CHI2 - Section RED1, row G2, seat 47 $205. I bid with 8 minutes remaining, figuring Ticketbastard would crash and lock me out if I let it go any longer. I'm OK with that price tho. Better than the $250+ reserved seats I was offered in the General Sale, that's for sure.

(btw, that was good natured kidding... your pictures are good ones, but there are what, a gazillion photos of U2 up close?)

Nice pictures. Never seen anything like them. Ever. Are the roid guys U2 security? (end sarcasm)

I'm not going to tell anyone they can't take pictures or video... to each his own. But I do think it kills some of the energy. I think, anymore, to get this kind of "not-everyone-is-recording" experience, you have to see a passionate but as-yet unknown artist play to a crowd to who don't yet...

Brilliant! I'm So, SO glad to hear someone else say what you've (so eloquently) said. Sure, people are excited and want to capture a "special" event in their lives on camera. Perhaps it's because people are aware they're seeing an historic band, in the flesh - and they want to be able to say...

OMG, this is the funniest thread I've read in years! Guantaflope? I absolutely love this word. Guantafallopians, n. those who make it inside the Guantaflope. Other suggestions: Boot Camp The Juicer (search Phillipe Starck's juicer - I can't post a photo)

So you know her? And? What's the story of the lovely person? I don't want her Social Security number for _ sakes.. just wondering how the organization goes about peppering the audience with faces. That's no secret, it's marketing 2009 after all. Just wondering how the gig works.

Oh.. .. Oh, and Unknown Caller just isn't clicking for me thus far. I'll give it many more goes, but so far that's my impression. I've been surprised by this album. At first, I was like... meh. But it's growing on me with every listen. To me, that's the sign of a well-done album. I...

For me... .. for me the kick ass song of the album is Stand Up Comedy. I don't see much discussion about it, but it's going to make a bad ass live song. That is, if they play it live. They will play it live... right? Please?

Hey... ... geez, folks I just meant - she must know something or someone, I'm just wondering who she is and how she does it. My hat (cowboy hat?) is off to her. She's cool in my book. I mean, I'm a fan... but her - Wow. Props dude. (ette?) one: she's attractive two: she's nice (I was...

Speaking as someone involved in design.. I think U2 always makes a good point of carrying out their "album theme" graphically and visually. For those of us who are into it, U2 usually gives us some really good visuals to enjoy - so yes, I always dig into the packaging. One of my favorite...

With Who happens to be a Fordham student? Who doesn't wait in line outside the venue to get up front? If you say so... BTW, I have nothing against her, she's got a great gig whatever it is - I was just curious...

From the Chicago Vertigo DVD, Mysterious Ways Dancing-With-Bono-Girl. I always figured she was a "decorative" audience plant, as I was standing right next to her on the floor at the Chicago concert, and ... whaddya know... there she is up front at the GMA show at Fordham. If you recorded the...

I got through!! I got through!! ..... Only to be told they already had a winner. Rats! (I actually thought I *must* have dialed the wrong number, as it was actually ringing).

I think.. While I didn't hear the on-air comment, I think what the radio host meant was... are U2 influencing and shaping what's happening NEXT in music? Musical relevance (to me), means that you're finding new paths and setting new trends. You're discovering new ways of making music or...

Streets I bought JT on vinyl the day it was released, ran back to my college room, tore the cellophane off (God, that was one of my favorite things in life), and put the needle down on what was, at the time, just a new U2 record.. though the buzz was already starting. I still remember the...

GA This is exactly what I would recommend. (i.e. going way earlier than 12:00). If nobody's around, fine - you've got the right idea on picking up the bakery stuff. If they are (and they probably are), you'll figure something out between all of you. You might need to band together as fans...

GA Here's what I can say about GA procedures (especially at any venue hosting a U2 concert for the first time on this tour).... 1. Expect every "official" rule to go right out the window the morning of (or evening prior to) the event. This includes the alleged time that you may begin lining...

For me, it's no contest. Peace On Earth, everyone on acoustic.

Hey Dan! I'm the one who pulled Joy into the Ellipse!! Doug here. I would love love love... to see some of the photos. Do you think Joy will be able to send/post them? I'd happily pay processing and developing and postage if necessary that way. Also, did anybody else get a camera handed to...

I was only a few people to the left of you... just to the left of the neo-hippie-kids (the 15 or 16 year old very cool folks, btw) and was jumping and getting down the whole evening too. I also started out just behind the girl who got pulled up for Mysterious Ways, but ended up a few people to...

Let me guess, your shows are in Philly or NY/NJ?

OMG. I think I know what I'm bringing to the GA line 5/10. THANKS!!

The above is correct. I think it's a combination of cheeses actually (part provelone). More herbs, etc. than most other kinds of pizzas, not so tomato-y sauce, and pastry-thin crust. Imo's has just become the most famous joint - many places in STL offer the same style of pizza, some of them...

I'm a Chicago local and I second the Lou Malnati's recommendation... but I'm probably not the best person to ask about Chicago pizza. I much prefer the St. Louis-style thin crust and Provelle cheese creation there. >>>> GA REQUEST Anybody going solo GA on 5/10? Preferably a U2.com member...
