Sorry that i kept this one so long for myself... But i just love this picture..Says it all for me! Chicago 21th was one of the best concerts i've seen, all along with Rotterdam '87 ans Slane Castle...
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-03 13:22:09
Holy cow I blew this up and ....*Boing* ....my eyes pinged......so gorgeous.....thanks Knapp for sharing its just beautiful.... *kitty so happy in this New Year*..... ;)))))))
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-03 13:34:17
guh these two are simply beautiful! I have no idea how many times I said that, but they still are :) and you are a great photographer, are you going to any of the shows next year? maybe you can get one of the newspapers here or magazines to send you there to make pics;)
From: mariëtte on 2006-01-03 13:38:56
haha, looks like Larry is sort of throwing up out of his nose...iejak!
From: knappevent on 2006-01-03 13:49:47
Your welcome... thanks for your compliments! Don't forget to check the other one... i did send the last two i had.I think i have to go though some old boxes, i know for sure i have there pictures of Rotterdam '87 and some ZooTv pictures all made from nearby stage. (Crappy quality, throw away camera, but hey :-) at least i've made them) I will try to scan them, for an upload here.I have blown this photograph up in Adobe, did some interpolation thing and have redefined the colours... filesize +/- 337 Mb. My brother in law works at an office who can make colourprints... new doorpaper for me ;-) LOL
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-03 17:13:48
HOLY 337 MB for a picture O_OI mean, can you share it???? I do need some posters to fill my room with... but it's a bit big... what's the size of it? 1,5 by 2 meters? you can also send these files to kruidvat, and they'll make posters of it, it costs a bit but it comes on photopaper, so it won't rip easily :)
From: mariëtte on 2006-01-03 17:18:25
hey Ingrid the kruidvat thing, do you need to send big photo's, or doesn't that make any sense? I mean would the poster be unclear when you sent a small photo? Sorry I really have know knowledge of that, haha.
From: mariëtte on 2006-01-03 17:19:32
'no' instead of 'know'
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-03 17:33:46
well you do need to have big pics.. I sent that band pic, and it is a little bit blurred, but the high pixeled birthday bono was totally detailed :DI wrote it down ehh crap I can't find the paper but I wrote down how many pixels how many cms is ... could be useful you know.. :) but now I can't find it... kruidvat can make them at 30x40 or 50x75 cms... :) I got two at the first size, but for a doorposter you'd need 50x75...I'll try to find out how many pixels that are :p
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-03 17:36:42
ok Im using irfanview to take measurements, 50x75 cm is 1890 x 2835 pixels or 19.69 x 29.53 inches :)
From: mariëtte on 2006-01-03 18:10:07
ok thanks:D
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-03 19:00:09
Hey guys, this pic has all the elements that we like,except that it may not make some of the other gals happy, but maybe we should use this as a new home page,until there are new ones????Just look at his cute face,open shirt and playing that nice green guitar! Lets vote. If someone else has another pic then put in the ring for a vote.
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-03 19:37:48
I'd agree with oct XD I love this pic! heh then we'd move from one of Knappe's pic to another... :p but I don't know, since the Adam one's being used as home pic too I think...
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-03 19:58:21
This one even has Larry, so you can't get any better. Now if the Edge were on it,it would be tops, but hey you can't have everything. which Adam pic are people commenting on?I don't see it.
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-03 22:03:33
the red shirt, green/blue bass guitar pic...
From: Susanne on 2006-01-03 22:35:04
Uhuh Knappe, as somebody said, you really are taking great pics... Bono's looking a bit thoughtful, even a little sad in this one... Touching.
From: knappevent on 2006-01-03 22:40:47
the measuremets of the supersized JPG file are 8533*11377*24b, size 25.722 KB. In Adobe format its size is 375.897 KB. Ingrid? Which printable size is that?
From: boomcha on 2006-01-04 12:31:24
we can make a fotoshopped one with all of them in it and then do that as the homie one hehe. Would make Matt mad as hell but....
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-04 15:29:54
err knappe, size Elephant I think :)ok 8533 x 11377 pixels is ... great. it's too big for irfanview.. ok try again... it can't resize a pic in it either.. its out of memory... :p but if you see it logical, 1 cm = 83 pixel 8533/38 = 224.55 cm = 2m2511377/38= 299,39 cm = roughly 3 m... as I said, size elephant :)Are you willing to send a bigger sized version of this pic to me so I can make a 50x75 cm poster of it??? that's 1890 x2835 pixels...
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-05 05:57:25
Boomie what a brilliant idea....but smack yourself for irking Matt... lolWow Ing I know pixels but metrics is outta my league...*kitty hugs her 12 inch ruler*I can't remember what the hell i came here to say........O^O ....dumdeedum~ten minutes tick off~.....oh yeah now I remember......they advertized a U2 half time show for the Rose Bowl and it was a snippet from Chicago DVD.....talk about steaming eyeballs.... I really wish the cable stations wouldn't do that to us... very irritated!....grrr
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-05 06:02:37
Boomie my email is a sad lonely little cyber child ...*smiling* ...send me an update any progress?..;)...*hugs*
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-05 07:13:51
Soulcat, are you saying that U2 played half time at the Rose Bowl ?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-05 07:16:27
Knappe , this is a beautiful pic , are you going to upload the larger size ???
From: knappevent on 2006-01-05 11:18:50
The one i've upped to Matt was 600*800 and that was a rresize off the camera one, that one is 1536*2048 (3.1 MP).
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-05 11:45:44
Yep they had a snippet off the chicago DVD ...i was so irked....I thought they were suppose to be there!!! *Puffs up like a blowfish*....grrrLooks at piccie of Bono and my heart melts...and all the hot air swooches out blubblub...... ...I so luv that photo... ;))
From: Sb_87 on 2006-01-05 13:59:38
How can you think that Bono is hot, he is the best singer in the world but he is not hot, hi is an old fat man with a great singing abillity. Larry though is hot a nice face and a hot body, he locks bettter as each year gouse by.
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-05 14:15:13
*What the ---- did you just say about Bono...?????????? You better watch out before somebody washes your mouth out with soap Sb....you can tease but that was extremely offensive to me....Triple where did we put that plastic picnic blade??????? mean grrrr to Sb
From: patty on 2006-01-05 16:48:01
*patty sees rude comment...comes crashing in**turns into the incredible hulkess!!Don't make me angry...You wouldn't like me when I'm angry!!!**Starts crashing around the world wide web looking for that sb..(and we know what that stands for) No body insults our man!!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-05 21:04:44
I think we have a typical 'blind as a bat' person here... why are you so pathetic, you like the band, that's obvious, and you think larry is hot... did we ever say he isn't? NO!we don't say that, and don't think that, or even if we think it we THINK it not say it, because we RESPECT HIM! yeah, tough word eh? R-E-S-P-E-C-T-!you should learn about that a little more! even tho you don't like Bono's looks, you can sstill respect him and his fans and not make us angry like this! and for your information, you say Bono is old... larry and Bono differ ONE year and 5 months and 21 days... yeah that's really a huge amount of time to call one person old and the other hot... and yes, Bono is getting a little chubby, but ever been to a macdonalds?? there are FAT people, and even tho they are fat, they are people, so you could respect them too! they have feelings you know! Our man Bono has feelings too, so leave him alone and go to a bono bash forum if you want to talk mean about him, leave us alone in worshipping this 'old fat'man!
From: patty on 2006-01-05 21:16:44
yah!
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-05 21:31:58
and I would never sink as low to start bashing other members, but I still prefer a little chubby over skin over bone.... but that's a personal opinion I think.. luckily there are millions who think like me...
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-05 22:24:25
and to give my opinion a little fact... the Atu2 fan survey results:Frequency Analysis # Answer Percentage1. Adam 7.64% 2. Bono 44.09% 3. Edge 17.82% 4. Larry 6.99% 5. Dont have a favorite 23.46% Total 100% yes Bono is fat and ugly and nobody loves him.... what would that make the rest of the members????????????????
From: knappevent on 2006-01-05 22:34:33
lets make a 180 degrees turn here... who else got a golden voice? (as my brother in law says NOT ME: Edge sings like a screaming ice selling man... ) i agree girls.. he's mad ;-)the fact is: the 4 individuals together make U2, if one is missed its not U2 anymore.... they all have their own qualities. And hey, they make music!! they're NOT models ;-)
From: Susanne on 2006-01-05 22:39:43
Amen to that, Knappe.
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-05 22:45:49
amen Knappe ;)and your nickname still makes me lol after all this time... ^^also, I think Edge has a beautiful voice too, and I think it'd be a kickass great idea if Edge and Bono would sing a duet together... and with adam and larry as abcking vocals *lol*and I still love all four of them... and still willing to trade my sister to meet them!
From: knappevent on 2006-01-05 22:53:37
to be honest Ingrid.. i didn't want to share this piture.. as you know, i did mail all other pictures to whoever asked.. i just couldn't resist it anymore not to share a little one on this beautifull site.. i would like to make a BIG compliment to matt, doing this job... keeping up this site.. it just gives us nice evenings.. i'm trying to make a better picture with photoshop, but it doesn't go that well :'(
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-05 23:03:00
I can understand you would want to cherish this beauty for yourself first... and not wanting it exposed on the big ol' internet... but I won't upload it to internet ever in my life if you don't want me to! I can promise you that, and you can come to my door with a big bad iron bar since you have my adress... so I wouldn't do it! why do you want to make the pic better, since it is already perfect?and yeah, Matt is an awesome dude who should be honoured for what he does for us and a lot of other people... this was actually the first site I started visiting when I started my U2 fandom.. and partly because of this site it grew bigger and bigger, and now I have all of these friends here, and thanks to Miro I can talk about the obsession on a great forum too... :)
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-06 03:45:44
Yep Matt's the MAN...grrrTwo fingers up to Matt..... :))))Ok now is that two fingers on one hand...*peace baby*oris that one finger on each hand???????....O-O.....hahahahahaha...lol...luv ya Matt....peace out...grrrr
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-06 05:09:06
Sb-87 can take a long walk on a short pier for all I care, He / she is just a fly by night anyway.Sb is probably a fat old man and is jealous that he can't sing!! So there. Is adorable and always will be you big Turkey buzzard!!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-06 07:07:13

I`m sorry that I insolted you all and Bono. I kind of like teasing with people, sorry. And for you who said that I was an old ugly man you are wrong. I am an 18 year old swedish girl with bad english spelling and I´m sorry again for insolting you all. Nice pigtures by the way i forgott to wright that in my last note
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-10 08:19:12
I have dial up also , this will be my third try I will let run though the night , but I keep getting knocked off , curse this dial up.to sb , I will accept your apology , however if this is a website you wish to comment on watch what you say about Bono and U2 we may tease the members of U2 but we love them all !!!!!!
From: knappevent on 2006-01-10 08:36:40
SB? accepted! Sweden is a beautifull country, so the story goes that the girls from there.... We're just a bunch of U2 fans, and the girls here will defend the boys to anyone. You're English isn't that bad at all, we understand what you mean... so don't tease to much and welcome here!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-10 08:51:05
knappe , did you get my email ???
From: knappevent to U2Trinity on 2006-01-10 10:50:04
Yes, i did recieve your mail. I will make some things this week and send them. Due to work i haven't been able to for the moment. I will mail you when i send it away!
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-10 12:09:32
ahh sweden... New years day land ^^ I have a friend living there, sadly he hates snow... :)also if you like to tease people... do that on a forum or whatever.. but don't do it here, because these sites are there to praise them, not bash them... and knappe, it's really funny to see that you are a total dutchie ^^ did you know the number One mistake in english in our country is the wrong spelling of the word beautiful?(I always said beautifull too, thanks to U2 I know it's wrong :p) oh and note I finally learned how to spell the word always XD I'm learning sooooo fast!
From: boomcha on 2006-01-10 12:27:11
Ah, sb_87 your welcome here for teasing. We do that alot here and its funny all the time but that wasnt teasing. That was rude!! We absolutely adore the men and we tease each other alot because we love them so much. But in a nice smart way...so better luck next time!!!Knappe, Ive downloaded Ingrids documentary .... is there more on the DVD your spreading around??? Do I need that too :-)))) ?????
From: knappevent on 2006-01-10 13:40:46
I would say: Ingrid, will you please do the honours of answering this question? ghegheghe... Yes offcourse there's more on the DVD ;-)... And i allready know that my English writing isn't the best.. thanks for your hint Ingrid, but i'm affraid that the misspelling never will go away, it has become a part of my system :-)..
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-10 16:10:06
heh I know knappe, it costed me about err since may/april last year to get rid of me allways and I still write alot of words, I.E. alot, sticked to each other... ah to answer the question... is there more? Hell Yeah!ok let's see what my mind remembered... U2 performing,..... I think In gods country, and a few other songs I cant remember in a british tvshow wich is very very badly in quality(not that I minded that) the U2 milennium thingy, 1989-1990 Where The Streets Have No Name, but it's not complete.... U2 performing I Will Follow too I think... argh I gotta watch it again soon, I can barely remember it!!!
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-10 17:32:25
Sb I accept also.......I can understand why you might have gotten confused because we all tease each other about the men but really you have to disern what is fun and what is cruel...at least until we get to know you and you know us...Ok.... enjoy these great men and enjoy the Larry lust factor cause it sounds like you've picked your guy... nice choice ... ;)) ....Ing what do you mean you can't remember??????? Your to young to have senality....whatZ up with that????? Soulcat is going to have to come and get that DVD from you if you don't snap ouit of it!!! hahahaha....grrrrBt the way that file up there tried to blow my ----ing puter up....just wanted to thankyou ...hahaha...grrr*Soulcat can't believe Boomies puter let her have it*....what did you do kiss it and pet it as it downloaded?????? jeeeez

Incredible hulkess transforms back into mild mannered U2 fan who forgives sb for bad comment.
From: boomcha on 2006-01-11 12:33:35
Muhhaahaa Knappe so that means that I have to write you a mail and you have to send me the whole thingy....hehe...your own fault!!!!Awe Kitty of course I did that here at work...at home it would have cost me some more sleepless nights...but then I have to wait till I have a CD full of stuff so my colleague will burn it for me....might take some more weeks before I even see a bittybit of it.grrrrrr
From: Ingrid - Most beautiful U2 vid ehre!!!!!! on 2006-01-11 15:11:52
*snicker* sorry for that soulie, and yes I am sometimes feeling like I have senality... since I forget anything important(as in I can remember anything about U2, well nearly anything, but not school stuff etc XD)also, I could just post the 35 sec clip of the Bono-striptease here... but I got something EFFIN BETTERS!!!THE NEW OOTS VID!!!! God it's better than the last one, Bono is so utterly BEAUTIFUL in it!!!! god and he looks so young... *drool* I can't wait till U2.com puts it on the stie so I can rip it offf.... I hope they put it in full first... but here you can watch a stream on AOL....http://music.aol.com/franchise/firstview.adp
From: Soulcatgirl on 2006-01-11 17:00:36

From: Octu2 on 2006-01-11 17:42:09
Ok Sb_87 I guess it is my turn to accept your apology, but like everyone else on here said, make sure you don't insult them the way you did our man Bono. By the way, If you are 18 and living in Sweden you probably know English better than the average 18 year old in America. I've been to Sweden and it seemed to me that everyone spoke perfect English. I loved Sweden too!! Beautiful Country and Beautiful people. I was hard pressed to find anyone very ugly there!! I think the women get more attention as far as beautiful in Sweden ,but the men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Wow. I'm not ususally into blond men,but holy cow, mostof your men there could be models!!!! My hubby lived in Sweden for a year as an exchange student and loved it. You are welcome to be here,but again, no rude comments on the B man. I can see how you would gravitate to Larry, since he is a bit Swedish looking :)It seems like this is our new home pic????
From: Susanne on 2006-01-11 21:39:40
Oh wow, I see there's lot of going on.... Well hello everybody, nice to see most of you still here, have to take some time again and read all your latest comments through! :) And what is our new home-piccie???? I see that beautiful Adam pic has disappeared, can't find it anywhere, snif....
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-12 08:08:18
well knappevent , has lured us in with this beautiful pic of this beautiful man, knappe , you our weakness . Please don't use your powers for evil ...;)
From: boomcha on 2006-01-12 12:27:28
Mmh, Kitty its not that nice and easy with the burning, but anyways....have to work alot at the man to get him do that 8-0EYeah Ing tell us...how to save so I get the CD full of stuff...was right to put the link, but as you are the LinkQueen here you were faster....thankx and now .... How Do We Save It?????????? And the other versions too, cause I havent seen one and now I hear its the 3rd already...damn hate German Music Tivi...only crap...grrrrrr
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-12 15:38:45
this is a flashplayer stream... can't be saved.. but I'll get the link right as u2.com posts it from PLEBA forums ^^ a gal there will post it to me because I explained her how to save all the vids there :) I love the new vid more... the head in the first one scared the shit out of me!and soulie, I don't think he's shy about agin or anything.. as he said earlier, the real reason is that he doesn't like strangers to look him straight in the eye... and the eye condition thingy.. and part of his trademark ofcourse ^^ and if he'd keep them off.. about half the U2 female fans would die... so bad Idea... at least this surprises us.. *drool*
From: knappevent looking all over for Miroslava.. on 2006-01-12 15:59:01
*Runs into this place, shouting*: "Is Miroslava here?? IS SHE HERE??" Ahh... there you are.. *Happy face pops up, teardrops in my eyes* Miroslava. Just wanted to say T H A N K Y O U fot those amazing dvd's! Like Chicago, three dutch kisses!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Now i'm freaking late..*Runs out of this forum, Shouting THANK YOUUUuuuuuuu Miroslavaaaaaaa....*
From: Miroslava on 2006-01-12 16:11:39
WOW! How in the world did that get there so quickly? :-0So glad you liked them! *Mexican smooches in exchange for the Dutchy ones*
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-12 19:38:46
... if he wanted to see jammed... he COULD have asked it.... and I'd upload it >< I'm having that since I don't know when!
From: Miroslava on 2006-01-12 19:48:29
He wasn't asking for it. I threw it in as an extra. I had a Conan O'Brian/MTV Jammed DVD I burnt for him in addition to Chicago for being so patient. :D

Oh my dear girl *kitty swipes brow*...spoken like the fresh spring spirit of youth in bloom with nary a crease to your petal....may I tell you everyone that hits forty is shy about there age *except Oct who made an obvious deal with the devil and has the tumultuousness of a town cryer* hehehe ... Especially a man that is in the limelight and people (as we do here) discuss' his appearance regularly.....he is in the business of selling himself for 25 years and going , as with his music his passionate beliefs and his subtle but guarenteed 1000% sure fire sexiness! yeppa! When Bono speaks of the things you mention the underlying theme of them is his shyness with the scope of his vanity...He wouldn't be human if he didn't feel this to a certain extent...To avail the priviledge of looking someone else in the eye with out granting the same coutesy when written on paper sounds conceited but I don't believe that at all....he is shy and protective of the changes taking place on his face...his eye affliction is also a form of vanity and shyness (in the sense it swells and hurts and doesn't look too appealing and he wants to prevent it from occuring)...he's found a nitch an affordable sanction that protects his health his vanity & his shyness encompassed in a pair of cool shades....So yes (imo) age is playing a part Ing..Believe me when you get there you won't think my comment so farfetched...*smiling*....kitty professes aging sucks baaaad!.Grabs droopy jowls making flappysucky gurggley sound*...bwuhahahahagrrrr

Must... wipe... mariah carey.. out... AAAAAAAAAAARRRRGH I HATE THAT stupid dumb blonde bimbo!thanks for that link knappe... and soulie, it might play a part in it, but it must be VERY little, since Bono KNOWS that about a million(or more) women are drooling over him.... he knows we love him even if he'd look like an old crank!and I got Bass Player mag today.. Adam's soo hot on the cover ^^ now I need a mag with larry on the cover.. and the band...

huh! 0_0 this is strange, Mariah Carey has 54 % and U2 has only got 10%!!This can't be reall, I think there's some Mariah Carey fan who has pushed that button over hundreds of times or so, hehe....*confused* Maybe she did it herself..
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-14 21:50:16
Don't even get me started on stupid Mariah Carey.Don't like her at all and I can't believe that she has 8 nominations. Her videos suck big time and she bugs beyond!!!!! I'm afraid she is truly going to take over the Grammy show :(

