Hawaii, April 8th - Aloha Stadium!

[Miroslava]

Miro I just got the code from my girlfriend

Good stuff... now to see if there IS a presale

 

[nurse chrissi]

i'm sorry you aren't going to Hawaii...that sucks

thank god i'm not a dancing girl...can't imagine how bad it would be in that case. but i'm honored i can be a skank on the rail, at least

I think you might have just coined a new phrase

"Rail Skank"

 

[U2Girl1978]

Just booked flight and hotel-staying at the Ohana Maile Sky Court too-best deal in town

Now all that's left is to figure out a suitable sacrifice to make to the ticket gods!


In case that fails, ETS now has an active waiting list for this show.

I just looked for the days I would go and it's not expensive!!

Now, I can't convince my boyfriend to go.

 

[ruffian]

I skank tops - what fun is it being a girl if you can't wear skanky tops

I had thought that my top I wore in STL was demure but apparently a friend who unbeknownst to me was sitting behind the stage said since I was pressed up against the rail my top turned into a dramatic boob shirt

 

[Lila64]

I just looked for the days I would go and it's not expensive!!

Now, I can't convince my boyfriend to go.

like I said before, ditch him

Oh, and will someone take me shopping for the appropriate attire for the show, at least for my age and my 'girls' Redkat, calling redkat for shopping duty

tell him you're just running out for milk...that's my advice to all women with U2-reluctant partners. Then fax him from Hawaii and tell him it was an accident

oh yes, we are skanks-by-association! not only the dancing girls evoke hatred- their non-dancing friends do as well!

yeah, it was a TOUGH decision to not go to hawaii, but i am trying to be responsible. plus, if i go to Hawaii, i want to stay for like 10 days, and go to Maui, the Big Island, etc... unfortunately, it just wasn't going to work out this time. but i'm sure that all you Hawaii peeps will have a blast- and i can't wait to see photos and hear stories!

since there's no Hawaii in my future, i'm hoping that New Orleans actually happens in order to get another U2 fix (fingers crossed!), and in the meantime plan a trip to Morocco or China for later this year...

 

[<3U2]

I want to go

I'd miss a week of school

 

[Carek1230]

^I LOVE your name! <3U2, that is so cute! Why didn't I think of that?!!!!

 

[Miringeltje]

<3 makes me think of when I used it in a thread title and the discussion that was had about it in that thread.
Let's just say I'll never look at it the same way again.

And thanks for the PM, Carek1230!
You're so sweet.

I wish I could take the cheap flights everybody else from the Bay Area is taking, but unfortunately I can't.


When I heard the rumours that tickets would go on sale on Saturday, I kinda took that as a (final) sign (or the last .....) that once again, unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be for me.

But still, I haven't given up hope entirely.
My eye will be on this thread and on tickets (plane and concert).
< Literally!! (Hahaha!! )

for the presale!!!

I hope that all of you going to Hawaii have a pre-sale code or can get one!

Very for y'all!!!

This is excellent news.

Thanks for posting, bort269.



Big announcement on the 9th.

 

[Lila64]

I hate this part! I didn't get any email from u2.com, no announcement of a show or pre-sale code. I will try on Saturday for GA tickets. I hope others who have codes or can purchase during the pre-sale can help others out (like myself, needing 2 tix). :bitingnails:

by the way, if all the codes are different, then you might want to remove your code from your post, or try & buy tickets to help others if needed (although I did see the post )

 

[nurse chrissi]

pre-sale on Tuesday!

The dark and evil thoughts that I had for u2.com are gone at least for the next 2 days

 

[Lila64]

^do you still have a pre-sale code?

<<<must sleep now

 

[Pop Artist]

The pre-sale message (read online) also says there will be a fan club line for GA at the show...

Will still take a spare code if anybody has one...

 

[kellyahern]

"Recently we sent you a unique code to

This is only if you didn't use your code for '05 right? I didn't know they sent out new codes for '06.

[U2Girl1978]

I'm not giving up hope.

 

[Pop Artist]

Will be interesting to see what the pricing is for this - I am not working on the assumption that GA is going to be $49-54 for this show. I'm thinking they might go for somewhere between $60-75, but that the overall price structure will be flatter and the max ticket price lower. Just my speculation though.

 

[kellyahern]

Thanks, I thought so. It was just odd the way they worded it .

 

[mrpoptop]

Does anyone with a presale code for Hawaii have extra tickets?
I am looking for 2...fanclub tickets for the show. Seats or GA.

 

[redkat]

I would be able to go but I wouldn't be able to take my boyfriend. I really want him to go with me. But the expenses are way too much. I'm going to have to do more research.

If you don't go because of him. You will resent him later and that would be bad for your relationship


I didn't realize another Hawaii thread had started

mr.poptop everyone here wants a pre-sale code... is there an un touched supply somewhere?

 

[Imarocker]

I have a question, do brand new members get a presale code? if so I'll just have my brother sign up & use his code.

 

[Miroslava]

Nope. They stopped issuing codes to new members a loooooooooooong time ago.

 

[trevster2k]

Hmm, where to stay, a few people are staying at the Ohana Maile Sky Court but I still am not sure where to stay, and renting a car, parking is an extra $bucks/day for the rental, ugh!

Anyone with a presale code, get max GAs or whatever, cause you know the people on Miroslava's list will be looking for them. Although, I am fairly confident that I will get a ticket anyway, it's my destiny.

 

[Imarocker]

I should have info soon about timeshares..parking is usually included(free)..if anyone is interested in sharing let me know. I have a couple from the last thread I just have to look them up.

 

[trevster2k]

I'll pay attention to your info imarocker to see what you come up with.
