And the second you hear the first note of the night, you get this unbelievable adrenaline rush. You may cry

It's probably the same time everywhere but I went to the Lisbon show. They started playing at 10pm and gates opened at 5pm.

Usually gates open at 4.. but in sydney it's 5pm.
And U2 usually come on stage between 8.30 - 9.. usually about 8.45.. as long as the show finished before 12 I think they are happy.

hi Arcadion, it's good to see another perthie

isabella_bp · 02-05-2006, 05:59 PM

So when is the best time to line up for a stadium show? Or does it really matter if you're not camping out overnight.

jackbauer · 02-05-2006, 06:17 PM

I think it was around 4:15-4:30 that the gates opened in Glasgow. I think I remember standing in the stadium at 4:30, in the blistering heat (longest day of the year for sunlight) and thinking..."I've got another 4 and a half hours of this."
