Since this jumped Rattle and Hum in the release schedule, I'm wondering if a bigger set is in store for R&H later on? Either way I'm kind of bummed that we've now reached the point where "anniversary edition" = "standard vinyl reissue" rather than something more celebratory with bonus tracks, outtakes, etc. on CD.

Will this be remastered or “tweaked” at all?

My contact at Universal said no. But he said the same thing about All That You Can't Leave Behind, and that album actually was. I've asked him to confirm.

This has some variation from the original, extra tracks and sort of HTF but I think I am still going to pass on this. Good effort but I'm still going to pass or see how I feel about this in three months.

Nice to get actual confirmation of a remaster. Looking forward to this.

Now here's hoping Rattle & Hum gets placed back on the schedule for late spring or summer.

What does HTF stand for?

Hard to find I'm guessing.  The original vinyl has become very difficult to find.  It's priced at $200 when it does pop  up.  This should make it much more available.  The black vinyl will be kept in print.  The clear vinyl will be limited and once its sold and gone it will be gone.

HTF: hard to find.
DTF: difficult to find.

So if you say that something is DTF, should I bother asking WTF (where to find)?


Incidentally, I've been DTF around my neighbourhood for the past month.  Things have been a bit hectic.

You can find everything on discogs.

No one here will be fooled, but here's a U2 Facebook post about this release that says: ‘The future needs a big kiss…’ Remastered, with new remixes and on double vinyl. The tenth anniversary of No Line On The Horizon arrives next month. Pre-order today.'

There are not "new remixes" on this. Just a couple from the vaults.

I don't think there was any malice here. Just a lack of understanding of the past. A quick email to Aaron would have set them straight.

I've seen this on sale at Amazon ($49!!!), as well as the U2.com store and Pledge Music. Do we know if it's going to be available in stores?
