I think the Tour has lost its meaning..... but it wouldn't be fair for
I'm pretty darn sure it sure hasn't lost meaning for those who had shows canceled........
of course I want them to return to *ahem*
NY, NY
again......but this is
particularly because it's been the
first time -- 2 out of 4 shows {'04, '05}-- I FINALLY
got closer and closer seeing them for all this time of 25 yrs of being a fan ,and in 23 yrs of U2 concert-going from seeing them in '83 [a 2 mins rehershal glimpse] to full-out shows from '84 onwards.
I got the equivelant of 15th row "seats"{standing} from where i ended up in the Brooklyn Veritgo gig when they let more 'general public" in at last min.
ANd by the grace of an unexpected credit increase....i was able to luck out on MSG's last minute tix drop/cancelation line with 8th row seats off of Adam's side just past the stage perpendicular , facing the elipse directly- it was about 10 feet past the elipse leaving the stage.
Another 05 show I was graced with a free tix, and I'll be paying my sib off for the next year or so for the ETS tix & pre-show package I still owe her, when she took me along with her for their last NYC show '05.
It's rather made up for alllll the half way or
more back in the arenas {like top tier & 3/4's back for ZooTV
}, or halfway up or more straight back of the stage in all the
previous u2 concerts [84 - 2001] friends and I have seen.
But i never made it into the elipse or right by the outer part of the elipse or heart, like many of my friends did.....so OF course i want THAT experience too!
BUT ........ok.....I've shown the reccent fun I've had......... I AALSO did catch the last South American concert live via the net ........so in a ways I feel the tour isn't over............JUST IN "suspended animation" !!!
...so WHY shouldn't those in Australia, NZ and Japan have their fantastic FUN , too?!
I HOPE you all get to see them in the SO-Hemi & Far East!!!
S
GOOOOOOOOOOODDD LUCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKk !!!!!!!
it's very easy for me to reawaken my "fannish concert frenzyness"!!!!!!
