ETA: Vegas was awesome! I had $90 seats, but the Claw was right there! It was so small!!! I couldn't believe it!!!!
You were in Vegas?! How in the hell did I not know this?! Where were you sitting?

Yep!

I was on the Edge's side, right where the $90 seats started. When I look at Zu's pics, I was not too far away from where she was. I was still a lurker at that point, so I didn't go to the gathering!
*shy loser*
It was awesome! Vegas and U2 together = epic times!!!!!
Amy, I'm still bummed that you were in Vegas and didn't come to the gathering. At least we know you won't be making that mistake again. Mot and I were in the super cheapy seats - bottom row of the very last section up - nosebleed territory. I bought the cheap tix b/c really I was just going for the gathering and extending the Phx/Pasadena extravaganza. At the time, I thought "eh, I'd rather go to the party and not worry about GA for this show" But when all my friends spent the day together in the GA line I was a little sad.
But I did get to sleep off the hangover, have Taco Bell for lunch, swim in the hotel pool, and MEET BONO by not being in the GA line. Oh, AND hang out with Wild, Comet and Mot for the afternoon. So all in all, a good time.
What was my point again?
Oh yeah, and it was the origin of my somewhat infamous "I'm number I GOT A SEAT SUCKA!" quote!
It's you who said that quote? Wow that's awesome!!! I remember laughing my arse off when I first read it.
Your point was... That you had an epic time anyway maybe?
Just got back from having breakfast with the guy I like. Unfortunately my sunscreen failed me and my face rash from the sun was FAIL.
Awww NI will be devastated you forgot him
Don't tell him! Unless he'll call me up to yell at me with his accent
Yeah, after the party in Vegas, we drove by
Exactly!
Bummer about the sunscreen -but if he's a nice guy, he'll look past the rash, right?
Do you have a bad reaction to the sun? Maybe Northern CA is not the place for you.
Yeah, after the party in Vegas, we drove by the stadium to see the claw. The two guys who were running the line were there, keeping tabs on things (I hear they did a great job, btw). So we roll down the windows to say hi. They sorta complain about having to be there all night while we get to party. They ask what numbers we have. Nic, Ethan, Carlos, Vasthy and some other guy all tell him their numbers and then I said.. well, you know! The next day I saw him as I made my rounds of the line and he was like "HEY! I remember you!" and pretended to be mad at me for a sec. But then we got a pic together. Good times!
So it looks like I'm going to Pittsburgh.
I'm looking up travel info right now.
I hope so!
Yep, I have to wear sunscreen year round it's so lame. That's one of the reasons I really want to move to Ireland, haha. I followed the weather for a year or so.
So it looks like I'm going to Pittsburgh.
That was SO awesome!
Having seats for that show was definitely the best. We were able to show up not too long before the show started, pick up our tickets from will call and casually walk to our seats. The funny thing was that nobody ever checked our tickets - we just walked right in. The "security" in our section was nonexistent. I'm sure there was somebody there, but we just walked right in - anybody who didn't have a ticket could have done the same.
We'll be attending a same show?!
Maybe.
Things next year are SO up in the air for me right now that it's difficult to commit to anything for certain beyond Toronto and Montreal, but Pittsburgh certainly falls under "potentially do-able" for me.
