Hawaii, April 8th - Aloha Stadium! - Part VI

[Carmelu2fan]

I bought a footlong, and ate half. I'll have the other half for dinner, unless you want me to send it on your way, Carmel.

No thank you, I am trying to watch my figure, I need to make sure that skank top fits nice and snug

Perhaps just a sip of diet coke

I don't want to have to buy new shorts and swimsuit for this trip.

Last year I was visiting my family out of state, and realized that I forgot to pack a swimsuit. I went to Walmart to look for a cheap one, and all they had left were XXXL! I was going to skip it and just not go swimming, but it was on clearance for only 3 bucks, so I figured what the heck.

I just tied the strings real tight (there was so much extra string it was hanging down out of my suit) and hoped it would hold up. Luckily, there were no wardrobe malfunctions.

I suppose us guys might have it a little easier when it comes to stuff like that though.

 

[Thora]

Sure thing. I've been watching my weight for the last 4 months, but lately I've really been slacking. I need the madwife to get me back on track.

 

[dalfan]

Per U2Tours just under 1,000 tickets were left after 45 min. from initial onsale.

And looks like just a few higher up singles left on ticketmaster!!

Bring on 2nd show!!! Both would eventually sell out anyways!

 

[u2forlife]

I'm down 9.5lbs!!! My goal is 20 more by April. Then many more by next year. This is the year for me!!

Hey, Congratulations on your progess so far

Trying to lose weight as well. Not going so well, when you're ordering in pizza and trying to buy U2 tickets online at the same time. I'm going to be hitting that treadmill pretty hard though. Gotta get in shape for the GA sprint!

*remembers fun times in Dublin. NOT! *

 

[Miroslava]

I am back running

Will probably up my total by .1 of a mile today

That is awesome!!!! I hope you reach your goal...
I am trying to lose about 10 to 15 lbs by April

Who is one of the only dorks that actually uses her real name in here?

Me!!!

who's user name not only includes her real name but also sounds like a bad porn star name?


me


have been considering a new user name lately

 

[Thora]

It seems like a lot of us are trying to lose weight. If all goes well, we're gonna be smmmokin' hot by April!

All in good time to be sexy rail skanks.

 

[Carmelu2fan]

Oh to be a rail skank I am dreaming to big, should I set smaller goals...perhaps just a wink and a smile from Adam is all I need

Me!!!

64 is not part of my name officially, but still

and I don't think I have any weight to lose though I am enjoying my daughter's PS2 Dance Dance Revolution 2 - that's the extent of my exercise I should exercise. Bad Lila

Oh, and Carmel - I think my sneakers are Nike. Just DO IT












PS - If I were rail skank (I'm older than most of you and married), it would have to be "sophisticated", especially with a young child in tow

Lila we'll have to make our own G rated rail skank area for us older women with children in tow.

 

[skjuls]

: though I am enjoying my daughter's PS2 Dance Dance Revolution 2 -

I have that! I should probably do it. it's good exercise if you do the advanced one which are impossible for me.

I need to lose weight.

Last weight, i started running (well, walking and then jogging and then walking and then jogging).

Running after a soon to be two year has not helped me.

 

[Lila64]

(but I don't look my age, or so I'm told).
Gee, what have I done. You'll all get to Hawaii and be talking about me behind my back. I better while I can

are you kidding - I'm still on beginner. I start with the slow songs and move up to the faster ones. My little workout. I haven't tried it on workout mode yet, just freestyle...

Well it appears the Hawaii show is pratically a sellout now after 52 hours since it went on sale. Just went into the system for the first time since yesterday and could not bring up any multiple sets of tickets. The only thing that comes up now are 4th level single seats.

Based on this I'd say there is no more than 100 tickets left, all of them being singles.

Remember though, ticketmaster may release multiple sets of tickets as the concert gets closer like they do for all shows. This happens because tickets alloted to staff and other businesses are sometimes not used and its also a good way to mess with the scalpers.

I'd say there is a 75% chance for a second concert now. But, I think they should have the show on Friday April 7 instead of Sunday April 9. More people will be able to go to the show if its a Friday night as opposed to a Sunday night.

Then again, with Hawaii being one big resort place, Sunday night might be better and would not compete with other entertainment options found on a Friday night. I'm thinking about the non-fans or more casual fans with this one.

 

[Thora]

I won't be going to Hawaii.

I just found out that a friend of mine died, and she lived in Ontario. I'll be heading there on Friday for the funeral, and that takes priority right now.

It would be awesome to go to Hawaii, but I just can't afford two major plane tickets right now.

Thanks for all your help, and to those who offered me GA's. I'll still hang out in this thread because you guys are awesome, and I like chatting w/ you all, but the trip is now off for me.

Thanks.

PS: sorry to be such a downer for this thread. Continue happy thoughts!

 

[Carmelu2fan]

It took 52 hours for Hawaii to sell out... I heard it only took 14 hours for the first mexico show to sell out

Oh well I am happy for just one show. I will only have to buy one skank top ,tight jeans ,and Nike ballet slippers.

Ohh Thora I am so sorry.

 

[Carek1230]

Thora, my thoughts and sympathy with you. Of course your friend is much more important. We will all be thinking of you at this time of sadness.

 

[Thora]

Thanks You guys are awesome.

 

[Lila64]

Thora - so sorry to hear that news

 

[Thora]

Thanks Lila.

Well, Mexico has a population of 100 million, while Hawaii only has a population of 1.2 million. Honolulu has a population of 380,000.

Lila we'll have to make our own G rated rail skank area for us older women with children in tow.

Please add me to this older modest G-rated skank rail listing please. I would like to reserve my space in this. Since I'm probably the oldest, I hope we can make room for me to rest my walker against said rail.

 

[cleazer]

Thora, sorry to hear that.

 

[cleazer]

I'm thinking of the faithful at Lourdes with that smiley! How interesting.

 

[cleazer]

For all intents and purposes, this is a sellout. If/when the promoters announce a second show tomorrow, they can legitimately claim that the first one is sold out!

 

[nurse chrissi]

Thora - I'm so sorry to hear that
you are in my prayers
