  1. I also don't think this is going to happen, but would be great!!

    Would be even better if they including some b-sides as Walk To The Water (with lyrics changed), Wave of Sorrow played by 4 members (Edge and Bono did once) and Luminous Times (Edge also talk about this before 360°), but I don't believe in this, it's just a dream.
  2. Well this is a lot more exciting than the recent politics
  3. January 17th is a Tuesday. Probably just a translation error between sources, but still there's nothing official out there yet.

    I saw that Manics Anniversary concert in Amsterdam last year and loved it! Certainly NOT boring! But otherwise I agree; bring on i&e part2, we already celebrated JT five years ago, for pete's sake....


    I saw them in cologne last zear and all the previous years after the 2015 show was really good I thought zes let's go and then saw a band rusching through the album like a shinkansen ... and the encore was the same as always ... so I prefere a new album and a band on fire willing to play these tunes.

    also I think all these album shows (of whom ever) are a moneymaking cash cow. and I guess that what u2 will do (even if it is a political favour for live nation)

    this would be my Ultimate Wet Dream........... If only.....
  6. I don't think also, just a wish. Song is quit complicated to sing and to play. But maybe with some extra backingvocals for the high notes and additional musicians.

    Although I'd prefer bono and the band to just play red hill mining town I think if they were to do it you might be on to something with someone coming in to sing the song. It's clear Bono won't be singing it in the style of the album at least for the chorus so it would need to be mellowed a good bit although I think it would be possibly too low if he went the other way. So if they were determined to play full album then yeah special guest type thing sounds quite possible. I'm starting to think they could do maybe 8 of the album ditching exit, trip and red hill mining town. In gods country could easily be nailed acoustically, one tree hill and mothers of the disappeared both appeared on 360 tour and sounded good as well I thought. The first 4 on the album have all been played recently, and running to stand still would be easy enough too. If they played the 8 I'd be pretty happy but would miss the other 3.
  8. Olympic Stadium in Rome rumoured for July.
  9. wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
  10. It's gonna be a busy year for us fokes!
  11. I think my bank account is going to take a hammering by the end of the month. Here's hoping PJ don't announce a tour at the same time...
