That's how long it took to convince the band to re-record the New Mix of Gone wasn't it?

Although that said, don't put it past them to put out that many.

Would he still be banned if he mentioned U2 and dead in two sentences? Plus I see you mentioned U2 and dead, so should you not be banned there?


Actually, that could be a new rule.


Should, the world is not a perfect place Plus we cant miss Casper

I don't know if it's already been said by another Dutch-speaking member (i'm NOT going to read those 50 pages you know), but this looks soooo wrong
SOA in Dutch is "Seksueel Overdraagbare Aandoening" or "Sexually Transmitted Disease"

Btw MWSAH, i thought you were Dutch, so i'm glad you still don't have a SOA

PS Sorry if this has been said before OR if this is a stupid remark

Paul McGuiness Interview in a Chile newspaper



I've translated it for you non-Spanish speakers


Like just another one visitor in Midem, the worldwide musical industry which is taking place this days in Cannes (France), goes Paul McGuiness, the one and only manager that U2 has had in over 30 years.

It's widely believed that this good-natured Irish is mainly who turned a group of 4 Irish boys into the biggest band of the world. And, always interested by what's going on in the musical bussiness, McGuinness answers a few of our questions. "We, U2, are in the live music business. We started with some shyness, but we've become the biggest live band of the world, maybe even the biggest band in the history of popular music. With this tour, we'll do, at least, 90 concerts; we did 45 last year and we're planning to do another 45 during 2010. In total, we're bound to play to about 6 million people", he says.
According to McGuinness, U2 is thinking / has thought seriously in the idea of releasing their own videogame, Rock Band-style. "We haven't decided what will it be like, but we really wanna do it. And soon. Really soon".


- It was said that U2 would come back to Chile in november of this year.
We're probably not going to South America this year (2010). Maybe we go over there on early 2011, but we have to decide/define it yet. The reason is that this tour has 3 giant stages, that have to travel by ship, in over 200 containers... The cost of each tour day is about 3'000'000 $... But we'll do whateveer we can to go back to South America, of course.

- When you define yourself as a "live band", do you care about the crisis that the world's living right now?
U2 has become, with the years, in a live band; but that doesn't mean that we don't have respect for the proper albums. In fact, we put lots of efforts in our last recording, and we have cared about every detail of its presentation live. Moreover, since the start of the tour we have kept the ticket prices lower than usual.

-The band has made some contracts and agreements with telephon companies and other formats to sell their music.
Yes, the music is evolutioning and focusing in the digital market, the downloads and other kind of electronic stuff... but the digital supply companies don't care about (ED. or "have yet not cared about" of inverting in new platforms that satisfy the musicians, yet. I think that the whole thing is changing, indeed, but it will take some time until it stablishes and normalizes again.

-It is said that U2 is currently working in the NLOTH successor/continuation.
We'll resume the tour in California, next June... and of course the boys have been working composing new songs. We probably will reelease a new album after the tour (ED Note: yes, he said "after" the tour), but I don't know for sure, I'm not certain.
