Soooo excited! I'm seeing Houston, Dallas and Norman shows - all GA. OU grad (class of '96) and just thrilled I get to see them in OU's stadium!

they did this at MSG pre-parties in October but the drawings ran from around 515 to 715 as others have said

For the Houston show I got 2 GAs around 2PM the day of the show. I got them each one at a time on the venue's website - the first GA then another one like 3 minutes later. It was PURE LUCK. I happened to be on the computer at the time and I happened to check. Weather was nice and sunny and...

Walk On UTEOTW or WGRYWH Crumbs

I personally love NYD (one of my favs) but its ok to see it rest. NYD could go with the 'anti-war' message but U2 already has plenty other songs that do that. They will never stop playing Pride on Vertigo because its central to the theme. Plus it just wouldn't be right for them not to play it...

PopMart - Dallas X 1 Elevation - Houston X 1 Vertigo - Denver 4/20 & 4/21, NYC 10/11 & 10/14, Houston 10/28

It was a great show - my first with GA tix. We didn't get there until 8ish - fully knowing we wouldn't make it into the ellipse - and ended up about 2/3 the way back in the back section. It was the earliest we could make it. Of course, we only paid $50/each for the tix so we didn't mind that...

Got 2 GAs also! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!! :rockon:

YESSSS!!!! I just landed two GAs on the Toyota Center website for tonight's show! Face value! This will be my first GA experience ever for U2.

After flying to Denver and NYC for my first 4 shows I'm hoping to make the 30 minute drive up from Clear Lake to make it to the Houston show. But the problem is its Wednesday morning and I don't have tickets yet (probably 2 of us going). I'm holding out for some last minute releases at Toyota...

My first ever U2 show was in Dallas too - PopMart (May '97 I think). Anyway, the shows on this tour have been getting better and better!

Crumbs rocks - I was thrilled Tuesday night when they played it. It should be in the permanent part of the setlist.

I wasn't complaining at all Tuesday b/c that was my first NYC show and my first one with WOWY, Still Haven't Found, and Stuck. Friday was my first VertigoX2... Have to say it was an amazing finish. But Walk On and I Will Follow...:drool: would have been incredible...

I was glad to see RTSS get the axe. I remember being in Denver and the crowd seemed to treat it like sort of a 3 Doors Down military anthem type of thing. I just don't see RTSS that way - its a real strong anti-war message IMO. To me Miss Sarajevo is a much more poignant song.

I went to the last two MSG shows - my first shows since Denver in April. I was quite surprised at the lack of change between the two shows. Still, I was very happy with the setlist overall. I was happy to hear "Still Haven't Found" and WOWY and Stuck in a Moment. Also VertigoX2 Friday night...
