Gotta love Oakland! Let's Do This!!!
Hi guys - this is my first posting here so let me start by saying "HI!" and i look forward to meeting some of you on line in a few weeks!
Sooo, the site says that the parking lot won't open until 12Pm but i suspect we will still be planning to lineup in advance of that, no? Its not a pretty area to be hanging out across the street so it's really disappointing that they wont open the gates early.
What the collective thought here...what time do we really think we are planning on lining up? If i say 7AM, certainly 50% of us will line up at 6AM so what makes sense? I loved the commentary about how thee might not be a huge line because of so many Oakland-specific factors and while I want to agree with all of them, this is the first time U2 has appeared in the Bay area in 5 years and they are getting one show (which still frustrates me....c'mon, they have 10 days until the next show!).
I know its my first post so my credibility is in question as far as fan loyalty...I wanna step it up.
My plan is to be there bright and early (7AM) and i would be willing to help out in line policing, aiding, etc to ensure that we all have a kickass time. I'm bringing food, drink, and game and I encourage us all to do that. It'll be a long day out there and nowhere nearby to go to....so keep that in mind.
I don't live in O-Town (i live super south Bay) but I've been there enough to know that you want to be prepared when you get there.
So how can i help? C'mon Bay Folk - let's get this party started!!!!!!
Cheers everyone - looking forward to meeting ya all.

I noticed on the stadium's website that they don't open the parking lot till noon ... can anybody confirm if this is BS?
