One of the advantages of living in the 21st century is being able to put an U in front of the year and being reminded of U2.
U2009
It was a very good U2 year!
January
- My computer did not have internet back then and I could not leave the computer unused, so I often played Hearts against U2.
It’s something that I would love to do in real life: playing a (preferably long) card game with U2 ! Of course them playing new songs for me or even dedicating a song to me are also on that list :P - Also in January: Get On Your Boots! I loved it instantly and could not get enough of it! (I listened to it 81 times in January!) and now… it’s stuck in the first position on my last.fm… I think it’s been stuck there since March or possibly April… no wait. I remember that GOYB was the first to reach the 100 plays so it must have been February! That’s a pretty long time… :O
February
- The GOYB video
- No Line On The Horizon 2
- 30 second previews, I think I shall try better next time to wait until the full songs… but I don’t think I can resist them if they would come… I could resist the GOYB preview a day or possibly 2 days and the album previews an afternoon :P
- Leak!
March
- Box edition arrives
- ticket buying!!!
- starting a countdown until 20 July (which I discovered is incredibly far away from 14 March)
- oh, and endlessly listening to NLOTH :)
April
- I posted all my U2 dreams until then on my blog :)
Speaking of U2 dreams, I’ve had 45 U2 dreams in 2009!
That’s 60.81% of all my U2 dreams!
And 28 more than in 2008 :) - By the end of April the need to listen NLOTH every day is gone… I think I switched NLOTH for ATYCLB at the end of April…
May
- I was in a very creative mood writing a poem/song for Bono’s birthday XD “Bono Ate A Birthday Cake”
June
- U2 started touring! :D
- I discovered a very old note from me with the ”lyrics” from Newyarsday, which was very funny :P
July
- FINALLY JULY!!!! I WENT TO TWO U2 CONCERTS!!!!!!!
Augustus
- I had to survive a holiday with only a few U2 albums… You won’t believe how much I missed certain songs…
- After the holiday I got a U2 iPod!!! It’s so lovely! :)
September
- I put all my U2 dreams in a special page :)
- U2 anounces 2010 dates… without The Netherlands :(
October
- I think my House fandom really started back then.
- First House+U2 dream
November
- The Unforgettable Fire box edition! :D
- and I finally have Zoo TV on dvd…
December
- First Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie + U2 dream! (still makes me smile)