I'm starting to collect all the DVDs of the concerts and will soon get a package from Amazon with Rattle and Hum and also Slane Castle. I'm not sure I want the Boston one. I did see it on the TV in 2001,but I heard the Slane one is better?? Anyone know the comparison?
From: patty on 2006-01-16 00:34:50
Hi Oct! I got Boston and Slane for Christmas. Love them both! I don't know if one is better than the other, but the Slane dvd has the making of Pride as an extra. Love that! B's mullet was in full glory! Also, Slane is not so fast moving visually. It's more staight forward with not so many camera angles. Hope this helps. I'm looking for PopMart Mexico City. Any body have any reviews? I can only find it on vhs. Is it on dvd???
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-16 01:20:30
Hey thanks Patty. I kind of want Boston still. Maybe I will get it along with a couple others I saw on Amazon. Soulcat has eveything under the sun as far as vintage and today!! I would love to visit her and sit around one day and look at all her stuff.
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-16 01:30:05
Oh and Soulcat, what do you mean town cryer???Wanna make something of it!! ahahahahahahaha
From: knappevent on 2006-01-16 10:23:38
If you have a good audio set, the DVD of Boston is MUCH better quality as the Slane DVD. (and still that is a good one) Otherwise, the Slane DVD has more "visual" quality! Don't know how to discribe how it was, but i can tell that, as above said, is't so exausting as the Boston one. And, that's for sure, the entourage is real wich means: I was at Slane (24th, first one not the DVD show that was the second show), everytime i watch the DVD i get the goosebumps allover... The DVD reminds me of a great, GREAT weekend. Simply said: The Slane DVD gives the best impression of a U2 open air live gig.Back to the Boston DVD: The version of "kite" is skyreaching, so beautifull! Can't get any better then that! The emotion on Bono's face during that song... discussions still going on wether it's a tear rolling down, or some sweat... As spoken for myself: I find it a real pitty that on the next DVD from Chicago they have tried to make exact the same shot, zooming in on Bono's face during the sons, over and over again. Hard to tell wich DVD i like the most... i just like them all... each of them has something special...In this comment i have let out the illegal DVD's. (got several) I just háve to say, all time favorite is the DVD "The Fire is Rising" with a concert on it from Dortmund Westfalenhall '84. That concert made me fan for life. And therefore i have scanned an old U2 logo (the one with the wings underneath it) and a tattoo wil be made. Maybe some advise from all of you? Where shall i place it: Between my shoulders or on my left upper arm?)
From: knappevent on 2006-01-16 10:26:03
Oeps: not sons, but songs in my comment above
From: boomcha on 2006-01-16 12:12:18
Soso, Knappe Dortmund 84 was the best?!?! Then, you know what youve gotta do :-))Awe I was at the first Slane too!! That was so overwhelming with Bonos dad and all that..when they put him on the screens during One...oh, I almost started to cry. WHere have you been?? I was way up on the hill but even from there it was nothing but great!! So great memories (thanks for bringing them up again)! Im not sure bout the tatoo, would be very carefull you know its for life...how big you want it?? Between shoulders it has to be real big, otherwise Id prefer the arm (what about the leg??) But there a "long" one looks better. So, I cant really help but Im curious to know and see what youve done!!!
From: knappevent on 2006-01-16 12:53:35
*knows what to do* I was @ Slane, left side off the hill just above "the flat" part so that we could see it all. Just near the places they sold the goodies, and just above "the drinkingfield". Rememberance huh... Going wild on the thougts of "Coldplay" playing for 80.000+ crazy Irish people. Going wild on the thougts of "Red Hot Chili Peppers" convincing the whole crowd to take of their shirts and spinning it arround above their heads like a helicopter... "give it away, give it away, yeah" Also remembers Bono crying during this incredible version "One" *sniff* Oww... i'm lost again. I'm back at Slane, drinking a cold beer in the afternoon sun, 21/22 degrees... even remember the fireworks afterwards, started when eveybody was walking away, playing "The Unforgettable Fire" at maximum volume. Also remember the 3.5 mile walk back to the bus, with hurting feet and knees from standing. Remember waking up in my room, openening the curtains and watching out over Dublin Bay, with the two pipes (red en white, shown in the beginning from the Pride video).. Remembers the rain we've left in, when we headed to Slane, with the feeling "so this must be..." and along our way it just got better and better...i'm lost! i'm lost!What a great feeling!
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-16 14:14:35
*sniff* sometimes I really hate the fact I am such a lame late newb! Btw, two days ago, I had my 1 year U2 fandom anniversary! XD and thursday night I'm going to buy me IPOD!!!!!!! knappe, is there really no way I can get this pic off you in the full size????? I'm willing to trade it against stuff I have on my pc ^^
From: boomcha on 2006-01-16 14:47:42
oops I thought bout the RHCP spinning too and forgot completely to write it down...grrrr! The 3,5 mile walk... so your bus was right at the gate ;-) That was really a long way to freedom...remember that really well. We were there by car and got the carpark nearest to the gate so that ment we had to stay there most of the night. Think it was till 3.30 in the morning...we went off the carpark and then had to stop there and wait. That was tough. Read the next day that it took U2 only 20 minutes to go back to the Clarence....And when we told "Margret" at the B+B he said: oh, i could have given you directions right off that thingy...would have taken only a few miutes!!!! haha, but I luved it, was all worth!!!and remember coming back home went straight to U2.com and asked bout the green Teeshirts...cause they were sold out when we finally arrived.we were quite in the middle of the hill with a good view over all and also to the big flat screen on the right where the camera went right into Larrys shirt and my friend almost rolling down the hill by the sight of that...hehe. And Edge at the start of MW doing that slight moves without playing the guitar which made my knees weak and i was almost rolling down the hill :-*

*has ordered an extra copy of this picture, for a poooooooooor litlle Dutch girlie* *anoying mode* nanananaáááá... got me That Green Shirt *anoying mode*And ofcourse i voted for our guys... it's just that i don't wanna write about MC.. When i type that name, the computer will shutt itself down... whahahahaha.. she isn't a discussion worth. And she is/was married to that labelboss/producer? 1 + 1 = 5 nominations!
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-16 20:10:11
Hey Knapp I think the same about MC and all her nominations. Maybe they feel sorry for her and want her to be nominated so she won't have another nervous break down. So, it could go like this......Nominated 8 times but wins maybe one or two.....or they really feel sorry for her and they see how many times the teen age girls voted for her and give her more. As I look at the nominations, wouldn't it really suck if U2 loses to Coldplay in that one catagory that they are nominated together?? Can you imagine how bit Chris Martin's head would be?? By the way, My husband really wanted to see them, so I will be going to see Coldplay in Oakland on the 31st. I'll let you know how good or bad the show was. I know most on here don't care for Cold Play, but it would be intresting to see them perform and see if all the hype Chris Martin gives himself is worthy.

From: boomcha on 2006-01-17 12:06:13
Dont think is has something to do with Tommy Thing cause they didnt split up as "friends". But who cares....its only the Grammies and they have enough...another couple dont make any difference...THEY are THEE best EVER!!!! And the only thing for me is that they perform and we can see them again!!!And actually I like Coldplay! Not the fuss he makes bout himself but the music is nice! Wish you a nice time enjoy it!!
From: knappevent on 2006-01-17 12:52:00
For me it's simple:I like it that there are singers like MC. When they play that crap on the radio, and afterwards they play U2 i just know why i like the guys. You've must have other singers/songwriters to compare. And compared: U2 to MC... whahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaa!I have seen Coldplay twice: Once at Slane and once in Nijmegen, Goffertpark together with "Live". I have to say i was adored with the Slane concert, and decided to see them again in Nijmegen. Actually, i have to admitt that i liked "Live" much more. The charisma of those men was simply huge, bigger, and better as the charisma of Chris Martin and his men. But i do like their music! Just that one concert was a bit less, but hey, every group has sometimes a minor one. Even our guys. I have this DVD of Coldplay with a show from Canada on it, performed for a small groep of fans. Great performance, goor audio and nice to watch.
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-17 20:09:40
yay knappe ^^ what size will it be???? XD you still are my herooooo!also I like coldplay, I really like the tunes... I only hate chris martin... arrogant idiot he is.. and I don't like his vocals.... same with James blunt... to listen to it for a minute or one song is ok, after that, it annoys the shit out of me! and I don't like his bluffing about his voice being at the height of Bono's voice on the War album... Dream on chris!!! you're never going to sound like Bono, nobody will!

From: Octu2 on 2006-01-18 03:09:58
Ok that is funny,that I got so many responses to the Cold Play thing. I once wrote on here about CP and a lot of us on here didn't care for them. Nice to hear that they can be good live,so I will look forward to seeing them in a couple of weeks. Ingrid I'm with you on his voice and that of James Blundt. I do like some of JB's songs though and for some weird reson he looks like he could be Mr. The Edge's son! I think I am the only one who sees it though, because everytime I say it here at home, they think I'm crazy. Bono's voice is so seductive and sexy,that they others can't touch that!!!!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-18 03:13:22
I like many of Collplay songs , but I think it's because they sound so much like U2 , but it angers me that they will not admit they are strongly influenced by them !!!!!!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-18 03:19:47
I like alot of Coldplay songs to , but I think It's because they sound so much like U2 . but what angers me is they will not admit they are strongly influenced by them . just admit it Coldplay , U2 fans all ready know this !!!!!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-18 03:30:18
i don't know, Trin, I think CP has their own sound,but I will have to say that there are a couple of the songs that sound like U2. I just don't think Chris Martin is very personable and you really don't know a thing about the other guys in the group. I think my husband said that if it is all about the front man then the whole thing is off balance,and they won't really make it for that long. Does anyone else know anything about the other three in the group? I don't. It will be very interesting to see them and the comparison will be fun too. U2 was like a swiss watch and we shall see what CP comes up with. The other band that was super cool live is Greenday! If anyone gets a chance to see them live,do it, you will not be disapointed.
From: Gio on 2006-01-18 04:14:26
Coldplay is Kool. Good to have such a band. I hope they last and keep on delivering the music we need. Do they sound like U2?..I'm not sure. I try to listen hard, but I don't hear Edge guitar. Sometime I think I hear Larry touch. I definably don't hear Bono. And Adam is strictly U2 bass booster.
From: mariëtte on 2006-01-18 15:49:56
Oh my...I read on msn.nl that U2 said they wanted to quit doing tours...In the article you can read they think they've reached their highest level and they're getting old.I have the link here, but the article is in Dutch..http://tinyurl.com/bq5clI hope this is all just a bad gossip...
From: Knappevent on 2006-01-18 16:48:06
Gossip, based on these intervieuws:www.rollingstone.com/news/story/_/id/9142769www.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds28152.htmlno problem, as you ask me. And we all know that the other three do have minor problems for Bono getting involved with projects, wich cost him 23 hours a day... i deal their worries... they have to make music, and besides that do some good work!
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-18 17:32:57
yeah those shitty rumours scared me first too.... but it's a quote from Edge taken out of it's contrary... Edge meant that he was glad to say bye bye to the vertigo tour, because it's been a long while, and when they are tired they can't top themselves anymore... and there was another rumour on RTL Boulevard(dutch thing) that the band was mad at Bono for his charity stuff.. wich is nonsense because they all said, especially Edge, that they support him! and they think it's good that he does it~!

I just copy-pasted files onto the ipod.. but it's not accepting themm.. not recognizing.... I'll try pictures later and see if he accepts that... but till then... *sigh* I can only stare at it.. and Bono is right... it IS the sexiest thing since the invention of the electric guitar... now if I could only get a picture of the Bman on it... ^^and I won't get robbed... I'd rather kill the robber than lose me ipod!triny... I can hear it... I just have a very strong hate feeling for Chris martin.....

Wow, that is the pits that you can't put any songs on your Pod! do you have a family memeber that has a better computer,that could help you out? Trin I hear SOME rip offs of U2,but they can't pull it off all the way,so it loses the simmilarity very quickly. Hey guys remember the article in "Q" magazine with Bono? I re read it at the book store,and the guy who was talking with him was describing Bono as he walked out of his New York Apartment,and said as he talked to him he smelled the sweet aroma of coffee and tabaco on his breath. I thought he quit and had a scare of cancer? Anyone else catch that? I sure hope he stoppes!! I loved that article and especially when he said "I know when to be serious and be silly buggers" something to that effect. Funny huh?

Hey Ing, gongratulations for your i-pod!!! I'm gonna get a new pc next week, should be able to write here more after that, now my computer keeps on having viruses and I have to do manual virus checking whole the time!!!I got all the three Coldplay cds as Christmas present, I have been listening only one record's six first songs.... I think they have some very good songs and nice melodies, but I don't like Chris Martin's voice always... Sometimes he's stretching it quite horribly. The cd's I own are copied, but if they are good enough I think I'll buy the real ones... Well at least when they're on sale. ;)I'm a bit depressed, I just read a book about U2 which wasn't giving a very nice image about their earlier relations... The book is called "Inside the Zoo with U2" written by Lola Cashman, who was some sort of stylist of the band during Joshua Tree -tour... I don't know, we are all just humans, but describing Bono as a man who's constantly paranoid about his weight and asking after cosmetic surgeons isn't a very nice image of him... Of course we're all just humans and well, he was younger back then... Has anybody of you read that? I got it as a Christmas present, but it has been published already in 2003.
From: boomcha on 2006-01-20 12:10:05
No Ing how sad is that?? Finally got the ipod and then you cant put on whats its made for....stupid and sad :-((Lola thingy, isnt that the one Bono sued last year for stealing the clothes and telling she got them as a present??? So no wonder she says mean things uh??
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-20 20:12:37
yes lola is the evil bimbo who stole things(earrings, a Stetson hat and Bono's trousers!!!!) from our boys! grrr I wouldn't even want to read anything from her!also.. I think I'm going to be sick.. http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/060117/nytu167.html?.v=29and oct... he didn't stop... somewhere in 1998 he got that severe sinus infection.. the doctors told him he could not smoke.. but in Time Magazine from 2002, after having way too much red wine, Bono goes to the bathroom, to smoke, while he thinks his bandmates don't know about it... they did.. and he didn't return... 15 minutes later they found out he was on the floor of the loo... he fell asleep.. again... XDalso I liked the Q article a lot, sadly they don't have the mag here.. and the cover pic is horrible.. I also loved the description of Bono as a 'hip baby eagle' ^^ oh and you can see B with cigars on pics pretty often...
From: Susanne on 2006-01-20 20:50:56
Thanks to you, Boomie and Ing, I just spend half and hour googling Lola Cashman's name, I didn't know anything about that "U2 suing her for steeling their stuff". Hmmm, don't know what's the story behind that really, I'm just sad now for my friend that she wasted her money for that unauthorized book... I did think there were some funny parts on it though... Too bad their (Lolas and the band's) relationship ended so badly.Hmm Ingrid, I think I have to go and read that Time mag's article again, made me all smiley thinking Bono falling asleep in the loo... And Oct, I don't think either that he has quit smoking, but he's probably trying to reduce it...

From: Ingrid on 2006-01-21 15:28:06
I don't have the mag from 2002 sadly.. but I do have the quote ^^ : TIME magazine March 4th, 2002 "Can Bono Save The World?"Quote:At 1:30 a.m., exactly five hours after his bravura Super Bowl show, Bono is exercising the rock star's fundamental right to be ridiculous. At a celebratory post-game dinner in the French Quarter with his band mates, the U2 management team and actress Ashley Judd (an old friend), he throws back some red wine, tells a few stories about Frank Sinatra, leaves a rambling cell-phone message for Judd's husband gently informing him that his wife has been kidnapped by a rock band, and then sneaks off to the bathroom for a cigarette. (Bono thinks the rest of U2 doesn't know he smokes; they know.) After 15 minutes, guitarist the Edge, who adopts a kind, paternalistic role toward his childhood friend and band mate, glances toward the bathroom and says nervously, "Bono's allergic to red wine." Sure enough, Bono has passed out on the bathroom floor. U2's deputy manager, Sheila Roche, is unconcerned and continues sipping her drink. "He's probably just taking a nap. He's an excellent napper," she says. A few minutes later, Bono emerges rumpled but renewed. As he exits the restaurant and makes his way through the mob on Bourbon Street, he throws his hands in the air and screams to no one in particular, "No, I will not do the snake dance for you!"he sounds so cute when he's drunk ^^
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-21 18:48:32
Susanne, she is that witch that stole all the stuff and they took to court. They won and got the goodies back.You probably know that now since you looked her up. I hope he does quit smoking since there is cancer in the family. I think he did have a scare and that was the personaly emergency that almost derailed the Vertigo tour. We already talked about how much we hate the smoking thing, so I won't keep rambling about that. I wonder what they are up to right now? Soon we should have some more pictures from the up coming shows...Yippy!!!!!!!!! And of course we hopefully get to see them on the Grammies. Ingrid,sadly the teenages in the U.S. can in general be very lame and go for all that crappy rap stuff!! Right now I have the old Vh1 on and the top ten is so stupid. U2 is on it at least with "The Original of ........." but it is #14 and stupid idiot Mariah is #2 a slip from last week where she was #1. I really expect her to get a lot of the grammies so hang on for the vomiting ride :( At leas they won last year,so the rest is icing on the cake.Oh it just said that they are now #12 on the list with the video.

Hi! thank you all for forgiving me. I have had a hard time with adding comments are there any one here exept me who has had this kind of problem, with the teknik here on this webbsight? Knappevent all the girls in Sweden are not stupied, blond and big boobed. But there are some, God I feel sorry for them. Ingrid have you got any realatives from Sweden? You´r name is a classic Swedish name. By the way I`m not that found of snow eaither. Is there anyone from Dublin on this webbseight? By the way everyone are free to correct my english spelling.
From: Susanne on 2006-01-22 16:22:52
Oh hi Sb, hur står det till? Hihii, hälsningar från mig från Finland.Ingrid, missed your links so much... Thanks for those again, too sweet.Oct, yeah, I know now who's Lola and don't like her at all. And I'm very sad if Mariah will win grammies, she has a great voice but she's doing very crabby music these days, I couldn't believe my eyes when seeing her new video first time. But probably she's going to win many grammies: well I'm sure it is a great comfort for her when after ten years people wont remember her music, probably just her halfnaked appearence in some music video.And is this our new home piccie now? I can't find that sweet Adam pic anymore...
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-22 18:43:09
oh doodles! I forgot to post the link to the new vid here... I'll upload it soon for ya~!!! (yes I already got it, and it's soooo beautiful!)Update for the dutchies here!(and other EU persons aswell)today on MTV's Brand new... a sneak preview of the new U2 vid... they did the 30 second thing off a laptop,... sadly.. it is version 1... might be so because it was recorded in holland.. still I hope to get the 2nd version here because I love that one! next week they'll air the new vid full, so all dutchies, check mtv brand new next sunday between 17 and 18.00 h ^^also, they had a funny thing.... the night after the first gig, when they arrived at Wisseloord studio's in Hilversum to record OOTS with an orchestra, Bono sat down on the couch with a mug of coffe and.... The Telegraaf!!!(dutch paper, and I read that one too!!!) and he tried to figure out what they said about the gig... XD I could go all fangirly saying omg I read the same paper as Bono... but still.. it sounded pretty funny to me.. imagine Bono with his shades on and some coffee trying to figure out dutch... well Bono, if you ever need help with it ;) I wouldn't mind to teach you!
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-22 18:48:06
okidoki, there ya go ^^http://s62.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3C6M4TZT9RPVK3VR9AF3L8H2MOEnjoy this beautiful piece of shadeless Bono.. and no, I don't know why he only has one earring in... it's a mystery... still, seeing this vid on tv would be so.. so.. incredible... *drool*
From: sb_87 on 2006-01-22 19:01:50
Hi susanne I have allmost the same name as you. My name is Susanna. Whitch part of Finland are you from?I totally agree that Maria is to naked inher videos and the music she maid was better duering the 90s. It must be so could dressing like that, she would never survive here in the cold winter. Is there a new U2 video on the way, whitch song is it?
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-22 20:43:00
Original Of The Species... it's a version made in holland, different fromm the one on the album.. the vid is already there for months in america.. you can find it at u2emporium.com (go to downloads, HTDAAB section)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-01-23 07:11:18
thank you so much Ingrid for the vid , I am downloading it now ...
From: Octu2 on 2006-01-23 18:33:24
Waht do you guys think of this version? I'm not sure yet,as the computer was doing weird things with it. It looked kinda neat, but I doubt they will show that version here,but who knows. I finally watched the Slane DVD, that was funloved the energy and how cute his daughter Eve was on the mysterious ways song. Also it was so fun to watch them in the Unforgetable Fire Doc. They all tried to look so serious and only Larry seemed light hearted. Funny since now he seems to be Mr. Sober sides. That picture of Bono with those two fans is so funny. He looks so tired and messed up. What a great sport though to pose with them and not really care. Great story too. Thanks for sharing that Ingrid.
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-23 22:00:28
I love the new vid.. Bono looks so beautiful in it.. and the big head in the other vid scared me!also oct, the energy at the slane castle show is really amazing.. it was my first recent u2 dvd(after seeing rattle and hum) and I was amazed by it... I do have Boston now... and it misses that energy, but it's cool!I can put the songs of my old mp3player on my ipod at a friends house, and maybe more XD taking me cd with video's with me! so I can use it soon enough... the Unf Fire doc is cuuute! Bono's hair.. and the pieces when he was err.. I think he was drunk.. I hope for him.. otherwise he's really weird XD it sounded funny tho!

I have been rockin to the beat The Tick and running around singing ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD doin the Shakespeare dance drinking some To be or not to be and A Midsummer Night's dream, then takin a bite out of the Reduced shakespeare company and telling people, "Oh romeo romeo, wherefore art thou romeo" and when it's all done I jump up on the table of Sims and sing, "It smells like," and it goes like thisMe: "It smells like"Them: "What does it smell like, Space Ghost?"Me: "It smells like"Them: "Pork and beans?"Me: "It smells like!"Them: "WHAAAAAAAT"Me: "It smells like Cartoon Planet. Whoowheee!"and then we take a ride in the Electrical Storm lowrider with some more Brak Space Ghost and Zorak blastin from the speakers of photography to home where I jump into my bed littered with half-finished dreams of my only real obsession...THE MAN.

From: Susanne on 2006-01-30 10:02:08
Nice to hear Ing your ipod is finally working. And talking about computers, I have a Windows XP now, and have to say, bit of a difference for Windows '98 I use have, eh... Triny, I've been watching all the 80's videos, haven't seen so many of those. And sadly, I saw Walk on first time via Musicbrigade, liked the video very much, but when I tried to find it today it wasn't there anymore!!!!!!!!!! So Ing, if you have that..... I would be more than pleased. :) And also, I have that 1990-2000 dvd too, I love to watch and listen that "Ground beneath her feet" song. Did you know that Rushdie is having a book called that too? I bought it couple of months ago, haven't have time to read it yet.Sb, I just noticed your earlier comment for me. Hur mår du? ;) And I'm living in Helsinki (actually I'm living in a town called Vantaa which is next to Helsinki, but it is pretty much same anyway). Oh and about the Susanna, believe it or not, it is my second real name too, Susanne isn't my real name no, but there is a long story behind that why I'm using it. :)...And does anyone think there's a chance we are getting new pics anymore?????????
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-30 12:33:21
if you listen to the directors comentary, you can hear Rushdie wrote the song ^^also, wich walk-on version do you want? the european or US one(EU is the one from brazil, Bono in purple *drool* shirt with the rosary and the US one is in london studio with the changing people and Bono showing us some chest while ripping his shirt open *another drool*) :)and I think there will be new pics as soon as they start again.... ^^ Triny, it was just called U2: The Joshua Tree.. and it was in dvd file.. prolly had a little docu and some videos on it.. not sure.. is there a 1980-90 dvd? I know there is a VHS for it... still, I want ZooTV on dvd!and I don't have that much songs on my ipod now.. same as my old mp3player, wich is a sucky 256 MB thingy.. 57 songs.. oh well, maybe I can get some more on it later, I'll just erase them from my old mp3player, put some new ones on it, and go to a friend to put them on my ipod ^^ (and I also have livesongs and a lot of video's on CD here now, burned.. so I can take those with me too)I'm happy with it XD it's such a cool thing!
From: knappevent on 2006-01-30 16:19:00
Hey girlzzzzzzzz.... 've been away some time... working hard @ home to finish all the work. The Joshua Tree DVD is a docementary. Nice to see, but i've only played is once. U2 is filmed in the studio during the recordings and so... just nice... There is a ZooTV tv broadcast on the net, didn't you know? It's from Sydney... and after the discussions here i have run to my attick... grabbed a old storage box and pulled out allllll my old VHS casettes.. and *wow* theyre still playable, beautifull to watch!... U2 at TVGAGA, with Bono so drunk he barely can't stand ánd sing ;-) LOL (thats the only time i've seen him drunk)I have al lot of old stuf, which i have never seen on the net.. (Like U2 playing a song calles "Womansfish", etc..)I will go convert them onto DVD, and drop them on U2torrents... nickname there is the same as here, so i should be easy to find me there. I am buzy to make the requested copies, when finished i will send them... plz be patient!Greetz!

