Yay!

to bonosbaby12....ok, please keep me posted on that. I looked into something earlier tonight & I found out that it was horrible even though it was only a few miles to the Stadium. Tampa was a breeze to get what I was looking for but this might be a bit more difficult. I will not stay in South Beach, did that in the past & I thought those Art Deco Hotels simply are not worth the money that I want to spend & Collins Ave is a Nightmare.

Hi you can call me Shannon

Yeah Tampa was a walk in the park! I had that hotel booked within an hour of buying my GA tickets lol. Will do with keeping you posted! May take awhile but pretty sure going to be able to find something decent. Would love to do the Hard Rock but that's just too pricey for us. Putting extra money towards a rental car.

siblis50 · Oct 27, 2009

Shannon where did u guys stay at in Tampa? Lorraine & I stayed at the Embassey Suites Westshore Hotel.

BonosBaby12 · Oct 27, 2009

We stayed at the Comfort Inn at Raymond James Stadium. Wanted something within walking distance. Was pleasantly surprised by how nice and clean the hotel was.

Hm.... Miami. U2. The fact that my birthday is July 9th.... I think I may be making a trip to Florida summer 2010!

holy crap. is that an accurate photo?
that seems....i dont know.
something about it just doesnt look right lol

siblis50 · Oct 28, 2009

Yes it is. I just logged onto the Ticketmaster website & that is the picture that they have displayed.

daygloeyes2 · Oct 28, 2009

GA behind the Red Zone? :ohmy:

The GA looks huge! :crack:

I am going to try my hardest to make this show. But I don't know if I can pull off Toronto and Miami. And if it comes down to it, I'm sticking with Toronto. However, I think it could work. Even if I'm living underground, eating from a can after spending the money. :wink:

Let's hope they don't make GA line up on the west side. :uhoh:

Wow happy Im not doing GA this time around. Damn the area for it is so big! :ohmy:

kellyahern · Oct 28, 2009

Did they flip the stage around like they did in Oklahoma?

eta: Forgot the concert was during baseball season, now it makes sense.

siblis50 · Oct 28, 2009

With the Florida Marlins not moving into their new stadium until 2011, yes baseball will be going on in 2010 in this stadium, that is why the set up is completely different. The GA looks twice as large as it did in Tampa, looks like I am going for a seat this time. Shannon....Lorraine & I looked at getting into the Comfort Suites when we went to Tampa, but it was sold out & we had to settle for the Embassey suites which was nice, they even had a shuttle that took us over to the stadium.

DRay9911 · Oct 29, 2009

i'm still thinking they are going to use the protective plating to cover the dirt infield so the whole field can be used.

guess we'll find out in anaheim

I'm between this and Chicago if I can travel. Would be nice if I could pull of both, but I doubt it. But I'm worried about transportation. I can't rent a car since I'm not 25 and I'd be with 3 Brits so they can't drive. And it sounds like you need a car to get anywhere. And Miami heat? :yikes:

Of course if I go, I'd forget about all of those negatives. :lol:

I'm just weighing the pros and cons of either city.

MissVelvetDress_75 · Oct 30, 2009

Just saw this on the Landshark stadium site:
Press Release MEDIA ALERT

"U2 tickets go on sale November 9th through Ticketmaster. Miami Dolphins season ticket holders will be able to purchase tickets through a private pre-sale that runs from November 3rd through November 5th. For information on becoming a Dolphins season ticket holder, please call 1-888-FINS-TIX (346-7849)."

If it helps I know Enterprise will rent to someone under 25, I think it costs more though.

Oh snap! My brother is a season-ticket holder!! Time to make amends! :lol:

Actually that looks like an awesome setup. Close to the Toronto config. Shallow general GA area = great sightlines from all parts of the floor. :up:

So if Dolphins season ticket holders get their pre-sale on November 3rd, do U2 subscribers get it the same day?

Dfit00 · Oct 30, 2009

Ticketmaster hasn't put anything on their website about the presales yet. :hmm:

ramblin rose · Oct 30, 2009

I'm thinking 3 U2.com presales will happen starting next Tuesday, two of which are Miami and NJ (both based on information regarding the venue presales) and probably one other show.

U2.com will probably post something at the last minute (as usual).

BonosBaby12 · Oct 30, 2009

Knowing U2.com we will find out about presales the day before they happen

i'd add denver to the list, since their public sale is the 6th

^ Makes sense.

Acrobatic · Oct 31, 2009

May have already been said but. . .are they mental? As if Tampa in October wasn't hot enough -- Miami in July is suicide! Enjoy, I'm heading to Denver!

Tiger Edge · Oct 31, 2009

It's not hotter than August or September.

Dfit00 · Oct 31, 2009

Come on man, it's only for 10 hours... Wouldn't you suffer that to be front row in the inner circle?
