the rail on the outside of the heart, Edge's side, so I got some good pictures of the stage...

    " God have mercy, I'm a hopeless guitar player"

    Arun-- Nah, nobody looked pissed or angry at all! Bono had an expression more like an actor who just came out of a great improv routine that worked. (Relief, maybe?) As I mentioned, he said "I thought he could play" with a bit of a "playful apology." They weren't upset at all...

    " God have mercy, I'm a hopeless guitar player"

    Arun-- I haven't seen this anywhere else, so I'm not sure you know, but just after you were taken backstage and everyone was still reeling from the experiencee (great job with the lyrics, btw!! i loved that!!), Bono went over to Edge and leaned into him. After saying something I couldn't...

    Hamilton Photos

    Thanks, Kev! I considered taking my digital camera in with me, but I decided I'd rather not have mess around with it and just enjoy the show. For the Philadelphia show (my last of this tour), I will take it and document everything I can (stage setup, GA line, etc). In the meantime, if any of...

    PROBONO?

    hey, were you at the Cleveland show, right in front of the stage on Edge's side??? if so, I'm the guy who stood next to you and helped you get your heart bracelet on. did you make it to any other shows? I'll be in Hamilton (GA!!). If this isn't that person, then, uh, never mind. Great...

    Was your car in a magazine?

    Not a magazine, but my car was in a movie once. (_Wonder Boys_, with Michael Douglas.) For that matter, _I_ was in the movie. There's a scene where Michael Douglas leaves a Howard Johnson's (after sending Tobey Maguire's character off with his parents) and drives home to find a huge party...

    I need advice from a u2 veteran!

    The GA's didn't COMPLETELY sell out. They always hold off a few to release closer to the day of or on the day of the show. DON'T go for the eBay tickets! I repeat, DO NOT pay ridiculous prices for tickets anywhere. I suggest you post a message here and any other boards you use, because once...
