Hey guys. I have been visiting the blue crack for...well..a lot longer than I thought I would. I was wondering if I could use this incredible network for a bit of help as I am looking at reworking my business model.
I am a freelance photographer that does live music and portraits and the...

I personally love the Itunes experience and have expanded my music collection because of it. Streaming broadcasts...

was in the ellipse last night (5/10) taking loads of digital pictures.
Which is surprising since he was actually playing in Kansas City. Moral of the story? Don't always ask for autographs from people who claim to be people they are not. Certainly don't give a fresh beer to them and try...
Well,
Thanks to all those that helped. Many on here were of giant consequence. I am on my way to pick up my wife from work. She thinks we are going to a minor league baseball game tonight. Are we? Oh no. Where are we going you ask? Well, after I accidentally get lost and mad and pull...
Well, after hearing all kinds of random quotes in all kinds of random cities about the U2 tour, I thought it would be cool to tell you all my two favorite that I think would look great on a tshirt.
Here they are:
Tshirt Front: WWACD?
Tshirt Back: What Would Adam Clayton Do?
Tshirt Front...
Hahaha...extreme headline I know, but please take all of the following with a grain of salt.
I have met several times the father of the boy brought up on stage at both Denver shows (from the exact same spot on the outside rail) and we know many of the same people in the music industry as we...

Take this all with a grain of salt, as I saw them in the barn that is San Diego, but I feel like the Vertigo tour is signifigantly louder than the Elevation tour. I am curious if anyone felt the same way. I obviously would love to bring my SPL meter into a show, but I don't think security...
Please help my wife, she is insisiting on taking the camera after not taking it for the openers in San Diego. Advice that would be welcomed would be relevant to most consumer digital 4 or so megapixel cameras. Mods, please feel free to move if this is the wrong spot.
Thanks.

Not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but if you go to the timeline on U2.com, apparently Joshua Tree never happened.
Revisionist history at its worst. :wink:

U2's latest tour, which kicks off in California next weekend, should be as visually strong as ever. Deirdre Mulrooney meets artist Catherine Owens, who creates dramatic backdrops for their shows...
Just curious how many on here were like my wife and I who only go to U2 shows if we get GA's.
We are blessed to have GA's for 6 shows coming up and might go to 2 more in addition to planning on going to Australia with or without U2 in the new year.
I hear lots of stories about nosebleeds, I...
Please see San Diego Sports Arena for the following info:

Well for all those that should be eating crow about U2 underplaying NYC, I hope you enjoy your 8 shows there this tour. Not counting the 17 others shows within an easy 4-5 hours of driving.
MSG has more shows than any other country, after the US.
All you bandwagoning U2 haters, take...
Please create a tickets discussion section of the forum please. Some of us are tired of sifting through post after post of pissed off or elated fans that only want to talk about their tickets or lack there of.
Not that we don't have sympathy, many of us are feeling the same emotions...
But...
Here is a snippet from an Entertainment Editorial about the upcoming U2 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame from MSNBC:
Hall of Famers or just a bunch of Pretenders?
Questionable calls, and omissions, among this year’s class of inductees.
