I was only fifteen and had just really started listening to them . My dad was in the army and he was on a peacekeeping mission in Lebanon and sent me home a bootleg copy of achtung baby before it was even released in Ireland . It had about seven songs off the album , new years day , bloody sunday and some music off the robin hood movie soundtrack . Took me a while to realize edge was not jamming in the background as kevin costner was spraying arrows all over sherwood forest . But anyway word got around that I had a copy of achtung and my teachers were all stopping me and asking for copies and people were calling to the house begging me . I didnt know what the big deal was so I gave it a listen and once I heard wild horses and so cruel , that was it . I was F**ked . Nothing but U2 since . I sang blinding lights with the band at my wedding last year . The wife hates u2 because of me . Says they have ruined her life . Anyway in relation to the ticket Its my biggest regret but I have seen them a few times since then and am going to the states to see them on the next tour but zoo tv was my favourite tour and im gutted i misses it , in saying that I was at both slane shows and the second show was the best day of my life . That fact did not go down to well with the in-laws when i mentioned it in my wedding speech but f**k them

Or iTunes will - it will expand them a bit, but they play fine. Even if you don't want to use it for anything else, for all you Apple haters out there...

I'm asking myself this same question. I thought I have a 2 cam mix, but I've never watched the whole thing.....put that on my list of things to do this week, I guess.
