    Things look good on this side of the world...it's been snowing since early morning in Tehran! We've got around 25-30 cm of snow right now, which is beautiful and fun!


    We learn things every day...

    25-30 cm of snow, that's quite a lot! I've been iceskating today on the longest icetrack of the world, here in Holland. It's a 400m track and a 5km track. Was lovely...Holland is a typical iceskate-country, it was very busy with even some Frenchmen and Germans on the ice.

    Well, it's simple....perfection and getting it right - which sometimes, like Chicago DVD doesn't quite work.

    I know, always there are mistakes (except on the ZOO TV Sydney DVD, where I couldn't find any mistake - it's perfect), but for the people who were at the shows it must be some kind of piss-off to know that "your" version wasn't good enough...

    BTW thanks for that "knows everything has to do w/ bootlegs"

    Zoo TV Sydney is so cool...I mean, it's from one night only which makes it so consistent (have to thank Adam for that huge hangover ) and then it's also perfect, no probs with it!
    But...Chicago: 2 nights, Slane: 2 nights...

    Yep. I'd prefer that they filmed JUST one night always, and show us that DVD with all, the good and the bad. Everyone makes mistakes, fans wouldnt have any problem with that.

    Thanks for that title of Technology Administrator. One back.

    How many fans over at u2.com and those sites (and those that buy only the official DVDs) would know about DVD bootlegs and the editing? I'd bet not many. I mean, it's not just happening on DVDs either recently...only last week did I find out after Gerard pointed out that the Under A Blood Red Sky CD was not fully recorded at Red Rocks!!! In other places too like Gorschausen (is it spelt like that)?

    After getting the Red Rocks bootleg I thought some editing had been done due to if you listen to ''40'', it's actually a different speech.

    And obviously Milan isn't consistent either.

    Yes, but harsh editing mistakes as Gone on Boston 01 DVD is very noticeable for everyone, although it isn't happening too much (well, Zoo Station in Chicago...). And, as you pointed, not everyone knows about filming different nights, etc. That's true, and IMO that's good. Less people faked...

    It's spelled Saint (St) Goarshausen And I know, I never knew that UABRS was from differernt nights until I began to join forums etc. In fact, only Gloria and Party Girl are from Red Rocks.

    Obviously
  8. What's the mistakes with Boston? I didn't notice it.
  9. Agree with all of you: just bring out a single DVD from one single night, with all the goods and the bads. A show like Saitama 12-04(yep, that one again ) is excellent, also when out on DVD. But I know it has to be filmed ofcourse...

    If you're gonna bring out a DVD - make it one fucking night, not twelve nights. If the December 4 show impressed you, grab the 29th and 30th in Tokyo...two great, great nights.
  11. good morning people!!!
    how is everyone doing today???

    that must be sarcasm. The 2 different couloured guitars during Gone. Band members being in completely different parts of the stage in on shot then somewhere else a second later. Just doesn't have the feel of one show
