fucking sad i remember this, lol

Especially with as much as you smoke!

^^^^I dont remember telling anything about that

I can smell your place all the way over here! That Gulf breeze is a bitch.

This is quite funny considering they only had 3 copies flown around the world in briefcases handcuffed to the label executives' arm. If that doesn't stop it getting leaked, what will?

^^^ arms can be cut off.. have you not seen Snatch? lol

They have enough money... they'll survive. Besides this isn't hip hop here, their fans will want the official limited edition blah blah copy.

if the copy of their new album slipped from their staff, i guess its because someone was not verry pleased on how much he got from its work on their album i respect bono and the band, their music and their actions all over the world, real fans wont get the pirated album, they will purchase the oficcial one, and i m sure u2 has lots of fans all over the worl

The boys aren't dumb,surely they must be aware that it will be on the net in no time.But I think they are so well respected and admired that the album will still sell bucketloads as well.

As if U2's Baby Boomer fans can work a computer. :lol:

I'm planning on buying the album. I've never been disappointed by any of them yet so hopefully this one will be the same.

Achtung Baby :RockOn: :RockOn:

Even when they let Garth Algar play drums alongside them on stage?

Thanks the links guys!!! :lol: This great!!!I like U2!!! :mrgreen: :Naughty: :RockOn:

Re: Pirated U2 album hits internet 2 weeks early

Having an album hit the internet 2 weeks before its release date is no news in this day and age. Thats more like the norm. U2 will still sell a ton of the album.

good point, bands who have mosty older fans arn't that affected

edit: i forgot, they ask there kids to get it probably :roll:
