Nach dem ganzen Hick-Hack um den Release des Videos zu Get On Your Boots liefert nun U2.com eine offizielle Erklärung zur Verzögerung der für vergangenen Freitag geplanten und auch angekündigten Veröffentlichung. Witzigerweise erscheint diese Erklärung sehr versteckt als Forumposting.
Dort heißt es:
Dear all, You might have seen we've been removing links to the rogue copy of the 'Boots' video in the last 24 hours. It's not just U2.Com, it's being taken down from everywhere on the web. Word is that everyone was pretty fed up about an unfinished bootleg leaking out before the production team had finished their work. Apparently it's a pretty amazing video they're producing but if you saw that ruff-cut the give-away was the watermark copyright details in some of the images. Turns out there were legal issues involved - and it's being taken down from YouTube, Facebook etc etc
. As soon as the video is wrapped we'll have it on U2.Com - as early as anyone else. Honest! U2.COM
- More information soon.
