  1. My thoughts exactly! It's the only design I'd love to wear. They should make it in adult sizes, too!
  7. Things to make and do - original 7".


  12. Is that a part of the tree you took away from the site?? Really??

    THAT makes me sick. Also knowing that the week before I visited, tons more items were there and obviously people stole them (guitar, guitar picks, vinyls), makes me SO SICK.
    This is a site to remember, to celebrate and enjoy the band, the album, their journey which all of us also led there. Not to destroy nature or steal things from other fans. They had a reason, leaving it there. It meant something to them, something huge probably. And some freak just takes it home, having a trophy on their shelf.

    NO-GO.

    If every U2 fan would have ripped a part of the tree since its death, nothing would have been left of it by the end of 2002. Who knows, maybe U2 fans were the reason, it died - because they climbed on it, ripped parts off of it or whatever. The other tree nearby is still there and beautifully living.


    When I went there, I just stood there in awe, enjoying the beautiful landscape, totally understandig why Anton picked the site (it was right before sunset). Enjoying the idea of what happened there 30 years ago. It's a place to just breathe in and follow your thoughts. Not for stealing.
    I looked at the items, enjoyed digging thru them and reading a few notes. And then put everything back in place right where it was. The only things I took were photographs and some dust from the ground on my shoes.

    And I bet they are all proud to have a part of a dead tree or someone elses memorabilia on their shelf as "proof".
    But hey, an item for your collection! Bravo!
