^I hate their shoes!!! Even Gavin Friday was wearing a pair of those clunking monstrosities in some other picture. Those kind of shoes would kill my knees and ankles.

Good choice! Trust me, if you're going GA it's WAY more worth it to go the extra miles to Chicago (if you're coming from home). It's the best venue to camp for GA, because there is a grassy area for tenting (all other places I had to tent on cement at busy street corners), there's porta-poties, and you can park on the street just feet away from your tent. We even brought a Coleman stove for making meals.
2morrow, I had seats in Cleveland, but I know bonosloveslave, Miroslava, and I think BEVERLY and Catlady spent considerable time in the GA line so they would have advice.

^He had the diagram for the H-chord. It was that close all along, but Bono was so oblivious...Good thing Edge was keeping an eagle-eye on it all day.

Grrrr i hate looking at u2 pictures and seeing those horrible horrible shoes. They look like geeks in them lol.
When bono wears em on tour they look great cos his pants cover them up well but when you see them clear as day ...

Yep, it's really the ONLY bet, unless you are friends of the band or something. Typically, the first few hundred people in the GA line get into the heart/ellipse/whatever. This tour, they imposed a random lottery and I think everyone was supposed to have a 1/8 chance. A lot of people hated the lottery or tried to cheat, but I didn't mind. I had GA 7 times and got in 3 times (2 times scanned in, 1 time was at the back of the floor b/c I came late and a security person gave us extra wristbands for the ellipse), so the odds worked in my favor. Even so, the rail outside of the heart/ellipse/whatever can be just as good of a spot!

OMG funniest thing happened....I just took my 3yr old son to kindergarten....I am wearing a jacket....walking along and it suddenly clicked - I was doing a Bono! Holding my arm across my front, hanging on to my jacket to keep it sitting straight, and not blow open as I walked along!! It's a very subconscious thing to do - I bet he doesn't even realise he's doing it most of the time!

I subconciously do the jacket thing, too! Maybe we should start a club... Having Bono-sleeves is a requirement to join! Extra points if you wear those dorky tall shoes.

I was *so* having a Bono day once...My hair was messy, I was wearing a worn out hoodie w/ Bono sleeves, topped off with my ONE wristband. My head was filled with world-changing thoughts, if that helps! My jeans and shoes were a little on the Edge side, tho.
Hehe...I love describing my outfits as U2-ish. I once had a pair of green pants that Adam *so* would have worn during Popmart.

I might have that "Bono thing" too....
I usually put one on my hands on my belly, unconsciously.... and I think that's because I want somehow to hide my tummy .... And with a jacket on my hands I do exactly the same....
maybe he's ashamed of his tummy too....

he also pinches his underchin-neckmeat, which apparently is a nervousness tell indicating hes thinking hes getting fat, i think ive seen him do both the underchin and the armshield in very close proximity, so thats a thought

^ the 'arm shield' - love that phrase!
I think a lot of the poses Bono does are strategically planned to emphasize his hotness (!) and down play whatever he's subconscious of at the moment.
(hanging in Cleveland too! Can't believe it's been almost a year since the December concert!

Yay, more NE Ohio fans. Judging by the tour discussion threads, it sounds like you peeps had way too much fun @ the Cleveland show!!! Good pics, too. I wanted to go so bad.

Hopefully not to far away fromnow you'll be able to go too!! Cleveland is a great place to see them. Although waiting outside in December wasn't fun.
We were in the ellipse -- so amazing!! - First time being so close to the group woo-hoo!!

Hi,
I've never posted before, but I wanted to add my two cents about the Bono arm thing. It seems to me that in the two performances we've seen lately, Superdome and Oprah that his movements seem unnatural and not quite Bono.

Welcome dragonfly-wolfe!
I wonder if his back is still giving trouble.....I think the "arm shield" is part of who he is now, but there could be other stuff going on physically with those performances.....guess we'll never know....
