Hey yeah! That's us.

they also have a different definition of rampant based on those springhill mining disaster rumours.

Hey yeah! That's us.

I read it and thought - wow - I didn't think he'd use all of it. I guess I will be easy to spot on Saturday.

ATTN EDGE FANS:

I suppose I'll let someone take my front row pit spot in front of The Edge for Moncton, but you have to pass a skill-testing question first (oh, how I wish that were true). Look for the big black box up inside the back of the screen of The Claw - that's my secret. I was there twice, the first time I lucked out and the second time, well, I found that box again. He will start the show over to the left a bit, but then he will move over and you want to be to the right of his pedals believe it or not, because that's where he spends 80% of the time - trust me

I think that's where I was for Montreal 1. I'm headed for the leather. After the craptastic week I've had, I need some good leather vibes.

Is that our mantra for the weekend? Do we need shirts that say that now?

I'm finally a little anxious. Just the usual travel jitters. Never done a red-eye before.

Will do my best to get to the site and have my tent erected (tee hee) in time to meet up for the gathering. If I'm not going to make the get-together, I'll text someone to let them know, so no one is waiting for me.

Getting the tent up is going to have to take precedence.

Unless I crash super hard and have to spend the night in Maine, which just means I get to sleep in the comfort of a hotel.

That time change has me a bit worried. At least I'm traveling via interstate, so hopefully I should make good time.

Also, how kind of the reporter to give me a 10-year age reduction via typo.

That's where I was Anaheim 1 and it was brilliant.

And they will raise upon their shoulders! Okay, maybe not.

Well, at least we'd get a good view from our spots, then.

[powerhour24]

People saying these satellite lots are selling out are making me nervous, I have no idea what I'm going to do to park if they do sell out .

 

[GraceRyan]

Can I be 29 in that case? 'Bono, play '30' for my 30th!'

No...wait a second.

Did you call that David guy? Also, the Casino and water park is having parking as well. You can also try Reserve your place for U2 Concert Camping

They are having same day parking and you can register online. Their lot is opening at 9am.

 

[powerhour24]

Yeah I just didn't want to fork over that much to park, pisses me off.
