Oakland #1 Ellipse Pics

Here are some pics from the first Oakland show. Luckily we made it into Ellipse, in the front row, and Bono pulled one of us up. Fantastic night! I'll post video clips soon...

Here's Irene! You go girl!

Wow, those pics are awesome, R8drgurl, really professional-looking. Did you use a flash?

I was just to the left of you guys, closer to Edge, but the security guy in front of me told me to turn off my flash -- that pretty much finished my photo safari, so I just concentrated on jumping up and down for 2 hours instead, which turned out to be a bit more fun anyway.

Irene, you were so great, your smile and enthusiasm made everyone so happy for you (watch that step!).

Hope you guys can make it up to Portland in December!

Hey akenyanbaby! It's me Nicole. I'll give you the pic of you and Bono next time we hang out. Hope you have recovered and your eyes are back to normal! Ha ha Rodney was pretty funny!

Nick, yea I wasn't going to use a flash but everyone in our section was and staff weren't saying anything so I did as well.

Yea I got to enjoy the concert! I took alot of photos the first night because I thought that there was no way we would be in front again. But then we got our same spots the second night and I could relax!

Thanks for sharing the great pictures! Irene was so cute up there. Love that she got a piggy back ride from Bono!

R8drgurl, I think my friend and I were right behind you in line. Were you in line the second night with your friend Irene and an English(?) guy?

Yeah I was with Irene and Lee (English guy) - you must have been behind us. Cool! Did you guys get into the Ellipse??

No, not this time! But we ended up front rail, center at the tip of the ellipse so I really can't complain. I think my friend got some great shots from there.

The setlist in Oakland that second night was just . I was hoping to hear Gloria at least once and I couldn't believe it when they started playing it. Then to end the show with Bad and Fast Cars. I was in Vegas and thought they wouldn't be able to top Saturday night's show, but I think they got close.

Front rail, center gave you great spot for LAPOE! Plus they seemed to use the Ellipse a bit more on the second night which was good. Yea I LOVED the second night setlist and the crowd seemed more into it as well (at least in the Ellipse they were pushing and jumping around alot more than the first night).
