    SOE 33: Bono to open the batting on new album, Larry to keep wicket

    No critique whatsoever, I was genuinely curious as I did not understand. The explanation makes sense though and of course I am happy about the generous share.

    SOE 33: Bono to open the batting on new album, Larry to keep wicket

    Felt irritated after having them copy Volcano yet again during American Soul, but seeing that some lyrics of Iris have now been re-used as well, thinking whether this is done on purpose (rather than just being lazy) to come full circle as part of the Innocence-Experience flair..?

    SOE 33: Bono to open the batting on new album, Larry to keep wicket

    Just for my understanding, why are these leaks always lacking in quality? 20 years ago I would have understood, but today there's a guy with a CD and rips it to mp3.. ?? :hmm:

    Edge Deluxe amp is coming soon too!

    Could well be, I'm not saying he never used Fender (Blues Jr. has been on board since ZooTV e.g.), but what I mean is that I associate edge with a cap, an Explorer and a Vox amp. :) It'd be just as strange as e.g. Line6 having an Edge Echo Edition (EEE sounds awesome by the way). When I think...

    Edge Deluxe amp is coming soon too!

    I understand why Edge is having his signarure series and special editions now with Fender, but still: Special editions and signature guitars should be linked closely to what you associate with an artist. And when I think of Edge, I don't think of a Fender Tweed but VOX to start with. Edge just...

    Pre-orders for 2016 Fender Edge Stratocaster

    Not sure what to make of this. Very standard strat (21 frets?) w/ Edge's signature and double the price of what you'd get it w/out one. Let's wait for the official announcement.

    Did Bono ever sing "can you (see the beauty)" in falsetto, on CoBL live performances?

    And if I remember correctly you'll also find it on the Chicago DVD and also Brooklyn Bridge. As said, anything past Leg 2 he stopped for the most part.

    Did Bono ever sing "can you (see the beauty)" in falsetto, on CoBL live performances?

    Take opening night for example: https://youtu.be/RSiWfke4HDs?t=2m52s

    Did Bono ever sing "can you (see the beauty)" in falsetto, on CoBL live performances?

    Yes but only on the Vertigo Tour and mostly 1st leg, I think he switched here and there already in Europe and it got lost sometime after that. Check out some footage from first leg you'll surely find examples.

    Shooting/Terrorism in Paris

    Ouch. Even though Al Qaeda might have seemed like the Mickey Mouse version of what ISIS is pulling off today, saying they were "still rooted in Islam" is just wrong. Political or not, nowhere in Islam does it say "hijack a plane and fly into a tower to destroy innocent lives"... Al Qaeda seem...

    Bono's Vocal Range

    Amazing how some think 2001 was a low?! :ohmy: He sure had problems, but that crack and grit he had in his voice (listen to "Kite" live performances) were majestic. I can still hear him shout "the goal is soul" and boy, soul he did have. I loved his voice in 2001.

    Which 'Warhorse' needs a timeout from I&E

    Fair enough, "lazy" is the wrong word. I appreciate a little bit of a sing-along, they did the same during 360 w/ Still haven't found... but to do that for an entire song, especially the closer (!), I'm not too fond of.

    Which 'Warhorse' needs a timeout from I&E

    Some of their warhorses sound as fresh as ever, they'd be crazy to drop IWF, Pride, Bullet or UTEOTW on this tour. I agree One and Still Haven't Found lack spark but that is not only due to the setlist position but also Bono's lazy sing-along. I am equally happy with WOWY on this tour (which...

    TICKET DROPS Thread II

    Took the 280's as soon as they were offered, no nerves for GA luck + was around 60th in line so really the odds of getting better tix was very slim. Tomorrow will be even tougher methinks.

    TICKET DROPS Thread II

    Is anyone from this thread currently infront of MSG? Wanting to hear how the line there is? I'm still putting all my hopes on some last minute price drops on TM or stubhub that are sort of acceptable...

    Okay, obvious nothing's gonna drop online and resales are also not going down in price. I'll go to MSG now and see if quequeing makes sense to get any sort of pair ticket...

    So, 5 hours to go and no tix. This is more thrilling than being James Bond.
