    I suppose so. I just hope that this is indeed more of a Zooropa-esque what THEY want instead of another thing they hope will really impress EVERYBODY again and then they complain about their mistakes later on.

    Agree. Not caring about the audience at all has brought forward U2's best material.

    Well as long as they don't sell it on U2.com like with the AH triple vinyl, a complete F-UP.

    Oh yeah, ordered it, paid for it [well i thought i did], got the reciept with order number, got the free download, after 7 months & 4 or 5 e-mails back & forth decided to cancel it on me.

  4. Originally posted by EyesWithPrideB3:I don't get it. They complain about No Line not selling like they thought it would, and now they're doing this, where absolutely NO ONE but the die hard fans will buy it. Rips will be popular and widely circulated since everyone will want it on their iTunes, and everybody will just go to those instead of buying the album, since they'd probably download the rip after they bought, anyway.

    Or perhaps the vinyl will come with a digital download for the tracks, that would be nice.


    What has No Line to do with this EP? Right, nothing.

    From all info we have so far, they release a little item for collectors. A marketing gag. Nothing more, nothing less so far. Nice little idea - somehow following "Wide awake in America", the "Popheart EP" and "7" - should be something for the "die-hards" who whine that they want some releases for "die-hards"

    Agree.

    And I like the cover, I like it a lot. I would like to have one of those!!
  7. I have ordered it.


  9. Not sure, they will contact me with shipping information and costs when the item is released, but I think it will be something like 10 euros at most.
  11. 6 tracks was too good to be true. 3 tracks sounds, sadly, more plausible.

    Mercy (Brussels)
    Crazy (sliced together)
    MoS (Paris)

    Unconfirmed rumour of course. Amazon Germany raised the price from €9,99 to € 16,99 btw.


    would like that. Mercy from Brussels anyway, means to me it's not gonna be on a new album.

    I got it from that vinyl site for barely 9 euros
