I feel all your pain. I think we are all starved for new U2 music, that it seems unbearable to wait.

I have listened to the CDs now and they are amazing! It seems like one, cohesive concert. My fav so far is One Tree Hill, I guess because it is so rarely played. I certainly have not heard it at a show I was at.
I'd love to get this setlist.
most of my top songs. OOC, The Fly and most importantly BAD

Arrived in the OC today in southern Cali!!! WOOO HOO!!!! Packaging like holding a double vinyl album is amazing. Clever idea!!!

It felt very nostalgic to have that size. I wasn't expecting it at all. More to love!  :)

I received mine this evening in southern California.  An awesome package, notably the artwork.

I wasn't either. But I like the change. Excellent gift and very well done put together. There's a few songs I would rather have because I have many live songs of most of these songs but it's a good setlist regardless and sounds awesome and as an actual 360 show.

Who's actually delivering this? UPS, US Mail. I have nothing so far and it sucks.

Mine came by USPS. It's the size of a vinyl record so probably won't be in the normal mail box. I'm sure will be left by front door as mine was yesterday.

When I returned home from Michigan yesterday, my U22 was waiting for me (in Akron, Ohio)! Listening now. I must say there are some special moments on here. The Unforgettable Fire is so freaking amazing, I'm getting goosebumps. I'd have killed to have heard that at one of my shows!!

Also, really liked the Never Tear Us Apart and Slide Away Snippets in All I Want Is You.

My only complaint is that I think they added some fake crowd noise in some of the tracks... much like Wide Awake In America with A Sort of Homecoming. I can forgive them for that, though.

The packaging is stunning!!

Oh, also loved the Frank Santra snippets in UTEOTW!

have ALWAYS loved UF and still remains in my top 5 all time songs. Was wonderful to see it brought back this past tour and sounded fresh as ever!!! Should NEVER NEVER dropped from the setlist in the other legs...NEVER!!! Thanks fans for recognizing such an amazing piece of art. The Unforgettable Fire!!!! ..will always burn! :D

Got mine yesterday via UPS in Colorado. Awesome. Booklet is also very nice as are Adam's song notes. WOWY gave me goosebumps just like the first time I heard it. Was it worth the wait? I think so- they did an amazing job of putting this together.

I called them. She told me they are shipping based on when the orders were placed. I renewed in April so I'm guessing that was my "order date" (although I've been a member since Propaganda). She also said that mine has not shipped yet and should this week. When I asked her to verify which address they had she read off an old address which I've updated a few moths ago online. Thankfully it didnt ship or else somebody else would have received my U22.  This is frustrating. All I want to hear is freaking Zooropa!

No clue. When I asked if I would have it by Sunday she said it's possible if it ships this week. When I asked if I could expedite she said she could not.
