Oct 23rd - Las Vegas - General Discussion & Gathering Thread II

[Sicy]

I don't know what's up but I keep finding those red violation signs now in place of random recent images... my daughter is getting them too. Have you checked to see if they have got any more of yours beside that one? (That was the seating map right?)

No that was the pic of Vegas, wth? I can see it but in my pb account it says they deleted it.

 

[bonocomet]

OH right! Yeah I can't see it, I see the violation icon

(they just deleted 3 smileys I recently uploaded... and no they were not kaffy "special" smileys )

 

[Sicy]

Ok I re-uploaded it. I named it lights. I wonder if because 'strip' was in the name they thought it was x rated?

 

[bonocomet]

LOL! that would be funny. But it might explain why they deleted my super fast dancing banana.

 

[RedRocksU2]

Ok, I can't believe we have to wait another 6 months for this.

 

[bonocomet]

I already had a nightmare that I was in the wrong line all day and left my tickets and all ID and cc in San Diego and my cel didn't work. Also I had forgotten it was Mothers Day.

 

[RedRocksU2]

Yikes.
Hey C, who you going with?

 

[WildHoney]

Ok, I can't believe we have to wait another 6 months for this.

i know

 

[RedRocksU2]

I guess more money to save?


I can see it now, at the buffet;
"Table for 48 please!"

 

[WildHoney]

I can't really complain as i have 5 gigs before Vegas


Can you imagine the tip they'd expect on a table that big

Do you tip at Buffets?

 

[RedRocksU2]

Yeah, about $3 a person.

I can't wait.

 

[WildHoney]

Nor can i

I'll even hopefully get to meet the one and only Carlos

Of course there's many other Interferencers i can't wait to meet

 

[RedRocksU2]

 

[martha]

the one and only Carlos

Ahh, so THIS must be the place

Hi there, ahhh now that Ive found the right discussion area for it (lol) ...

Ill be at the Vegas show this year, at LAST! I have literally waited over 25 years for the ability to get a good ticket to their show, especially one in Vegas (I live in the Reno Tahoe area of northern Nevada). I cant wait to see what the first shows of the tour look like when the clips hit the 'net, so I know what to anticipate with this very cool 360 stage setup. Excited isnt the word for how I feel, more like ecstatic. In the last few days since I got my ticket, Ive felt like Clark Griswold in "Vacation" with the fixed manic permagrin ... "We're all gonna have so much fun we'll need plastic surgery to remove our GD smiles"

So Ill probably be in town from 10/22 to 10/25, and Ill mostly likely be staying at the Excalibur in one of their "widescreen" rooms (plus Ive heard they have especially good buffets, King Arthur style). Ill be interested in checking out any and all U2 related events and parties going on before and after the show, and so Ill keep an eye on this board and forum for updates about that. Six months to plan, and Im gonna make it extremely special.

My name is Don (add Alex on the 'net), and I hope to see you in the "other" city of blinding lights.

Hi Don,

Are you getting a lobotomy in those pics?

 

[waynetravis]

Waiting for 1st May. That's payday, so I can start paying for this trip

 

[corianderstem]

Welcome to the madness, Don-slash-Alex!

 

[WildHoney]

Hi Don

 

[beegee]

Hello, Don!

I couldn't help but think of this thread when I clicked on your links and saw that you're into rare films. Maybe you'd be interested in that discussion, maybe not.

Either way, welcome to Interference!

 

[mtnfox]

Hey, Don - nice website. It's going to keep me occupied for a while.

I hear ya. Think I'm on a bit of a downer, now the adrenaline of the ticket sales has worn off.

One more RZ auction for me, to keep me on my toes

thanks and cya soon!

Thanks folks, and Im glad you like the site.

I want to try and create some sort of street documentary while Im there (to post on YouTube when I return home). I want to get alot of great surreal night shots of the strip casinos (another reason Im gonna try to stay at the Excalibur) and maybe film some U2 events and such. Ive often called Vegas "Disneyland for Adults", and Im long overdue for a visit there even though Im in the same state technically (though for its distance from up here, it might as well be in another one). While Im down there, lll try to also visit Lake Mead and Hoover Dam and get some shots around there too. Yes, there shall be magic in the air.

Any chance that "Songs of Ascent" will be completed and hit stores before the Vegas show, or will that be their Christmas present to us after its all over for the year?

[Babydoll]

This can't come quick enough

 

[imnotpolly]

Hey Don,

Welcome Will be staying at Excalibur in a widescreen room myself. You can't beat the rates. It's going to be a loooooonnnnggggg 6 months.....

 

[BEVERLY56]

Why is Carlos a legend? I hope he can live up to all his advance publicity!

I notice there are only $30 singles remaining. Get them quick if you need one as the show will probably be sold out soon.
