Wow!
My friend and I were praying to get in to the ellipse for the 1st Anaheim show on Friday. We ate dinner at the restaurant across the street which was crammed with U2 fans. My friend met a couple who were in their early fifties and were casual fans. They were there with another younger couple. We chit -chatted for a couple of minutes and went to eat. After dinner we went back to the car and downed a few more brews.
We got to the gate at about 7:25 and were not going to get in to the ellipse-or so we thought. Once inside the Pond we went to the bar. At the bar, my friend met the same couple we met at the restaurant. Lo and behold, they were selected to go in to the ellipse and they had the coveted white wristbands.
However, and this is shocking...they wanted to stay with their friends out side the ellipse because their friends didn't get in. So my friend talked them in to selling us their wristbands and trading their specially punched tickets
for get this---$20! I could not believe our luck! In fact I was so stunned I gave her another $20 bucks.
Well needless to say, the concert was awesome. I parked my self right in front of the Edge, which is the best place to see the show in my opinion. We were close enough to see his nosehairs! There is nothing in the world like watching transfixed as the Edge solos on The Fly, the best, most complete U2 song ever by the lads!
We were just grinning ear to ear the whole night and today as well. I was going to go to the LA show but since I won't be able to duplicate the experience I think I'll just sit it out.
Good night and good luck GA ticket holders. Dreams sometimes do come true!
