No worries, dude... Good luck to all doing GA tomorrow- I hope everyone has a great show. And you're welcome, brkngrrl and U2Fanatic4Ever. :)

Honestly, I am just trying to be helpful to those who choose to go along with the GA plan as it currently stands. People can choose to go along with it or not-- I'm just putting the info out there that I've received from those who have actually spoken to security all day today. Again, I am...

Ok, I know you guys are going to love to take the piss out of this post, but I gotta post the updated info I've received from GAers currently at the stadium, for those who actually want the info (and don't just want to make fun of queuers!). UPDATE re: GA LINE from fans at stadium: The...

Well, I was thinking of saying "Line Nazis" instead of "line leaders", but I thought that would be a bit rude. ;) I hope everyone has a great show, regardless of whether they are doing GA or not. And I am so glad the show isn't today-- Supposed to be strong thunderstorms from 6 pm onward...

Yes, people do work-- Some take vacation days to line up, others take advantage of the new "check-in" system so they can go to work as long as they go out to the stadium and check in once a day, and then line up on Wednesday starting at 5 am for roll call. I don't necessarily agree w/ the...

For better or for worse, the "get a number and check-in" system has been used at pretty much every show on this US leg. I don't know who started it or why it was started (instead of the old get a number and stay in line system), but that's the way the line leaders for the NJ show want to run...

Ok folks, the NJ GA line has started. Here's the info I was asked to post: Line was originally in the stadium parking lot in front of the west gate to stadium, but security made them move off premises. So the people running the line are currently parked on side of the road across from the...

No worries. Hopefully the thread will turn towards the more positive aspects of the show, apart from GA drama.

On topic, the show in Chicago blew me away, one of my favorites of the tour. Crowd was loud and energetic and the band fed off of that all nite. One tree hill made me cry, tears of joy not sadness. I was hoping for Bad, but OTH was a bigger gift than I could have imagined. Loved every...

I'm not going to get into the merits of the GA system-- there have been arguments over how the line should be run going back 10 years. Clearly, the fans will never all agree on a fair line up policy. That being said, your categorization of female U2 fans as "girls/women/whores" is utterly...

Thanks Cathal. :) Will miss seeing you and everyone else in Montreal-- I am sure the shows will be great! :wink:

Thanks for the well wishes and thought provoking convo, brkngrrl and popmartijn. Sending good vibes to you both and all in Montreal. :wave:

Cryptic.... Can u please elaborate? Also, I agree that it sounds like line is being run very fairly and well for the Friday show. Current line for Saturday show, however, is entirely different story IMHO. Also, due to unforeseen personal reasons (Ill health of elderly relative), the...

:applaud: Power to the people!!! :wink: the current system benefits only those who are at the front of the line for the first show, who also want to be front of line for second show. Not cool.

:up: it will be up to those going only to the Sat show to start their own list on Friday in order to make the line up for the second show fair. For those going only to the second show, get your names on the NEW list of people only going to second show so that u won't be behind hundreds already...
