hello! ;-)

Originally posted by dizzyDJr, I'd be happy to give it some thought, but honestly I'm in need of improving my internet connection, also can't guarantee I'll be checking in here every day. I'm not a diehard bootleg fan, but I have a few; I'll try to make time to read through that thread later.

Meantime, if you want to give me a brief idea exactly what it entails, I'm all ears.

You can always get an idea of what's popular by looking on the main BOOTLEG page under "most downloaded bootlegs" and "favourite bootlegs of users". That's pretty much a guarantee of a good show, we're very discerning listeners here!

Also have a look at these topics previously discussed:-

Best Popmart
Best Point Depot (Lovetown)
Favourite live show
ZooTV Legs 1 & 2
Just one boot from every tour?
Best Vertigo Bootleg?
Elevation Tour soundboard recordings

And for a decent summary of each tour, these are hard to beat (thanks Spiral ):-

Elevation Tour
Popmart Tour
Vertigo Tour Rarities
Joshua Tree Tour
Unforgettable Fire Tour
Zoo TV Tours

Not live material, but interesting anyway is this Megamix

If you ever want to look for an older topic, the SEARCH function is a great place to start.

Hope this helps

Originally posted by dizzyThanks Dan, Johnny,

I appreciate your taking the time to post that.

As mentioned, I'm not much into bootlegs at the moment, but I have wondered in passing what are considered the best from each tour if I decide to collect a few in future, so those lists and links are appreciated.

At present, life is busy and my internet arrangement is not optimal. If//when I do decide to download some material however, I will let you know and be more than happy to reciprocate and help out with this project- it looks great.

Thanks again!



Jay

Love this site! First came across it a few weeks ago and really love the content and layout, and everyone seems really friendly too.

Thanks to djrlewis for suggesting I post here.

...I've been a U2 fan since 1988 (age 12), so this Joshua Tree re-release (once I accepted that it was not indicative that they're becoming "backward looking" as a band) has been very enjoyable. Love the DVD, I recommend it if you're on the fence about which version to pick up.

Have been fortunate to see U2 on three tours, also was fortunate to get to upload "Stay" footage from the recent & now-famous Union Chapel gig:

Glad to be here!
