    Augmented Reality?

    To me, this is the result of U2 and their team saying, “If people are going to just watch the concert through their phone anyway, we might as well make something out of it.” If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.

    Songs of Experience 36 - Now with 20% fewer acronyms

    A few brief thoughts... Landlady is the most ethereal melody Bono has ever sung. Gorgeous. Best song on the album for me. What I’d give to know what happened to the awesome guitar riff and full band outro heard in Edge’s Fender Stratocaster video. That was as good a groove as Edge has had in...

    Soe 26 - ?

    I love that they gave us a quasi-live track first... kind of makes it like we'll be hearing it for the first time again when we hear the studio release. Kind of a two for one, to me. Have listened to the song a ton, and I love it. Initially thought it was missing a screeching guitar solo after...

    SOE 25 - The Freakout

    Just got home from a long day and I'm sure this has been said by others... But who thinks that U2 takes the stage with this song on the E&I tour with the house lights up (a la Elevation tour) and the house lights go out and the stage lights shoot on when the first chorus hits: "When the lights...

    Which Songs Should Have Been Singles?

    I've always felt that U2 generally got the singles right for the most part through Zooropa, and have been hit and miss since. I always scratch my head when people question Discotheque as the first single off of Pop. The song was a huge hit in the US. The video was on heavy, heavy rotation on...

    May 26, 2017 - Dallas, TX - AT&T Stadium

    May 26, 2017 - Dallas, TX - AT&T Stadium All lots cleared by 11?? So are people in the GA line whose cars are in 11 supposed to move them off site from 11-2?? We were planning on getting there around 1. But it sounds like we won't even be able to park anywhere at 1:00.

    Credit Card AND ID for GA?

    For those who have seen the show so far... are they just swiping your credit card for GA without checking ID or are they also checking IDs? Thanks!

    May 15, 2015 - Vancouver, BC - Rogers Arena

    1) Night 1 they went on at about 8:25. Night 2 was at about 8:40. Not sure about end times. 2) The "intermission" is 5 minutes and 8 seconds. That's what the printed setlist said. It goes by fast. If you leave to go to concessions or restroom you will almost certainly not be back in time. 3)...

    GA tips (NO SETLIST SPOILERS)

    It's a tear-off print-out that is about the size of a credit card. Basically the lamest souvenir of a concert you could end up with; very minimal info. It does state the event, location, and date though.

    GA tips (NO SETLIST SPOILERS)

    The red zone is primarily across from the catwalk, up against the actual stands. It covers from mid catwalk to the main stage. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

    GA tips (NO SETLIST SPOILERS)

    1) When to line up if you want a good spot: 4:00. Seriously. At 10:00 there were around 200-250 people in line. At 2:00? About 25 more people than at 10:00. At 4:00? Maybe another 100-150 than at 2:00. Great spots on the floor were available for quite some time after the gates opened; probably...

    2015 U2 Tour - General Discussion Thread III

    Just got one GA for Boston 1. Didn't think I would get that with the $82 price point selected. I can't use the ticket because I need a seat. Is there any way to sell this ticket to someone or am I stuck with it because of the CC entry?

    2015 U2 Tour - General Discussion Thread III

    What is GA3 for Boston at $82? Is that a standard GA ticket? Are GAs CC entry only for Boston?
