The line for NYC2 has the same BS that other NYC shows have had in the past. One individual who was in the show last night has a single digit number for tonight's show. "Rules" are for the little people a/k/a people who are not in the line starter's clique.

GA's have been readily available for every show so far, except the Rose Bowl, either here or the Facebook ticket group. I've generally had good luck on Ticketmaster during the general onsales seeking only 1 ticket. Plus GA's have dropped the day of every single show... So if you can handle going...

Exactly. And why would they be showing up at 2:00 a.m.? And why wouldn't venue security have been briefed that U2 personnel would be handling the line? And if U2 personnel were handling the line, why is this how they would handle it? And would U2 personnel really fuck over 400 people who thought...

I would love it if anyone had photos of the two chicks who claimed to be U2 employees. They should be shamed by other fans at any other show they go to. I agree that if U2 wanted to, they could work closely with venue security to develop a workable system. The best I ever saw was TDBankNorth...

I'm pretty certain this is deliberate by U2 to stick it to scalpers. Every show has tickets available the same day. Plus promoters and what not return tickets they aren't using. It's a good thing, not a bad thing...

Huge mess. Security tried to clear pit because, according to them, the pit is Red Zone. They started clearing pit from the back and called in cops because they lost control. The cops were threatening to arrest people who wouldn't leave. I guess it got resolved after about 15 minutes but people...

The band was in fine form. The crowd, on the other hand, was awful. I've never seen such a dead crowd--even the front rail looked pretty dead but maybe they are all exhausted from the Boston shows...

For all that I bitch about Ticketmaster, at least they can handle a bloody presale. These secondary sites suck.

I thought the night was fantastic--beautiful space, great sound, great performances. The highlights for me were: --Touch Me Airborne Plague: this is what the boys wanted to be back when they aspired to be a punk band--totally rocked it. --Mark and Gabriel--Salome! I couldn't believe what I was...

Dashboard Confessional was pretty bad.

The techno song is "Miss U Less, See U More" by Faithless. I haven't found the mix that U2 used.

Monterrey and both Mexico City shows. Yay!

Bingo!

I want to clarify something--I think Allison has had a thankless job--it certainly isn't one I would want. She's been excoriated for helping people out; if she wouldn't bend the rules, people bitched about her for following the rules. She was given a system that probably looked good on paper...

The reality is that some people have connections, some people are cheating and some people are getting lucky, or, more likely, some combination of those three things. If you have a group of 5 or 6 people attending a bunch of shows together, chances are one of them is going to scan, and we all...

The scanning is definitely more weighted toward the front of the line now. Back in the spring, I was at the Anaheim shows and there were maybe 10 people in the ellipse while outside the ellipse was two deep.

I talked to a security guard at the Civic Center about an hour ago (noon, EST) and he said he's working tomorrow and had been given no information whatsoever about what's going on. The woman who answered the phone earlier today said they'll let people into the building at 9:00 and that they'll...

There were 10 or 11 girls/women front and center on Sunday night. Don't know where the guys were.

I e-mailed the Fleet Center on Tuesday and they said they'd have info up that day and that the procedures would probably be the same--I e-mailed back to tell them they ran the best GA line on the tour, so hopefully they will use the same procedures...
