Hey, you Atlanta/North Georgia folk...

[Dulce de Leche]

Yes I am there.

None of the programs I have done have been through UGA though; I didn't go here for undergrad and even my program in the spring is through a different school.

So while I can't really comment on whether their programs are good or not, I will say that they have a TON of them. Just checked and they have programs to 33 different countries and some that go to more than one.

Check out http://www.uga.edu/oie/saprograms.htm if you're interested.



I would highly recommend study abroad in general. It's great to see the world and get credit at the same time, not to mention experience more of a place since you're there for a longer period of time.

hello

Hey, it's only 22 days 'til show #1.
Are y'all making your plans yet? Should we raise the fan gathering thread or make a thread in the Tour Dates section for those Atlantans who are unaware of this thread and don't want to read 300 posts?

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I have made zero plans outside of going to the show.

 

[Dulce de Leche]

Not a bad idea for another thread maybe.



It was nice seeing you tonight Barbara!

My ear is hurting now though.

 

[U2dork]

Yes, it was fun. I didn't realize that we were in the restaurant for 2 hours. Time flies when you're talking about Bono's hair!

And the pain sounds like it's definitely an inner ear pressure thing and probably not concert related hearing loss. Get thee to the health center!

 

[Dulce de Leche]

Time flies when you're talking about Bono's hair!

Ain't that the truth.



Yes, I'm hopefully making an appointment tomorrow. As much as the pain isn't fun, I am a little relieved because that means it's *something* and they won't just say "Nope, can't help you." (I hope!)

Same here. Should probably at least obtain lodging soon.

thanks for the info at the top of the page lauren.

so far, i've got a hot dinner date with my mom planned for the night of the (11/19) show.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I am taking my 13 year old nephew to the show on Friday.

 

[misfit toys]

Which shows are y'all going to? I'm going to try to get a ticket if I don't have to work. Ticketmaster shut me out before.

 

[Dulce de Leche]

both nights

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

both nights for me.

 

[Dulce de Leche]

 

[VertigoGal]

Saturday night only for me

god i'm so excited

 

[misfit toys]

I want to be excited, but I need tickets!

 

[Dulce de Leche]

Keep checking here and on ticketmaster. You'll get something!

 

[misfit toys]

Okay, I have to work Friday until 5pm. I can't go Saturday. What time are is everyone going down Friday night? I imagine if you got GA, that you will be going much earlier than 5.

Is there any way we can get together?

 

[Dulce de Leche]

I will be there from early Friday morning onward for GA. So unless people want to visit me in line....

I know hippy doesn't have GA and she will be hanging around Friday and Saturday and is looking for things to do...

 

[VertigoGal]

[misfit toys]

Woooooo!




Does anyone know what time U2 takes the stage? And how much are programs? I looked around the concert forum, but it's not easy to find that kind of information.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

no clue.

 

[neutral]

I think the programs are $14, maybe more.

 

[misfit toys]

The programs are $15, and I got one!!

 

[Dulce de Leche]

Alright guys, this sucks.

Now we need a post U2 support group.

I have wasted so much time on here and looking at pics/etc. the past few days it is UNREAL.

 

[VertigoGal]

seriously. and WHERE is the MP3 of the concert?!?! lol

going insane, literally. and my pictures didn't turn out, i think i might die. i can look at other people's pics but its just not the same...

and to think they wont be back for like 4 yrs. i'm going insane. it was only my first concert, i neeeeed more.

post-concert depression SUCKS.

 

[misfit toys]

Oh, I know!

Even my husband, who was at first was only along for the ride, wants to go see another one.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

I must be the only one not going through withdrawal. Well if you all want to see my photos, they are in my journal.

 

[misfit toys]

Cool pics!

 

[VertigoGal]
