Rules on sending us stuff, we do not want any photos, videos, or audio that you did not produce yourself. Do not attempt to scrape from any other U2 FAN site, we know them all and we will check them prior to posting if possible.

Sorry we learned our lesson on the Euro tour and the Boss has pressed his size 13 down on our heads.