From: knappevent on 2006-01-31 08:56:44
It's performed just before or just after the release of The Joshua Tree.. he changes the words of a song from that album (don't know if he don't remembers or that he's freewheeling there) U2torrents.com is a site. Become a members (doesn't cost anything) and start browsing through hundreds and hundreds of shared audio and video files girl!! I've picked up the most beautifull recordings there.
From: boomcha on 2006-01-31 12:25:45
muhaha Knappe Ive just watched some old VHS things and there was a interview with Kurt Loder where the boys weer on big screens at the ZOOTV time and bono wore the fly goggles and there I thought...wouwiwou hes drunk!!! He hold up a Hei***en beercan wit a ZOO button on it and then he pulls off the shades and you can see in his eyes how drunk he is...but they all were very funny!!!And (Ingrid) I also recognised for the first time that Bono wears this fur/leather coats through all his career. From Gloria to Vertigo... you can see in the vids of the different albums that he always had one!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-01-31 17:28:52
knappe... could you upload some of those for me to yousendit.com please.. I am not allowed to use p2p programs ... parents.. ><and I want to see Bono drunk... XD (the picture in the Killing Bono book with neil, he's pretty drunk there..and the UF documentary on the slane dvd.. the moment he sings in the ballroom when the guy gets the chair...he sounds/looks pretty drunk there too..he can barely stand! )sushi, I'm happy for you ^^ and now teach me Electrical storm!triny, I know the Billy Boola song.. I love it, got btoh versions.. I think they wrote it together... the lyrics are erm.. very, err suggestive ;)yeah Boomie I know, but it are different furcoats ^^I remember a quote from him, early days, first time in NY... he stood in a corner on the street in his furcoat, with the fluffy hair, and a guy aproached him with 'hello there honey, are you lost?' or something... he creeped out and ran back into the hotel *dies laughing*
From: Susanne on 2006-01-31 17:34:16
Ingrid, I want that version of Walk on where they are playing football and driving at a car... Not sure is it US or EU version.... But if you can find it for me... :) :) :)And I have the Joshua Tree dvd, it's a documentary where they tell how the songs of the album were made. It's a nice one.... Hmm Knappe, I wish I had an attic where I could find boxes filled with U2 stuff...Sushi, nice to see you around again, glad you could solve your problems with internet, I couldn't live without net or mobile phone anymore.... Victim of technology yes I am....Sure Triny I know HIM, I think I have been in their gig when I was teen ager and when the band wasn't so big. But I don't like their music very much, it doesn't give anything for me... But nice to know somebody outside Europe really knows them. :) Hmmm Boomie, I want to see drunken Bono too.............

Ingrid my darling, thanks for the Walk on -link!!! :) Love that video, and sure the purple shirt is hot.... Sorry have to go now and figure out how to save that thing for my pc... And then I'll go and check your other link.
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-02 19:58:13
what do you mean save for your pc??? if you got it trough YSI it already IS on your pc :sand you should dl my other link... it's If You Wear That Velvet Dress the Jools Holland version.... I fell OFF my chair when I listened it... Bono sings the blues.... oh and his Armani shades will be available for the red campain... would it be very fangirlishly if I wanted them?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-03 09:26:06
Ingrid , I looked on torrents for the copenhagen show you wanted but the only one I found is 7/7/2001 . and I don't think it's available for download , it's under dead torrents and has 0 seeders . maybe knappe can translate ?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-03 09:31:19
BONOBABES - must download this version of velvet dress , he is making love to us on this ......
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-03 18:08:14
that sucks... Copenhagen 6/7 is the day the airco broke... and all Bonogirls and Adamgirls spontanely died.... a.k.a. Bono ripped his shirt into pieces and sang the rest in his bare chest... there aren't even many pcitures of this... most of them are from this site tho... and I'm desparately looking for a video of that!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-04 08:36:33
Ingrid the vid you uploaded for susanne , is it the entire video ? I only got about 1min 10 seconds . but it is beautiful , I have never seen it before , I always love eu versions better .
From: Susanne on 2006-02-04 15:38:08
Ohmygod, I'm melting here, I just listened that jools Holland version where Bono sings velvet dress... yes Triny, he is making love to us.... Woohoo, it's -28 degrees outside, but I'm keeping all my windows open.... And about that Walk on, for me it downloaded the whole video, it lasts something like 4 minutes.... uhuh
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-04 17:27:33

From: Susanne on 2006-02-05 15:48:09
Hehee girls, very sweet of you both... Can I please keep Edgie's beanie? It's very cold here... And I wasn't asking this question for Boomie... Ing I'm just downloading your link, let's see if it gets warmer here after hearing that speech... :) Oh and I know it is said somewhere, but when does U2's tour start again? I want to see some new pics...
From: Íngrid on 2006-02-05 21:48:21
it's on the mainpage of this site ^^ feb 12 btw... that would be sunday in a week!!!also, wednesday the grammy's!!!!!! but I have no idea when they'll air that here... checked this weeks tv guide... nothin!!! I must see it! they're going to play(One with MJB) and nominated for five! they must at least win three to make it a nice 20 total!
From: Susanne on 2006-02-07 20:57:53
Oh so I'm not the only one who's not going to see grammies tomorrow... No clue when they will air here either, I just saw the last year's grammies on December. But I trust you Ingrid will find some link and send it to us all so I don't have to wait a whole year to see U2 playing with MJB (why do they have to drag her along???? I don't want to hear her singing One, I want to hear Bono singing One.... Snif). But I'm going to keep my tumps up and hope they'll win some award. Oh and thanks for the speech-link, I quite enjoyed it. :)
From: fanny on 2006-02-07 21:40:18
well...I agree with you Susi, but you know the people sitting there have loads of make up on and if bono had sung one alone...there make up will be effed up in a minute!! =P you know..one live is like pushing a button called *river on* hehe;) and river on is like this =(`````````````` <---- the last thing was supposed to be tears..hehe=) and that won't be to good for all the pretty celebs:)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-08 09:51:41

From: Octu2 on 2006-02-08 19:53:48
Hi guys, I haven't been on since the 25th!! My internet was not working until today :( Went to the Cold Play concert on the 31st. It wasn't too bad,but you could see how Chris was trying to copy a few of U2's special moments,like when Bono hugs Edge when they are playing a song. It came off stiff and the guitarist looked annoyed. At one point Chris Martin came out in the audience and ran past us. They have a long way to go,but it wansn't all bad. How annoyed is everyone going to be tonight when Mariah and kanye take over?? Lets hope that this doesn't happen. I just want to see the guys and that is all. Excited to see my Greenday pals too. If it gets too annyoing I'll flip the switch after I enough of U2.Keep your fingers crossed guys!!! Lets hope our men win at least one!!!!
From: lalatoots on 2006-02-08 20:02:47
Fingers crossed;) I am having a Grammy Party tonight. Everyone has to come dressed as a nominee...used to do this every year, but skipped the last two, so this ought to bu fun!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-09 03:12:05
I forgot to tell you guys my very funny dream the other night with Mr. The Edge. I was in this park with my family,that looked very surreal, and there was this pretty Gazebo in the center of it with nice chairs. I sat down, and in the middle of the table,there was a pumpkin pie with pecans. Edge was sitting across the table from me with fork in hand and eating it with me. I told him that I just finnished making pumpkin chocolate chip muffins and he said, "I imagine those would be pretty good" very calm like you would expect. Then I find myself at the theater and and he is sitting there watching a movie with me. Then he decides to leave. Weird and very funny.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-09 06:10:29

From: Ingrid on 2006-02-09 18:20:40
HAPPY U2GRAMMYDOMINATION EVERYBODY XD XD XDok I haven't exactlee seen it... they aren't exactly airing it, ... BUT THEY WON FIVE FRIGGIN GRAMMYS!!!! *bounces around hyperactively*I'm soo happy for our boys! they damn well deserve it! is that an Elevation star I spy on lardence's shirt?? I loooove Bono's new jacket btw!good to hear you're back oct! but now where are soulie, sushi, mariette and many others?susanne, thanks for that site :)were you able to see it? I'm going to email mtvholland to ask IF and WHEN they're gonna air it(they aired it last year sometime midnight, it might've been live)
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-09 18:22:53
Yes,Yes,YesYes,Yes,Yes,Yes,........can you believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a happy fun night :) The best for me was the comination of them up there with Greenday front man Billie Joe. They came to their concert in Oakland, so it was cute to see the comaraderie with Billie Joe chatting with the Edge. Then of course the actual upset of retarded Mariah! Her performance was annoying. Our guys rocked the house with Vertigo,and didn't you want them to keep going?! Great night that is for sure.
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-09 18:29:00
Ingrid, I think Soulie left to write for a bit. Maybe she will be back when the sart the fouth leg. My daughter knows someone that is going to Mrxico to see them. That will be neat to see them sing in the ruins!!

From: boomcha on 2006-02-12 13:09:05
oops Susi forgot to say. Dont miss it when it airs in Finnyland cause Adam makes a speak...and hes quite nervous..maybe because he thought you were watching :-)))
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-12 16:57:28
hihi boomie, you forgot to mention... that Bono was very very drunk there... it's incredibly funny!!!!!!it turned out that Ali wasn't at the Grammy's because she had to fly back to ireland because the editor of the Irish Times(friend of the Hewsons) died... Ali and the kids went to the funeral...
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-13 01:42:59
Thanks, boomcha for the link it"s a wonderful interview and funny . lol how can anyone resist loving Bono he's just to cute :)
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-13 11:49:50

From: mariëtte on 2006-02-13 17:01:19
The quote on that link is funny:"Osama Bin Laden can kiss my royal irish arse"- Bono, November 13th, 2001 :P
From: Susanne on 2006-02-13 20:34:19
Oh thanks Boomie for that link, I hope Edgie stayed far away from those Pussycat dolls (yh). And... Adam...made...a..speech???? Gawd, I'm so sure they will cut it off from that shortened version they are going to show here... Snif.... I want to hear Adam speak!!! Triny, I can't understand it either how can somebody resist Bono... Don't you just love him messing around? :) Heh Ing, great pics once again... It's good to know they are back on road again, hope we'll see some great pics soon...
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-14 16:33:55

From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-15 06:46:36

From: boomcha on 2006-02-15 12:03:58
Wow susie is that really true?? i saw that on TV yesterday where he said that he is going to visit Finnland. But I thought it was a joke...hehe..and he put on the glasses where he looked like your president...sooo funny. I so luv that redhairdguy!!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-15 13:59:16
hehe yeah triny, the spanish are really into it ;) and I can't say they're wrong anywayz! The Boys are back in town XDalso susanne... is he going to be close to where you live??? maybe you can see him *snicker*he was pretty funny on that episode, I loved the moment when they were discussing living in ireland.. and Bono said something about the 'tall puppy syndrom' ... and conan was like "What's that, is that because I'm tall" .. and Bono, flashing his devilish grin 'noooo nothin' ... sooo cute!I wonder if Bono was home for Valentine ... :)
From: fanny on 2006-02-15 14:13:47
They don't even show Conan O' Brian here=(I still haven't seen that episode with U2, but I've seen clips of it like all the secrets and such, and it seemed so funny!!=DCool that he's in Findland Susi=)!
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-15 17:06:03
you havent/??? OOOoOhh why didn't you tell me earlier???? I'll upload it for you! it'll prolly be done in couple of hours ^^ I'll post a link!
From: fanny on 2006-02-15 17:11:15
oh,geez...thanks Ingrid!! I love you!!^^I'll tie your shoes, hold your umbrella, whatever you say!!!=D
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-15 18:55:22
I'll only ask for one thing... bring me... Bono.. XDI know, predictable.. but still.,... ewhat I'd give just to have a minute talk with him... anybody interested in swapping my sister for that?? here's the link :)http://s27.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0JQ31F7KVGNUV0AMTI50OYXHT0
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-15 19:11:14
Bono must have worked out like a beast in January,since his tummy is gone!!
From: Susanne on 2006-02-15 19:41:33
Well yes Oct, you're right about that. :)And about Conan, he left our country today, he was in quite many tv-shows too and yes Ing, he was visiting Helsinki (where I basically live), I could have seen him if I had been in a right place at the right time... He didn't only meet our president, he also met Santa Claus (now everybody knows that the real Santa Claus lives in Finland, right? Just nod people... ;) So when the Olympics have finished, remember to watch Conan O'Brien, when he's mocking Finns... Should be a great laugh. :)
From: fanny on 2006-02-15 20:32:34
Thank you SO much Ingrid!!! well...The search for Bono has started=PAnd his tummy is gone! he must have worked out hard the last months..hehe, maybe he has a six-pack now...Ingrid?=Phehe, sounds funny Susi!=D Great to see you all back!=D but there are still some missing...=(
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-16 06:24:07
yes , there are a few missing in action , I hope soulcat will have a story for us when she comes back .
From: fanny on 2006-02-16 12:52:10
Guess what..The Conan show downloaded for 6 hours or something,and now it's finished..but guess what? My sucky computer don't want to show it!! All that is now is the sound!=( I HATE MY COMPUTER!=(
From: fanny on 2006-02-16 14:38:54
I think the Conan show is gonna work out after all!=D*all happy again*=)
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-16 15:03:51
fanny, why are you asking me if I know Bono has a sixpack now??? I mean,... would you expect that I have to do with that? if so,.. wasn't me! I'm innocent!! really! I mean that!! *runs away with Bono's shirt**snicker* as you can see.. he has a very nice belly now.. not that I didn't love the older one.. :)Susanne, I can't watch conan here :(
From: Susanne on 2006-02-16 19:33:01
heeheheee.... Well I still have Edgie's beanie, so you can keep Bono's shirt... Fanny thanks for that original of the species link, and thanks to Lucia's warning I made sure I was seated well before watching the video. It was beautiful, as I had heard. Ing I'm sorry, I thought they are showing conan in Dutchieland... And I'm wondering too, where is Sushi and Soulcat? And some others too...
From: sushi on 2006-02-17 04:33:47
uggggg.... ugggg ugg uggg times ten billion zillion million trazillion etc. my mommy is not nice.literally the day after my last post she took away the internet and wouldn't reconnect it. then she finally did and now i know how to do it so if she ever does it again I'll know how to reconnect it and not have to wait for her to reconnect it which usually never happens anyway.*big sigh* Ok odd question... I finally activated my iTunes card to get some vids on my iPod, and I listened to the clip of Native Son.... I am totally addicted to that song. But I was wondering if anyone knew anyone or had the entire recording of it so I can listen to the whole thing before I buy it (which I probably will anyway after I stock up on vids ((if there's any money left)) .)???? U2 WON GRAMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYSSSS!!! *yay* Sweetness!! *rrgh is so happy* That shows the edgegay friend who happens to think everyone on the planet except me hates U2. Whatever. =)))))Well neways nice to be back and I would say I'm not making any promises about being on more often but I am now because I know how to connect the internet!!!!! Pink cord goes into port 0, green goes into any port, phone cord connects to the big ugly wirespeed beast, and the power cord goes in the only port it can fit in then plugs into the wall and then you wait for all the lights on the wirespeed to go green and voila!! Internet!!! ^^ :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
From: sushi on 2006-02-17 04:36:02
OYYG..!!!! I'm stupid!!! I totally forgot that the boys were back on tour! *screams so long and loud that she faints and loses her voice* :O Wow I'm really in a state of some serious never-come-back sort of ecstasy now!!!!!!!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I LOVE THIS SITE AND EVERYONE ON IT I LOVE U2 AND THEIR MUSIC I LOVE THEM SOO MUCH *screams* hah. =)

I tried the last stores here now... :(but what made me happy again, funny article in the newspaper...

From: Octu2 on 2006-02-20 19:13:04
Ingrid from what I read,it looks like Fanny is willing to send you a copy of the album you want?! If you still have troubles with getting it, I'll mail it to you from here.Thanks for the heads up boomie, but they don't play channels here in the US unless you add it to your special cable package and that is quite costly.hope somemore cool pictures show up. Wow that is a lot of liquor isn't it Ingrid!!! They must have had a fun time. Was it after the last show in Mexico? If it wasn't I don't know how they could go out there the next day and do that great of a job,they aren't spring chickens anymore :) I saw some of the pictures of Mexico and I still think Larry should cut his hair!!!!! He looks like a car mechanic for gods sakes!!!! LARRY if you read this ever.....Cut your hair man!!

Okey we do but it got Matt really mad the last time..you know that bumpin thing... But what I always thought if there was one pic where we would place the links to other stuff...know what i mean..so i know where to look.
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-22 13:50:54
we could keep one picture right... and so I think it is ok to keep this one up... :) I have the first half of the POPMart video now.. waiting for the 2nd half to be sent *bounces around* AND I CANT WAIT!!!!! still I don't know if it can be better than ZooTv... flyBono... yay!also if you check www.atu2.com you can find out they're filming some cool 3d stuff thingy! it's hard ot explain, just read it there!

Thanks Ingrid for finding it again. I think when all the new ones show up,this one will get cast aside if we don't comment on it.
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-22 19:00:20
I commented on so many new ones I almost burried this one again.
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-22 19:12:09
I hate to bring this whole conversaition up again, but I was looking at some pictues of the elevation tour on PLEBA and the close ups on Bono's hair,and they all look so odd,like he is wearing strange extentions or something. You can see where his hair in the front is combed back then the top looks like it is added on. Maybe now he doesn't care about it thinning and just going for the dye job only. Someone please go there and see what I mean. It is on the first page whn it pops up and reads elevation something or other???

I was thinking about your question Oct , about Bonos hair during elevation , you know he was under alot of stress because of his dad being sick , maybe he lost some hair due to stress , this has happened to me in the passes ...

From: Octu2 on 2006-02-24 19:33:56
I'm not sure Ingrid who posted those, I'll go back and look. I'm super lame at putting pictures and things on the computer, I just go to PLEBA to stare!!The other most commented photo was the war with ZOOKEEPER in the summer. It was a Polish pic I think with a flag. I do believe that is the one with the most comments.
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-24 20:25:46
Ingrid did you find the pictures on Pleba ? I really think the poor guy was wearing something,cause it is extra think on top and now it is thinner. I think that was what was bugging me about the elevation tour when I kept seeing him in the media. His hair line just didn't look right to me,like it does now. In those pictures if you look at all the close ups you can really see how the front is combed back and something is added on top. I think when I went back to look I saw you name on the comment part. If not, it is posted by fungusamongus? Ont he second page? Don't really care that he did that,but I think now I answered my nagging question why his hair didn't look right in the elevation tour. I love it now eventhough it is thin.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-25 08:32:44
yes it;s very cool that they made the music rising tee avalible . so Ingrid ,Zoo vs. Pop ...

B's wearing a dark blue shirt... oh he looks soooo great in that!!!it's in the pictures of south america thread.. one of the last pages
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-27 09:20:09
thanks for the links Ingrid , were some of the pics on that page posted by Oct ?can some one please tell me the name of the movie Bono made in 2005 , he plays a washed up rock star , and he has mutton chops in it ??? and what is u2 connection with the movie Brokeback Mountain ? did u2 do the music for the movie ???
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-27 21:00:42
Trin, it was called "The Million Dollar Hotel" and No I didn't post those pictures. I just stumbled on those on PLEBA,and they were so close up I could see where the hair line was combed and there seemed to be added hair. It doen't bother me in any way, only that it was bugging me during the elevation tour that something didn't look natural about it. Do you guys see what I mean or am I crazy?
From: Susanne on 2006-02-27 22:16:26
Ing, the link you sended, do I have to be a member of that site to be able to view it? I have some difficulties with it...
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-27 22:20:34
Triny, that movie will be on tv friday.. and the resemblance with U2 and Brokeback mountain is a joke :) some member at PLEBA photoshopped the film poster and turned it into a Bono-Edge poster :) very cute and looks really real!and I posted most of those pics, but I don't see what oct means.. susanne, you don't have to, it works fine for me... if you meant the interference one, it'll popup a little window asking you to register/login... ignore it, it'll go away in 10 seconds.. ^^
From: Octu2 on 2006-02-28 04:57:35
Ingrid you really need to look closer at his actual hair line versus the hair that is an inch back. The photos I saw on PLEBA were posted by fungusamungus I thought. They are super up close. For the first time I could see it. Like I said above,it bothered me when they were touring and I thought it was just a wierd hair cut,but his hair is three times thinner than than now. That is only roughly two years ago or so. Look closer.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-02-28 07:35:25
Oct , I have Million Dollar Hotel on dvd , but Bono made a new movie in 2005 , I don't think it is out yet , he plays a washed up rock star . At the time they were talking about it on one of the enterainment tv shows .. Does anyone know the name of it ???Ingrid , thanks for the explanation , I thought maybe they did the music for it .
From: boomcha on 2006-02-28 12:27:40
He still had time to do a movie in 2005. Werent they on tour the whole year?? I think they made something with Leonard Cohen...dont know exactly what they did there. BUt they were in it, sorry no big help!
From: Ingrid on 2006-02-28 17:17:07
2006 Triny it'll be here soon.. Across the Universe.. Bono was credited as Dr. Robert... but now IMBD took bono off the cast list... so I'm pretty confused!

