another day, another day without U22 in my mailbox. and no response from U2.com

sad because they've been helpful and quick the other times I've contacted them

No, no, of course U22 isn't already available to download online! Why would you ever think that? What, you think you can just search "download U22" and it'll come up? No way!

Anyone in the New York City area get theirs? I'm still waiting patiently ;D

Yes, I got mine Saturday.




Thanks. If you don't mind me asking, when did you renew? I'm trying to gauge when I should expect mine.

I renewed in January.

Thanks. I renewed last month so I guess I have a bit of a wait :(

Okay, I must say that I've not been able to listen to U22 in its entirety at once, but now I can say I've listened to all the songs.

My personal highlights:

Bono's beautiful vocals, a la Ol' Blue Eyes, on UTEOTW and really just the entire song rocked it. For me, it rocked it even more so than The Fly which was a bit of a surprise.

The Intro to Beautiful Day

MLK intro to Walk On

Stay - beautiful vocals!

All I Want Is You - love this and the add in snippets.

Creme de la Creme - Zooropa is the recording from MY FIRST EVER U2 CONCERT!!! Wahooo! Just when I thought it couldn't get any better!!!!  ;D

The only thing that could have made this even more perfect was to use the Bad recording from Pittsburgh, their last stop on the US leg and my 2nd ever U2 concert.

I'm totally OK parting w/ $50 for my new u2.com membership to get this CD. (If you knew me, you'd be surprised!)

Love it!!  :-*

Beautiful Day intro was awesome

Zooropa was awesome

Bad *should* have been from Pittsburgh, but it was probably just too long with all of the snippets

I still am upset about no Miss Sarajevo.

Still waiting.....

I'm guessing geography has to do with it. And I know that having a major wild fire burning close by is not affecting my mail delivery!

Each and every song was amazing.  The intro to UTEOTW was beautiful as well as MLK and the intro to Beautiful day.  I think that was the best version of Streets I have ever heard.  Stay gives me chills, beautiful vocals.  Party Girl intro to MOS was fun! I also wanted Miss Sarajevo.  I've listened to the whole thing now, and I can guarantee I will be playing it over and over again.

Mine was waiting at the door for me yesterday when I got home.  Still haven't listened to it, though.

I know what you mean. Normally I haven't been in any hurry to get my subscription gift but I'm super excited about this one. Naturally it's taking the longest and I've kind of given up on ever getting it.
