This thread sounds like a script for the Banger Sisters sequel.

they don't say my name but i still feel big i'm guessing this is the latest.

yes, they said, in a footnote:

*ruffian, well-known ticketwhore and rail skank, attended 42 shows on the Vertigo tour...

ok, i'm letting go of my anger. really.

 

[ruffian]

*was interviewed in line by Aamer Haleen (sp?) on the VH1 Elevation special in '01*

*made dorky comment about spirituality of the U2 concert experience*

i feel so close to you, suddenly.

 

[Miroslava]

The Thank You signs got mentioned too!

Congrats ticket skank!

What was my indirect newspaper reference? Something about adding to the erotic push pull of the show

42-and-i-swear-if-i-get-flamed-by-someone-using-an-alter-again-i'm-gonna-go-off.

and yes, i'm deep in debt!

 

[Lila64]

I must

to your fandomness. You are so lucky!!!

 

[Miroslava]

Alters. Boo hiss.

And the comment wasnt as skankastic as I made it sound... Had to look it up

A flamenco "Fast Cars" turns the first encore into an unruly dance, magnifying the theme struck by the erotic push-pull of "With or Without You."

ok, i'm all over the "erotic push pull" ... it's skankalicious, you unruly skankette.

no, you're more the skankgrrrrrrrl type, like me cause we are on the aggressive side




ok i think i'm actually growing weary of skank derivative terminology

I got the "you're spending how much?!?!" reaction from my mother this evening. But she agreed to not tell dad .

Me too, all in moderation people... they went nuts last night

So is the stadium configuration just those two walkways into the crowd but open in the middle like it shows in the ticketmaster U2 seating chart now?

 

[Miroslava]

That's how it was in Europe.. however, there is also a crowd barrier 1/3 of the way through in the field though not all shows had it...

Dublin (No crowd barrier)

 

[Lila64]

I read somewhere that there may be as many as 14,000 GA tix - anyone think that sounds about right (or too high/low). Just wondering...

i talked with a crew member who helps build the stage today and he confirmed that it is the same stage as europe

 

[Miroslava]

Those speaker stacks
The shiny backdrop
The speaker stacks

And OMGZ!!! You talk to crew members? How skanky

 

[nurse chrissi]

Hi everyone

true story here

Just got home from work and a friend of mine showed me the new RS magazine about the u2 tour

she asked if I was the one who went to 42 shows

I told her no but I think that I might have slept in a tent with her

(it was called for, again)

chrissi!

 

[Miroslava]

And here is one with the crowd barrier

Manchester

Though access to that special area for that particular show was a mess due to local security. So dont use that as an example

I think people referred to them as "the headphones" .

Was that the one where security was selling wristbands?

If there will be 14,000 GAers and I am not on a rail spot somewhere I will for sure go postal.
