Montreal 1 - Arena, not stadium but whatever...

Near the end of the European leg this summer, I went to France to spend a little time on the Cote-D'Azur. When I landed in Nice V2 was parked on the tarmac. An unexpected surprise, although it's fairly well known the some of the band have residences around Cannes. I snapped a couple shots of...

Exact same equipment for leg 3 as leg 1, but with slight changes to the livery (tighter rings on the tail, larger & reversed \\\, 'V3' now has rings around it).

So, we have Vertigo 3 (note the V3 on the front side of the fuselage) for Leg 3. Air Canada Jetz Airbus A320-211 C-FPWE Arriving in Montreal. We had Vertigo 2 (V2) for Leg 2 Untitled (Flightline) British Aerospace BAe-146-300 Vertigo 1 (V1) for Leg 1 Air Canada Jetz Airbus...

It should be considered that Bono was just playing to the crowd. He knows how to get an audience going. A little anecdote: After one performance in Montreal in February, 2003, Bon Jovi said, "see you again in July" and the crowd went ever more nuts assuming that they were being rewarded for...

haha. ahhhh. glad you had a good time. Wish I was there today, too. It's hard to describe the volume in that building. It really is above and beyond insanity. It numbs the brain. My ears are still ringing from the crowd on Saturday. :wink:

^ Hey fred, Was it louder on Saturday or today? Wish I could have made it to this one, too...but 20 pages got in my way.:|

That was us...but only one of us is the employee. Anyway, I told him to talk to the planners at AC and have them send the aircraft out of Montreal so that they are stranded and forced to play a 3rd show. :drool:

Stones are awesome, but they must be remotely-controlled at this point...:wink:

^ It was a song that he wrote I believe called "The Maker".

All I can say is that I hope people in Ontario never forget Walkerton. Apprently "common sense" is the needless manslaughter of 7 innocent people.

That's not true. The lottery is absolutely ridiculous and doesn't save anybody anything. You still have to line up early to get a good spot outside the ellipse.

^ fresh inspiration, perhaps?...Something the latest album lacks (IMO). Anyway, I doubt it. I'm relatively certain he was just playing to the crowd, and he sure did it well.

Got there at 10pm the day before the show and were already 138-141 in line. It was freezing but it made the show that much better. For the record, they gave us numbered coupons, then handed us numbered wristbands at 1am and told us to come back at 6:30. At 6:30, they had security put us in...

Delirium, insanity, madness Three words that still don’t adequately sum up the show (AND THE CROWD) in Montreal yesterday. We lined up at 10pm on Friday to in –10 C weather, hoping to be among the first in the GA line for Saturday’s show. To our amazement, we were numbers 138-141! Some...
