    That's awesome as well. In the same video, just before Macphisto's speech, the fireworks go off during Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car - Adam jumps right out of his skin.

    He does??Lol, I never noticed that!


  2. And everyone's favourite just before I go: the end of Gone in Boston, Edge goes nuts with kicking his guitar. Great moment.

    Alright, I'm off for the night. Nice talking to you Katherine!

    Edge needs anger-management lol
    Bye Drew, see ya later


  4. he says he'll be mixing "half" of the finished record, the start to a good finish he says. Would love to hear the full story of the delay hopefully after it comes out. Lanois definitely said in July the album was done

    I was thinking, won't they have to reformat the packaging etc? I don't know if that's a big deal or not

    Something tells me this is a double album. Its very much unlike u2 to do this. Only few double albums have succeeded. The only i can think of are exile, the white album, quadrophenia, and goodbye yellow brick road. Mind you all those came within a 5 year period (1968-1973). Double albums get a bad name now because the Red Hot Chili Peppers are highly critisized for doing it. Not sure how good it is, but it could be. My point is, if U2 are making a double album, it could be the greatest double album ever. Why? First, we live in the digital age, so buying the album is easy. Coldplay's Viva album was the biggest digital download ever. Something tells me U2 might take that over when the new album comes out. Second, U2 always make great albums. Always. When was the last time U2 made an alright record? Never. U2 have always made great albums. Only October was not so good, because the lyrics were stolen. Its still a great record though. Third, U2 have a hit song on every album. Every album. For the doubters October has Gloria, Zooropa has Stay, and Pop has Discotheque. Forth, U2 have standards, so it's safe to say the album won't suck. All in all, I think U2 are gonna shock the world. This album is gonne be big. Maybe one of their best.

    Good to see that some people didn't lose their faith in the band. And no, I'm not sarcastic or anything.

    My opinion is completely different, though. I highly doubt a double album. I think that idea comes from the 50-60 songs quote but that indicates nothing to me. Nobody knows if Bono talks about lyrics, music, fragments, ideas...
    The last "alright" records were the last 2 and based on what I've heard so far, I expect another one for 2009.
    But then again Bono promised the best U2 album ever, so who am I to doubt him?

    Oh, is that songwriting vein they hit the same as 2006 or did they find a new one?

    agreed I'm not so keen on double albums myself, but I feel like if they were to do one, this might be it
