U2′s new, very pretty, Joshua Tree
Here’s a picture (and here’s more) of the extra superduper edition of U2′s 20th anniversary Joshua Tree release. Did you get it, or did you stick to the ‘ordinary’ double CD? How are you liking it so far?

- U2 Fan Survey 2012: Third Set of Results Available May 23, 2012The third set of results from the 2012 U2 Fan Survey is now available, and it takes us through your votes on U2's albums and songs. As a reminder, the survey was open from April 5th through April 30th. We received completed responses from 3,530 fans in 79 countries this year, both of which are down from 2010. We think that's likely due to the band […]
- A Look at My U2 Framed Album Cover Wall (PHOTOS) May 22, 2012How would you like to have a wall in your house covered with perfectly framed U2 album cover art? You could just have your favorite U2 albums on the wall or, like me, you could go all the way and put every U2 album on display in order — like this: That’s one of the [...]This is a post from the @U2 blog.A Look at My U2 Framed Album Cover Wall (PHOTOS) […]
- The Resource Miracle May 22, 2012[Note: This essay appeared in the May 28, 2012, edition of TIME magazine.] It's become the go-to cliché of modern economics. Natural resources are a "curse." When a nation is over-reliant on one or two commodities like oil or precious minerals, corrupt government ministers and their dodgy associates hoard profits and taxes instead of properly […]
- Bono Pays One More Tribute to Steve Jobs May 22, 2012Bono made an appearance via video tonight at the Webby Awards, contributing to a tribute to Steve Jobs. A host of tech legends and celebrities each paid tribute to Jobs in five words or less, a Webby Awards tradition. It looks like Bono’s contribution was recorded within the past week, but that’s just a guess. [...]This is a post from the @U2 blog.Bono Pays […]

I’m loving it!

Gotta love a box full of Joshua Tree.
But I have to wait until Christmas before I get mine. Patience, patience!

How could you wait for Christmas to enjoy this? I just got in the mail yesterday and I’m loving it (the box set that is). My first U2 concert was Zoo TV in 1992 so watching the full U2 Paris concert was really cool since I never saw them on that tour (though I did find a Joshua Tree Tour program book at my local record store in 1990). The CDs sound fantastic as well.

Do you know anything about the new tv series Whedon is making a pilot for? I bet he’s a big U2 fan.

Well, I know Fox gave him an order for 8 scripts, so it’s better than a just a pilot. That doesn’t mean they’ll be aired, but it shows a little more confidence than if it had just been a pilot script. The show’s premise reminds me of Dark Angel a bit, maybe a little less violent and obviously better written
It should happen somewhere around Spring 2008, if the strike ends as soon as we all hope it does.

I got the full box set. “Still Haven’t Found” has been my favorite song since ’87 and the Paris concert is the best version I’ve ever heard. The three part harmony with Adam is indescribable, but “absolute perfection” comes pretty close, I think!! I’ve been to my share of U2 concerts, but man, this one must’ve been unreal….

This is absolutely worth paying for for the DVD alone. I found a U2 song I’d never seen (they exist) live “The Unforgettable Fire.” It nearly broke my brain. Also: U2 were in colour.
