Oct 23- What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas

[corianderstem]

I wonder how tricky it might be to try and buy pre-sale tickets to both Vancouver and Vegas on the same day. Since they're (allegedly) so close together, I can only guess that the pre-sale dates will be the same.

 

[beegee]

Try cori, try!

 

[roseundconcrete]

You should, I can vouch for Zoo Station, they're awesome!

I aim to...I have heard nothing but rave reviews about them. My friend who saw them said they were a nice group of fellows.

Peeps, this Vegas gathering might be the best ever.

In other news, I received an email a few days ago from u2.com saying this Monday(Today), there might be more word on on-sale dates, not sure if that extends to N.A. shows. and Baja posted this message earlier this morning as well...

ZOOTOPIA

I am awaiting some info so I can update you about this weeks presales. Please check back on Monday around NOON USA PACIFIC TIME (sorry but we got people all over the world so there is a bit of a time lag).

I will have more info on presales and also on some of the most FAQ's

Baja

so we will see...

 

[corianderstem]

Try cori, try!

I think I'm going to!

Does your Magic GA Van also come with stacks of books so we can sit and read all day? Bliss.

 

[beegee]

I should keep an eye on our donated books at the library and send you some good ones.

 

[corianderstem]

I'll gladly take recommendations, but holy cow, I have waaaaaay too many books at home. I've been trying to weed them out and only keep the ones I really loved.

Thanks, though!

(It was really hard to type that instead of just posting 500 of )

 

[kafrun]

Im seriously considering this

Indeed, it's going to be a blast! Are you coming to any of the T.O. shows?

Most definitely

This is turning out to be a huge party.

It's been too long, missy! Of course, I'm coming!

Whee! It has been too long See ya on the rail, girly!

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

Well, if the dates stand...we would have to all go back to LA and continue the party for two more days when they play the Rose Bowl.

Indeed! That's what we plan on doing but we'll probably get seats as we don't want to stand in line, only a couple days after Vegas.

What's so bad about the Rose Bowl?

 

[RedRocksU2]

It's huge.

 

[Sicy]

See ya on the rail, girly!

Just think;

Suite at the Bellagio with 15+ people inside.

i'm in

 

[RedRocksU2]

yeah baby!

 

[fishlips]

If the Rose Bowl sells out, it would probably be the best location in the US for filming the tour DVD. I think capacity for football is 105,000, isn't it? A sellout for a concert would put the total attendance over 110k.. maybe 120k. That would make for some spectacular crowd shots - provided the LA crowd is rowdy enough.

My wife & I will be returning for our 3rd Vegas U2 concert (Popmart & Vertigo). Sam Boyd has to be the smallest venue by far on this tour, isn't it? For Popmart, we had 2nd level, 1st row directly opposite the stage and we honestly didn't feel that far away at all. It's almost like a large arena, not a stadium. For anybody who's a 1st timer and is thinking about making the trek to Vegas.. think no more.

[RedRocksU2]

That's my point!

 

[corianderstem]

So that's the party room ... where do we all sleep?

 

[RedRocksU2]

I got dibs on half of the bed.

Then you guys can bring sleeping bags.

 

[corianderstem]

I'll take the bathtub, but only if I can steal everyone's pillows for bedding.

I can personally recommend a Panorama Suite at Planet Hollywood.

www. planethollywoodresort .com/acc_panorama_suites.php

I don't know about how many people they'd let you have, but the fountain views are great. And, there's LOTS of lounging space.

I usually stay at Bally's or my friends' house.

how would your friend feel about 20 random people showing up at their house?

I think the number might be past that already! I'm not even sure I'll make the cut! We met through U2 and went to the Vertigo opener in SD together.

If I make it to Vegas for the show, I'll probably do Bally's. If anyone books Bally's, pay the extra money for the North Tower (renovated). The old tower is just depressing.

Bally's is pretty cool. I stayed there during CES, and surprise, the AVN awards were being held there as well. stilletos and glitter everywhere.

Allow me to be a pig...

AVN Awards in Vegas

Someday...


Mark---I love campy Vegas. We were there for National Finals Rodeo one year--fringe and cowboy hats EVERYWHERE!!! Yeehaw!

 

[romi]

So that's the party room ... where do we all sleep?

watch Fionna Apple's Criminal video

 

[RedRocksU2]

Mark is actually right, Bally's is a great place to stay.
And the suites would be cheaper.

CES/AVN shows....

I attended those for 11 years in a row. Crazy times, man...crazy.

 

[paultjr]

Just got back from a weekend trip to Vegas and I kept thinking about how cool it's gonna be come October for U2! Have never met any Interference people, but when I went to the Hawaii Vertigo show, it was a blast hanging out with people in the GA line. Looking forward to that experience again.

Totally up for any kind of gathering!!

 

[tryan101]

so, somebody make an exec decision on the hotel. I'm not going for a piece of floor, but I'd consider a share room. be forewarned, bring earplugs. otherwise I'm cool solo, but wanna be near the party!
