Elevation War Vertigo Joshua Tree Pop Mart I've seen them over a span of 22 years (only one show per tour-- didnt make zooTV, Damn!), and all the shows have been great, but the Elevation tour, coming on the heels of September 11, 2001, was just extremely symbolic and meaningful. The music was...

Now the only thing is to find out the times of your favorite bands. I'll check out REM, Sting, U2 (of course), ColdPlay, Pink Floyd... maybe some others. Thanks for posting this.

I've been wanting to ask some of these questions.. I've got two GA tickets but I am NOT going to wait all day. I realize that I probably wont get into the elipse, but I will be on the floor. I've never made it on the floor in an (American) arena show. I'm kinda excited about it. But...

SInce I have stirred the proverbial hornets nest up, I have to say that this is MY OPINION. I love u2, and I think they put on great shows, but I just cant say they are the greatest live act. All of the artists I mentioned are IN MY OPINION better. I have seen u2 in four different tours...

U2 is not the greatest live act. They are quite good, and I love them, but I would disagree with the topic of this thread. They only tour every four years. Their setlists are pretty stale. Their shows are only about two hours... I could go on. As far as live: Grateful Dead, Bruce SPr...

If I was a Red Sox fan getting tix to the Boston shows with Yankees shit on the back, I'd be pissed!

I would never use TicketFast for another reason. I like my ticket stubs-- and dont like the TicketFast "paper." Thus, I would never bid on a TicketFast peice of paper.

What's the address?

There is a Drury Inn within two blocks of Savvis (I stayed there when I saw REM last fall in STL-- albiet at the fox theater). Might look into that one. There is I think a Hampton Inn also real close. There are also several about 8-10 blocks away. A youth hostel is also real near (short...

Agreed. I saw this on the murmurs website and I didnt think of any collaboration between him and u2.. Just going to shows and hanging out with U2.. Just my two cents.

I find it hilarious that a band as rich as u2 has to play a place where the only goal is to sell the show out. You've got your sellouts pretty literally everywhere and you've got the money in the bank, then go ahead and play Indy, Cincy (and KC, too) even if you dont sell out. Just let's see...

I'm sure the show I'll see in December will be fantastic, but I do agree that mixing it up would be an excellent idea. I think it'd be great for the band AND for the fans. With over 25 years of material, they should play a much more varied set. They owe to us-- and to themselves to do this...

suckas!! Great for Charlotte. Seems only natural they get this show rather than KC. Omaha and STL are too close. I'm in mid-missouri, and I would have loved to have a KC show.. going to STL, though. One show is a enough. Cant justify multiple shows when the setlists are pretty stagnant...

Hardy Har Har. Come one, herb is one of life's delicacies, but to say that you cant enjoy the Dead without being herb is ridiculous. I've heard the joke, but dont get it or agree with it. Anyway, if the herb is done discetely, I have no problem with it. I'll agree that (indoor) concerts are...

Interesting...
