the whole stand by me thing with that guy was so out of place for this show. when bono went over to edge at the end of ISHFWILF and whispered in his ear i started to get excited we might get something cool. then they went into stand by me. major bummer. if 2 people in the crowd knew who that guy was, i'd be surprised. if they want to bring out someone famous, fine. if they want to bring out someone local, fine. but not that guy in that spot
i wasn't all that happy with bono linking MOS to somalia either.
i don't know if some of you know this, but hearing OOC was kind of a 'thing' for me. after my camera died, i just took the show in and had a good time like a normal person. bono said the end of the tour party started here. during streets i looked at the crowd and there were still so many people there, i really started to think there would be a chance they'd play it. we were there in an hour while we got drenched!
after MOS had ended, i just kept saying "don't stand up larry. don't stand up larry. don't stand up larry" and for dallas to have the OOC-guitar at the ready. but i guess not. yeah, they were all wet too and i'm sure they just wanted to go dry off. unfortunately it was probably never in the plans rain or no rain. i just really hope they don't play it in pittsburgh cause i'll never hear the end of it.
