1. Yes people still buy blurays
  2. Guys - when is this out?? If it’s November are we getting an announcement soon?
  3. November was the last rumoured date but that same rumour also mentioned a September announcement which obviously hasn’t happened so maybe it’s all been put back or maybe the announcement is just going to be later but the release date the same.

    I would love it if they pressed it on vinyl, but again, too hard to do this it would seem. It is utter BS that there are no U2 shows on vinyl post 1987 (aside from bootlegs of course) and that was only released in 2017.


    Iggy Pop’s post pop depression live is a dvd plus two disc cd set in a Nice simpel cartboard sleeve. Realy Nice, would love a u2 release of live stuff like that

    I've seen that but it's too expensive for me.
  6. It'll probably be next year at this rate.

    This release cycle is a mess.
  7. Everything went south in 2016 with the SOE/EI Tour delay. Nothing fits anymore. I actually wouldn't be surprised if they ditched the Joshua Tree 2017 and/or the EI releases altogether. Who buys DVDs/blurays nowadays anyway?

    I keep on seeing this question about who buys DVD’s, plenty of people still do. U2 have got fans that buy everything related to the band, then they’ve got fans like me who at least buy all the new albums and tour DVD’s. I&e Paris reached #1 in both the uk and US music dvd charts, number 4 in Brazil as well. I’m not saying they charts will require an enormous amount of sales to reach #1 but if they’re beating all the other artists that are releasing DVD’s you can be sure they’ll keep on doing what they’ve been doing.

    I didn't know the IE release reached #1 in the UK and US, that's quite an achievement to be honest.

    And yet I still defend that releasing a Joshua Tour bluray from a show of 2-3 years ago (and moreover, when there's another iteration of the tour taking place - or just taken place, depending on when it'd be released) would make no sense. The most plausible scenario IMO is that they mix 2017 and 2019 footage (assuming they eventually reuse 99% of the stage) and release the damn thing in 2020.

    No, nothing makes sense,
    Nothing seems to fit...

    So give us E+I DVD/Bluray now and JT17/19 in 2020
