U2start.com | Ever downloaded the wrong show?

So, am I the only one?

I'm sitting here listening to Popmart @ Leeds and Bono says, "The last show we did here was the best show of our whole tour"...and I realized that it was ZooTV Leeds I had wanted to download.

Not that it's all bad, of course. It's still a good show so far!

Please tell me I'm not the only one who's had/having "head, meet desk" moments.

I've done this plenty of times. I did this one time because I was too lazy to rip the audio off of the Slane DVD. And I downloaded the wrong Slane show.

I've done it a few other times like downloading 11-07-87 instead of 11-08-87(Some of the R&H tracks were recorded during this show, SBS, Bad, etc.)

I haven't downloaded a show since ages ago. Anyway it happened with Dublin 87. I got the 06-27 when I wanted the 06-28 (with Walk On The Wild Side featuring Lou Reed). After my mistake, I discovered HOW great is Dublin 06-27

Errandum disceti, say the latins... Mistaking you learn

Unfortunantly I downloaded a wrong Boston show

So, you got Leeds 1993-08-14 instead of Leeds 1997-08-28. Both soundboard, both awesome.

But WHEN did you realized you had downloaded the Zoo TV show? Bono says that in after the second song (The Fly). Didn't you realize until then? LOL Mofo is slightly different than Zoo Station, and I Will Follow has nothing to do with The Fly!!

I actually downloaded the show about a week and a half ago and didn't have a chance to really sit down and listen until last night. And then, I just picked the one that said "Leeds". And for some reason I confuse Zoo and Popmart all the time in my head, so the fact that the songs were wrong for the tour didn't click.

But now that I look at it more, I think I got the one I wanted anyway! Is the Popmart one called "The Cock-Up Show"? Someone mentioned it in a bootleg thread as being a good one, but they had said it was ZooTV, which I think it a mistake. At any rate, I managed to confuse myself for a few minutes over the whole thing.

P.S. Why is it called "The Cock-Up Show" anyway?

It's called 'le cock up' because a French radio station broadcatsed the show by accident. Thanks to them I say
