1. UABRS came out on 9/30/08, what else would it be? and it's new enough to call it a new U2 record, even if it is a biiiiig stretch. Don't think any of us would call it new but some might

    iTunes would consider it new so that more people may try to buy it
  3. Not just me, but to others it may be misleading. Kind of confusing.

    So don't have the heading as New. Maybe have it as Re-master, Re-Issue, Re-Hash, Re-Release...don't mislead fans.

    If it was something like Unreleased and Rare, then by all means have it as New.

    it's the newest U2 release, if anyone reads that and takes the tinniest bit of investigation they will see that UABRS just came out and they will put 2 and 2 together...
  5. An Interference member apparently sat next to Bono and Ali at dinner in NYC last Tuesday, and got to speak with Brian Murphy, Bono's off-tour body guard. The lucky guy had this conversation with Brian:

    "We kept talking to the guy and out of nowhere he said, "Wait until you hear the new album." I said, "Really? you have heard some - I heard they had 50 or 60 parts of songs recorded." He said they do and it is going to blow me away. "

    What?
    My week just got better
  7. Noone in the U2 entourage is gonna say "that whole 50 songs thing is bogus and the new album sucks". So...

    That story is kind of creepy btw.

    wow. lucky bastard lol
  9. Isn't it amazing how calm it is after the hype some weeks ago? Remember 2004 when the pre-album hype was at an insane level? I for one just adore these peaceful times. Apart from Red Rocks I didn't listen to any U2 in weeks and months. So many new releases to enjoy, so many R.E.M. and Coldplay boots I watch, so much time to spend on trading without having that irrational fear to miss something in the U2 camp. Love it.
    Please guys, keep everything under the radar till the end of the year and come back with a boom in 2009.
