      I was disappointed we didn't get one for women too, I'm sure there will be some during the tour. I got the white, in case I'm lucky enough to get it signed :)

      I've gave up on my discount code years ago! the men's ones are shapeless

      The men's ones are shapeless, but I'm not the size of a Barbie doll either, so that one it is. I was shocked at the size of the "women's" angel shirt we had to get my mini me 3 years ago when she was 9.

  2. This new give-away is soooooo exciting! Loving reading everyone's stories.

  3. I love hot air balloons. Great pictures!
  4. Monday morning, why do you always have to show up so soon?

  5. LOL! I'm clearly out of the loop on that. hahaha I did hear something about a volcano tho but didn't pay it much attention. Wherever I read it, they may have been being silly. I don't know. I tend to take everything with a grain of salt unless it's on here. But nonetheless, that did crack me up.
  6. Some people are just plain awesome!

  7. :wub: Good Idea !!! & We Want U2.com/Propaganda subscribers superPriority for the presales Yeah!
  8. Ok, so the rumours of the stage being a volcano are kinda cracking me up. First they came out of a lemon and now they are going to rise up out of a volcano. LOL
  9. I didn't find it that difficult for the Vertigo tour with the presales here. Hopefully, we'll get those again and all will be good. Mind you, it was nerve wracking, but it always has been.
  10. Have been trying to order the Q magazine for 4 days now and the link is still broken. grrrrrrr........

  11. Favourite Bono quote right now: 'these songs are rare, they’re like miracles, and they’re almost impossible. If you hear ‘Every Breaking Wave’ played on a piano, you just fall over. And if it doesn’t move you, you’re either deaf or dead, or you should be.'

      "'...if it doesn’t move you, you’re either deaf or dead, or you should be.'" LOL! Speak it Bono, speak it. :)

      Yup, Rhi_K. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout. Lol. Can I get a witness?

  12. Yay for friends who look out for you!

  13. Why couldn't the US edition of Time have U2 on the cover?!?!?!

      I bet those are coming....or at least I hope so!

      I'm greedy (especially when it comes to U2) so I'm already wondering what the next U2-fanclub Gift will be !

    4. Alma1

      Alma1

      Malahide :P:D What's on our cover - fluffy bunnies? I wouldn't be surprised.

      I once saw examples of the difference between what's on the cover the same week for Europe compared to America & if it's any indication then Europeans care more about important things. I love my country but we are sometimes (often?) the land of fluff! And U2 ain't fluff (being anti-saccharine & all that).

  14. Hubby thinks SOI is the best album in years. That's saying a lot from him.....

      My hubby said the same and he's not a 'fan' as such, said it's the best thing he's heard from them in years

      I was replying to the NOLTH thing, I was saying I love it as much as SOI !

  15. Cutest.thing.ever. Mini-me was in her room playing the album, listening to The Troubles, pretending to be Lykke Li.

      Absolutely, I mean how could they have overlooked us for The Troubles!

      I don't think they realize what they are missing!

      Today I needed to cry and couldn't, I watched Boston 2001 to coax it out, almost, but not quite, there's nothing else for it...Slane Castle it is!

      ABSOLUTELY AGREE 101%

      I cried !!! The album collided with my personal losses !! ! When I listen to U2 material it's like I'm traveling though my own life....The most painful memories are the loss of childhood and persons I loved/still love...Tough business !!!

  17. When did it become so fashionable to hate U2? My goodness, there is a lot of ugliness out there.

      Seen a PILE of ugliness in 'comments' sections on a few different sites alright! Its all Bono this Bono that!The man must be made of teflon. Ah well thats the way it goes! Different strokes for different folks., pity some people cant just say "No I don't like it"and qualify it by what they think is good instead so one can reply politely. Very hard to engage with someone who appears to be hateful and not qualifying it or backing it up!!! He who laugh...

  18. I was aching to be somewhere near your voice. GAH! *thud*

      I swear the man nailed it on The Miracle about how I felt when I saw them in Dublin in 1993.

    3. Anjana

      Anjana

      The man has nailed it full stop!

  19. I woke up this morning to Bono screaming "raised by wolves" in my head.

      Just realised my mistake on the lyric there, not used to being unfamiliar with U2 lyrics!

      I was out in the middle of the country at my mum's house with just my iPhone, no wifi and shoddy reception, but God was good and I managed to see them perform and get the news!

  25. 21 years ago, I was dreaming out loud in Dublin with that little band from the Northside. What an amazing musical journey it was.

      @Anjana, I don't know what they were actively doing in 1993, but it did not involve me!

      lol. Maybe that's when they put the batteries in to activate them!!
