Whoo! Just got my two GAs in the Boots presale. Finally I get to use my code for something! I will see you all there! :hyper:

Agreed. I live in Manhattan and honestly, if it weren't for my U2.com emails and this forum I wouldn't have had much of an idea they were coming back. In the past 5 days I've noticed some posters put up advertising the date. They're very small, and... Well, I suppose it's kind of surprising to...

heh, aw I wish I could say yes! I was talking to my mom a few minutes ago (who's a huge fan) and she said that she's going to do the Red Zone with my brother (who has some health issues and can't do the serious queueing of regular GA). So it looks like I'll be the one taking the regular GAs...

So I assume U2.com will send out an email sometime this afternoon regarding what times our specific group presales will be? I can't find that information on TM. I'm so going to this. My friend lives outside Philly and she doesn't know it yet, but her couch will have someone sleeping on it July...

Out of curiosity, I googled capacities to answer the person who asked the size comparison between Gillette and Giants. I'm assuming these capacities are soley for football games. So.... basically add the GA to this for the shows? I assume? Gillette - Capacity: 68,756 new Giants - 78,741 (fun...

Oh cripes. In my post-presale depression, I bid on the Red Zone for NJ and am still winning. I figured I wouldn't pull any GAs, even though I just did. Oh boy. :lol: I'm not raising my bid right now, but already the minimum is starting to go up. To anyone really wanting to win, definitely...

They did. My mom was trying at the same time, she put in for 2 GAs at probably 10:01 and waited 3 minutes for nothing. Crazy. :ohmy:

I looked at the clock and I was hitting submit on my order at 10:00:26. It happened so fast, I must have just hit that one window.

HOLY EFFING HELL! For the first time EVER I've gotten 2 GA tickets in a general sale! Hell, that's the first time I've ever "officially" gotten GA tickets (that is, through Ticketmaster and not just ebay or kind fans). I think I'm about to cry. :hyper: :ohmy: I have new neighbors and when I got...

And another presale passes me by with me getting absolutely nothing. I really wonder what the point of the presale is for those of us in the "lower" sections. Out of curiousity, I went onto the Chicago and Miami presales and pulled 2 for those (let them go right away, it's too soon for me to be...

Maybe try for 2 in each section in seperate windows? I don't know if they'd let the same code in at the same time though..... AH. 4 minutes, to hell with it, just go by your gut instincts at this point! :crack:

Aw crap, I'm nervous as all hell. 10 more minutes and I'm still wishy washy whether I should use my code for all four tickets, or just use it for 2 and hope another NY show gets added with a presale..... I don't know. I don't understand this whole presale process, and I think it's a bit late now...

I saw Bruce too, I'd never been to Giants Stadium before. I was sick, so my whole experience was a bit warped and I thought it was a total mess after the show, but we got on the first train from the stadium and it was a smooth experience. I'm sure it'll be even better in the new setting, pretty...

:love: Hm.... Miami. U2. The fact that my birthday is July 9th.... I think I may be making a trip to Florida summer 2010!

Oh god, don't even mention trains and the Meadowlands. I saw Bruce's last show there and... it was a slightly terrifying experience. But you're definitely right, I highly doubt the band is taking our after show stresses into consideration when deciding not to play a venue... :lol:

I was just thinking about how there's no Gillette, and got off the phone with my dad (who is a big fan, and saw them way up at the Sept 20th show there). To be honest, I'm not surprised at all they're not playing there.... I mean, it's shocking that there's NOTHING in NE, but for anyone who was...

Most definitely there! :hyper: Only using my presale for 2 GA's (fingers crossed, of course). Holding out for those possible other dates, plus I think this one will go fast.

Hmmm.... interesting. Oh boy, I have a feeling I'm going to have a lot of people crashing at my apartment in NYC the weekend of the 19th :ohmy: I really hope they announce any of those possible extra dates before presales. The Miami date falls on my birthday quite nicely :hmm: I'm scheming...

I am DYING. The video is hilarious, and brought a bit of a tear to my eye :wink:. I saw him at one of the Boston gigs way, way back when. How old is that suit!? :ohmy:

I love this! :applaud: I feel like I'm doing it all over again. I forgot halfway through that this wasn't the FIRST time they let people in, so I was wondering where all the mad running was and why everyone was listening to security. People were doing marathon sprints around me. At 3 minutes...

Holy!!!! :drool: AMAZING PICTURES! All caps are necessary because... just... because! :up: Thank you so much for sharing!

:wave: Just messaged you a copy of it at higher res :drool: Thanks joerags! My camera is very hit or miss at concerts, and I was so pleased to see it wanted to work for me that night, when I wanted it to the most. I'm going to post some of my more spazzy shots later, heh vjacqb, that's aweful...

Thanks, trinx! I was so excited to see I got some of Bono walking out of the smoke! Everytime I saw it I'd be too distracted screaming to snap a picture, until then. :heart: I have no tips on parking, sadly. It was one of the most ridiculous things I've ever experienced. 40 bucks for what??? I...

I'd say it's definitely more of a side view. I think that goes for both sections of the RZ. I got there at about 2:45pm and was about 10th in line, but ended up right in the middle of the RZ rail (I felt too sick to run, and my brother has asthma, we're definitely not gazelles, haha). I think...

Some more... Hope everyone had a great time! :wave: Here's the link to my flickr where I'll be putting pictures. I think these are the only ones that came out well, but I'll have to look better later after my 3 hour class then massive nap. :wink: Flickr: Danielle Whalen's Photostream
