Are cameras allowed inside the venue?
As long as you don’t carry in a professional set up with telephoto lenses and a stocked photo bag, you should be ok with a typical digital point and shoot variety camera. It really depends upon the venue. Most have not enforced the ‘no camera’ rule.

I LOVE YOU...

:heart:

Not that it's gonna stop the 10 threads a week we get in relation to each and every one of those topics, but the effort is appreciated :hug:
 
If only we could make the subject line a fluorescent, flashing reddish color... :hmm:

Maybe I should have put something about ticket drops...
And really, if there needs to be something added, please add it - like what you can and can't take into the venues...
 
I thought of a new question or blurb of information to add to the list...

Chicago DVD information and discussion can be found in either of these two threads:
http://forum.interference.com/t143467.html
http://forum.interference.com/t143174.html

Why these threads are in the general discussion area instead of the tour area, I'm not really sure though...:hmm:



Also, here's a thread for discussing the promo for the DVD
http://forum.interference.com/t143156.html

The promo can be found on U2.com here:

(You need to be a u2.com subscriber to view the entire clip)
