April 6, 201115 yr Does anyone know of a possible Achtung Baby remaster coming out this year? It would be amazing if it does happen.
April 7, 201115 yr Went to see them on the 2 In buenos aires. They were quite amazing. Best setlist so far IMO. About the Achtung Baby Remastering , I can see this happening considering is AB 20th year. If it does not happen this year , maybe in 2016 for the 25th anniversary ? :thinking: But considering they did a remastered version of TJT album for its 20th I can see this happening
April 7, 201115 yr Does anyone know of a possible Achtung Baby remaster coming out this year? It would be amazing if it does happen. I've been hoping for this. :wacky:.
April 7, 201115 yr I've been hoping for this. :wacky:. I can't remember who it was but some band tweeted last year that they were recording next door to where people were remastering the album. I think we could expect one in November this year to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the release. I bought The Unforgettable Fire remastered and it was just an incredible remastering of an incredible album. If Achtung Baby is done like that then it is going to be incredible. Hopefully get a deluxe edition as well. A new album and a remastered of probably their greatest would make a fine year for U2 fans!
April 8, 201115 yr been hooked on this song lately [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOgjOgpJGvs&feature=related]YouTube - U2 - Mlk (Live In Paris)[/ame]

I've got the remasters for both Joshua and Unforgettable - worth every penny. Keep in mind though that with those two records, that's the first time i've ever actually owned a copy and listened to them from start to finish, so the whole package (not just the b-sides) was a whole new experience for me. I've owned Acthung for a while so I hope the remaster gets the same treatment in terms of the added content (live, b-sides, demos, out takes etc...).

I'd expect a few good live tracks from ZooTV could be used
April 8, 201115 yr been hooked on this song lately YouTube - U2 - Mlk (Live In Paris) Good song. That and Where The Streets Have No Name played together live is what got me hooked on U2.

April 8, 201115 yr been hooked on this song lately YouTube - U2 - Mlk (Live In Paris) Love this performance from that concert [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeAzX2i_49I&feature=related]YouTube - U2 - Bad.(Live in Paris.1987.)[/ame] Amazing how they went from that to this though! I'll never get tired of this performance [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMneYa8gJBY]YouTube - U2 - HD Intro-Zoo Station (ZooTv)[/ame]
April 9, 201115 yr Live in Paris 87 is my fave U2 recording and of course i love the zoo tv dvd cos its recorded in sydney :D
April 9, 201115 yr So U2 is playing in a city near me in May, and I don't have tickets. The Fray is opening so I realllly want to go! My aunt and uncle had tickets but recently separated...so I'm kind of wondering who is taking the tickets, and who will get the extra.....:whistle: That sounds really selfish of me though. :shame:
April 9, 201115 yr Live in Paris 87 is my fave U2 recording and of course i love the zoo tv dvd cos its recorded in sydney :D Slane Castle I love because it feels really intimate and lovely seeing U2 playing on their home turf but I love Zoo TV most personally. It looked utterly stunning.
April 10, 201115 yr Slane Castle I love because it feels really intimate and lovely seeing U2 playing on their home turf but I love Zoo TV most personally. It looked utterly stunning. don't quite agree with you on the intimate feeling. it was after all in front of 80 000 people. i think the Boston dvd is the closest they've gotten to that on recent dvds. but theres nothing like a home turf gig. really hope they one day release U2 3D on dvd with 3D capabilities.

Not in terms of size of crowd but in terms of it being a very personal experience for the band having recorded The Unforgettable Fire in Slane and with Bono's dad's funeral being on the same day as well as Ireland reaching the 2002 World Cup on that day. There seemed to be a real close "bond" between Bono and the audience that night. That's how I feel it's intimate.
April 10, 201115 yr fair enough its a real tragedy what has become of the slane castle concert. since 2004 there has only been 2 real slane concerts, oasis and rolling stones. it will be good to see elbow and kings of leon play the venue this year and hopefully start a run of consistent events at the legendary site.

Also Rockers U2 have promised they will pull out all the stops when they take to the stage at Glastonbury this summer. Bass guitar player Adam Clayton told Q magazine that the group's headline performance will be show stopping He said: "It's very un-Glastonbury to have a big production, but we will be sneaking a few things in through the back gate which will hopefully make the experience a little more like Glastonbury on steroids. "We're stretching the levels of what can be done. We hope to create a mind blowing experience that reacts well with all the other substances involved." The rocker also hinted the group's set for the British festival will include hits from their celebrated 1991 album 'Achtung Baby' album, in honour of its 20th anniversary. He added: "We want to go back to our 90s work that plays into a certain kind of psychedelia and do something tailored around that, from the Zoo TV to PopMart. This is the 20th anniversary of 'Achtung Baby' so there's a nice connection there and we thought we should mark that." U2 headline Glastonbury's Pyramid stage on Friday June 24. The festival,which runs until June 26, will also see headline sets from Coldplay and Beyonce Knowles. http://www.music-news.com/shownews.asp?H=U2-want-to-put-on-a-Glastonbury-on-steroids-performance-at-this-years-festival&nItemID=40868
June 2, 201115 yr saw this on ESPN. Hockey player picks up hitchhiking Bono If Bono needed a ride, would you give him one? Edmonton Oilers Gilbert Brule did, during a rainstorm Tuesday in Vancouver, British Columbia. The U2 frontman and his assistant were walking in West Vancouver on Tuesday when they got caught in the rain. Brule and his girlfriend, Kelsey Nichols, were driving to a park to walk Bella, their German shepherd. Nichols, who was driving, didn't believe Brule at first when he spotted Bono by the side of the road, so she kept driving. The couple went a short distance until Brule convinced Nichols to turn around. Eventually, she agreed. They gave Bono a lift. And Bono gave them tickets and backstage passes to his show Wednesday night in Edmonton, which they then flew to see. "We go to walk our dog and Bono ends up in our car," Brule told the Edmonton Journal. http://content.usatoday.com/communities/entertainment/post/2011/06/hockey-player-picks-up-hitchhiking-bono/1

What an encounter!
