What do I have in common with U2...? we will both be working at the Super Bowl!

[Swan269]

I just found out today through work that I will be editing for the Super Bowl. I will be leaving on the 26th of Jan and staying through February 4th. I will be editing like 12 hours a day for Sportscenter and NFL Countdown, but I will have an all access pass to go wherever I want around the field etc. (the edit facilities are at the Super Dome) I will finally get a chance to try to find the band and give them a copy of the Heaven and Hell video I made. I at least hope to watch the band rehearse. Does anyone know where U2 might try to go when they visit New Orleans?....I am very excited and I am glad I only have to wait about a month.

you can bet they will be hanging out on Bourbon Street

that's great news for you Swan269, congrats on getting that gig, make the most of it!

How can I get a hold of Superbowl tickets?
No chance in hell I bet.

 

[SicilianGoddess]

Wow that's really cool!

Good luck meeting the band.

 

[Discoteque]

can you get any "boys on Bourbon street" behind the scenes stuff for us?

 

[Swan269]

I will certainly report anything that I see or hear while I am there!

You'll one very lucky person. We expect updates from now and then.

 

[Swan269]

Cool job Swan! Do you need a 'personal assistnat' to carry your bags? lol..go for it! I will be waiting to see your reports on it all! and hopefully pics..peace

 

[Achtung_Bebe]

wow Swan! That's really great news... I personally LOVE your Heaven/Hell video, and it's about time the boys get to see it. My guess is that your chances of meeting the band are good considering you have an all-access pass. Hey you may even get to meet O-Town

The get-together is in the works, I will definately be there, hopefully there are others who decide they would like to come along. So when a meeting place is decided on you will definately know! We'll want updates on your progress!

Good Luck Swan!