Sorry about that Trinny, I saw a photo of him doing that part (in the new movie) while in New York.

you know what i feel just terrible. terrrr iiiii bllllle. As soon as I say I can be on more often, my internet dies. As soon as the internet is back on, the power does a jig, a few flips and then throws up its stomach and kills the computer. *ugh* It was quite disturbing, the lights flickered, the power went out and came back on, went out again, then when it came back on the computer *belched* (dead serious... it made the weirdest noise, it sounded like a belchburpfart many things) and died, and it hasn't been alive since. I'm typing from a friends house, I'm staying with them cuz my mom's in boston. *sigh* I'm really sorry. I don't think I'm ever going to make another promise ever again. There's just too much freakin stuff that can make it be broken. urrrrrrrrrg. I'm sorrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy but here is what i will say: I HOPE I CAN BE ON MORE. I HOPE MY COMPUTER COMES BACK TO LIFE. I LOVE THIS SITE AND EVERYONE ON IT I HOPE TO SEE YOU LATER. Hugs from Sushi

From: Knappevent End leg 6 CANCELLED!! on 2006-03-09 08:33:43
From U2.com08.03.2006Vertigo '06: Final Dates Postponed.It is with great regret that tour promoter The Next Adventure announces the postponement of the final ten dates of U2's Vertigo '06 tour. This action is unavoidable due to the illness of an immediate family member of one of the band. The effected dates are listed below.'Any fan of U2 will realise that this decision has not been taken lightly', said TNA President Arthur Fogel. 'We will announce further details as soon as we have them.'The effected shows, which are all sold out, are: March 17th & 18th, Ericcson Stadium AUCKLAND; 21st, Queensland Sports & Athletics Centre BRISBANE; 24TH & 25TH, Telstra Dome, MELBOURNE; 28th, AAMI Stadium ADELAIDE; 31st & 1st April, Telstra Stadium, SYDNEY; 4th, Nissan Stadium YOKOHAMA; 8th Aloha Stadium, HONOLULU.We'll bring you more news on U2.Com as we get it.Best wishes to (i gues) the daughter of Edge. Thumbs up!
From: Matt on 2006-03-09 08:39:54
Oh my ... just canceled all my hotel rooms and apartments for the upcoming dates. Hopefully I can cancel my flights as well. I heard Qantas and Air New Zealand will offer something sepcial for U2 fans. Hopefully that is true. Otherwise lots of money burned.My best wishes go to Edges daughter.
From: Knappevent on 2006-03-09 09:17:50
Really sorry to hear that, Matt. Hopefully you do can cancel the flights. A lot of people will be be very dissapointed, but i'm sure they'll understand. U2 knowing they will make it up. Hopefully.
From: melissa on 2006-03-09 09:42:02
i started coming to this site b/c i thought it was for U2 fans... too bad it seems to be more of a bono site. can anyone explain to me why not many people know how to use a zoom lens on other members of the band? i'd kinda like to see pics of the others more often... no, not just larry :P also... coldplay sucks live. i was quite bored at their show. minus the yellow performance. well, not really the performance, more like the theatrics.
From: Susanne on 2006-03-09 10:35:12
Oj, I'm sorry for you Matt and all of the others who's concert was cancelled. Hope you get the better ones instead later. And hopefully Edgie's daughter will be fine.And Melissa... This is an U2-site. The reason why there's so many pics of Bono is probably quite simple: He is moving around more than the others, doing different things. I suppose that's why it is easier to take different kinds of pics of him. (And before anyone gets angry again, this is just MY opinion). And well, nobody is stopping you Melissa to comment other band mates' pics as much as you want, and if you find good ones on Adam, just bring them on, I'll be drooling with you on them then. And I bet Fanny has nothing against some smiley Larry-faces.... :)
From: Matt on 2006-03-09 10:37:29
Melissa, i wanted to take some pics on the upcoming shows but these are now postponed so you might have to wait some more months. I always tried to get pictures of all four on the shows I've attended so far but usually also had most of Bono but at least not all ;)
From: knappevent to Melissa on 2006-03-09 10:43:54
Hey Melissa,Browse through the Chicago pics i made. There are a lot of pics of the other bandmembers. Larry is hard to get, mostly he's to far away. When he came up front, i made some of him as wel.

From: knappevent on 2006-03-09 15:21:36
Don't know the english word gfor it, but in Dutch its called Leukemie (kind of cancer). Due to that the start of the tour was delayed. I don't hope it has come back.

Deep respect and well wishes to Edge and his family... Most people think it's about Sian.. but nothing is sure! well it's not one of Bono's family, he was already in Sydney with the boys and Ali... Melissa, Bono is photographed the most, since he's the FRONT man.. and he's all around the stage... and most of the gals commenting here are Bonogirls.. so that would explain why most comments are made below Bono pictures.. Knappe, it's the same in english, leukemia... for those who don't know it, it's a form of cancer wich is usually located in the bone marrow... (andere naam is ookwel beenmergtering maar geen idee hoe ik dat in het engels moet uitleggen!)I really hope she's ok!

Matt,At U2log was this written:Businesses that are affected by the Vertigo tour postponement are responding to fans in helpful ways:ETS, the official Vertigo tour and travel operator, is contacting its clients individually to discuss refunds and transfers. Air New Zealand is offering fans with non-refundable tickets to Auckland free ticket transfers when new concert dates are announced.Qantas Airlines is offering a “special waiver” to fans with tickets if they contact the airline before Monday, March 13.Maybe it's helpfull to you?Succes!
From: Matt on 2006-03-10 19:59:56
Thanks knappevent. Already told that my travel agent earlier today. The long flights are already cancelled since I had to reschedule them to 6pm today which was not possible. I'll see what to do with the other flights. Probably I'll put them on hold and hope the tour may happen later this year. If not the money is probably lost. I don't think Coppel can work out a good refund policy here. If the shows will be cancelled it is probably more expensive since the ticket service charge will be lost and everything must be mailed back to Ticketmaster and Ticketek. But if Coppel worked out the current deal with the airlines there is hope the show may still happen :)

Prayers go out to U2 familes.
From: Zooropa-INFORMATION ABOUT U2 POSTPONEMENT on 2006-03-11 12:40:23
Just to clarify some issues regarding this postponement. This news about a family member of the Edge came out in the newspapers in IRELAND some time ago. What was stated was, that a child of his was ill-but no details of the name of the child or illness were given.This child's name was not relased by the Irish media. This information was known by Irish fans for a long time BEFORE it was leaked internationally. It has lead to a lot of speculation-but nothing has been offically confirmed regarding the family members identity
From: knappevent on 2006-03-11 16:49:02
Bono has song some lines at the end of Zoo Station, last played concert. (Hang on litlle Siam, daddy's coming home soon) Not easy to hear, but it's there. So they did now it allready by then. Must be a difficult concert to play, knowing that one of the kids is ill, and the upcoming events must be postponed. As in the most comments i've read about this, all fans share the same wishes: Take as long as needed guys, and all the fan thoughts are with them! On the other side: Due to the same relative illnes, the Vertigo tour started later as planned. Normally there is more time between the concerts (first leg) but they have managed to hold up the planned concerts, but all played in a shorter period. Going "on the road" after such an expieriance, makes me having deep respect for all of them.I just hope fot Matt, that the concerts will be resceduled... can't wait for hew pics ;-)
From: Matt on 2006-03-11 19:25:35
I think that came up over one year ago by an British newspaper first. Edge took them to court and won. Thats why there are so many speculations. They may get some problems if details are published. I think it is right that media should not write about that and it does not really matter who had it published first if you ask me. Thats something nobody should publish and it would be great if we can stop to post any speculations or "news" about that here. We should respect the privacy of each band member. I don't want to remove comments like I did earlier today. I'm sure most people here will understand this.

Bono has a live interview tomorrownight at australian channel ABC or something like it... and he probably will talk about what's happening.. :) and for the Bonogals a little present XD Bono in bathrobe, sydney, yesterday.. and the kid is not one of his.. big discussion on PLEBA, but it's not one of his.. it's from one of their friends.. ^^ http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2006/03/11/1141701733132.html*snicker* bono in a white robe, with white socks... and green shades... very fashionable there ;)*2nd picture*http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/3373/260bonosydney20pi.jpg

I just got a call from my hubby(he is in Australia right now) and he said that he decided to go on the famous Sydney Harbor Bridge. When you get finnished climbing, there are pictures you can buy of yourself going across. They post all the famous people that go on it. Guess who is there. Our man Bono and his kids. He also saw a pic of the bass player for Greenday on there, Mike Dirnt. I wish I had seen this post before I talked to him to see if he had seen the interview or not.
From: Susanne on 2006-03-13 09:34:02
Hehee... Oh btw, I finally saw the Grammy's yesterday... Well as I had thought, the Finnish television had cut it to last two hours, and when they (U2) were giving their thanks speechs, they only showed Bono's part and cut the rest... :( So I didn't see Adam giving a little speech, Boomie, and I couldn't be mad for interrupting Larry since they didn't even show that! But anyway, I'm glad at least I saw U2, even though that MJB was on stage with them. Otherwise I thought the Grammy's were a little boring, could be though that there's was no excitement for me anymore.

thanks matt , Bono seems hopeful I'll take that as a good sign !
From: boomcha on 2006-03-15 12:26:55
Susi, they show the Finland episode with Conan O´Brien tonight here!! Have to watch it... Sorry that its only half an hour long and not the full programm cause he said the whole show will be about his trip!! Will be lots of fun I think..
From: Ingrid on 2006-03-15 17:17:12
a little bit of news from atu2.com@U2 reader Fiona points us toward an interview Bono did today with New Zealand's "The Rock" radio. It's available in four parts and covers some of the same topics Bono discussed on the Enough Rope program in Australia Monday night. But perhaps of most interest is Bono's comments on what he plans to do with the band's time off between now and November."The thing I'm most excited about is writing some new material for U2. That's what I want to do more than anything right now.... We're having a great time on tour, but the thing you miss the most is the chance to take a few days out to write, to sit at the piano, to play the guitar, and in my case, to play with the kids."Bono ends the interview by thanking U2 fans "for their patience at this time. We really, really appreciate it." XD so maybe it won't take them four years to get a new one out!

The Conan show was really funny. It seems he had a good time in Finland :)BTW, I was able to put all my flights on hold so the November dates can come :)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-03-16 00:34:54
Thank you Ingrid , I have been wanting to hear Bono speak french for a very long time , and I love the long hair ! is there any way to save it ?
From: Octu2 on 2006-03-16 02:40:13
I'm happy for you Matt, hope all the dates get confirmed soon,but most important, I hope the ill family member gets well :)
From: Susanne on 2006-03-16 10:54:32
They showed Conan's Finland episode yesterday here too, and I did drop couple of times off the sofa with laughter, it was very very funny. :) Glad to hear Matt that you are still able to see them playing. :)Oh and Ing, I don't have Real player, one has to pay to get it, right? I was trying to download it from web to watch the interview, but I don't want to give information about myself for it... So I'm not probably able to watch that, or do you know any way?
From: boomcha on 2006-03-16 12:06:34
Hihi was very funny indeed....esp. the look on his face in the sauna... And were this all real people at the airport or did you pay them to be there??? Glad for you Matt and now I hope that they move Hawaii to next year and I am going than again :-))

From: Octu2 on 2006-03-16 17:59:08
That is a funny clip! I watched a 45min one the other day on that same site. It was the MTV documentary. Isn't Connan O'Brian too funny!!! He is eventually going to take the place of another late night host by the name of Jay Leno in 2009. I cna't wait,since Connan is on very late here and I can't stay up that late. My VCR isn't working so I can never tape it.I would love to see that one of him going to Finland.
From: Ingrid on 2006-03-16 18:00:45
uhm susanne, I thought realplayer is free.. I ahve it free... just fill in random information... they cant check it anywayz! and a fake email! otherwise they'll spam you with shite.... and yes you can save it, and I'll try to make it into a .wmv, but I'm not sure if my program can change .rmpsif you want to sve it, just use the google trick^^ (paste link, save target as)
From: Matt on 2006-03-16 21:43:51
@Octu2: Use the feedback form on this site to mail me and I give you the link to the Conan Finland show. It is around 350MB and looks pretty good.

matt on atu2.com you can find info about the NZ and Aussie shows, they have new deals or so!
From: Matt on 2006-03-23 22:45:03
Can't see anything new on atu2. Holding the tickets is advised since the beginning of all this.

Hey Matt Thanks for the Conan clip. I can hear the audio,but I can't see the video. I have to download something before I can see it. My hubby is going to try and help me. Thanks again.
From: Matt on 2006-03-25 15:05:23
Download the free player package from divx.com. This should work.
From: ingrid on 2006-03-25 20:58:23
here you can find the new video for One... with Mary J Blidge.. it's less worse than the live one tho I still think she rapes the song!it's gonna be a single.. http://www.savefile.com/files/8322244
From: fanny on 2006-03-25 23:11:29
All respect to Mary, but...Bono could have sung a bit more!!=( not only at the beginning and the chorus=(go home Mary J.!!!<---- I didn't say that!! Would never even have thought about it!!=P
From: Susanne on 2006-03-27 08:40:39
Hehehee Fanny... And I didn't hear you say that... ;) Well, I try to avoid listening One with MJB, 'cause everytime the song is playing inside my head, she's in it too, and I don't like that at all.Oct, were you able to watch that Conan show? If you were, what did you like about it? And Boomie, you asked this a while ago, but those people at the Helsinki-Vantaa airport, they really were there just to say hi to Conan. There was about 2000 people there. :)
From: Octu2 on 2006-03-27 19:25:18
I haven't had a chance to see the Connan show yet. My youngest daughter had her "Sweet Sixteen" birthday this past weekend,so I haven't been at the computer. I will have to download the free thing that Matt said. I miss any new pictures or news of them:( Does anyone know how to see Connan's "U2 secrets" they replayed it on Connan last week,but I am unable to tape it.
From: Ingrid on 2006-03-28 15:39:29
YAY XD my ex bf said I could use his fathers credit card to buy some U2 merchandise online :D now I can finally get some U2 shirts... I'll get the vertigo one for sure.. and I'm thinking about the Zooropa one from u2.com aswell... and a button ofcourse ;)and I will pay his father the money back XDalso oct, sure.. but there are two of them :)Secrets part 1http://s41.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1J6BXHLGNOWCE2KUJUYZILCUW2secrets part 2(funniest, but sadly not shown on television!)http://s41.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=25V7DEWYOWEQF0IXZEZWI9QVL0

Edge: Bono hits us, sometimes really hard.... *pulls serious sad face*I mean, if I didn't know Bono better, I'd believe him! he looked so serious XDno prob for that, you can find tons of great stuff on interference, this thread as a great bunch(I'm galeongirl there btw)http://forum.interference.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=192
From: Octu2 on 2006-03-29 21:21:57
Ingrid, I was thinking the same about the Edge. His little eyes looked scared. I had to re play that a couple of times, because it made me laugh so much. Larry was quite funny as well. wonder why Adam didn't do one? I also have gone on the interference site and it is a lot of fun. Thanks to your direct link, I saw that someone put up the old Vh1 Rock ledgends on U2(2001) and that was very fun to watch. When they talked about giving up in Berlin,that made me sad,but I think the song "One" is so special. That is my favorite, and I guess that is for a reason,since it was the one that sparked the fire again. You can feel it when you hear the song. Thanks again girlfriend for the links and just being on here. Don't you wish some of the old crew like Soulcat and Zookeeper would come back for a chat??? Come back guys, only for a bit????
From: Ingrid on 2006-03-30 21:29:43
:( I got an error with the 2001 thing, and tuwie can't get it online till the weekend... she uploaded it again, but it ran out before I could access it... now I have to wait for it... :) btw there's news from Bono again XD he was being his witty self again and attending a 100 year anniversary of Beckett(irish writer) and he did a sort of funny thing with a thick irish accent!the beard is really pretty btw! to die/drool for!the RTE report: http://www.rte.ie/arts/2006/0330/becketts.htmlthe video: http://dynamic.rte.ie/av/2128037.smilBono's little pastiche(laughing guaranteed!): http://dynamic.rte.ie/av/2128068.smilthey work with Realplayer... y'know the trick, copy-paste into google, save target as!

From: Susanne on 2006-03-31 08:33:09
Heheheee.. I'm still here... Waiting for Ingrid's links and enjoying them... Thanks for the last one, Ing, was very funny. Only I don't have that much time anymore, have to study real hard, be at work 5 days a week and then I have been spending nights at reading for exams. Don't worry Oct, surely everybody comes back when U2 starts finishing the tour on autumn.. But I'm hanging around as long as you guys are here... :)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-03-31 10:17:54

From: Octu2 on 2006-04-01 02:46:11
yay, good to hear that some of you are still around,it was getting a bit lonely.I'm going to visit my dad in Chicago until April 6th,so i won't be on here. If I get bored maybe I can go on his computer,but most likely I will be withough a computer for a few days. Until then.......Peace out.
From: sushi on 2006-04-01 04:47:37
hoy yoy yoy. this has not been very fun. I wont go into detail but basically the power went whoosh the computer went with it and we havent been able to get it on for a while. it has stunk. But anyway I think it's fixed. humm. Not much to say. =( I feel really out of it. we don't subscribe to Time anymore, and that was the only way I knew what was going on other than the internet, then that died. People were going around saying Cheney shot some guy like two weeks after it happened and I thought "WHA since when..." *sigh* it's rather depressing not knowing what's going on in the world when I used to be the most knowing person in the school. In other *interesting* news... our asst principal has a shaved head and me and my friends gave him a nickname and we decided to make up this whole thingy about his nickname, and now we're having a debate about what color hair he has, so I bet somebody money that he has brown hair but she didnt believe me so i asked him and this is how the conversation wentMe "What color hair do you have?"Him "I dunno."Me "You really don't know?"Him "Well it looks blonde when its short but it's brown when it grows out. Why do you ask?"Me "Uhh... I was... just wondering."And then I told my friend she was wrong and she still hasnt paid up. It was very interesting. We went around all day saying to random people "What color hair do you have" and then we'd both say at the same time "I DUNNO" What fun. Then during lunch we went into the locker room in the gym and I almost tripped over a string tied between two lockers, then I kept walking out the door and the principal was right there (I was chewing gum... its not allowed) and so I turned around really fast and speedwalked back into the locker room and tripped right over the string. It was really funny. I'm already laughing just remembering it.
From: fanny on 2006-04-01 11:33:20
hey sushi!!!! It has been a looong time!! Too bad your computer broke down=( I hope it's fixed now!I got this message on the computer yesterday: You have a virus...well that's a very positive message to get, isn't it?!=Pgod, I'm so busy with school right now..we're going to have these test soon again, which is important for our yeargrades. And there aren't too little homework, either...*sigh*Anyway hope all of you are doing fine!!And btw have a nice time in ch-ch-ch-chicago, oct=)

Maybe can get some connections (I wish) - oh well - got my Music Rising shirts (love those) and just having fun with Ingrids links and missing our boys.

From: sushi on 2006-04-04 02:03:14
Yay.... people!! I need a way to get a lot of money fast. I'm thinking babysitting but I don't really know how to advertise or whatever.... hmmm. O well. I'll figure it out. How long have the boys been off tour? They seem to have some sort of bad karma with family ilnesses. They postponed the tour a month because of an illness, now the tour is off because of an illness, and they both happened around the same time. Creepy. Does anyone like Radiohead? I've found I'm totally in love with them and R.E.M. I liked both of them before but not this much. GUESS WHAT *excited* BWAHAHAHAAA I CAN PLAY DRUMS!!!!!!!!!! I played a basic rhythm thingy and was GOOD at it!!!! We have our own drum langugage. it's pretty funny. Twin cymbals: Kesshhk Snare w/o snare: Pah Snare w/ snare: make a raspberry noise Mounted tom: Ba (second beat) Da Bass: Boom Hi-hat: Chee Floor tom: Bum. I think I got all the names right. We tried to figure out how to play some other songs and played American Idiot w/ a White Stripes thingy, me on guitar, my friend on drums and vocals cuz she's skilled that way. We kinda stunk but I think we did ok considering we had learned how to play it about 2 seconds earlier.Has ZK been around lately? I assume Soulie Slate and Boomie are off... who else is here?
From: fanny on 2006-04-05 15:16:35
sushi, are you telling us that you are thinking of buying yourself a drumkit?! that's darn cool!!!!=DI don't know how much a drumkits costs, but if you're going for the "larryexspensive stuff" you really need to cash out with half a bank!!=P
From: lalatoots on 2006-04-05 20:44:05
Yea, my sons a drummer and it does get quite expensive - lots of luck!!
From: sushi on 2006-04-06 02:37:55
Yeah I am kinda... but there's no room in the house so I hope we move soon. I hate this house. We're actually thinking of starting a band. My friends and I are thinking we might start a bank account or something and pool all our money so we can buy some cool stuff like Larry. And get some good guitars like Edge. We can't decide who's playing bass because nobody knows how and everyone wants to play something else, so we thought maybe we could all learn to play everything and switch off when we got bored of whatever we were playing right then. I asked my science teacher if he would play bass in our band because he played bass in college and he said, "Oh yeah, totally because it's been like, two weeks since I last played it in college. Maybe I could play air bass." And then I thought maybe we could be an air band. That would be really funny. So enough about me how are you guys doing??
From: U2Trinity on 2006-04-06 09:35:05
oh sushi , a air band , thats funny lol .and about babysitting maybe you can post a note at a elementary school .one more thing as Larry said "it's all about the drums."Oct should be back soon , she is off visiting her dad .
From: U2Trinity on 2006-04-06 09:48:51
I just saw your post , sorry to hear about your dad lalatoots , so your son's band is doing well , thats great , what kind of music do they play ?
From: fanny on 2006-04-07 15:51:53
oh my, I didn't notice your comment about you dad lala. I'm so sorry for you and your family=(wow, it's so empty here right now..hope people are starting to come back soon! And sushi, about the drumkit: Maybe you should send Mari'ette a mail or so? She plays drums, so she might know a bit about prices and such;) How are all of you guys doing,anyway?=)
From: lalatoots on 2006-04-07 15:56:35
Thanks Trinity - its been really tough - my sons band plays metal - not exactly my cup of tea, but they are really good (IMO) I know what you mean Sushi about having room in the house for a band. With my son being the drummer (and you can't transport a drumkit easily) the band practices at my house. We actually took down a wall between 2 of the bedrooms in our house and soundproofed the room for the band. Hopefully yall can find a bass player and get your band going.

