    PLEASE TELL US!!!!!!!!! THE ANXIETY IS KILLING ME!!!!!!!!


    No, wait, it is not.
  2. For anybody still questioning whether or not it's worth the money for this, consider that it is 22 songs that are of a quality equal to or greater than that of the Window In The Skies CD, which has the best performances of Kite and Zoo Station (from a sound quality standpoint) I have ever seen.

    Also, I was pleasantly surprised by their early May release date.

    I agree 100%..the fact is U2 release NOTHING live on CD...they never have..and never will..Think about it..they have been around for over 30 years..how many live commercial CD releases do they have ???? 2 ?

    Bono has said many times since the '80's "we dont need to release a double live album"....IMO..yes they do !!

    Im very pleased with this release...and as I have always said... they should do as Pearl Jam and DMB do..release live material on cd...!!!!!! Cant wait for this...

    Im glad I have been in the fan club for many many years..Sydney was released a few years ago on CD..then Slane on CD..now this...its a no brainer to join...
  4. I would love a double live album - from each tour!

    The thing the held me back from joining to get the Sydney and/or Slane CD's was that I already had the shows on DVD. This, as we all know, is not the case with U22.
  5. Dont Pearljam release every show they play as an audio download? U2 should do it too, id pay 20buks to have a live recording of my show, how hard could it be for them to organise.

    I would prefer two live DVDs from each tour ala Elevation.
  7. ^Specifically, a second ZooTV show?

    I agree. U2 records every show, even if it was just the mix they used for the show. I'd love to have all my concerts Ive been too from the past few tours. Simple Minds did this also and had it available within the next day to purchase.
  9. I think the reason why U2 doesn't sell their shows is because of their stance on bootlegs and bootlegging their shows. I'm not quite sure how to explain it, but it would feel somewhat weird if U2 allowed people to record and share bootlegs (for no profit) while they are off selling their recordings.

    Although it would be a great idea to have a soundboard recording of every show in a tour, U2 would never do it. They are perfectionists and if they mess up a performance, they wouldn't want it in a released recording. I suppose, they could fix it, but it would be a matter of time before they actually release the recording.
  11. Not too sure if we need EVERY show released since U2 doesn't have much variation in their setlist from night to night (unlike Pearl Jam). However, it would definitely be nice if they released a few of them for every tour.
