You laugh now, but you won't be laughing when you and Kelly are fanning me and applying a cold compress to my head to keep me nice and cool.

Rose Bowl was $555, so not really, but it rivalled Vegas.... what was Vegas again?
Talk about a hot ticket.
Which I totally just got!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ended up getting RZ2, because the universe can't even give me Edge side for this expensive one, can it... LOL!
Going to try to work out a deal with someone in line for it though, we'll have to see!
Myself and my friend that are going (my US friend who took the charge on her credit card so this Canadian could bid) simply told our spouses that THIS is what we want for Christmas. The men in our lives gladly jumped on that train... can you say EASY TO BUY FOR? Otherwise there's no way I would have justified this.
LOL - us U2 ladies and our crazy under-the-table deals with our long-suffering Misters....

well at least we will be near our hotel, which means we can go for a quick jump in the pool to cool off!

Red Zone 1 here! So glad the auction is over, even if I did have to bid more than expected. I figure since I don't have to pay for a hotel that's my justification for going higher.
Us and our little justifications.... LOL!
I have about 10 of them...

We're going to dieeeee
It makes me a little nervous that this show sold SO quickly and I haven't got a ticket...hope I don't end up having to pay insanely for this.

no tickets yet for me either. i'm expecting some people will realise they've over reached on travel plans and i can pounce.
i'd prefer seats, but since the hotel is barely even across a road it's one of the few times i'll be cool with ga at u2, because i've been inside the stadium and it's quite pleasantly small.
worst comes to worst, hotel balcony!

Yeah, same here. I'll trust that some people will change their minds. I always do GA which is harder to find I guess, but I'm sure I will.
I'm glad the hotel is that close
Hope you don't end up watching from the balcony though

U2 always releases extra tickets a few weeks or a month before the concert.

i meant 2009, but actually......i was considering making chicago a stop just to see the place a bit more than last time. i forgot the date had changed from the 2010 date as much as it had.
...see how it pans out.

I meant to write Nashville, but then you were talking about Chicago and I'm drinking. I realized my mistake as soon as I posted. 
So pay no attention to me.

And you won't be laughing after you finally recover from the heatstroke you weren't able to avoid because there weren't enough people fanning you - Kelly won't be at Nashville.

This.
it'll be interesting, we're bringing my mom along, who hasn't seen u2 since she took me to popmart. she's not thrilled about it because she "hears them all the time (probably once or twice a day) on the radio"I meant to write Nashville, but then you were talking about Chicago and I'm drinking. I realized my mistake as soon as I posted.
i just wish it wasn't over a holiday weekend, everything i'll want to do will be ridiculously packed. but still, it's gonna take a lot to convince me not to go to a water park, especially since opry mills will still likely be closed.
Would Vanderbilt Stadium be comparable to another SEC football stadium? I've been to Auburn, Ole Miss, Miss. St, LSU, Alabama, and South Carolina. Are any comparable? Just trying to get a feel for how big (or small ) of a place we're looking at here.....

Vandy is no comparison to those stadiums, i believe it holds about half or 5/8 the capacity of venues like Alabama, or LSU. Then again thats a wild guess...

seated capacity just below 40,000.
it didn't even feel that big when i was in there. truly felt more like a 25,000 seater, tbh.

No comparison, just like Duke's stadium is tiny compared to Florida State, Virginia Tech, etc.

I think the biggest thing that contributes to the 'smaller' feeling is that there is hardly any space around the actual field. The sidelines are very narrow, and the space behind the goal posts is tiny.
I have a couple of photo's to share - just have to figure out how to post them.

It reminds me of NC State's stadium, Carter-Finely.
I wonder if that means we'll have to make a mad dash down the stairs?
