Welcome to the forum! What a sad situation.
What you are doing for your Uncle and your friend is great. Like LikeASong said, we're here to carry each other. If you need anything else for this cd feel free to ask me and I'll see if I have it.Originally posted by easports43[..]
Hi Rick!

choosing this song order and which version of the songs to use is harder than i thought.
Also, what are you thinking about for cover art? I can try and help you with that if you want. Originally posted by RickJKDMANi know i am starting with this
cd1
city of blinding lights (chicago)
vertigo/stories for boys (chicago)
cd2
cd3
zoo station (windows in the sky cd single)
cd4
as far as cover art
using 2 , 2 disc covers, so 2 front and 2 back covers. i cant decide on what direction to take it yet. a collage?, or 1 picture . i do like some of the black and white photos that were taken on the last tour. ill have to see if i can find them in my collection. those are just ideas right now.
Originally posted by RickJKDMANwell my uncle really loves all that you cant leave behind. loves all u2 though. my sisters friend and neighbor is the one with cancer. its for her husband. he is a big u2 fan . always a big fan. wasnt too much of a fan with actung baby and on from that. he is a big fan of these periods now because his wife gave recently bought him u2 by u2 now he is really getting into all the eras from zootv and on, so its catch-up time for him. i want it to encompass all eras. i would like to do a few songs twice. one on 1 or 2 and another on 3 and 4. a few songs so far i was thinking of doing that with are "out of control", "i will follow", and "sunday bloody sunday".

two versions of the fly possibly. one from boston 2001 is a must.
