I moved part of my stuff into my new apartment today and will finish tomorrow. Wahoo.
The most exciting news however, is that the next U2 album (that I am looking forward to more than this last one) might be out by December.

Is it that Blackberry one that they're promo-ing right now?

Marie said...

No, it is a new one. They got most of it done already and will just put the finishing touches on it in December and January. It is the more experimental half of the No Line on the Horizon recording sessions. That is why I am really excited. We'll see if it ends up being that way.

huh. intriguing. i need to go thru my U2 stuff and let you know what I have, b/c I think I've got stuff that you don't. you might be interested in some of it.
the word verification for this comment is "leche" i.e. Spanish for "milk"
bizarre.

I would love any U2 you have. Let me know and I'll tell you if I have it already or not.

Communication (Limited Edition)
Live at Irving Plaza, NY (Dec 5, 200) [it's just okay]
Melon: Remixes for Propaganda
Salomé The Achtung Baby Sessions
Flower Child (from the All that you Can't...sessions)
And then some more at home. I'm checking at work.

I'll let you know once I double check at home.

i know i have the melon and the salome ones, but i am not sure about the communication one or the live at irving plaza (I locked myself out of my new computer with all of the U2 on it by forgetting my password-arghhh!). I would be really interested in the flower child one as well as some of the others.

Vanessa Swenson said...

Locked out? thoroughly frustrating.
K, I will get you that music.

Also, from my home computer:
The Golden Unplugged Album
Medium, Rare and Remastered

MRandR is a collection of songs, some with alternate lyrics, other with alternate music added, etc etc
You also have Popmart Live in Mexico, no?

Marie said...

Okay, so I looked them all up and discovered what I have already. I have some from MR and R, but would like it anyway-it has some great ones that I don't have. I also would like Flower Child and Communication (Limited Edition). I have everything else. Thanks. If necessary, I can pick something up sometime when I'm down there, but I know you have tricky ways of getting things to me.:)

I just got the Blackberry App that is for the U2 album thingie. Remember the commercials?
Anyway, it the commercials were misleading. It's just No Line that you download as an app. Then if you want the whole song, you gotta buy it. Stoooopid. I already have the album in higher quality. Anyway, some of the videos that come with the songs are like karaoke. Why would I want that?

Marie said...

That is unfortunate indeed. U2 has never been shy about being in things for the money, but that is no reason to mislead people. Down with the moneygrubbers!
