    The song isn't even mentioned in the booklet at all ! very strange....


    maybe it was an idea from the war period but that they recorded it recently. listen to bono's voice. that can't be from the war period.

    actually it does me think of wits.... maybe strange lol

    Really? I loved the extra treatment that tracks like I Will Follow, An Cat Dubh and Out of Control get. I'll give October another listen.


    The better sound on it - listen to the actual October song and compare with the vinyls and CDs.
  4. pre-ordered the t-shirt sets and my local hmv had a few of them instore so i'll have to wait a few days for mine to be delivered. Gonna head to Zavvi later to grab a box set

  6. Originally posted by iTimI'm not really too bothered if they're money grabbing or whatever. At the end of the day, it's something nice to have in your collection (especially if you get one of the special ones). In that article, the 'major' U2 fan sound a bit of a idiot. I mean, any die hard U2 fan would want to get his hands on whatever he could, wouldn't he?

    At least this comes 25 years or more after the original release. Nobody complains when Timbaland or Akon re-release their brand new album after about 7 months with some pathetic little thing added. Suddenly one of the biggest bands in the world releases a remastered version of an early 80's album with a bonus CD (and other things elsewhere) and everyone claims them to be greedy.

    Not fair.




    right about that!

    this seems to be the corresponding note, my copy is missing it though - maybe a last minute addition?

    The release date for the box was postponed. Probably due to some production errors...

    no thanks to that. Just phoned the local Zavvi store and they have the boxes in store. Buy 2 of the deluxes and get the box to house them in. No poster but ah well.

    Thanks mate
