  1. I only checked for the reference. I haven't even read the whole bloody thing yet.

  2. Ah well, you will in time lol. I got it last Xmas? Read it in about 2 days, but it wasn't like I had anything to detract my attention from it lol, I just can't remember ALL the fine details
  3. Honestly I haven't read too far into the Elevation section. I always get bored of the book by the time I get to the ATYCLB sessions in the book. Because more than half of what they are talking about (especially Bono, and he talks most in the book) are all about politics and political events and stuff. It just got really boring for me. To be honest I don't really care that much about they're political side. I support them, It's not like I don't respect what they're doing, but I really only want to read about the music when I read a U2 biography.

    I skipped that part no, although I'm interested in politics. I just wanted to read about touring and the songs.

    Just bought the Flanagan book (second-hand)... it's a good read right?

    THanks for posting the article though mate! Was awesome to read.


    Lol, That is so something the father of ambient music would do.

    Also, It's good that they ditched Rick Rubin, and went back to Eno/Lanois.
