Also, met another Interferencer, who wouldn't say her name - pretty funny I thought, but she shared a story about how Bono kissed her in Seattle, and she got sick afterwards.

Original of the Species - Brilliant, Bono says "its the best song off of the record"

This comment deserves a thread of its own
Guess we know what the final single will be now?
sambusik said:We were behind the ellipse on Edge's side and things were great until a group of about eight 6 foot-somethings, obviously hopped up on some serious drugs and claiming to be looking for their friends, barged through the crowd and stood in front of everyone blocking any kind of view for those of us who had been standing in that area for quite a while. Then their 'wanna-be hippie' and nasty groping with their girlfriends started and it was all elbows and lit cigarettes inches from the faces of everyone standing around them. It was just so frustrating because they really ruined the mood and were really, really aggravating everyone around them. Countless times, people standing around them asked them (asked them nicely) to just watch it because they were getting a little too crazy.
cmb737 said:The ellipse continues to be lame (crowd wise...) but we still had the time of our lives rocking out regardless.
GREAT SHOW, GREAT CITY...bad ellipse...will be GREAT DVD.
Thanks Chicago...we love you.

Sambusik, you must have been standing right next to me or in my area. I was the black girl wearing glasses, with my U2 shirt on. Did we meet? I thought I met everyone who was around me. We ended up moving further to the stage instead of going backwards.
I know what you mean. We were up in the nosebleeds, 5 rows from the top & a little behind the stage.sambusik said:After last night I'm pretty much completely turned off from wasting any more time or money on concerts just because of the idiot people who ruin it!

So when I saw him I went back and said he was with me and grabbed one of his beers he had for his friend and pulled him through the two guys who were trying to be the enforcers of the floor, eventually the one guy who wouldn't let him thru got booted about 5 minutes after that. KARMA. He was just a complete little jackass.
Around New Year's Day, a guy behind us fell (pushed?) the guy next to me so hard that he fell forward & got his foot caught in the seat in front of him. He hurt his ankle, and a fight was SO about to ensue. I was trying to get them to chill, but boys are stupid when testosterone & beer mix, it seems. The guy next to me ended up sitting in my seat cuz I had moved in front of the hubby to get away from the potentially impending fight. When he sat down, I saw his girlfriend talking to him & him crying, so I asked her if she wanted me to get a medic or something. She asked her b'f & he just wanted some ice for his ankle.

At the end of the show when Bono jumped into the crowd
From my very far away view, it looked like he jumped kinda on the edge of the baricade that was outside the ellipse.biff said:Did he really? This is the only report that says that he did this.
Can anyone else confirm this? It would be very cool if Bono was behaving that dangerously on this tour, but I haven't gotten that impression. Please, if he did jump into the crowd, give us the details!