Hi guys! I'm back from my mini trip to Chicago and Viva Las Vegas. Not places I would go willingly. My dad lives in Chicago and my father in law lives near Vegas,so we thought we would do a Dad trip and visit them. Vegas is really a site to behold! Funny thinking about our guys there filming "Still Haven't Found ...." we did stay at the Ritz Carlton, which made the trip bearable. I like Chicago,so that wasn''t so bad. When we were there I imagined our guys there too :) Right before I went on my trip, I saw the funniest car licence plate "rim" it said " I break for Bono" funny huh?! Anyway, Hiya sushi! Are you living in the mountains like the unibomber? I felt out of it at my dad's since he is anti tv. So, I know what you mean about being disconnected. Lala soory about your Dad,hope you are doing well.I need to catch up on all the sites and get back in the groove.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-04-09 07:01:39
I brake for Bono , love that . I was thinking of having a plate for the front of my car that would say , the goal is soul .I hope the dads are fine . wow the ritz carlton isn't that where our boys like to stay , nice digs .

Ya, Trinity that is where they have stayed at times. If they did more than one show in Vegas, my guess is that they may have stayed there since it is out of the way and very plush. My hubby got a good deal on the rooms,since he travels all over the world. He got some points towards a reduced rate there. Still was a bit steep,but boy was it nice!! Love the beds. I hope there are some pictures of Adam and his gal. I don't think I have seen her. OK Ingrid do you have a link for a photo????

Aww he looks fresh as a daisy with that hair cut! Looks a bit on the reddish side. Very cute. I also read that he will be in the United States the first week of May. In Michigan I believe. Wish there was more news on them,and hope everything is ok with Edge and his little angel.

*can't breathe*Adam's getting married and BONO CUT HIS HAIR *dies**ahem* Excuse me. Hi Oct. Nice to see you here.. nice to be here. =) I went to a bar mitzvah on Saturday. It was really fun. The actual ceremony was spoken in 80% hebrew and was 2 1/2 hours long so that was less than fun, but the lunch and after-party were great. One of my friends thought he should get bar mitzvah'd because the actual bar mitzvah gets to go to Israel and the other friend wants to so he's "planning" to get bar mitzvah'd. Anyhow. I don't think I'm going to be able to get over Bono's hair. O_O
From: Ingrid on 2006-04-11 15:53:06
*giggle* well a friend of mine made a funny comment about it today(ofcourse I had the picture printed out and in my diary)... she said he looked a bit like a baby chicken XD and she's right!!! ncie timing from Bono (easter...)sushi, it's not THAT bad eh? must say me likes!
From: sushi on 2006-04-11 21:14:28
No, it IS bad!!! I showed the pic to a friend who hates U2 and she said she didn't even think he looked that bad.. in fact she said she thought he looked good with long dark hair and now he has short blond/red hair and she hates it and i hate it toooooooooo....:'(*sniff* I suppose I'll have to get used to it... good heavens I hope his hair grows fast.

Aloha girls...Im in Waikiki right now and read the news bout Adam..actually i cant read it cause i have no idea how to work this stupid mac puter...they even dont have the U2 ipod here...this island sucks really! No wonder they cancelled the gig here. were going back tomorrow and i cant wait to be back in freezing Germany!! see you!!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-04-12 02:19:53
Well, I think his hair looks cute,maybe if he dyes it a darker color it will look better. It is Larry that should follow suit though and cut his hair. Hey boomie, not an island person huh? Neither am I!! I would rather go to Germany than Hawaii! They don't make the U2 iPod any more so of course you wouldn't find it there. Plus they are kind of behind the times over there, even though they are part of the U.S.Nice to hear from you though Boomie,and sage journey back home.:)
From: fanny on 2006-04-12 09:08:54
hi everyone! I'm off to Sweden for a couple of days now, on a little "skiingholiday"=) Maybe Bono cut his hair, just to get Larry to understand that he should do it too?=PI feel like we have to go through all the "U2 stages" again with that haircut...now it's a bit pop-ish, and in a couple of months it will grow to another stage, and after a good while we'll be back on Vertigo again;) Good to have you back oct, and boomie as well when you get home again=)I'll see you guys in a few days! Byebye=)

I long for all the vacation time that they get!! My next trip will be to the south of France and Spain in August,can't wait for that. Maybe I'll see the guys in the south of France this summer :) Wish there was more news on them too.
From: lalatoots on 2006-04-12 20:15:02
Because of Katrina and the two months the kids here were out of school, we only get Good Friday off - not much time for anything:( Happy happy for everyone who gets a break - definately missing new pics - love that new har cut;)
From: lalatoots on 2006-04-12 20:32:43
Obviously I meant love the new hair cut!!! Sounds like something really wonderful to look forward to Oct.
From: Octu2 on 2006-04-13 18:54:20
Isn't this sad that we have no new pic's? I guess it will be like this until possibly November:( Then after that we will have nothing until they make a new cd. I guess that all hinges on The Edge's situation though.We can make this picture go down in history by commenting on it until November? Or will Matt get irritated with us using this photo?:) I hope not.
From: sushi on 2006-04-13 22:14:28
we'd probably overload the system or something it'd be like FLAGRANT SYSTEM ERROR COMPUTER OVER. Or something like that. lol. Why is the tour waiting until november?? That's an awfully long way away... last time this happened the tour was ony postponed for like a month now it's what.. six months or something?? =((((
From: Ingrid on 2006-04-14 18:47:34
I heard because most of the venues U2 was going to be in are booked till november... also, we definately need new pics! and I wanna see more pics of the haircut!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-04-15 07:30:20
Maybe it is put off until November because it will give which ever family member time to get well??
From: Susanne on 2006-04-16 10:59:41
Oh wow, I just noticed Bono's short hair... Looks good to me. Well it really does feel like nothing's going on in U2-land.... :( There isn't even any new pics to love... How can we survive until November????????
From: fanny on 2006-04-16 14:25:49
hi again everyone!=)I agree, things are standing pretty still around the guys by now. And it's a looong time to wait!! Maybe we just have to dress up like the guys and go on a little tour?0_o hehe..I don't think that would be the best way to solve this=Pby the way U2.com has confirmed Adams engagement now=DHow are all of you guys doing, anyway?
From: Octu2 on 2006-04-16 23:46:01

Very nice shots there Matt... loved them all! Like the birthday thoughts as wel... did't know of it... could drop this one & a few black and whites in ;-)And ladies, gues what: AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHJust heared our American girlfriend (where we stayed during the Chicago concerts) is going to the Economics Club Dinner!!!!!!Here men talked to his boss; she's a member there! She already knew they wanted to go and was making arrangements!! No cameras allowed, doggoneit...I suggested a camera phone, for pics & recording the speech. Any suggestions anyone??
From: knappevent to Matt on 2006-04-18 19:23:36
forgot to ask:Is that "our" Anton Corbijn, in the back of the shot "Electric Co. in the Rain"?? Really great shots there!!
From: Matt on 2006-04-18 23:19:39
Yes, that is Corbijn.
From: Octu2 on 2006-04-19 02:38:34
I went on the site for the photos and could not see them? I clicked on the u2boy as seller and got nothing. I would love to see them and make a bid.

I really WANT pictures from there, I mean, all we have are 2 pics of Bono's new hair since sunday 9th ... need----more----pics!can't you and matt go over to dublin to shoot some? XD
From: boomcha on 2006-04-20 12:09:11
Dont get the message bout Adams wedding but anyway. If its true, its nice. And she is nice..so natural... I would say. And funny fanny that you linked the pics at one of Matts other sites...Bs short hair..its so irish-red, hehe. And wow he still looks like the good old POP days with that...unbelievable...but a lot better!!!So, Im finally back from the island. No, Oct I dont think that im a not-island-person. i stayed at some "european" islands and really enjoyed it. I love the ocean and dive into but this time...the whole thing went wrong right from the start when i didnt get tickets in first place. And then they had a big sewage problem over there the last weeks with all the rain and TV and papers said that its not save to go into the water and even not on the sand! Isnt that bad?? First the boys blowed the thing for me and then not even the beach and the weather. Was really a su**ing holiday... I was so looking forward to be there with them at their last show on Hawaii (only the thought made me goosebumps!) and then everything went wrong. So, in a strange way Im through with them. Thats why Im not here anymore cause Im just not interested in what ever has to do with them. Im so done!!! Was so shocked when the news came and something died in me ... and i thought...how can they go on like nothing happened???What a negative post this is going to be but i wanted to tell you and say good bye. im coming round every now and then and maybe i get back to them but doesnt look so at the moment... so stay save and keep the spirit alive....boomie!

here's the pic a bit lighter, you can clearly see the black short locks.. damn he looks so many years younger!!!!!*drool* and that smirk of his... dangerous man!http://img105.imageshack.us/img105/4715/bonopaulmcg19040624sk.jpg
From: Ingrid on 2006-04-20 20:45:52
Boomie, I just read your comment( yea I know late, was abit in a rush when posting the last stuff)... and it feels to me you're blaming them for ruining your holiday... They can't help it that they canceled the tour.. I mean Bono can be out to party, adam even... btu you don't see or hear anything from Edge or Larry.. so it's one of their family members... and you can't blame them if it's somebody close to them they don't want to leave behind.. ok it's a lot of things that went wrong for you, as usual trouble comes with a lot... and it's not happy, I'm feeling sorry you had a sucky holiday, but hey, there are more holidays to come! better luck next time! Don't give up on the band just because of this... it's not worth it! Remember all the time how you felt about them... how happy the music makes you.. and let's not forget Mr Thee Edge.. what are we gonna do without or favorite Edgebunny defending him and insulting Bono for us? we NEED you!! please stay!

Hi , everyone not much going on in the U2 camp but looking forward to more hair cut pics . my class at work will be starting this wednesday , it's been so long since I have been in school , I'm really stressing .

Hi triny :)http://scatterolight.blogspot.com/ from last night in Monaco... Bono's travelling a lot these days.. prolly vacationing in his house in France ^^
From: Octu2 on 2006-04-24 05:12:04
I'm with you Ingrid, as far as Boomie goes. So Boomie, if things aren't perfect then you go run and hide from them? I'm not asking you to stay if you don't want to,but wow,you can't give them a break with something this sad!!! As soon as I heard that it was probably Edge's little girl that is sick, I was wondering how he could go out on tour for as long as they did! As you know, they almost didn't tour at all because I think she was already sick. They go out on tour anyway with a sick child,or recovering child ,and you give them no credit for that?! SEE Ya then!! You claim to be an Edge girl and you show no compassion for his daughter?? If there are other reasons then Ok but if it is becuase of your botched holiday,then that is real sad.
From: boomcha on 2006-04-24 12:04:02
hoho girls cool down...i knew it sounded a bit harsh...wasnt meant that way but i didnt know how to write it...sorry.of course do i care bout Edgeys little girl (thats the most important thing...not to compare with a stupid tour!) but its still the way it is... cant help it. Before that i already thought...always the same pictures..all the drooling was gone. i do love them but no more in such a fanatic way. i listen to their music and tell everybody how great they are..but its all cooled down a bit. thats all. was too much of boooing .... sorry for all the trouble..so you see its better to leave this place as i dont have to say anything good. remember thats what we tell all the a**holes when they come here and talk s**t bout the boys ;-)
From: Ingrid on 2006-04-24 14:13:08
you're not talking crap about them eh? so why leave? also, maybe because there's not much news and not many new pics your interet has calmed down... last newsflashes tell us that Edge is in Vegas and Bono back in Dublin... Morleigh and Edge have a house somewhere in america.. but I can't remember where it was..
From: Susanne on 2006-04-24 20:05:33
Uh, what's going on here??? Well Boomie, if you're leaving this place, take care of yourself and all good things to you... Sorry though, I never found Nobuttwonder's wonderbutt, and surely I'm not going to find it, if you're not here anymore... ;) So aufwiedersehen für Boomie (sorry, my Deutsch is bit rusty, haven't used it in three years...). Hope the rest of you are going to hang around.. or at least come back on autumn...
From: Octu2 on 2006-04-25 02:28:47
Ok Ok Boomie,It just came off that way. I know things have been slow and not a whole bunch of fun to be on here since the cancelation of the rest of the tour,but I still miss them and the energy,so I will say for a bit. Did anyone notice that ZK came back for a second in the photo below? That was a surprise!!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-04-25 19:08:25
did anyone actually saw the pic I posted just before Boomies post? btw knappe if you read this.. a long while ago you said you were gonna make a poster of this pretty pic.. is the possibility still there for me to get one or isn't it?

Hi Sushi! Cool drawing. You captured his mouth pretty good. I'm not sure on the old faux mohawkish look in that one pic of him standing by the car and that man. I think he went out of control with the dye.

From: Octu2 on 2006-05-18 20:10:11
Ingrid, Just curious what you will be getting from Edun? Even the t-shirts are quite costly. The clothing line is sold at the very expensive department store "Saks Fifth Avenue" I went to look at it and it was neat stuff and I really liked it,but thought it was pretty expensive. Did anyone out there read the slam against U2 and Coldplay by Eric Clapton? I thought he was way off base on what he said,not to mention putting them together. He said that even one of them( I guess Chris Martin) dances like Bono. Ya right. Poor old Eric Clapton I think is losing it!!! I really respected him until I read that.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-05-19 08:24:46
hi everyone , wow I am suprised that Clapton slammed u2 , where did you read that Oct ? man I have been really stressed out lately , I found out a week ago that the company I work for will be closing the department that I work in and we will all be layed off , it sucks , and on top of this I am taking classes at work . our class is continuing . so going to school and loosing my job just sucks !
From: Ingrid on 2006-05-19 14:25:33
yea oct I read that... >< chris martin can never dance as dorky as Bono and still be cute, since he'll NEVER be cute! XD And Bono's dancing skills are masterhehe what I"ll be getting... lemme get a pic XDthe hoody I want badly... and the shirt aswell... can I get the model with it too??http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/1057/bonohoody3kp.jpg
From: Octu2 on 2006-05-19 19:26:47
I told my husband about what Eric Clapton said,and he said that Eric is notorious for being a growch and that is why he doesn't stay with a group for very long,and besides he stole George Harrisons wife from him. So what ever he has to say is not to be taken seriously. What a turkey!! Good luch with getting your stuff,hope you get what you want.

I love it!btw, the Armani shades from the RED campaign are available in holland :) I got my email this week.. hmm might aswell get them... but I gotta find a way to make sure my parents don't see it XD they'd think I"m nuts spending 113 euros on sunglasses!
From: sushi on 2006-05-29 05:24:54
smurfs have taken over the world. ugh.I've discovered something really REALLY weird.I stopped listening to U2 because Bono cut his hair. Thank god they're not on tour.Not for the reasons they're not. But because if they were, I'd have to come here for new pictures.But I'd have to endure his hair.Or rather...The remains of it. *crying*Okeeeeeday. I'm ooooookay. Nooooot really. I'll just have to live with the old pictures. Of long hair. Beautiful hair. Stunning hair that one could depend on to run your fingers through and have it feel really nice instead of running your fingers through it and having it feel really fuzzy. Uuuuuuuuggghhhhhhh.Anyhow. I will be here. When I remember to come here. In the meantime I'll be living up to my title of REBEL with a cause, listening to The Clash and the Ramones and rocking out to a song that sings about rioting. I hope this site can save me.
From: Ingrid on 2006-05-29 11:53:10

From: sushi on 2006-05-29 23:03:39
I don't like it. I like the regular pop chop. but not the atomic pop chop.ANYHOOOO. How's everyone? Who is everyone anymore?? Who's been here lately or at all? I see I haven't missed much in terms of the band, Matt only posted two news things since I last came here a few months ago. But what's happened with the Bbabes and Edgebunnies etc? Or are there any edgebunnies on here??

Hey girl, what is wrong with the B-man's hair!!! There are some killer pictures of him on other sites with his short hair. He looks fresh as a daisy and it is perfect for the summer months. Check out u2 feedback web site!!! hope you re think it.
From: sushi on 2006-06-01 00:49:39
I dono what's wrong with it. I just don't like it.BTW I found a Larry twin, Paul Simonon of The Clash. I think he's pretty much what Larry would look like if he played guitar or bass, and was a little less conservative with his hair, and minus the clothes.http://clashphotorockers.free.fr/scene.htmclick on Simonon up at the top, and you can look at all the pages, but i think some of the ones on page 4 look most like Larry. It's pretty cool.
From: Octu2 on 2006-06-01 21:16:38
Hey you're right Sushi, that guy kind of resembles Larry a bit. I read on MTV site that Bono has been writing many songs and can't wait to get working on a new album!!! Yay.
From: fanny on 2006-06-01 23:20:53
aaah! On one of the pictures he almost looks identical with Larry!! I wonder how a guitar Larry would be?=PAnd Oct, I recently read that Bono has been taking pianolessons as well!! How cool is that?!=)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-06-02 09:15:26
hi everyone , I just started reading Killing Bono , It's like being in dublin in Bono's early years . since I started this book I have been dreaming about him & dublin, it's so cool because I rarely dream about him . loving it .so cool that Bono is writing and learning piano maybe this will be like Zooropa all over again . I just hope whoever is ill will be fine .
From: Ingrid on 2006-06-02 19:00:45
Killing Bono is a great book! esp. the piece about Adam is hillarious!in the either the last or second to last vid I posted above, you can find the piece of Bono talking about the 8(!) new songs he's written and the piano lessons :)Edge is back to Popera a bit aswell... in Monaco he wore a hat.. Edge ears!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-06-03 19:31:57
Hey have you guys seen the new video with Mary J. Blige and u2? All in black and white. I must say Bono looks funny trying to rock out with the guitar when Mary is singing!!:) When the show Adam's face,he looks a bit stiff and not happy to be there. Edge looks cool,so does larry. Don't get me wrong,Bono is adorable in it,but when he goes for it on the guitar on the back ground,somehow, it doesn't fit him. I loved "Killing Bono" It was a unique look into the beginings of u2 told by a pal. I too loved the stories of Adam and how Larry didn't liked to be bugged by the girls outside his window when they were practicing. Most everyone int he group comes off pretty good,except Adam at times.
From: sushi on 2006-06-04 05:03:18
Ingrid which pic was it?? I heard about the piano lessons but it never struck me he might be using the piano in his songs. lol. i'm slow. TRINY have you read the Bono on Bono book!!! It's great. I seriously highly recommend it.

Hey guys, did you check out the BRAND NEW U2 iPod? the whole think is black metal not scratchable plastic and of corse holds a ton of video time and 7,500 songs!! so Ingrid I lost track of you getting the ipod. did you just end up with a regular one or a nano?
From: sushi on 2006-06-08 15:59:06
omigoodness.*am so jealous*Umm.Man I'm spoiled. I've gone through two iPod Minis, a Nano, and I have a Video right now.But I really want the new U2 iPod.
From: Octu2 on 2006-06-08 17:34:57
Wow sushi how did you manage to do that? I still have the same one. So does my daughter. Are you being naughty and not taking care of them?
From: Ingrid on 2006-06-08 17:53:41
*tears hairs out*THEY REALLY HATE ME!!!!><I had my ipod a few months ago... and they were SURE there wouldn't be a U2 video ipod... AAAAAAAAAAAARGH!now I gotta find somebody who wants to buy my ipod! me want U2 ipod!!!
From: sushi on 2006-06-09 02:46:16
No I take as good care of them as I possibly can, but being a teenager I'm sure you know how hard that is. Especially for me. My friends will testify, but they don't need to. I just think the iPods were sort of made to be broken. I mean what's with the stupid fiberglass stuff on the Nano and Vid? It's idiotic. I cant hardly see my screen cuz its so scratched up!! And the iPod minis are just old enough to be not very foolproof or unbreakable or whatever. My mini broke on it's own. The other one, I dont know what happened to it. I certainly didnt do it because I was just borrowing it so I took GREAT care to take GREAT care of it, so it probably broke on its own too. The Nano lost itself... not my fault the thing is smaller than a credit card. But the VIDEO.... oohhhhhh. The video iPod is nearly perfect. Nearly. I love it though. =))) Santa was very nice to me this year... that's how I got the video. =P But there's absolutely no way to explain how awful I felt and still feel about losing the Nano... so don't think I'm ungrateful or am a total consumer or anything... I'm a materialist (staying true to 99.99% European heritage) and I have a really weird emotional attachment to anything I own or used to own. I AM VERY GOOD TO MY IPODS.
From: Octu2 on 2006-06-09 18:58:56
When I first read about the new U2 iPod, I was thinking about you Ingrid,since last recollection was that you did just go out and get a regular one. If I were you I would try and sell it also and get the new one! Sounds like they have changed the body of it to be less scratch prone. Sushi, remember me saying that the nano was made out of that rediculous material that was going to scratch!? I remember when they launched the darn thing. I went to our down town Apple store that same day,and the store wasn't even open for 5 hours, when I looked at the nano and the new video one, they were scratched to hell!! I love my old u2 iPod since I got the super cool cover for it and it is still in pefect condition,and I love the shinny silver back. The new one is cool but I have this obsession with silver ,and the new one is black metal. Still neat,and I think you should get one Ingrid.Sushi I have heard that some of the minis were breaking down,so maybe you got a bum one. My daughter is a teenager and still has hers though after one plus year. When they launched the new U2 one on the 6th,my first inclination was to go out and buy it for my husband,so we would kind of have amtching ones and then I could watch videos on his. Poor guy right now has the shuffle that he got free by answering some questions on line. I'm the spoiled one that has the bigger one :) Good luch Ingrid with your persuit of the new one.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-06-10 09:27:25
sushi , the nano lost itself , lol your ipod dilemma was funny .so oct , the new ipod is just black , i'm with you on the silver back . but I also love the red , black combo . I really tired I don't think I am making any sense . better go to bed , good nite everyone .
From: Ingrid on 2006-06-10 16:52:03
Ì LOVE the black black new ipod.. shiny.. I think I'll wait till we have a new pc WITH windows XP, and then I'll buy the new one, so I can put songs on it... and I'll put mine up for sale, on ebay or so... I'm sure people will buy it for 275 euros, a new one is 329.. it only has two scratches in the left upper corner of the screen, so it's in very good state :) I really am a slave to society... anything that has U2 on it, me wants!btw, I am making my very own Africa shirt.. I got the prints for the front and letters on my pc, now I need to find out what kind of paper I need to print it on and iron it on a shirt... I know it's transfer paper, only the dutch translation of my dictionary is not correct.. my mother doesn't know exactly what kind of paper it is, but I"ll find that out :)
From: Octu2 on 2006-06-10 19:33:50
Ingrid if you have and office suppy store,you may be able to find that paper. Or a craft store. Is the computer up-dating soon? You can't blink without Apple dropping a new line. right around Christmas I bet,they will get rid of the new U2 iPod mark my word. So, if you wait too long,you may miss again :( I'm annoyed with Apple as you can tell. I have been getting many alerts to tech sites that have forums about what you think about the new one,and I have had to defend our group on many of them. It is surprising how many people DON'T like U2 and have venom to spew!!! My thoughts exactly Trinity about the nano walking off on it's own ;) Sushi sushi keep a tight reign on the next one girl!!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-06-11 14:21:23
well they should buy it this summer... and if they don't... well.... I'll just buy the U2 ipod, and wait for them to buy a new pc, and then sell my old one XDI am NOT gonna lose this one! god I can still remember how grumpy I was because the other one was gone >< so unfair!I wonder if Knappe still checks this site... :) I want to know if he can still email me a large size of this pic, so I can let the drugstore make a poster of it XD
From: fanny on 2006-06-11 16:43:11
Talking of iPods. I've been very nice with my iPod, and there are hardly any scratch marks on it. But what happens? well, you see it decided to say goodbye and it won't turn on any longer!! argh!>< Luckily there is a guarantee on it! And Ingrid: good luck with getting your U2 iPod! I really hope you'll get one this time!=)
From: knappevent on 2006-06-11 20:18:45
yes girlzzzz.... still checking this site ;-) LOLIts to good for staying away! I'm waiting for the posters myself ingrid... they're buzy, almost vacation you know. This pic has a l,ot of comment now.. wow... Probably i will get some pics of the "nijmegen" open air concert... zoo tv tour... made by an official photographer ;-)
From: Ingrid on 2006-06-12 13:19:57

My sons band got booked for a show in Houston in August-so I guess thats where I will wind up - don't think there is too much to do in Houston, but the venue they are playing at holds about 1100 people, so I'll be a proud mama!!! Hope you catch a glimpse of the boys in France-have fun.

