Still holding out. Although now that I've made it this far, the last week and one day feels like it'll be a snap. I'm not worried. :)
 
:wave: Hi guys

I'm another one still holding on. :D No temptations been put in my path today although I AM NOT listening to radio one over here at all this week, as the little buggers are going to be playing the new stuff on there *shakes fist*. I do however want to watch them on the culture show and jonathon ross show, what are the chances of the new stuff being on there? :hmm:

While surely mine won't take that long to arrive, I did order the box set from them. I've been considering going out on release day and buying a CD so I don't have to wait for my Amazon order to arrive. :reject:

I hear you. I am still clean myself. One more week to go. However, I'm worried about the radio. I was lucky to learn that they will be on BBC 1 at 7 p.m. on XM 29. I will be in my car due to work obligations, so I can now make sure to avoid that channel as I am sure they'll be playing new songs.

One more week now, no sweat. I had my temptation in the garden on Saturday night, I passed it without caving, so it's smoot sailing as long as I can avoid an PR stuff.

Still haven't caved, although I came very close. :lol: I was on MySpace, and thought about checking out their page to see what showed up. I could only see GOYB listed in the player, so I closed out of the page before anything else popped up. :lol:

Waiting for the actual CD will be so much better! :yes:

Wow, what resolve!

I would've just caved. As soon as the announcer said Magnificent, I would've been like "fuck it, I gotta hear it".

I'm hangin' on, like the horniest of virgins, the eleven songs are like my eleven sexiest women in the world sitting naked in a spa and begging me for me to do oh such wonderful things to them, but for some reason, I'm refusing to have a bar of it...

Still hanging on by my very fingernails. :crazy:

U2 will be all over the radio and TV in the UK this week but I'm determined to come to this album fresh so I won't be listening in or watching.

I will however be taping everything though.

. . . I'll be relying on lots of lovely people to post links to all this stuff so I can watch and listen after the fact :D

still not listened to anything besides Get On Your Boots, so I'm still worried how it's going to sound considering I like the single less and less with each listen :reject: I keep hearing the Ting Tings in the verses it's fucking getting on my nerves. But yeah, avoiding any radio shows playing the tracks though still hoping I win a ticket to the live lounge performance. I mean a u2 'gig' is still a u2 gig.

Haha yeah I guess I just like torturing myself with the fact that they might play something new and I'd have to shut it off:lol:

that is EXACTLY what I'm doing :yes: . . . the kids are prepped and ready for the crush at the record store (and I have promised them lashings of KFC if they keep the complaints to a minimum whilst I run like a loon to the counter,shaking with excitement . . . my daughter has even promised to hand over the cash for me herself if the excitement gets too much for me :lol: )
