I went to see The Bravery in Oxford on Friday night and they played An Cat Dubh and said afterwards that they would be supporting U2 in Manchester. I guess that'll be the 14th June cos they're playing Berlin on the 15th.

i hope your not winding me up :p that would be pretty cool
 
Anyone going to Manchester 15th???

Cos you will see a sad bastar# there on his own, and that being me! Been let down by others so having to go on my tod, so if you see me, don't mock, I'm just there for the music!:wink:
 
I'll be there!

You won't be the only sad bastar# on your own either :wink: Even sadder, its my birthday on June 15th! Oh well, our friends don't know what theyre missing out on :wink:

In fact, out of the 17 U2 shows I've seen so far, I've only managed to persuade friends to go to about 4 of the shows, the rest I've gone to on my own. The way I've always looked at it is why miss out cos you can't persuade anyone to go with you, its their loss at the end of the day.

U2 fans on the whole are good people who look out for each other, sweeping statement I suppose, but mostly true in my experience, and I usually end up meeting loads of great people at shows I've gone to on my lonesome.

So, if anyone sees any sad lonely people, yes, please take pity on us :laugh:

If i remember rightly you got your tickets through seetickets.com as i did, since my original e-mail telling me to expect my tickets today i had another one last night telling me to expect them in the 2-3 days ,god them bastards like to make you sweat.:sigh:
 
Add me to the list of those going it alone. My friends in the U.S. just don't understand. Anyways, I'll be there for Manchester #2, so perhaps we can grab a pint after the show Reggie, to toast your birthday. I'm a fellow Gemini, and just turned 39 this past Monday.
 
oh no not The Bravery :( i think the Doves would be a miles better support band, but there supporting Coldplay i believe at bolton. But each to there own

HURRAH literally just recieved my tickets 5 minutes ago. The delivery man could tell they were concert tickets from the giant smile on my face. "Are these your Coldplay tickets?" "No, U2!!!"

If you go their official web site you can listen to some tracks off their album ,they sound very similar to the killers
 
great count down!!..............i'm going on the 14th, getting so excited now as i haven't seen them since '93


:dancing: :dancing: :dancing: :dancing: :dancing: :dancing:
 
Cool another one joins in the countdown :D

Cheers for the info on the bravery website. Listened to a few songs and they seem pretty good. Not sure of the policy on link posting on here but if you search "stream the bravery" on google, the top site lets u stream tracks from the album one by one.

10 Days! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:
