    Don't give them any more undue publicity. U2 has to be the most over rated band in recent history. Their new song is woeful.

    *cough* publicity stunt *cough

    These guys must be mates with the guy who happened to be walking past Bono's villa with a recording device when he was blaring the new album on to a public beach in France.

    Funniest thing about that was the guy who covered his face with a magazine when the camera was going by him, clearly he was skipping work to pick up a ps3.

    Would love to download the album art, stick it into am empty CD case and accidentally drop it while walking out of HMV, right between those two knobheads. Then I'd video them firstly ejaculating with glee and fighting eachother to the death over it.

    I noticed these lads alright. Didn't know what was going on at all. There was a mini crowd around them at the time.

    What a waste of a few days.

    Saw them on Monday, just as they finished setting up. Mate went to ask them what they queuing for. I told him it was gonna be U2 related. When they confirmed this...'eh, good luck with that:rolleyes:'. Why would you bother(for anything, espcially U2 though)?

    Yeah, that's the first thing that popped into my head too.
    Is there any precedent for people queuing in Dublin for U2 albums? It seems a bit strange to me.

    It's happened for most of their albums i think. You'd usually have dave fanning talking to the gobdaws involved, it's usually the same ones involved every time.

    Didn't their last "release" expose some freak who queued for days, then booked into a hotel so he could spend the night listening to it by himself?

    Wtf is wrong with U2 and their fans?

    Well he probably won't read it, and whether he's an arsehole or not, what do you acheive by saying he's an arsehole on in internet forum, what a useless comment.