SOULCAT what a site for sore eyes!! I was just wondering the other day if you are at least checking in :) Ingrid,thanks once again for the new info and that DVD along with the new book coming out in September is truly something to look forward to. So happy for you that you finally got your new iPod. How do you like it?I've been gone a few days because I was throwing a surprise party for my oldest daughter who is turning 21. It turned out real fun and she was really surprised!! Hope everyone is having a great summer so far,looks like our man is having fun in France! I hope that he or they are still there in August,when I go down there.Had a nice dream with them last night,one of the ones where you feel like they are so real,and you are there pals when you wake up. Funny huh :)
From: Ingrid on 2006-06-27 11:17:01
oct, I don't LIKE my ipod.. I LOVE IT!!!!!! XDit's sooooo shiny... and pretty!I go to france in august too XD Bono said the band would be recording all summer, and since they're in france now(well Bono and Edge are, the rest prolly too) they might stay there!I'm thinking of asking U2&I for my birhtday this year.. it's expensive, but maybe me parents are willing to buy it for me! I gotta make sure people don't buy me U2 cds, since I already have them all, dito on the dvds XD
From: fanny on 2006-06-27 14:12:12
did you you just say...RECORDING?!?!!=D
From: Octu2 on 2006-06-27 23:04:14
Don't know that they are actually recording,but Bono did say he wanted to get back to the music this summer,so possibly or maybe just jamming away. I sure hope they are back in November to make up all the dates and so that we can have new pictures.
From: Ingrid on 2006-06-28 11:05:30
well, I know we shouldn't trust what BOno says, but yes, he said recording... they're prolly starting some new songs, maybe they'lll play a few when the tour continues... Man I hope they'll play Electrical Storm or Mercy!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-06-30 07:35:20

From: Octu2 on 2006-07-03 20:23:26

From: Octu2/ U2 merchandise alert!!!! on 2006-07-23 19:19:48
Hey guys, for all that live in the United States. Yesterday I scored a cool hard bound book called U2 the Show, it went normally for 35.00 and was being clearenced for 9.95. So, if you have a Barnes and Noble near you check it out!!! I was about ready to leave the store and I saw a whole stack of them. I had wanted the book earlier,but figured it was just on the shows,so I held out for the U2 and i book instead,but hey for 9.95 you can't go wrong. There were some real neat history in the back written on how they put all the shows together and it answers a lot of questions that we had when they were touring. Hope this will help someone out there get the great deal that I did.I think, Ingrid, toward the end of our trip to France we will be in Paris: 15th through the 18th. From the third of August til the 14th or so we will be in the south. Hope you have a bunch of fun!!
From: lalatoots on 2006-07-24 15:46:20
Oct-I got that book about a year ago-awesome pictures in it-it is on my coffee table in the pool room-so everyone who comes in sees it and looks through it-just my way of sharing the U2love:) Didn't get it on clearance though!
From: Octu2 on 2006-07-24 22:36:37
At first I thought it was and OK book, but when I got it home and really looked at it,I was consumed in the photos and what was written in the back. I loved what the guy ,who was the California production person, said about Bono! If you don't remember re read it, it shows what a cool cat guy he is,as if we need reminding :) Now I have two coffee table books of them and a cute little on that my husband got as a joke when he was in France on a business trip. I can't wait for September when the new book comes out that Neil helped write.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-07-25 06:46:53
oct , don't forget about zoo tv , and what book is due in sept . ?
From: Octu2 on 2006-07-25 18:46:47
Trinity, I think the book is called U2 by U2. I think it is written by Neil Mcormick and U2, don't quote me,but I think that is the title. And yes I will bee looking forward to that DVD,since I never saw them in concert during that time. Hello birthday presents for me :)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-07-27 09:27:36
the book and the dvd all in one month :)usually u2 fans have to wait four very long years to get u2 goodies . Thats just to long :( I'm not sure if this is what ingrid posted ,almost 9 minute recording of U2 from Eze is on U2exit.com . I haven't checked it out yet .well I hope oct & ingrid will bring us some really great u2 info. from your trip , and let them know how much they mean to us !

AND I MISSED IT ><can't find anything online either! ACK~!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-01 07:31:23
hi everyone , ingrid you are going to love u2 at the end of the world , it's the best u2 read . XP very cool that is what I have but I have dialup which sucks :( well soon we will have new u2 pics , I wonder if they are going to change the show much when they hit the road . oct , I haven't seen you post any pics on pleba , when you get back from your trip we will have to walk you through it .oct you and ingrid post the most here so it's up to the two of you which is the home pic .
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-01 17:34:01
I think I do need a lesson. I learn quickly so maybe when I get back I'll try. Ingrid walked me through the whole avatar thing and I was so happy with that, like a complete nerd!! OK,OK we won't change it Ingrid. I love this one too and if we keep at it, it will be the record holder I think with the most comments. I leave on Thursday and I'm excited to go!! We have to move from the house we are in right now and the house search is driving me insane. My land lords are really nice,but they only ever wanted to rent this house out for 2 years :( Love this cute house with tons of charm,but now I have to move on. They gave me tons of notice(Lease runs out Oct.1st) but in a way it has been tough because there have been a couple of houses I could have taken,but could not get out of this lease. ANYWAY, this site is my veg out site that I can go to a get lost in the world of U2 and not think about looking for a new home. The trip will also be nice to forget about it for a while!! Say some prayers for me when I get back that I find something. The difficulty is staying in the right school district for my daughter. We don't want to buy,since we aren't sure we want to stay here. It is an affluent community,so most people own their own homes. We are the rare birds that were always locked out of the real estate in California!!! So, we will keep this pic then!!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-01 18:32:11
oct, if you want to post a picture... upload it at www.imageshack.us and copy the bottom link (the simplest one... www.imageshack......<name>jpg/gif/bmp/whateverthen, in the post message thingy on PLEBA, you'll find a IMG button above the text box.. click on it, paste the link in the popup thingy and voila :)Ill get the books when we return from holidays :( another month waiting!
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-01 20:00:51
Wow here we go agin with some random person posting a million times so this pic will go bye bye!! Oh well, Fanny brought it back and now I know where to find it. But I thought i'd post to put it back up.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-02 10:38:30
oct , good luck with the house hunting .and I hope you and ingrid have a blast in France . well I was laid off from my job I am on unemployement for now , I will start seriously looking for a job soon .
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-02 17:07:28
I'm unemployed atm too, wich sucks since I need money in september for U2 by U2 and the ZooTv Dvd!!!luckily I can return at my job in the supermarket after three months... I really hope Bono's there when I'm in Eze, he's supposed to be at a beach meeting in california or so next week..
From: knappevent on 2006-08-02 21:13:11
didn't forget you, Ingrid (really!)here's a link with the U2 in Holland news...http://news.google.nl/news?hl=nl&ned=nl_nl&q=u2+nederlandthanks fot keeping this picture up ;-)
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-03 14:34:17
oh thanks for those links!!!I didn't knew that Bono protested against the fact he is going to have to pay taxes in 2007! that sounds like such a non-Bono thing to do :s
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-03 21:31:56
knappe , I checked your link , would you please translate ?:(
From: knappevent on 2006-08-03 23:51:27

From: Ingrid on 2006-08-04 21:01:23
I wanted to let you all know, I'm on holidays starting tomorrow, I'll be back the 27th or 28th ^^Hopefully I can get to Eze and see/hear something/someone from the U2 camp... but Bono might be in America, and last monday nobody was home... I'll inform you all afterwards, but don't get high hopes, I'm known for having real bad luck!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-05 07:55:50
thank you knappe , for the link .I feel like a idiot , so many u2 fans are able to speek more than one language ,well I am able to speak some spanish .
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-05 07:58:42
I guess since oct & ingrid are away , it will be my job to keep the home pic up .
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-08 10:12:24

From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-09 02:03:46
Pride , very cool . thanks for the up date :)
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-08-09 19:33:01
Wow, very fitting, Pride. You are fast, Kv, I only read that today in the paper. Silly, but I always feel very pleased to see something about them in the news, I guess I want the whole world to love U2. The radio station that is on in the office where I work plays a different U2 song 2 or 3 times a day, and one of my co-workers and I make sure the whole office knows!
From: Mariëtte and fanny on 2006-08-12 17:13:07
hello!! Through this site we met, and now Mariëtte is at my house! How cool is that?! Now we know that U2 makes new friends, and what this site gives you in return! =D Just had to tell=)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-13 08:24:24
mariette & fanny , u2 is so cool they can bring friends together :) I'm sure you have read ingrid and oct are in france , I hope they run in to the boys , but I don't think bono is there :( he is doing a tv interview .

From: knappevent on 2006-08-15 22:31:17
Hey trinity! Hey all! Love to read here, but can't write all the time. I wished i could catch one of the upcoming shows... Australia (opening show) should be the one to grab! They're are hungry to play! I know U2, all they want is to be on stage! Unfortunatly the money is up.. doing this home makeover (without Oprah ;-) LOL ) The best i can do is follow the forums, pics here and keep an eye on u2torrents... maybe there will be a video shot... i have the television broadcast downloaded from Buanes Aires... bad voice, but great outside show report!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-16 04:25:37
Bono is in the running among others for the Greatest Celebrity Humanitarian in HELLO! Magazine.You can vote here:http://www.hellomagazine.com/vote/c...rian/index.htmlAnd you can re-vote every 15 minutes?well knappe , I understand the no cash other wise I would follow the guys on tour =(
From: lalatoots on 2006-08-16 16:26:27
Great to see people still checking in every now and then - yea Trinity-their band has really been busy this summer-they played in Houston and Mississippi as well as being in the finals here for Battle of the Bands-I'm such a proud mama!!! Still waiting for all those new pics that are sure to be coming - take care
From: knappevent on 2006-08-16 19:11:00
yep... no cash, an angry wife (she would't let me go to the Hawai concert) three kids who would miss their daddy, a dog begging for a coockie and a parrot scraming for a peanut from me are withholding me.....but beside that... i made it to the concerts in Chicago and Slane... whoeha!
From: lalatoots on 2006-08-16 20:00:15
Im trying to get my husband to take us to the Hawaii show - it will be our 20th anniversary, so I think I might be able to make it happen!!! But thats right-at least I had Atlanta last year along with many others from earlier years..great great memories;)
From: knappevent on 2006-08-16 23:10:52
I'm an early fan.. since '84... so i really, really enjoyed the old songs at Slane. Chicago was a concert that made my top 3 of visited concerts (of 25). The first songs of the Vertigo Tour did make a loop-back to the past. I even couldn't imagine hearing "40" & "The Electric Co." live again! That brought back memories... and made it hitting my top three! Actual, the first concert i visited at Rotterdam in '87 (still got the shirt!) is the number one, Chicago is second.... (okay, to easy... Takes a second to say goodby, takes a second say goodby...Oh, Oh, Oooh... LOL)
From: knappevent on 2006-08-16 23:15:54
Forgot to mention.. Slane is at third place.. They've played there some songs that kept me from riding into a concreet bridge... at that time i had a kind of burn out. The song "kite" still brings me tears... the some "walk on" gives me the strength to go further!.. When i'm sad... those songs will be played, after that Bad comes up!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-17 04:58:05
knappe are you alright ? your last post seemed so sad .
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-08-17 18:53:06
I know what you mean Knappe, I turn to U2 for comfort, too, helps me to go on. And I am sure many people feel the same way. I hope you are ok now.
From: fanny on 2006-08-18 11:52:20
hi! good to see so many of you are coming back! Knappe, I hope you are okay?Guys, I read something yesterday. Mary J. Blidge is 1.68 tall!! But she looks like a giant when she is standing with Bono!! isn't Bono's "offical" height 1.72? Well, it can't be!!=)
From: knappevent on 2006-08-18 23:29:46
Yeah, i'm allright! Thanks for asking! But i will never forget that period. I'm back, i'm happy and i cant wait for new material from our boys!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-19 23:13:33
well I'm glad your alright now knappe ,you had me worried =( , and I also turn to u2 music to get me through difficult times in my life , they pulled me out of a really bad one about five years ago . and because of that I will forever hold them in my heart :)
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-19 23:43:26
Hey guys, I 'm back!!I had a fab time,but I'm glad to be back. Visiting Paris made me very sad :( since we lived there for two years,it felt soooo much like home that it was tough to be there and not think I could just go to my house there. I almost made it to EZE,but it was just that little bit too far. I went to Cannes,where we have some friends.They are not into our boys,so I didn't even suggest it,plus we only had a day in that area. Our whole trip was first landing in Paris then transfering to Toulouse,(in the southwest) then met my son in laws parents (That is still hard to say,since my daughter married so young) then we drove to Spain and visited Barcelona. Drove back to Provence,then to Cannes. Flew from Nice to Paris and spent four days there,then Voila!! I'm back. We met new people and visited old friends,so in the end a great time was had.Fun to read some of the posts since I left. On @u2 there is a new "Bun" cartoon on Actoon baby !! Cute as usual.Maybe Ingrid got to go to EZE and we will here about her escapades :)
From: lalatoots on 2006-08-21 17:22:26
Glad you had a good time Oct-sounds wonderful:) Looks like a few people coming back to this site-everyone waiting for new pics and news!! I didn't realize you had a married daughter - glad you are back safe
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-21 21:04:19
Yes, My daughter married at 19!! It is hard to explain the situation though as it is not a typical one. We were living in France and she met someone towards the end of us living there. It was a world wind romance! He proposed to her on the big Ferris Wheel in Paris in front of the Louvre. We all flew back and she was here only a week,when they had a hard time figuring out how they were going to get her fiance to the States. It was only going to work if she flew back to Paris and got married there. So they did! and that was now two years ago. She is still attending University here in California. Her hubby has already finished all his schooling and holds two masters degrees in Computer Engineering. They are good together and I guess I had nothing to say about them not getting married. I was married at 21,so who am I to judge:) They live close by and it is nice to get together with them on the weekends.This summer we finally got to meet his parents and really enjoyed our time.Enough about that. I can't wait to get the new book and dvd next month!!!!Yipee.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-22 05:35:55
oct your back , sounds like your trip went well . to bad you didn't make it toEze but looks like Bono has been everywhere but Eze , I wonder where are the other boys . Did you cut your trip short ? I though you were going for three weeks ? or was that ingrid ?sorry you were missing your home in Paris , when you lived there did you miss the states . Your daughters proposal was so rommantic !
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-22 18:17:05
That is one reason I didn't persue going to Eze, because I thought that I would go there and they wouldn't be there and it would try the patience of my family :) It was Ingrid that was going longer. We went for two weeks. You know, I didn't really miss the States when we were there, since it was such a simmilar life style to the one we have in California. The only thing I really missed was stores like Target and the fact that all the stores are open longer and on Sunday,oh and also Mexican food!. I also knew that our time there was short and I would be home in no time. My husband also traveled back and forth from France to the US ,so he brought a lot of creature comforts back to us. I think that is why I was so sad when we went back to Paris,becuase it still seemed like home. We have been away since July 2004 so it still seems like yesterday to me. I don't think my daughter could have asked for a more romantic propsal! Atfter he propsed they had dinner at a very fancy restuarant in the Tulilleries Garden in front of the Louvre where he asked the waiter to cover the table with candles!! Cute huh?!Anyway. I really hope that Ingrid gets farther than I did and gets to at least see the house on the beach. I was excited to see that they are working on a new album though! I just hope they don't rush it. Remember when Bono said that if they make two crap albums in a row, they were done? Lets hope this one coming is fab!! Did you happen to see that clip on You Tube where that fan from Eastern Europe meets them outside of the studio? It is about 13 min. long. It brought a smile to my face to see how nice Bono,Edge and Adam where to the fans. I didn't see Larry on it though. Check it out if you haven't already.
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-08-22 19:27:17
Hi Oct, I would really love to see that clip you mention, but I can't find it on YouTube. Can you give me directions, or post a link, please?You know you are fortunate your daughter and husband decided to move back with you. My daughter married at 20 and lives in Wales, while I live in Holland, I only get to see her 3 times a year =(I also can't wait for the new book and dvd, especially after watching the Zoo TV trailers on atu2!
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-23 20:26:17
Hi Ladyofcymru. I fell lucky that they moved back here,but I feel that my daughter wants to live the Parisien life and might push to go back. They are both very lazy as far as planning things etc,so I'm holding my breath. Also she has about three more years to complete her degree so we shall see. I found that clip on you tube by going to the other website PLEBA on feedback.com where it says mega merge. I'll go back and see what the title says and then I'll put it on here.
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-23 20:28:52
Ok I'm back.....the title you should type in if you go to youtube.com is; U2 Some lucky unfortunated and blessed fans. I notice you have to type it in exactly or it seems like you can't find it. It is about 10 min. long and the best part is towards the end.
From: ladyofcymru on 2006-08-23 22:08:00
Thank you, Oct, for the directions. I can't get enough of video's like that! They were great, especially Bono gave those fans a lot of time, very kind of him. Shame Larry wasn't there. Did you read on atu2.com about the new album? "Edge is on fire". Sounds good.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-24 10:39:26
I hanen't seen the clip , with my slow dialup it would take forever to load :(dreamoutloud on pleba did give me u2 at the grammys , my recorder didn't go on so I missed it , I was working nights at the time .
From: lalatoots on 2006-08-25 21:58:50
Oct and Lady- I can't imagine your children living far from home - my oldest is a senior and I am already freaking out about him moving on and out - although I think it will still be a while. That was a good clip Oct. I also really like the one when they were younger and they were wishing MTV a Happy St. Patricks day:)
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-26 02:45:56
Actually Lala, my daughter lives about 25 min away,so I see her a lot!! She comes over every friday when she isn't busy!!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-26 06:34:40
hi everyone , I was looking on amazon for u2 stuff and I think the new u2 book is only going to cost about $30.00 US dollors :) I didn't think I could buy it because I'm not working but now I can :)and I got sone good news today I passed my test , that will open up more jobs.
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-08-26 15:03:13
Congratulations on passing your test, U2Trinity! Hope you will find a job soon. I saw on Bol.com they expect the new book on the 5th of September, for 30 euro's. I went to a regular bookshop, they said 16-10 and 40 euro's!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-27 10:59:44
the one thing I wish this book and anton"s book would come eith is the photos on disk , no more scanning :( yes , my test was three hours long at our state university and I really didn't think I passed . I am now a Certified Pharmacy Technician , yay . :)
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-28 20:13:32
just want to let you gals know I'm back ^^ got a lot of catching up to do, not much timeI got my Edun Bonohoody today (*drool*) and I love it!Found Bono's house, but the bastard was in Sarajevo by the time I was there (his wedding day, aug. 21st)took one picture, not uploaded on the pc yet... I'll tell ya gals more laterbyyye!
From: Octu2 on 2006-08-28 20:53:14
Well, girl at least you made it to EZE,but that is what I thought would happen to me. I thought if I pushed going there with my family,they would be annoyed and he wouldn't be there anyway. Can't wait to see your pics though :)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-29 04:26:38
so close yet so faraway :( but going to France in it's self must have been great for both you oct and ingrid :) and ingrid you were able to see his house . I want tosee your pics to .
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-29 17:33:53
Ladyofcymru, bedankt voor de tip!!! Ik wist niet dat het daar goedkoper zou zijn, meestal is internet duurder!Fanny, MJB was wearing HUGE heels in the One video, and Bono is crouching a lot(he always does when he plays guitar!)I cn't find the mannual of the new digicam, so I can't upload them yet.. .:hmm: I could also just connect the thing to our pc and see what happens XD
From: knappevent to Ingrid on 2006-08-29 20:11:35
Hey Ingrid, just connect the camera to the pc, XP will do the rest. It will be mounted as an extra drive, simply copy-paste the pics!Great you've made it to Eze.. (How long have you discussed with your parents? LOL )
From: Matt on 2006-08-29 23:06:20
Helle everyone, besides all the pictures make sure to check out our latest addition to the tour database. If you've seen a few shows it might be useful.http://www.u2-vertigo-tour.com/personalshowcharts.html
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-30 13:20:56
I"m afraid it's no use for me Matt, still haven't seen a show :( it's a nice addition :)Knappe, thanks, I'll try that.. well, my mother wanted to see the gardens(after a PLEBAn told me there were beautiful gardens there, I printed her email and showed my mom) because she loves plants and such... so.. she wanted to go... ^^
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-30 13:24:04
the camera isn't showing up :sweirdness...
From: U2Trinity on 2006-08-30 19:56:21

From: knappevent on 2006-08-30 22:54:11
Oh oh.... i forgot to mention that you have to switch the camera on! And thanks Matt, i checked out the Chicago shows! Nice!
From: Ingrid on 2006-08-31 11:46:01

From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-02 01:05:17
Ingrid , you were there at his house very cool . Thanks for those pics . I liked seeing the overview . I have a question about the pic on the beach , what is that platform to the left of his house , it's up high and is fence around it , is it some form of deck and is it on his property ?
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-02 12:57:58
I kinda messed up the pic... on the next pages you'll see the correct google earth pic of the house, with Bono and Edges house marked :)
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-07 04:42:51
Hi guys, I just finnished moving to my new home!! Wow what a nightmare! Since we have sooooo much stuff. Where were the good old days when you moved out of mom's house with a box of clothes and some personal items?? You wouldn't believe the boxes. The movers said they usually do two houses in the same square footage! Hey Sept.18th or 19th ZOO Tv comes out. I forgot when the new book comes out????
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-07 17:22:51
well, according to www.atu2.com the special edition of the book is delayed... the other version is out here now... well, at least you can order it online now :)
From: fanny on 2006-09-07 22:07:47
do you know what's special about the special edition? xD
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-08 09:10:04
Hi oct , no wonder we haven't heard to much from you since you got back from France . zoo and the book =) If that specal ed .ever comes out , I hope it's worth the wait , and not just a hard cover !I was downloadind on limewire and I found the u2 Hallelujah Leonard Cohen , wow . I have seen it before but because of the name I thought it was a gospel song , boy was I wrong . It's really hot ;)
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-08 20:57:40
Yes, I'm still knee deep in boxes,but I do take some time out to visit here of course :) I'll have to check that song out.
From: U2.com// News!! on 2006-09-08 23:31:55
08.09.2006In The Studio... with Green DayThe band are back in the studio and working on new material with producer Rick Rubin. Word is that Green Day are set to join them to lay down a cover of The Skids' 1978 post-punk classic 'The Saints Are Coming'.More when we get it.
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-09 21:33:02
My two favorite band together ,oh happy day!!!! Remember I went on and on about Green Days concert that I went to last year and nobody said on here that they liked them. I guess our boys do!!! That will be a COOL song!! My sister is going to have a heart attack when I tell her if she doesn't already know! I was lucky enought to see both of them last year and they both were THE best live shows!!! YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-09 22:26:18
I still don't like them ^^I'm currently working on Vertigo live from Sao Paulo video... have the whole show except for Miss Sarajevo and Norwegian Wood... when it's finished I'll post a link so you guys can get it :) it's video!

