    At the moment, I'm still trying to get my hands over a cheap De La Parra "U2Live" book.
  2. You have to read it. It is the most amazing book that I've ever read. Written by Bill Carter, whom I'm sure you know (Sarajevo-satellites guy). It is an amazing portrait of that so unique city.

  11. I know (although you only know my written&read English ). But some weeks ago I had some serious trouble to understand an Australian guy (he was speaking fast as hell, that has to be said) and I realized that it's my main weakness.
