Sorry - i'll chang the post to Blue crack over at u2.com.

Aww, don't have to do that.

Hi Tony! You should come by more often

We are looking forward to meeting you and all the other fans!

 

[corianderstem]

Ha - I just didn't know how they referred to us/this place on the other site. Maybe just jerking the thumb over the shoulder, rolling the eyes and saying "those guys."

 

[RedRocksU2]

Post party suite at Maryann's?????

I have been in contact with Nine Fine!! Happy hour is 2-6pm. I'm trying to work with the sales manager to extend the specials. It's worth a try!!
See you at the Nine!!

You'll have to ask my new roomie Besides I thought it was in your room? Maybe we should ask for adjoining rooms and open it up.

 

[FitzChivalry]

Let's face it: our whole FLOOR is just going to be one giant party 'til the cops arrive.

 

[nicv]

^

We may need a bouncer

and a bartender

 

[nicv]

^ and what time are us GA'ers getting in line?

 

[FitzChivalry]

I'm already too pre-hungover to think about waking up early right now.

 

[nicv]

^lol me too

maybe I'll be happy with hanging in the back.

 

[FitzChivalry]

I don't know how early. These thing vary so widely. For Depeche Mode at The Joint at The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, we got in line at 4:00 a.m. and rotated people in our group so some of us were in line and some of us went back to the room to nap for a bit, etc., and we got on the rail on Fletch's side.

But for Vertigo tour at Staples Center, I got in line around 3:00 p.m. and I still made it just 2 people back from the rail, right at the tip of the ellipse.

So I really have no idea. We probably need to see how the prior 360 N.A. tour dates pan out and figure it out from there.

 

[nicv]

^ Great info. Thanks for sharing. I can tell you right now, for myself, I seriously doubt I will doing 4am or 5am or 6am.

drinking + crack of dawn =

but then again, who knows, this blue crack may make me do just about anything


edit - ^except wear crocs like Carlos.

WOW! Those are some big feet!

 

[DRay9911]

RedRocksU2

the socks are a nice touch

-dan

 

[RedRocksU2]

They look like Mickey Mouse shoes.
lol

 

[RedRocksU2]

Maybe we should ask for adjoining rooms and open it up.

This is a good idea.

 

[BEVERLY56]

Anyone have ideas how to get from the strip to the concert and back? Early on, there was some talk about chartering a bus. What do you think the cab fare would be each way? I suppose getting a cab in Vegas at 1Am would be relatively easy.

 

[kafrun]

POLE BUS!