Oh my gosh Ingrid!! They really are super talented, Billie Joe has been singing since he was 5 years old! U2 sees their talent!!! I can't even describe how amazing they were live ,and I don't like loud hard rock or metal. So if a forty three year old woman can enjoy them, I still don't get why you don't like them. They have been together for 17+ years and do such neat charity work here in the San Fancisco Bay area where they are from. They even turned their backs to the real punk rockers in Berkeley when they gave them such a hard time and called them sell outs. I wish you would give them a chance. Remind me why you don't like them again?
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-10 16:38:46
their music doesn't do anything to me... I don't like the music, and if I don't like the music, why should I try to like the band?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-10 20:21:09
does anyone know what the u2 Greenday song is going to be on ?
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-11 07:32:21
They are remaking an old song from a Scottish punk band from 1978. The Skids I think??Ok Ingrid I won't bug you anymore about Greenday. If you don't get them I guess there isn't much to say. Anyone else out there like them???
From: lalatoots on 2006-09-11 17:17:00
I think it is The Saints Are Coming-supossed to benefit Music Rising - also rumors here of something for the Saints home opener - of course I have my season tickets!! Oct isn't moving fun!! Everything so new and fresh - I know what you mean about the days when all you had was one box straight from mom and dads house!! Boy time flies
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-11 21:52:16
I'm still unpacking all my STUFF!! I won't be living here super long either so I'm already thinking about how next time will be :( We needed to be in the right school district for my daughter's high school and she has two years to go. After that I'm not sure where we will go. We could stay here longer,but who knows. I'm just trying not to think about it and come on here instead to visit and ignore my mess!!
From: Fanny on 2006-09-12 18:51:34
oh my god, guys! I think we have misunderstood the situation here! I just read in a newspaper that U2 are in studio to record a new album, and they are also going to cover that song with greenday! Are we going to get a new album from the guys already!? Holy shite!!! I'm friggin happy now!:D:D
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-12 20:15:58
I know they are recording a new album, I'm just wondering if this song with Green Day is going to be on it or a single or both??? Fanny didn't you hear that 18 min clip on You Tube that some French tourist taped outside their studio in France? You can hear the start of the new album! Sounds pretty good from what I hear,and since I'm a Green Day fan this is a double bonus for me:) Hi by the way Fanny,haven't seen you on here in a while.
From: Fanny on 2006-09-12 20:33:48
oh my god, I can't be paying attetion:PI haven't heard the clip..nooo..I didn't know. I feel stupid now! I think the cover song with green day will be a single, since the money are going to musicrising:) Green day are pretty cool, huh? Yeah oct, long time no see. How are you?!=)
From: Ingrid OMG GO TO U2.COM!!! on 2006-09-13 11:43:55
Full week report on the recording on Abbey road!!!!! They're actually off their lazy arses and in the studio XDOct, here's the best song of the clip :) video was made by my PLEBAn friend Simon ^^http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpOfLSQrIWQthis is one of the beach clips, might be a new song!!!
From: fanny//and btw ingrid says OMG GO TO U2.COM!!! on 2006-09-13 14:02:33
*Fanny goes from happy to happier-happiest,grabs a few people and dances with them!* weee! U2 are going to release a new albuuum!:D:D:D
From: Susanne on 2006-09-13 19:22:12
What??? They are going to do that? When? How??? Are you sure????? (Btw, greetings from Finland, nice to see you all are still here....) *dances happily around with Fanny*
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-13 21:04:47
calm down , u2 may be in the studio but this doesn't mean we will be getting a album soon . Ok zooropa was recorded during Zoo tour , but this may be a All You Can't Leave Behind which took four years .
From: fanny on 2006-09-13 22:03:56
hi! susi and triny!!!! How are you?! Of course it may take a loong time before they release it,but anyway: weee! U2 are going to release a new albuuum!:D:D:D
From: Matt on 2006-09-13 23:49:53
Here is hope for some new material during the upcoming shows :)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-14 10:10:28
Hi fanny , doing well . just a few more days till zoo tv , yay :)))
From: Ingrid NEW PICS! BONO IN SUIT! on 2006-09-14 12:12:50
Lol there might be one new song for the fall tour, but I'd say a new album fall 2007-spring 2008 :)ok... Bono.. is wearing a suit... and not like he weared it before... the shirt is tucked in, buttoned all the way up, the tie is not crooked... and HE HAS BLUE ARMANIS!!I LOVE those!http://forum.interference.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=164909&pagenumber=4enjoy ;)
From: Matt on 2006-09-14 14:05:22
We'll see who is right.BTW, please stop using these teasers in the name all the time. I think the people who should see your comments look at this pic anyway.
From: Fanny on 2006-09-15 14:15:24
aaah..Larry's hair is short again!!!! You can see it on the video!!!!!:D
From: Susanne on 2006-09-15 14:54:32
Hehe, yes, that's better that way... Oh and by the way, has the Zoo-TV -dvd come out already? I haven't seen it here in Finland...
From: lalatoots on 2006-09-15 15:36:59
What a great day - I get to see U2 again this year:) Oct-I will try to keep an open mind about Green Day. Here in the newspaper Bono is on the front page and also the front page of the sports section - Go Saints and Go U2!!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-15 22:34:19
Hi Susanne! The dvd comes out on the 18th or 19th here in the States,not sure about in Europe. Lala, my girls have loved Green Day for a long time and I liked some of their songs,but it wasn't until I went to their concert that I really admire them as talented musicians. I really don't like super hard rock or really crazy punk, and anyone who knows me thought it was super funny that I even went to their concert. There is just something about them. I'm having a heart attack that my favorite bands are playing together!!The Video on You Tube was very fun to watch, but didn't our u2 lads look annoyed?? Yay, Larry cut his hair!! Why is Bono wearing a jacket and tie though? Somehow, it doesn't fit :( What do you guys think?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-16 07:15:36
well oct , whether or not Bono fit in with the suit he looked fantasic !=) Maybe he wore the suit because the Beatles wore suits for their pic . counting down to zoo !!!!!!!!!!!=))))Susanne , here in the US , cd's and dvd's are released every tuesday , so it will be out on the 19th . I think Europe release dates is on mondays so the 18th . be careful when buying , There is two versions a one disk , and the two disk deluxe .
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-16 07:28:20
Maybe The Fly will bring Soulcat out to play .
From: LadyofCymru on 2006-09-16 18:38:00
I got the Zoo Tv dvd today!! I am so happy.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-17 03:36:53
did you get the zoo deluxe ? We have three more days to wait :)))
From: ladyofcymru on 2006-09-17 09:40:14
Yes I did, but I only watched the concert disc yesterday (which I loved by the way), because, o happy day, yesterday evening I finally got part 1 of Popmart Live in Mexico on my computer!! Been trying to download that for a year now, I only had part 2. So I watched that last night, it is amazing! SATS with just Bono&Edge on their acoustics and then SBS just Edge and his guitar, very special. Weird, I should be drooling over Zoo TV now, with the new dvd, and I am, but I am so excited about seeing Popmart part 1 for the first time. Enjoy your Zoo TV dvd when you get it, U2 Trinity! I will watch the 2nd disc today. I am having a really good weekend!
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-17 16:03:19
ack ladyofcymru, if I'd known that, I could've sent you popmart! I have that on my pc! (zootv aswell)I don't have the dvd yet, I want to order it online, so I can try to win two tickets for U2 in hawaii! I'm afraid they'll only be concert tickets and I won't be able to buy a plane ticket (1000€) but hey, I can try! and otherwise I could always sell them to people who can go :)
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-09-18 06:46:04
Thank you Ingrid, I wish I had known you could do that! I've been really wanting to see it, but I'm happy now.I had Zoo TV, but Popmart part 1 I never managed to get in before. Good luck with winning the tickets!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-18 08:53:11
I will enjoy zoo very much =) one and a half days to zoo , I know what you mean about POP , ladyofcymru if I had to chose between zoo and pop I would chose pop I have it on video tape =( but one day I hope the u2 camp will release pop on dvd , in the mean tine I will drool over the Fly , not to shabby ...
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-19 16:22:32
I couldn't use my cd/dvd coupons on the site, so I just bought the double disc dvd in the store *drool*One thing struck me with this better quality.... when Bono's dressed up like macphisto... omg his eyes are even more blue than normal!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-19 19:40:22
I'm waiting for my daughter to wake up so we can go to Best Buy to get mine =)I think I'm going to go wake her , can't wait any longer !
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-20 19:04:15
This was posted on pleba .A day in the life of the Edge .http://video.yahoo.com/currenttv/travelerso cute .I have been in zoo heaven today !I just love dvds NO vid lines =)and that disk 2 is amazing ,the video confessional is really funny and strange , and Tryin to throw your arms around the world , is so great !I wish they would have put more stuff on disk 2 =)
From: ladyofcymru on 2006-09-20 20:15:13
Thanks for the link U2Trinity, but I can't see it, I just get a black screen and the reviews!! Does everyone get this now, or can someone help please, I really want to see this!
From: Ladyofcymry to Ingrid on 2006-09-20 22:44:41
Hi Ingrid, can you help me see the video A day in the life of the Edge please? I am dying to see it. I read on Pleba you were trying to download it. I would be so grateful...
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-20 23:49:22
Did you <who can see it, love Bono's laugh in the background?!!!The Edge and Yoga!! Good stuff.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-21 05:48:27
I hope you can get A day in the life of the Edge , Ingrid . They hane it on ,http://u2security.com/have you tried that link ladyofcymry , the quality is better , yahoo was very chopped up because of my dialup , large parts were missing but the sound was ok .at us security it starts and stops , it has taken one hour just to watch half =(
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-09-21 07:28:20
Thanks so much, U2Trinity, U2security worked! I thought it was hilarious, and they are both adorable, the laugh, yes, loved it. And Edge talked about Wales! (Cymru is Welsh for Wales)
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-21 11:46:32
yes, I tried to download it... but it didn't work... a lovely lady at u2mp3s.com did succeed, and I got a savefile link to download it... unfortunately Savefile is down at the moment, so I can't download it yet... I don't want to hotlink so I'll wait till I can download it, then upload it for you gals :)Part2 is online now!I had the black screen problem with part 2, just try back again later :)
From: Susanne on 2006-09-21 15:32:43
Oh my oh my... I just watched the Zoo-TV -dvd... Amazing amazing... How I wish I could have been there that time!!!!!!! *going nut*
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-21 19:24:47
Part two was quite funny as well.
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-09-21 20:30:03
Ingrid, I hope you will be able to download (and upload) the videos, that would be so great, because U2security.com doesn't have part 2 and don't you have to be a member to see anything on U2.com? I can find the video on Yahoo, but it says errors (fouten op de pagina) at the bottom and it won't play. I don't know wether that means it is Yahoo's error, or something in my pc?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-22 08:01:39
A few days ago I saw Sightings Of Bono for the first time , My question is what dvd is this short on ?
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-22 18:05:36
Triny, it's a short film made by a student(he sent Bono the script and asked if he wanted to be in it) as a graduation project :)Ladyofcymru, I have the same error... part 1 and 2 downloaded now:)part 1http://download.yousendit.com/B13A669372F4E341part 2http://download.yousendit.com/9CEB3371725B4042Enjoy :)

I didn't have any posters, and not much stuff on my pc... then there was a nice dutch guy who sent me a few dvds... and the madness started ahh Happy memories :)I'm going back to italy this year too btw, students exchange program... we're going from Rome, and leaving back home from there too with the people going on the school trip I went on last year... so maybe I'll be able to get into rome for a day! maybe they'll have new U2 buttons/calendars... hehe and I'm gonna check out a perfume store for sure!
From: knappevent on 2006-09-22 22:48:08

hi guys! I find this so great, because this is just another proof! U2 fans are really friends! As I guess you guys know, I even got a visit from a fan this summer =) Cool, huh? We really are like a big, great family!! :D*weee!*
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-23 12:07:56
hmmm, that's odd... I replied to the YSI mail I got, but it had your gmailadress... so I figured you'd get it... ah well, yea it's same adress :)A day in the life of edge pt. 3 will be on here today ^^
From: LadyofCymru on 2006-09-23 17:37:02
Ingrid, thank you so much for the video's of A day in the life of The Edge! They are so funny!Do you think the new book will be available soon, after the booksigning of yesterday? When I ordered it online about 3 weeks ago, it said it would arrive in 2-4 days! I wish I hadn't ordered it now, because I'm going to Wales in a couple of days, maybe it would have been quicker to get it there.
From: octu2 on 2006-09-23 22:29:38
Is it only out in the UK? I'm confused?! I saw the DVD and I'm hoping I will get it for my birthday, which is in just a few days :)
From: fanny on 2006-09-24 11:03:28
hmm..if we take in advantage that the book only is out in the UK,all of us have an excuse to go to London or Dublin!!:D (I don't think my parents will go to Dublin because of a U2 book, but..maybe it's worth a try!XD hahaha, stupid^^)And oct! When's ya birthday, hun?!:D
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-24 13:05:21
It's out in the UK US and Canada, , here in Holland it'll be out at the end of the month... then I'll be getting U2byU2, U2&I and U2 at the end of the world all in once XD
From: fanny on 2006-09-24 16:07:08
holy moly ingrid! You lucky girl!!By the way did you guys see photos of the booksigning in Dublin and London? Holy shite, Larry is so darn handsome!! *fall on the floor* I need something to cool myself down!=0_______(that was how the drooling smiley looked like, huh?=P)
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-24 18:38:53
Hi Fanny!!!! Good to see you back on here. My B-day is October 4th....... That is why I chose this screen name,along with the fact that u2 put out the "October" album. I haven't seen the book here yet,but maybe I'm not looking hard enough. I shall venture out and see if it is on the shelves yet.Yes, Fanny Larry is now looking like his old self again, younger looking. Maybe he read all of our cries for him to cut it off on all these sites. I'm just happy he did,because he looks sooooooo nice with it short.
From: Susanne on 2006-09-24 20:01:15
The book isn't yet here either... Lucky you, Ing... Btw, Ing, could you find for me angel of harlem -musicvideo somehow???

Tonights the night!! I am sooo excited to see U2 tonight - even if it is only for a few minutes - in Sundays paper the book will be at Target on Tuesday - it was advertised for $27.56 or something like that - guess thats where I will be Tuesday:)
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-25 21:41:54
Was there an article or was it in Target's add? I never saw it :( I go to Target sooooo much that I'm sure I will find an excuse to go there and check it out.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-26 10:27:15
Hi everyone ,so did you enjoy U2 and Greenday for the football game ? Bono looked gorgeous , I wish they had more time .It was strange watching Edge with another singer .I wonder when the single will come out ?I think I will be going to Target also , I ordered the deluxe on amazon but @u2.com they said the deluxe might be canceled , I hope not .Ingrid , I have been trying to save the gif you made from wild horses the long one where Bono says the f-word but it keeps freezing , would you be able to email it to me ? if so here is my [email protected]
From: Susanne on 2006-09-26 11:34:25
Thank you Ingrid, for the video.. :) Talking about concerts, do you guys like Canadian rocker Bryan Adams? He was having a concert yesterday here in Helsinki, I was there and enjoyed quite a lot....
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-26 14:29:46
sending email now Trinity:)I liked the performance, Bono looked amazing, really hyperactive... So POP BonO!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-26 21:06:46
I got it Ingrid =) and it works , thanks .You have become a real pro when it comes to making gifs .I've never seen Bryan Adams but I do like his music .
From: LadyofCymru on 2006-09-26 22:10:05
Ingrid, how did you watch the U2-Green Day performance? I tried on Rhapsody but I couldn't get it and thought it would only be for America. Please tell me how! I saw the rehearsals, it must be so great!
From: U2Trinity on 2006-09-27 07:20:02
wlll I went to Target and got the book =)Our boy's have been so busy lately it's difficult keeping up with them online !!!How do they do it .
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-27 12:00:49

From: lalatoots on 2006-09-27 15:36:28
Oct - the book was in Targets ad on Sunday - I went yesterday and got mine (there were only three copies when I got there) - it is absolutely amazing - took me about an hour just to look through the pictures:)
From: knappevent on 2006-09-27 19:48:23
GRRRR!! *()&#*(*@(*)@*+#*(_)($#@!$+_)()*(.. To short, this performance is to short!! Get back on stage and play on guys... can't wait to see more new...Ingrid, thanks honey for the link!PS:Never seen a drummer being so happy playing with U2 :-) LOL
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-27 20:54:59
I hear ya Knapp!! I thought "What the heck,Bono just got started" then poof it was over in an instant. Dummy me taped it on the non high def. channel. I however did watch it on high def and it was spectacular. I saw the book at Target,but my hubby won't let me buy anything so close to my B-day(next week) so I have to wait. No doubt I will get it. I got the other U2 and i for my b-day last year. has anyone looked to see if the performance is on You Tube yet? I think I will go and check.
From: lalatoots on 2006-09-27 21:12:47
Well Oct maybe it will be a birthday surprise!!! By the way, I have to admit that Green Day aren't all that bad:) I actually enjoyed them.
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-27 21:17:08
Glad you like them lala, you wouldn't believe how much fun they ,GreenDay, are live though!!! So for me to see my two favorites on a stage together,was almost to hard to take!! my sister and I were saying that it felt like we were there and getting that fun nervous feeling before they come out at a concert. Especially happened when Bono came out.
From: lalatoots on 2006-09-27 21:19:37
Seeing them perform for just a few minutes I can imagine the energy of a full concert - but my heart was racing when I heard and saw Bono - I so tried to get down on the field but had to watch from our seats!!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-27 21:49:08
Oh my gosh, I didn't realize you were there!!!! Wowy! I would be so excited too if I was there with a big old pair of binoculars! Was it ok for you to out on the field or was it only a certain amount of people that could be there? Lucky girl.
From: lalatoots on 2006-09-27 22:17:19
Oct it was amazing - we get Saints season tickets every year - when I found out U2 was going to be there - I was a basket case the whole week before. Any ways the field was blocked off - I think the people who got to be on the field were VIPs and I had read on Pleba or one of those that they were looking for U2 fans to be bused to the dome but only stay for the pre game show not the game too. I never heard locally of that though so Im not all that sure. Just to know we were in the same building - along with 70,000 others!!!
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-09-27 23:09:39
Ingrid, you are my hero! Thank you very much for the upload.
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-27 23:42:11
Very cool Lala....I felt that way when I was at both of their concerts. Also my daughter and I laughed for days becuase when Bono shines the light on everyone at the end of the show,we joked that he saw us and that was it! He was our friend for life!! hahahahaah Happy for you that you got to share that special momment and the fact that the Saints won was the cherry on top !! (Just Like Larry.......Fanny will get this joke)
From: fanny on 2006-09-28 09:02:39
=D
From: Ingrid on 2006-09-28 11:51:51
No prob my dutch friends ;)and yea Knappe, that greenday drummer looks like he lost it! he drums like a wacko XD then I really prefer our stone faced Lawrence!I saw your name on PLEBA Lalatoots :) so happy for you that you're there (I'm galeongirl there btw)
From: Octu2 on 2006-09-28 19:03:43
Easy Ingrid! Tre Cool is a fun time spaz,and talented. Larry of course is beyond sweet,but don't be mean to him.
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-02 16:58:41

