$25

The $10 was a nasty rumor.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

this is cool... looks like they are going to do something about the folks who couldn't get into the venue for the show. WTG RH for caring for us fans...

FROM DAS:

Nissan Pavilion
Due to Sunday night's torrential rain storm and consequential multiple road closures, many fans were unable to reach the Nissan Pavilion. While acknowledging a lack of control over the ensuing flooding and detours, the members of Radiohead are nevertheless disappointed regarding this turn of events. For further inquiries, ticketholders who didn't get in are urged to contact: customerservice@nissanpavilion.com

Even $25 is a pretty good deal

 

[joyfulgirl]

I'll say it again: THAT WAS THE BEST RH SHOW I HAVE EVER BEEN TOO!

I've been listening to it.

And I will own a camera like yours before August.

What time did you get in the GA line?

if you go get a camera like mine... go to Costco and get it. They had the best price. Also, invest in a bigger memory card for it. Being that it's a 12megapixel camera you need more space. I have a 2gb card and it has tons of room. It supposedly has a real good video option on it I haven't tried it yet tho.

well, for the show I went to the gates opened at 6pm and supposedly the lot opened at 4pm but people said they opened it at 3:30pm. Grr.. So there were quite a few people in front of the gates when we got there sometime after 4pm. No GA line whatsoever, just a bunch of people hoarded up in front of the gates. The venue staff did nothing to organize the crowd at all. Go as early as you can. Each venue is gonna be different so hopefully you'll have better luck than I did.

But you still got third row center!

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

But you still got third row center!

I know, just luck and the fact that my hubby can run a lot faster than me... The situation at the venue I went to was unique in that it was pure chaos, a crap shoot as far as where you ended up in the pit. Some people who were there before me weren't on the rail. As I said the staff had absolutely no organization of the crowd whatsoever. I doubt this is gonna be the case for you. Just line up early to be on the safe side..

I've actually seen something like this for all the artists I like to see whenever they tour, although the pie charts add a whole new level of ness to it.

 

[u2popmofo]

Is it sad that I think it's kinda cool?

You should see all the ridiculous (in the grand scheme of things) reports I run at work on a daily basis.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I won't deny a certain coolness to it...

 

[joyfulgirl]

hey, Wilco has pie chart-making fans, too:

I can understand the confusion.

I hope I get to hear A Wolf at the Door this summer. They're soundchecking it but haven't played it yet.

zoney's review

 

[got_edge]

$25

The $10 was a nasty rumor.

I think I confused the price tag with that of the snow globe

 

[u2popmofo]

a cover of “The Rip” off the new Portishead album

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

where the hell is zoney????

 

[joyfulgirl]

I think I confused the price tag with that of the snow globe

I never saw the snow globe and forgot to look for it. Now I want one.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

a SNOWGLOBE??????????

I want one too...

 

[jphelmet]

a cover of “The Rip” off the new Portishead album “Third

that would be great. would fit perfectly in their show, and the slow build, would be awesome live. would like to hear thom sing it too.

 

[joyfulgirl]

jp, what time did you get in the GA line?

 

[LemonMelon]

Damn, St. Louis got a better set than we did. And no rain. Airbag, Kid A, My Iron Lung, There There...WTF.

But I see Karma Police never made a return. Interesting. I wonder if that was just a one-off or if they'll be bringing it back regularly.

 

[jphelmet]

jp, what time did you get in the GA line?

didn't get there until about 15 minutes before rh went on.

when you have two little boys (2 and 7months) its hard to get out of the house at all. combine that with traffic in atlanta, and i was just glad i didn't miss any of the show.

after all that i walked right in, and moved up to about 5 people back right in front of ed.
