I have the choccy bar but not the ONE CD, like that myself ;-)



I love the 3 inch CD's. Picked up the All I Want Is You snap box case a fortnight ago and I am patiently waiting for When Love Comes To Town. Just so cool. The 3 inch Bomb singles are joint first with my Australian Numb video as favored items

I have the Joshua Tree Cardiff poster. That one is pretty cool. I also have the R&H One Sheet and the (4) individual advance posters - each featuring a U2 member. I got all (4) for $20.00 at a shop in Hollywood around the time of the Zoo tours. I've got the R&H Press Packet. Has photos, slides, lobby cards. Good times. And I've the lobby banner. (Somewhere!). Being that I was a projectionist in the mid-1980's - mind-1990's, I had access to these.

I suggest E-Bay. Most willing to part with any U2 posters, memorabilia, CD's, etc. can be found there.

I found a copy of The Unforgettable Fire CD single for a friend for a mere $11.00 - on E-Bay.

And I have obtained plenty of U2 posters from War through Vertigo, for decent prices, via E-Bay.

Another place I've seen, found and bought CD singles from U2 and others is Matts CD Singles.

This is a true story .When i got married in '02 a friend of mine in the U.S wanted to know what to get my wife and i for a present ,so the wife asked for bed sheets (as women tend to). Months had past after the big day and we never saw the sheets so i thought my mate had forgotten or couldn 't afford them (either way i wasn't that bothered). Then one day i phoned him ,asked him "whats he up to" and he said he was on ebay. I then said could you look for U2 s 'War Is Declared',its something i ve spent years trying to get a copy of,and there it was priced at $150. He then asked me if i'd like it as a late wedding present obviously said YES ,checked with the wife and she was cool with it .He bid for it and eventually got it for alot more. I remember seeing it at a record fair in '84 for £75 which is what i was earning a week ,couldn't justify blowing a weeks pay on it, and then never saw it again untill it turned up in the post nearly 20 years later.I've only played it 3 times ,last time to burn it onto cd and i keep it in the box it was posted in . So, i've still got the wife and War is Declared so everyones a winner!
