Not a single bullseye in sight

yep...twas the first thing I checked.

it's a U2 release, not a Tarjay one. So much for them selling out.

I noticed this and was very pleased!

Let's just give it more time... perhaps hidden marketing schemes will begin to emerge... like maybe if you stare at Edge long enough, and squint your eyes like so, holding the c.d. at a particular angle...

OMG, I just put the CD in my laptop to listen to it and a pop-up window came up selling detergent....

Joking!

Sula and I were chatting about this this morning. I examined the CD too when I first got it and noticed nothing.....even the plastic wrap is Target-free. hmmmmm

Isn't this a pleba topic?

But it is red and it has a sort of stylized bulls-eye on the cover.

Is that a little airplane on Edge's shirt?

The artwork really is quite reminiscent of the whole theme they've got going with Elevation...red, black, grey, white...with scratchy random geometry thingies. I think it looks quite a lot like the tour book and the DVD artwork.

Yes, that's me. Technical sula

Actually, I wouldn't complain if it had Target logos all over the cover and the disk itself. It'd be that much more of a collectible.

In any case, this disk is a STEAL at $7.00. I really am enjoying it. And who knows, this may be like the Best Buy/DVD thing where they sold it at the reduced price for just the first 2 weeks -- then it goes into wide release.

Target label or not, U2 isn't selling out.

No, you're right; there may still be some of these available.
