I think it'll be hard to get GA tickets, cause the seats are very expensive this time.

Hopefully you'll be able to get us GA tickets for Gelsenkirchen!

Thanks for the tips for traveling around Berlin.

I'll be trying for tickets as soon as the Breathe presale starts in an hours time!

If everything goes to plan, I would love to meet up with you in Berlin!

Hi!

I spend most of my time lurking, and sometimes writing, in FYM.

How long are you planning on staying in Berlin? I'm sure we could meet up somewhere beforehand, like Friday night, and explore some bars or something.

Oh, and one other thing you might want to do when in Berlin: Go to the Hansa Studios where U2 recorded Achtung Baby. It's close to Potsdamer Platz, the other centre of Berlin besides Alexanderplatz.

last unicorn · 03-25-2009, 07:58 AM

Oh, Berlin will be a big party, we could all meet up

We have tickets already, Leif. I hope you find a way to get yourself a ticket. I think going to an outlet is safer than the internet, online sale is for people with very strong nerves

Friday night sounds great! If I get the flight I want via Lufthansa I'll be in Berlin by late Friday afternoon! I plan on staying either until Monday or Tuesday depending on the kind of flights I can buy, which I'll be doing this Friday. And yes I'd love to visit Hansa studios!!

Oh yeah, lets all meet up for a pre-concert party, it'll be great!

I've already booked my flight, I'll be in Berlin from Friday to Monday. Next: Hotel room.

hcbiggs2002 · 03-25-2009, 12:57 PM

Same here, I just booked my flight too! I know I said I would wait until Friday but I was just checking the flights and found the exact one I wanted from Finnair, for a reasonable price, leaving from Kuopio on Friday @14:35 and arriving in Berlin @ 18:25, just in time to go out partying!

I'll have to try on print out my e-ticket on the college printers!!

I'll have to wait to see what my friend Hanna wants to do before booking a hotel.

passanis · 03-26-2009, 12:33 AM

Does anyone know if GA for Berlin are still available through the presale?

Tell me which hotel you've booked, maybe I know it and we can meet up somewhere in between our hotels.

Well, I'm hoping to book into the hotel you recogmended, but like I said, I'm waiting to see what Hanna will be doing coz she doesn't yet know how many days off work she can take, but I told her that she needs to tell me soon, preferably by this weekend, to ensure we get a decent reasonably priced hotel room.

Oh and good news, just checked my bank account and the exact amount of the price of the tickets has been charged to my credit card, so that's definite conformation that the purchase was suggestful, if there were any lingering doubts!

last unicorn · 03-26-2009, 08:22 AM

Very good, Helen!

Eventim should dispatch the tickets soon.

Don't worry, I'm still waiting for my Milan tickets. They have been paid for but not shipped yet, yes that's the Italy I know

Good luck with the hotel! I will try to get a room next week, should be early enough. I want all the ticket stuff to be over first.

cathalmc · 03-26-2009, 01:18 PM

I've got a Berlin room booked at the wonderfully named Three Little Pigs Hostel on Stresemanstraße 66. I've no idea where that is though!

Eastfly · 03-26-2009, 02:53 PM

and tickets for berlin too.

U2: 360� Tour 2009 - Verbindliche Reservierung - Tickets & Konzertkarten - Eventim

the same like Gelsenkirchen, limited for 2 tickets per show.

inztantkarma · 03-26-2009, 05:20 PM

Does this mean the tickets are on sale now as part of the ticket alert thing through ticketmaster?

I'm confused as this is before the general sale??? HELP!!

last unicorn · 03-26-2009, 05:28 PM

^ Yes, it's a pre-reservation, but it's a regular order. I've just booked a ticket for Gelsenkirchen. Watch the site, GA tickets are released in small batches. It's quite easy to get them.

inztantkarma · 03-26-2009, 05:34 PM

!!!BRILLIANT!!!!!!

thanks for the help..... So glad I checked...

inztantkarma · 03-26-2009, 05:43 PM

Does anyone know when side of the stadium the stage will be on?? If you look at the plan on the tour page here it shows the stage on the left as you look at it but it is hard to tell if this is the same layout as the stadium plan on the ticket web site...

In other words will the stage be on the left or right do we think when your look at this

Olympiastadion Berlin

Vincent Vega · 03-26-2009, 05:52 PM

Tickets!!!! I'Ve got tickets!!!! WooOoooT!! GA!

I'm sooo happy.

80€ though, 70€ for the ticket, 9.90€ for the shipping. But nevermind, it's fucking awesome GA tickets.

last unicorn · 03-26-2009, 05:56 PM

Great, Leif

I pay 15 euro for shipping, though.

But it's all good, I've got GA for both German shows.
