I partly disagree. I think that U2 Show is a great book. It has many excellent interviews and gives you a very good picture what efforts are put in a U2 tour.

I was actually quite surprised at the number of spelling mistakes in U2 Show. Don't they have editors?

(Actually when I see lots of those kind of mistakes, I tend to start to wonder about the quality control in general, like the truth) Nice pics though!

I got U2 Show for my birthday, and I like it a lot

How much is the U2 & I book..? Might be buying it soon... If I have enough money, that is

susanp6 · 05-09-2006, 06:57 PM

Well when it went on sale in the shops here in Britain, it cost £69.99

but i managed to get it in Waterstone's bookshop when they had 20% off everything&it was £54-ish!

Many people overseas however seem to have ordered it from some websites&it sounded as if it was maybe half the recommended price!

However, i've noticed people say that it went out of print

Oh no... I hope not..

you should try amazon.com, it's always on sale there.
if you live near a borders, sign up for the membership (it's free) and you can get discount coupons for 25% or even 30% off any regular price item.

U2&i is at my local borders. i've made three trips there, like a FEW hours each, just camping out on the comfy chairs they have their and readhing U2&i. ahahah it's soooo nice. i finished it last week. don't have enough money to buy it yet. but they only have one copy at the store, and the cover's all wrinkly and ripped. but the inside is pristine <3

I saw the U2 & I book in Dublin, but I didn't have enough money to buy it...

As I looked in the book, I was all going like, wow... Those photos.... Wow... This book!! OMG!!! It was such a great book...

I'm gonna buy it one day, really

does U2 & I get updated every tour/era?

JCOSTER · 08-13-2006, 11:26 PM

I really don't know it had just come out in the winter. It is really just a series of gorgeous pictures. maybe in the future it would be updated but its a great book.

Rochelle D · 08-16-2006, 04:51 AM

i have seen this in the shops
but i was going to wait and see if it gets updated before i buy it

because i dont have that kind of money to spare every time they bring out a updated book

I don't think it will. It tells the journey of U2 and Anton Corbijn, of those 22 years. And I believe they came full circle in those years. Anton Corbijn isn't the person to update his books. They are what they are.

It's okay. Most of the pics can be found online now though thanks to scanners and whatnot.

elevated_u2_fan · 04-17-2007, 11:36 AM

I just got it yesterday!

It's sooo big and HEAVY! I was trying to read it with it on my lap and it was cutting of the circulation to my legs!

Very nice though, lots of pictures...
