this tour was amazing. so was their new cd. best cd in a long time
hoping for a fall leg of the tour....
Honestly what good is it for me to have paid for something that I can't use (but I have paid for through 2019) and people have the right to restrict me from posting on with no warning simply for voicing my concerns in a polite manner?
So what exactly did you do to get kicked off a forum while talking about a membership item issue in a thread about a membership item issue? You must have really been raging or something for that to happen....As I said earlier I was posting in a thread specifically made to talk about the membership items. I was restricted from posting for "abusive behavior" for trying to figure out what was going on when I hadn't gotten any information for something I paid for a year ago. I basically wasted money on this "fan club" because when I did end up getting the records one is warped and the spines are messed up.0 -

I got email notification for arrival of Achtung Baby and Zooropa. But I don't get them until August 8.
Can't wait. Achtung Baby is unreal. And Zooropa has significant personal value for me.I'll ride the wave where it takes me......0 -

Answer me this...if you were in my position, where you were restricted from posting in the forums (that is supposidly part of what you paid for) and your membership item came a year late and damaged would you feel happy with what you paid for?
I still enjoy the music that the band makes but I think that their fan club is an absolute load of nonsense, especially after being part of the 10club and seeing how well things are handled here.0 -

On a side not, ordered pop on vinyl after I saw them this past tour and really really love it.I'll ride the wave where it takes me......0 -
I need to get these albums. I always thought Pop was a great album and played the shit out of it when it came out. They were still willing to not be like old U2 and and I think they really pulled it off. This week I pulled out my Pop CD and threw it in my 5 CD player in my barn where I do stuff that doesn't really need to be done or takes longer then necessary. Check back with me in October - that CD will still be in rotation.

I am.
One day, when we are having beer and eating pizza that I order... I'll detail why Zooropa is huge for me!"My brain's a good brain!"0 -
Sounds good to me bud!
That intro to the album with the piano and static is amazing. I wish they had a whole song like that.
Did you see them live in the early 90's?Post edited by mcgruff10 onI'll ride the wave where it takes me......0 -

I had no sort of warning or anything (about the ban) and I wasn't repeating myself I was simply trying to figure out what was going on and trying to get help in tracking down my package.0 -

I've been really busy the last few days, but I've managed to spin the whole album. Solid. Exactly what I had hoped for."My brain's a good brain!"0
