Jesse you rock

MEXICO CITY people!!! Wooo-hooo! But what can I say... I *knew* it was official when in Boston Monday night I had a sign for the boys "See you in Mexico City!" and Larry smiled in acknowledgement, Adam smiled and winked and nodded... and well Bono gave me this reaction like "oh yeah? you already know!".

Where is Montery?

This should be the only chance that Americans get to see the Stadium show.(Excluding the possible Hawaii date)

Hopefully the Texans, without criminal records, can feel better about not having enough shows near them.
