Subject: Re: U2 import sought

I have a copy of the boot "Strength of the Youth". It is good quality
for a boot, my biggest gripe is there are some problems with speed
fluctuation. I don't know when or where the concert was recorded, but
the songs indicate that it was recorded around the release of October.
It has versions of "I Fall Down", and "Out of Control" which are (relatively)
hard to find.  I could make a copy of this for you, do you have
anything to offer as a trade?

The song "Things to make and do" is an	instrumental (I think). I have
a tape recorded at Boston's Paradise Theater in 1981. I taped it off
the radio, so I don't have a song list. I have seen boots though that I
think are that same concert, so I am reasonably sure thats what it is.
It is a neat little tune, it follows "Electric Co". There is another
song on that tape that is unreleased (maybe on flip side of an older
single) that I think is called "Touch". It is very hard rockish, so I
think it was written during "Boy" days.

Do you have any concert tapes of the "Unforgetable Fire" tour? I have a
very poor quality boot, and am very interested in getting a hold of
something listenable. I am particularly interested in the song "Wire";
it blew me away when I saw them early in the year.

Subject:  CD's in New England

I'll be visiting friends in Fall River MA between Christmas and New Year's.
I just got a CD player and I think I may find a better selection of disks
and possibly better prices in the USA, since I don't think they've caught on
as much in Canada yet, so I'd like to do some shopping for CD's while I'm
there.  I'll be going to Fall River from Montreal through Vermont and New
Hampshire, and going home via I-90 to Buffalo, so if anybody knows of any
good CD places along the way, please tell me how to find them.
