Z, you were snoring earlier.
3. Does it bother some concert goers if the person in front of you has someone on their shoulders? I'm planning on taking my gf so I can convert her to a U2 fan but she's like 4'8, 4'9 almost 5 ft and I want her to get a good view from the floor depending on where we are.:
Ok I have a couple of questions
This is my 1st U2 concert and i was wondering:
I live way at the tip of texas and I'm leaving for Houston at 4 a.m and hoping to get there around 8 or 8:30 ish. i only plan on making 1 or 2 stops along the way (food, bathroom) and I was thinking
1. How early do I have to arrive at the GA line if I wanna get inside the elipse OR near the catwalk/b-stage/bridges etc.
2. Can I wait in line AND hold 3 spots for the other people accompanying me? As soon as we get to Houston I'm gonna head straight for the stadium while my friends go get some food or parking and possible find a nearby hotel or any place to stay for the night.

Any tips guys? Thnks!!!
you will be allowed to leave to for an hour or two to shower, eat, etc.
Good thing our hotel will be within walking distance.

I've lined up anywhere from 9am for one show to 4:30pm for another, and have always managed to get a good spot. I think though the fact that its stadiums this time around, people are going to be lining up WAY early.
That's soemthing I learned in Vancouver, if you're even in the first 100-150 people you will still geta front row seat weather you're inside the elispe or outside of it and going by how huge the catwalk is I'd say the first 300 people at least on the floor will get a front row seat of some kind if they choose it.for every show, I plan to be in line by 9 p.m. the night before. (earlier if I see other people).
For Chicago, I will probably be ready to go on the night of the 10th.
Where it gets tricky is concerts on back to back nights. all you can do is run to get outside as quickly as possible to get back in line.
It's important for me that on most nights, I'm in the first 10 in line.
true true true! plus its always nice to pass the time ther more people you befriend around you
Best advice yet!!!
Umbrellas are good for the sun and the rain...get one at your dollar store since they are expensive. Then if you want to toss it you won't feel bad!
I tried talking to some Dutch fans in the eclipse at the Amsterdam Arena during the Vertigo tour. They told me to "stop trying to socialise" with them, and turned their backs on me. I'll never forget that. Almost ruined my evening...
Regarding the mountains of items that folk toss just before the mad rush into the stadium... folding chairs, umbrellas, mattrasses, sleeping bags, pillows, blankets, sun loungers, bottles, bags, etc... does any of this stuff get collected and recycled or does it all end up at the local tip???
heard there was no camping out of soldier field the nights before the concert
My friend just dropped a bomb on me tonight that she probably can't go to the concert in the fall. My 2 other friends who are going don't want to wait in line that early...I plan on getting there around 3am or so. I am a 19 year old girl. They are playing at my college. Would I have a horrible experience waiting by myself?
I'm so upset. I got all my friends tickets through the presale, they all know this is the most important thing to me, I've been talking about it constantly since March, the concert is 3 days before my birthday, and I'm trying to figure out if I can wait 18 hours by myself!
Thanks for any advice. I love my U2 fans.
