U2 Tour Dates - Now Official!- Page 28

I haven't really scoured setlists of yore, but I was just kind of under the impression that they'd kind of shake some things up from leg to leg. Actually, I'm kind of just going by REM's current tour. They swapped out a couple of classics from the US to the European leg, as well as a couple of the tracks from the newest album. I just figured U2 might do something similar. Like, Electric Co/An Cat may be replaced by a couple of other rare oldies, and maybe NYD and SBS could be replaced by a pair of other classics (I Will Follow, perhaps?!?!) Just a thought. I really have no idea how this stuff works or if there's any rhyme or reason to it.

I'm not *as* 1990-2000 savvy myself. I had the best of, but it's currently among the missing. I have no idea where it could be, and I really don't want to buy another copy.

*hangs head* I admit I don't own the 90-00 CD. (Pop?? I mean...really.) I have every intention to, though!

I'm familiar with Rufus, but I don't like that photo of him. He looks like Hayden Christensen's love child with Ryder Strong. (Hey, it could happen!)

Mabel! I trust you to educate me on what was going on with the boys from '90-'00! After getting my ass handed to me by a few diehards outside GM Place that day, I realize I've still got so much to learn! So start, girl!

*sits back with a bowl of chips*

So Paul Hewson was born many years ago......

I'd assume they'd switch it up between legs, just like mabel said. I would think they'd get bored doing the same thing every night for the whole tour. I mean, not really bored, but just that they'd want to shake it up a bit and try new things.

If they released a dvd of MSG, you have no idea how excited I would be. Especially one of the shows I attended (I'm seeing the first and last MSG shows). What a keepsake that would be.

ETA: I could send you guys copies of the 1990-2000 cd if you want. Just let me know, I would be happy to help in your education of U2! I'm not too familiar with that period, either, at least not as much as with their earlier stuff. Updated On: 3/31/05 at 08:28 PM

Was that one of the stolen CDs, mabel?

Oh, and to correct my previous post...their last live DVD was Slane, not Dublin. Which is in County Meath, fact fans.

*eyes glaze* It's all over the Atlantic anyway.

#1, yes please! What do you want in return?? I can pay for S&H or send you a copy of another CD I have!

Posted: 3/31/05 at 8:35pm

Do you have Zooropa and Pop, gals? I'm kind of a completist.

[mabel]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 8:38pm

No...that was a CD I lost all on my own! It was in the glove compartment of my mom's car for the longest time, but alas, it is gone now. I have no idea if my mom took it out, or I did at some point. Either way, it's long gone in the abyss that is our house. Seriously, that place sucks up stuff faster than dryers suck up socks!

The stolen CDs were Gavin Degraw's Chariot, Cervers' Dog Eared, Pascal's Civilian (a signed one! ) and an Alice Ripley bootleg or two.

Oh no! I can send you a copy of Civilan if you need it!

[mabel]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 8:41pm

Actually, I don't have all that many of their CDs *hangs head in shame* Though I do have October among my sorry selection, probably the least essential of them all (wouldn't ya think?).

<-- same here

The duck doesn't have all that many, huh? Bad duck. He's probably a Britney fan.

[#1Elphie]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 8:44pm

Nah, I don't have Zooropa and Pop. I'm a bad fan.

I don't mind burning&sending the 1990-2000 cds to anyone who doesn't have them, its really no big deal. Just PM me your addresses I guess and I'll send 'em out! I don't need anything in return.

ETA: Tiff, what happened to Bono!?

Awww Tiff, that'd be cool if you could throw it in w/ the others that I'll get sometime before August! Hoorah! Ever since I came to school, I try to make copies of everything I buy, and I swear I made copies of both Civilian and Dog Eared (I brought them home to give copies to my mom over the Thanksgiving break)...HEY, I think those were also left in the car. What the hell?!?!? Something funky's going on that that Chevy! CDs go in, but they don't come out! Anyway, I swear I'm not a total dolt loosing things all the time, but it seems like CDs just disappear (especially the ones I like!) What happened to the Best of 90-00, ATYCLB, Civilian, Cerveris, You're a Good Man Charlie Brown (the case in in the CD rack, but I can't find the CD for the life of me!...that one's not really a biggie, but it's still annoying)

[#1Elphie]

Mabel, if you want 1990-2000, ATYCLB, Civilian, and YAGMCB, let me know because I have those and I owe you!

[Type_A_Tiff]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 8:52pm

I hear you. I lost my Aida OBCR a few months ago and I STILL can't find it. It was the one from the Palace too, with the OBC image on the CD.

Sure, I'll make a copy of Civilian. Can you, er, remind me what else I'm supposed to burn you? (Either on here or PM.) I know BFO...I don't remember what else.

What, are we hating on the duck (is it a duck or a seagull)? I'm trying my hand at "cutesy avatars". I don't think it suits me. Someone on interference has a lovely dark photo of Bono lying at the side of the stage, singing. Maybe I'll steal that.

[mabel]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 8:58pm

Aww, Elphie, I'd love The Best of and YAGMCB (I guess you and Tiff could duke it out on Civilian). I appreciate it both of you, really!

Tiff, I honestly don't even remember what other one I'd said. Ummm, Hair maybe? Sure, let's say Hair. I enjoy Adam and Raul, so that's good enough for me!

I'll double check our emails again. Hair sounds familiar.

Oh, and it's Elphie, not Ellie, who's offering her generosity. Ellie's the selfish bitch who's now acting all quiet.

Well, I hopped right on fixing that typo!

Mabel, never overestimate your cheapness until you meet Miss Stingypants herself. *bores eyes into peroxide blonde who's looking at own feet*

[mabel]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 9:08pm

Say it ain't so Ellie. Giving me a run for my money in the cheap bastard department!?!?!?

[#1Elphie]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 9:09pm

I decided I should give up Christina for a while and try a new avatar (since Tiff ditched Bono in hers)...what do y'all think?

[Ellie3]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 9:10pm

Yay new icon, Elphie!

C'mon Mabel, change yours! We're all doing it! I'm not much of a fan of podgy Bono.

And peroxide? How dare you!

[mabel]

Posted: 3/31/05 at 9:12pm

Awww, I kind of like pudgy Bono w/ his ass hanging out! There was another amusing picture of him on interference of him out jogging that I was tempted to use (though I suppose you'd object to that too)...The man should not wear shorts! What a pasty, pasty Irishman!