From: Octu2 on 2006-10-08 00:36:37
i'm reading the u2 by u2 right now and it is very fun!! It is number one on the Amazon sales for biographies :)
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-08 06:34:20
Have you gotten to their first time in New York ? where Bono is propositioned ,lol .
From: Susanne on 2006-10-08 17:06:11
Hi all! *waves to all* I just made yesterday a reservation for U2 by U2, guess what, it's translated to finnish also (although I'm gonna read the original version)... That's something anyway. Ing, I read Until the end of the world couple of months ago, it was great, I was laughing very hard... (Bono:" I really miss my dog. ... And that's weird, since I don't have one".). Can't wait 'til I get to read the new book....
From: lalatoots on 2006-10-09 15:38:51
The book is awesome - very funny - don't miss Bono on Oprah this Friday - all about the Red Campaign.
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-09 16:08:33
whee I just got an email that U2 at the end of the world is sent today XD that means I'll have it tomorrow! ^^ and I can take it with me to italy!and also, one of my best friends said he had a present for me today, his mother made him buy it for me XD a HUGE Bono calendar! omg! it's like 10 x 20 inch or so *drool*
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-09 20:22:08
I haven't gotten very far yet in the book. I'm in the very beginning and that is fun reading isn't it. Most of what Bono says at the beginning is a bit of a repeat if you have read other books on him,but none the less it is still fun to read.Is he really going to be on Oprah!!! I haven't been watching Oprah for a while because there hasn't been anyone that interesting in a while,but I will surely tune in this friday!!
From: lalatoots on 2006-10-09 20:25:15
I must admit - I do watch Oprah - at least it is usually on when I am getting dinner ready - but yes its true - Friday he will be there - I am so excited - oh and the book is taking me a long time to read - some of the pages are a little hard to read with the dark backgrounds - or maybe its just my old eyes!!!
From: Fanny on 2006-10-10 10:34:34
aaw..haha,I think I'm the onlyone who hasn't bought that book yet? I think I'm gonna buy/order it today though!:DI guess that episode of Oprah won't be shown here for a looong time..yaaaaay!!-.-'
From: fanny on 2006-10-10 13:27:05
well,well,well..Fanny's not an outsider anymore, because she just ordered U2 by U2 xD
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-10 19:48:19
I am havivg the same problem reading the dark pages in u2 by u2 .I never watch Oprah but I will be on friday=)
From: knappevent on 2006-10-10 19:52:24
damn... so that leaves me as only person who hasn't bought the book...
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-10 20:10:06
don't worry knappe, I don't ahve it YET!Hee Hee u2 at the end of the world arrived today... omg.. the first few pages... *thud* interesting *cough* description of Bono's sleeping outfit!
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-10 21:04:27
I'm on U2 over load right now with reading the book and yesterday watching the whole zoo dvd. I left the house to pick up my daughter from school in a weird twilight zone mode :) I felt like I was at the concert! I haven't even gotten to the dark pages yet,but I guess the room will have to be well lit!:) In our paper today the "People" colunm was so funny when the mentioned U2 changing lables and building the tower in Dublin. the guy worte,about the tower, that the last 3 people in Ireland will now know that Bono is the president of the World if they didn't already!!:) Cute huh?!
From: Susanne on 2006-10-12 15:33:00
Oh dear, sorry about that.. *just messing around* Oct, what do you mean, "building a tower in Dublin?" Oh and it seems I'm the last one to have the new book, I'll have U2 by U2 tomorrow! Yejjjj.....
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-12 16:35:41
Susanne, U2's new record studio will be a tower in Dublin :) they'll have a studio at the top of a 30 story tower, in wich houses will be YAY I got U2 by u2 today.... AND I WONT BE ABLE TO READ IT IN A WEEK ><*frustrated*BUT I will take U2 a tthe end of the world with me to Italy XD
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-12 20:35:20
Hi Susanne, What have you been doing? Yes they are buliding a new tower of luxury condos and on top will be a penthouse/studio for them. It will be the tallest in Dublin the article said.Hey Ingrid, why are you going to Italy again?
From: fanny on 2006-10-13 08:54:18
hi susi? Where on earth have you been?:)By the way, today the winner of the nobel peaceprize will be official:) Wonder if Bono gets it this time? *crosses fingers*
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-13 10:42:07
Hi everyone , wow there is so much going on with our guys it's hard to keep up with them ! Ingrid you are going to love At The End Of The World it is such a good book .The Gap will be selling Red today I hope I can buy something , I've been out of work for almost 3 months so money is tight =( . Will our friends in Europe be able to watch Oprah ? I hope you will have the chance !
From: Susanne on 2006-10-13 12:59:13
Oh wow, U2's tower will be the tallest one in Dublin.. Well after that they literally are above everybody else...Oct and Fanny, I've been here every once and a while, keeping track what's going on in U2-world. And still studying history, working as a research assistant, traveling and naturally, listening U2 :). And today I finally got U2 by U2, wow, didn't realize it would be such a big book!!!! Can't wait to start reading it... Ingrid, enjoy your time in Italy, as Triny says, At the end of the world is a great book. I don't know about the others, but Oprah-episodes we see here are old ones, so I think I'll see Bono in Oprah like eeer.. in two years time, uh...

Hi Trinnity, I keep meaning to ask you what State do you live in. I think you said a while back,but memory has failed me. I would like to get a shirt at Gap,but who knows if ours will get it. Guess I will have to go into San Francisco to get it. Since it is the flagship store,they will have more of a selection. Can't wait to see our man Bono on Oprah. My sister is coming over, so I may have to watch it later. She has three little ones,so I doubt it will be peaceful enought to watch it. :)
From: lalatoots on 2006-10-13 18:44:44
Getting ready to go to the Gap - stores here are still behind in merchandise since Katrina - if you can believe that - but I want to see what they might have. I'm also leaving the office today early to catch Oprah!! Can't wait to see Bono:)
From: lalatoots on 2006-10-13 20:59:03
Csn it be - Bono overload - he will be on Larry King tonight!!!
From: fanny on 2006-10-14 18:13:21
weee! Got me book today! Oh my, are those pictures gorgeous or what!? I'll start reading it this evening^^
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-16 01:35:55
I bought the red t-shirt at Gap today and bought a cool one that is dark grey and red stiching for my hubby. I wnated the denim jacket,but they aren't due to come in until Wednesday. I'm not sure I'll get it since I'm sure it is going to be expensive. The pants were 150.00 ,so I'm sure the jacket is more. I already have a denim Gap jacket,so I can't justify it. I may however go back and get the zippy sweat shirt though! My daughter and I also saw the cute RED Nano at apple across the street,she wanted that of course :) I felt like Bono and Oprah going to each store and seeing all the RED products. I'm irritated with Apple only giving 10 dollars or 10 percent instead of like Gap giving half of the profit. I love Red so I'll enjoy wearing my shirt.Hey Fanny, happy to hear you got the book,I'm enjoying mine.
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-16 20:17:35
My book was waiting for me when I got back from Wales, finally! I am loving it, so many great pictures, such a lot of great stuff to read! And in Wales I managed to find a copy of the birthday issue of Q-Magazine with the U2 cover! And I found the Best Of 1990-2000 cd with B-sides and a bonus dvd, which you can't buy in Holland anymore. I am happy.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-18 02:02:28
Ladyofcymru happy for your Best Of , what is on the bonus dvd ?I am up set about Apple giving so little also, I wonder if we can start a email campaign to Apple asking that they give more !!! Oct I am from New Mexico , so I hope our Gap will have Red stuff , I haven't checked Because I will want something I can't have !!!
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-18 22:48:45
Hi U2Trinity, the dvd is 20 minutes, and has snippets from ZooTV, PopMart, video's and interviews for the first ten minutes, and two songs, Please from PopMart in Helsinki and Beautiful Day filmed in and around their house in Eze, really cool, they laugh a lot in it.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-19 05:07:52
That was a very good find Ladyofcymru . Soon the new dvd will be out , I hope it will have some of their older vids that have not been on dvd before .
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-19 17:03:19
So they realesed the best of in Europe already? the DVD sounds fun. My hubby would kill me if I got it, since he doesn't like Best ofs. Last time I bought their last best of, I was living in France. Now, I can't view the DVD part of it since it is from Europe. Which was the reason I bought it in the first place. :( If I try and get this,I will feel dumb just buying it to see the 20 min vid. since I have almost all of their albums,I can't justify it.
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-19 19:52:42
The new best of is not out here Octu2, I found the Best Of 1990-2000 with B-sides (wich you can't buy anymore where I live) in a Welsh supermarket and it had a bonus dvd. What a shame you can't watch your Best Of dvd now! The new cd will also have 2 new songs, and the dvd with that will have 10 songs on it, I've read. You have a point, but it is very tempting to get it!
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-19 22:02:06
I know!! It makes me so sad I can't view the DVD part of it. I saw it on my computer when I lived in France and never got the chance to see it on a bigger screen :( unless I find it in a second hand cd store, I can't justify buying another one,since the cd part works over here. Guess I will have to go by memory.
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-21 19:53:14
Ladyofcymru, I found that dvd/2disc best of in a cd store called Spotter here in almere... crap store, but they had it! sadly for me, I didn't know at the time that those cds were so rare, and I DID NOT BUY THE OTHER BEST OF WITH BSIDES ><><><I still kick myself for that since they're sold out now, and nowhere to get.... *sigh*
From: fanny on 2006-10-21 23:12:50

Hi Fanny! That was funny!! I had never seen that one before. How are you doing?

Hihi Fanny, that was hilarious. Really made my morning.
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-23 13:32:02
lol Fanny, I've seen that, it's funny XDI must say, it's extraordinary to wake up, and have this picture as a poster next to you *drool*Thanks again Knappe!!!!! *bows down*even my MOTHER couldn't say anything negative about him in the pic(and that's a bloody miracle!) all she said this time was... he.. looks very.. concentrated.. lol!
From: knappevent on 2006-10-23 19:50:04
Wow! your mother didn't have comments? Wow again...and i was concentrated as well making this picture. BTW, it is printed on "sticker" paper, by my brother in law. This time he did a good job!Bono 40*60 cm above Ingrid BGRIN :DDon't forget to study ;-) LOL
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-23 21:47:02
Is it this picture at the top you are talking about Ingrid and Knappevent? Does your mum not like Bono, Ingrid? My mum (73) likes the look of Bono, she says he looks like a kind man. By the way, I am confused, does the U2 by U2 book come in different covers? Is the Achtung Baby picture you posted on Pleba, U2 Trinity, the cover of your book? Mine has the cover(is it October era?)like in the booksigning pics. But an advertisement of a local bookshop has an Elevation era cover, and on U2.com it looks like they have a Rattle & Hum cover up.
From: knappevent on 2006-10-24 12:34:45
Yes Lady, we're talking about this picture at the top. Ingrid is Dutch, so am i. I believe that you're Dutch also?I dont the answer to your question. The girls should help you out!
From: Fanny on 2006-10-24 16:29:07
wow, pretty many people are Dutch here! That's cool:)hoi, ik hou van je! I know some Dutch, but it's so little it's embarrasing!:PBy the way, you guys probably know what drop is? I fekkin' luuuve it!!
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-24 18:02:17
I think it is one cover. For my birthday, my daughter did a drawing of it! Very nice. I believe that Lady is from Wales and lives in the netherlands? Is that right?
From: knappevent on 2006-10-24 19:30:14
Drop? i'm addicted to it... took a BIG bag with me to Chicago...And that are some nice Dutch words fanny :-)!
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-24 21:02:10
Hi everyone, I am Dutch and live in the North of Holland. But my daughter lives in Wales, and I like going there whenever I can. I also chose my name because of the Edge-Wales connection. Well done Fanny,(had a Dutch boyfriend did you? ;p) where do you live? Can you get drop overthere? If not, I could send you some. That is a nice present from your daughter Octu2! You also have the cover with the Baby-U2 picture?
From: fanny on 2006-10-24 21:23:20
hehe, no haven't got a Dutch boyfriend=P Just some random sentence..like hmm, if I remember right hoe ist means how are you? and you guys have the weirdest thing on your bread! hagelslag!! it tastes good and such, but everything falls off:P And we use those kinds of things on cakes..we don't have drop here, but things that taste pretty close to it so I'm happy=) But thanks anyways, cymru:D
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-25 18:52:54
Knappe, Study, what's a study??? *scratches head*Ladyofcymru, my mom thinks he's a creep XD The U2 by U2 cover is from Boy era (october Adam had the 'fro)Fanny, yea I know what it is, I HATE it XD next time you eat hagelslag, use butter, taht way it won't come off!Wheeee I found Q magazine in Amsterdam today... I went to the English bookstore, no Q magazine, to the Bijenkort(big mall), no U2 cover... to the DUTCH Bookstore, U2 Covered Q mag XD *does happy dance*the interview is funny1st QuestionHow are you?Bono: Tall, intelligent, modest.somebody has a height complex XD
From: lalatoots on 2006-10-25 19:32:46
My mom just found out who Bono was - she watches Oprah every day - and she called me after seeing Oprah and asked it I had heard of him!!! She thinks he is such a "manly" looking hottie!!! Better late than never. Any by the way, what is drop?
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-25 20:10:01
Drop is liquorice in English, if I have spelt that right, Lalatoots. Ingrid, you are so lucky to have found the U2 cover Q-Magazine, I was told usually shops don't get very many copies a month, and since there are 20 different covers this issue..you have to be lucky to find one. Especially with fanatical U2 fans who are after it ;p. I am happy for you. You are right, Adam's "October-hair" is longer.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-26 00:56:11
Ladyofcymru , that pic I poster from the zoo era has been around for quite a while , I don't know what it is from . My u2 by u2 has the baby band pic also , I think they all have the same cover .Better late nhen never , haha .Ingrid how can yuo tell if it's u2 cover ? Here the Q mag is wrapped in plastic .
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-26 23:34:54
they're not wrapped here... Ladyofcymru, I don't know where you live, but you should try hitting a big city, Amsterdam or Rotterdam or whatever city big enough, Bijenkorf does sell the mag, but only had 2 diff covers when I was there, but it's worth a try. Otherwise try it at your own bookstore, ask if you can order it, with the specific cover.. Good luck!
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-26 23:47:50
Thanks Ingrid, but I found the U2 cover when I was in Wales! Did you read that Anton Corbijn will be in Groningen this Saturday? Presenting pictures of his of famous hands that have been made into postcards that you can get at postoffices next week. He did 10, one is of Bono and Bob Geldoff, one of Edge as well!! It is to support a telephone helpline.
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-27 13:10:57
oh no I haven't heard that yet! dang,I wish groningen was nearer for me, I'd love to meet Anton one day!
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-10-29 10:14:31
I went to Groningen yesterday to try and see Anton, but no luck. The event was invitation only I was told when I stood in line to get in. I hung around there for a while hoping to see him arrive and I walked around town and spent some time in the Irish Pub (Guiness :p), but didn't see him :( I'm going to the postoffice straight after work tomorrow to get the cards.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-29 11:03:40
Thats to bad about not meeting Anton , Ladyofcymru . I wish they would sell the post cards here in the US , are they the hand prints that are in the HTDAAB deluxe book ?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-29 20:32:59
ingrid , I need your help . Is there a way to download this video so I can have it on my computer =( I love this WOWY !http://youtube.com/watch?v=X0i93JSkYP4
From: Octu2 on 2006-10-30 16:53:59
Hey Trinity, you could just set up a "favorites" on You Tube and save them all. Thats what I did! You can go back anytime and hit your favorites. There are so many on there that it is hard to pick which ones you want to save though!!
From: Ingrid on 2006-10-30 17:04:03
Sure :) Omg, I had never seen that before!!! I LOVE IT!! A whole new guitar solo from Edge, and the shiny silver Bonopants *drool*AUDIO:http://download.yousendit.com/D88CAD1F3F75D64C VIDEO:http://download.yousendit.com/177698496030F88E

Thank you Ingrid and Trinity, I've downloaded it too, wow, that is so great to watch! I got the cards today, they are not the handprints from HTDAAB, Trinity, the pics were taken in 2006. They are adorable. Bono is wearing his ONE bracelet, and Edges hand isn't hard to recognize either <3.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-10-31 00:30:05
Oh thanks so much , I just had to have this one =) . Oct I try not to use much because my computer is so slow the videos take over a hour to load =( Ladyofcymru will you post photos of your postcards on pleba , I would love to see them ? Ingrid how did you save it ? I tried using your instructions using google and all , with no luck .

They are really great !!!My computer skills aer lacking also , I am always bothering my daughters on how to do stuff , and when they don't want to help I turn to ingrid . Thanks Ingrid !!Ingrid downloading Love Is Blindness now .=) Hi Matt , I have a request . Anything new , I have a feeling there will alot of new things , maybe Bono will have new outfits & jackets . Oh Matt can you take a few full body shots of the boys ?
From: U2Trinity on 2006-11-01 09:23:24
Matt , whenever I see that you have posted on the home page I think we are in trouble , for something we have done or posted . ha,ha .
From: Matt on 2006-11-01 11:43:16
If anything is working as planned we should have 2-3 cameras at each show. Hopefully we get some nice shots on each of the shows. Will try to get some close one but I don't have a large tele lens with me so I need a good spot.
From: Ingrid on 2006-11-01 16:57:43
Matt, can you get me a nice picture of Bono playing guitar (and if he still wears the cop outfit, that'd make it even better!) XD I love him playing guitar!and of Edge in the middle of solos, with that concentrated look on his face ^^
From: Fanny on 2006-11-01 17:53:43
well, Matt if you see any sign of grin at Mr.Mullen's face I'd love to have a picture of that:D

Matt , how many shows will you be going to ? Fanny , lol .This is very exciting .
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-11-01 21:05:57
I second every suggestion these ladies have made, Matt, especially the concentrating Edge one. But please don't forget to also make lots of sexy Adam pics ;)Have a great time!

I'll do my best but don't promise anything at the moment.

Oh Joy Oh Joy, Matt anything you take will be wonderful!! You are super talented and I have enjoyed all your photos. You have a great eye for getting the good shots we all love. Have a great time! Trinity, I couldn't see the "Sweetest Thing" you posted. It said invalid URL? Could you try again. I love that song and would love to see it.
From: U2Trinity on 2006-11-04 07:14:48
Oct , it's a audio download not a video .copy and paste the link but before you send you MUST remove the space between the word save and file so it reads safefile or the link won't work .Let me know if you were able to get it to work? It's really a good demo , but there is a flub in the beginning of the song the rest is very good quality .
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-11-06 18:33:05
Has anyone seen the Saints single in the shops yet? Ingrid, did you manage to get another pack of the hand cards today?I just read something very exciting on U2tours.com: they think Adam will be singing part of Kite tomorrow in Brisbane! I hope we will get to hear that too sometime soon!
From: Ingrid on 2006-11-07 15:07:45
the show just ended! ADAM singing???? wow, he only sung in the early days!I did get 5 packs of the cards, I sent them to my best friends at PLEBA :)Our FreeRecordShop didn't have saints yet >< they were missing six boxes from delivery yesterday, so I've to wait a bloody week!On their website, they have an offer that you can get the 2 track cd single AND the VINYL(!) for only 5 euros! I wish I could buy online ><The dude in the store couldn't tell me if it was online only or also in the stores ><
From: Ingrid on 2006-11-07 15:09:06
*EDIT*THey DID play kite, but U2.com doesn't say who sang... http://www.u2.com/news/index.php?mode=full&news_id=2023
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-11-07 18:07:11
We will soon know... I did hear that on Australian news Bono said they had a big surprise in store for the first show. Adam singing on stage would be big! I think the part that starts with -In summer I can taste the salt in the sea- can definately be sung/sponken by Adam. I would love to hear it.
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-11-07 18:44:25
Tomorrow morning 8 AM (GMT) BBC Radio 1, first play of new U2 single in Britain, I was told. Must be Window In The Skies, because Saints they have been playing a lot overthere. You can listen online as well. Unfortunately I will be at work then :(

ingrid I love you!!! Thank you so much for the song!=DI kinda like it:) Is it only me, or is there something a bit Irish over it?;)
From: Ingrid on 2006-11-08 22:07:51
Indeed Ladyofcymru, it's beach clip 400 :)Triny it's a radio version, I must warn you gals, the beginning is NOT only u2, it's also the outtro for Radioheads Fake Plastic Trees... so yea, the weird voice doesn't belong there, nor do the snares(twacky drum sound you hear after some seconds, it's not larry, larry only plays kickdrum in the beginning 'the grain is now a groove' it ends there, from there it's Larry) I heard a 'cleaned' up version from Radio Hamburg, but it was recorded poorly, and missed 14(!) seconds of the intro, so I didn't like it at all... the audio quality is bad, Bono's voice is distorted, so I'll wait for the single to arrive :)Well fanny, I don't know about Irish, but there's sure something Beatles-esque in it! must be the studio!The guitar part reminds me a bit of Streets...

I've got another little gift for you gals ;) STUDIO version of WITS, without lame radiohead outro, or shortened intro, great audio quality!http://www.yousendit.com/download/LFPNfYx3p3k%3D Enjoy!

hi guys!! I just searched after U218 on iTunes, and you can preorder it! If you do that, you'll get a song named smile with it?! Anyone heard of that song before??
From: Ingrid on 2006-11-11 18:35:23
Smile is nothing new... it's an unreleased track from the HTDAAB sessions, previously released in the Complete U2... it's not that interesting, jsut a nice song, but nothing special... I can upload it for you if you like ;)
From: Fanny on 2006-11-11 18:37:34
Thanks Ingrid:) haha, I thought I was so smart now! It's NOT possible being more updated about the boys than you Ingrid. Not even ONCE! haha:)How are things over in Holland?
From: Ingrid on 2006-11-11 18:55:15

From: Fanny on 2006-11-11 19:41:05

YAY I finally got the Saints single today! stupid record store didn't get itt till today... for taht reason the song came in at 34 of our top 40, internet downloads only... but I just saw the vid on tv for the first time XD and the people said that they came in on no. 1(!) at the mega top 100 here! Whee!
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-11-15 22:34:51
Almost lost the homepic there. Is it good, Ingrid, the Saints single? Is it the studio and the live version? I'll get it on Friday. I saw the vid, it's so much better on a tv screen, I wish they would play it more often.
From: Ingrid on 2006-11-16 11:42:41
Yes it's both, but if you can shop online, I advise you to buy it from freerecordshop.nl!!! They give you the 2 track single AND A VINYL for only 5 euros!!! damn, I wish I could get that!
From: knappevent on 2006-11-18 16:58:50
Okay, let us help them out :-) & we'll send Matt to take some pics ;-) LOLhttp://www.wewantu2.co.za/index.php?plz click the link and add your name, send U2 out to play Africa!
From: Ladyofcymru on 2006-11-19 14:20:05
I had christmas and my birthday rolled into one yesterday! I went into Freerecordshop to get the single and I saw WOWY video playing, so I asked about it. Turned out they had both U218 Singles and U218 Videos! They were not supposed to according to what I read on internet. The guy didn't even know what he had, because he asked if I wanted it with or without the cd, he thought the dvds were the same in both cases, so I explained it to him. But that was a really cool surprise!
