Not sure if everyone saw the vid, but EBTTRT was played on the Fireglo Ric 330/12 YouTube - U2 La Plata 2011-03-30 Intro / Even Better Than The Real Thing - U2gigs.com This is awesome because it's my fav of his Ric's and I think this may be the tour debut of this guitar.

Hi All! Bit quite here at the moment, so I figured I'd start a topic about my favorite tour. Zoo TV! So please post photo's and discuss guitars, effects, amps etc. Bradshaw switchers and Randall amps, very different looking rig to that which Edge uses today.

Hi Everyone! Duno if this has been discussed yet, but I've got a big problem with the current setlists through Europe. That problem is: LACK OF NEW SONGS. I don't mean brand new/unreleased songs, I mean songs off NLOTH. They are touring NLOTH and playing 3 songs a night off it. The last show...

Hi All What are the main differences between the Korg A1, A2 and A3? I have the option to buy either an A1 or A3 for around $500AU. What do you think? Chris

Hi Everyone! Looking at these new Vox AC30 Custom Series (not to be confused with the Custom Classic line, these ones are a new addition). Are these any good? I've heard the CC's are kinda shitty. What about these? The sound clips I've heard sound awesome. But I'm confused. The CC range retail...

Hey all, I'd love to know a bit more about this awesome song. Obviously the band came to a point where they decided that the verses would become The Fly and the chorus would become Ultraviolet. What point of making Achtung Baby do we think this occured? Do we have much info on the tune? Chris

Hi guys. Thought the discussion had been a little dead around here recently so i thought i'd propose a topic: Have any of you upgraded your rigs to be controlled by midi controllers like the edge does? i recently did this and i'm loving it! If so, what gear did you go with and how do you have...

Hi all, A friend sent me this today, duno if its been posted here before Must've been done when they postponed the aussie leg of vertigo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VE8C5k12pms

Hey boys/girls! Just wondering, how can i improve my slide tone? I love playing slide guitar, but i can never get the tone to sound nice like the pro's (eg edge, duh!) What can i do to improve the tone? compression (if so, any idea's what kind of levels on my m13 would be good) ? certain...

Hey guys/girls! I've got quite a few guitars now from across a number of brands, and they all have different pickup outputs. The quietest is my Fender Mustang which is super quiet and the loudest is my Gibson LP Goldtop 67VOS, with Tele's, Strats, Gretsches and my Ric 330/12 comming somewhere...

Hey all! lets talk rickenbackers. I've just bought a brand new 330/12. I love it, its such a spectacular guitar and im so glad ive finally bought one. Anyone else got a rickenbacker? Chris

Hey all! I thought it would be cool to have a thread about the infamous HQ flood of 2002 when a heap of the bands gear was destroyed. Any and all info on this topic should be posted here :) What guitars/bass's/drums/amps etc were destroyed? what were their replacements? (i'm not completely...

Hi all! Just thought you guys here would enjoy these pics that edge tweeted 2 hours ago: Twitpic - Share photos on Twitter Twitpic - Share photos on Twitter The top view pic of the pedal board is rather informative. It looks to me as thought these pics may be from the writing session that...

Hey all! What are your fav U2 intruments? Mine would have to be Bono's black Gibson ES-175's and Edge's Goldtop and Casino Chris

I'm looking at starting my first build soon. Has anybody here ever done it before? Show some pics if you have.... Got any pointers? chris

Hey all, Has anybody here dealt with Rickenbacker? I considered buying a brand new 330-12 recently, until i found out that its up to a 4 year wait with a minimum 50% deposit to order any guitar from them brand new. This is not cool, and what makes it worse is that second hand prices are more...

Ok, living here in Australia, i've never been subjected to the lottery system that U2 have used on the past couple of tours in the states. I really dont understand the reason for it. Its us, the die hard U2 fans who line up from 5 in the morning (or earlier) on show day, who should be up the...

Hey everyone! I just recieved this fowarded email in my inbox and i thought it could be cool to see if anyone here could do it! (i wasnt able to :( ) I havent changed anything, this is exactly what i recieved (enjoy!): Allegedly, this is one of the questions for potential Microsoft...

well guys, the brisbane show is over, and it was sure an amazing show! during zoo station, i came up with an idea to give bono my fly goggles, so i pulled them from my pocket. as bono was walking back from the B stage at the end of Zoo station, i yelled out to him, and he looked in my...

hey all! another one of my "what time" questions lol what time do they leave the hotel in the morning and what time do they tend to arrive back at the hotel in the evening? i'm wondering this because i am going down with a mate 2morow and id really like to know what time because i dont wanna...

yep, on channel 10 again! they spoke to the boys again, spoke to the edge about the sun and he joked about needing sunblock to stop skin cancer! and they reveled that the band are flying in helicopters to anz for soundcheck, i found that very interesting as a certain member on here speculated...

hey all! i noticed that nobody had made a thread to discuss this so i thought id make one :) what do you think will be b-side tracks for either of the new singles to come out? more new tracks? perhaps some "live favorites"? discuss :wink:

hey guys, another one of my wonderful ANZ questions.... where are the boys going to arrive and what time do you think they will get there show day? and what time/where for the rehersals in the days before the show, espech the day prior to the show? i am very keen, as im sure everyone is, to...

hi guys i was just looking on the ticketek website at all the sydney shows. now what i saw shocked me. still, sydney three is nowhere near a sellout. they have only sold out C and D seating and the rest is all still up for grabs. now as a resident of brisbane, i would have loved a second...

hey all... my tickets to the brisbane show havent turned up in the mail :( i got my adelaide tickets the other week, but no brisbane ones yet :( is this a problem? has anybody already recieved their brissy tickets by mail?
