September 12, 13 - Soldier Field - Chicago PART FOUR!

[VintagePunk]

I fucking hate GA. I just do.

You don't have seats this time? If not, sorry you're stuck in all the mess.


Sicy, that sucks.

Wow. Maybe after this, other cities will organize better?

I sort of blame the U2 organization, rather than the venue. I'm sure that venues are taken by surprise when stuff like this happens, but U2 is well aware of the early line-ups. They should arrange to oversee it, perhaps hire a few extra security people to keep lines orderly or something, and to have CONSISTENT LINE RULES. It really doesn't need to turn into a clusterfuck like this every time.

Bono was just on the Mix and he stated they are trying to work in a show for Chicago next year and then he said "I wasn't supposed to say that haha"

bono.. never could keep a secret..that blabbermouth!

 

[bonoschild2009]

Apparently the line has 'just gone to hell' lol.

Um yeah... on Twitpic

Dammmmmn- they call that a line?!?!? I could just hear security saying: "Okay, mob #1 goes to this gate, and mob #2 goes to this other gate..."

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

this!

Oh, I have douchebag seats, just seeing the photo and reading about the line reminds me of how much I hate the whole thing.

And this lol.

If they come to the Bay Area I'm goin for the douchebag seats lol.

 

[VintagePunk]

douchebag seats

If shit like this happens in Toronto, I'm out of there. I'll saunter in at 8:55 and stand wherever.

Good! Serves the L.N.'s right. Lining up for 2 days is stupid. Wife & I am heading out in about 10 minutes. (Dan bailed on me!)

I think 2 things are fair. Lottery, and ROTTING in a line. No leaving, no saving, no "fan run shit"...Seeing people with wristbands around the city pisses me off. Those folks aren't deserving of shit.

 

[nicv]

Does any see any form of a line?

having fun in line | TweetPhoto

 

[daygloeyes2]

Where's the line?

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

the latest from atu2 tweet:

Major GA problems. Big safety issues upon entry.

security staff doesn't know what the fuck they are doing I'm guessing.. HUGE CLUSTERFUCK A COMIN...

Damn straight. This kind of garbage is why I'm a fan of the lottery. The sense of entitlement of some of these ass clowns who think some homemade post-it wristband made on Wednesday night will keep their spot makes me laugh.

On that note, I'm off to the show. Looking forward to just hanging near the soundboard and taking it all in...
