Well, you will be happy to know that I first saw U2 in 1985 on the Unforgettable Fire Tour and IMO the shows I saw the last two nights were (along with the post-9/11 shows on the Elevation Tour)the best shows I've seen U2 play since ZooTV. I think the staging of the show is brilliant and they sound great.

Our potential periscoper has a great view too. May he be strong of arm and possess endless battery power.

oh fuck that! they can't tease us like that! what's the point of a radio station putting on a show if they don't broadcast it? maybe it'll get an official release.

We have a periscope link. The guy seems like a douche, but he's there!!! I hope he doesn't wear out his battery with this pre show!

This.

I was the second person to arrive at Dodger Stadium. A worker at the stadium won who happened to be a fan so it was clearly his lucky day. Tears streamed down my face as I couldn't believe how close I came to a final shot at gaining entrance.

I did receive a consolation prize: seats to the 6/3 show at the forum which I didn't have. So all in all it just wasn't in the cards for me but I don't have any regrets. I did everything I possibly could've done. It still hurts but I'll get over it. Just not tonight

If 11oclock tick tock is played I'd be so happy if it snuck it's way into one of the upcoming forum shows!

Now I'm sure you're taking the piss! Much as I adore 11OTT, much as I love that it was resurrected at Irving Plaza, and as much as I will completely fucking flip if it is played tonight, the 2000-01 versions of 11OTT are clearly the weakest live performances of the song ever.

Partly because they evidently re-learned the song straight from the studio version rather than doing it in its standard live form with a second solo or the "call out your name" verse, and partly because it's slower and Bono's voice isn't what it used to be.

I love the Under a Blood Red Sky version of the song. I'm sure there are better performances of 11 O'Clock Tick Tock, but that one is so good.
