    U2/Dublin tour

    I had read somewhere that there was a "U2 Dublin" tour that actually existed. Is this true? If so, does anybody know the link?

    U2 signature guitar picks

    I just saw on Ebay that a Bono signature pick (the translucent green one with the gold eye/tear drop) sold for $102 and a Edge Vertigo pick (black with red foil circles) sold for $176! I was lucky enough to get one of each of these from Dallas in Los Angeles this year. I would never sell these...

    Vertigo 05 tour wrap up (for me)

    Los Angeles 4 was my last U2 show for this tour. I've been to seven shows going back to San Diego I. 39 songs total for me over 7 shows over 8 months. I'm pretty happy with the range of songs (thanks to U2tours.com for the help). City of Blinding Lights (San Diego I) Vertigo/Stories For Boys...

    Staples Center: "No cameras of any kind permitted for this show (U2)"

    Can anybody tell me exactly what this means? I just went on to the Staples Center website and clicked on the U2 show info. This is what it said: "Guests with General Admission ("Floor GA") tickets will be directed to enter the building south of the Figueroa Street entrance, near Figueroa...

    Paul McCartney...too popular for setlist variation?

    I was just looking at the McCartney set lists from this year's tour and every single show from the first show to the current is IDENTICAL to a tee. http://www.macca-central.com/macca-concerts/index.cfm?d1=2005 OBSERVATIONS: I guess he has to do this because he is probably the most well known...

    Seeing the Rolling Stones and U2 in one week

    I'm seeing the Rolling Stones for the first time in San Diego in a couple weeks (after my two U2 shows in LA next week. I'm very appreciative that I'm seeing 2 rock legends in one week...if I could only get tickets to Paul McCartney in Anaheim then I'd complete the trifecta). I have no idea what...

    MERGED--> 3rd leg merch/swag changes? + Whats the merch look like third leg?

    3rd leg merch/swag changes? To any that have gone to 3rd leg shows (and that attended 1st leg shows)...are there any new cool t-shirts or programs or is everything pretty much the same with the exception of different cities/dates printed on the backs? I'm seeing them in L.A. for both shows in...

    Bullet circa 1987

    A lot of people are calling for dropping "Bullet" from the setlist for the 3rd leg...and I couldn't agree with them more. It's just been played to death. I put on an old U2 bootleg vinyl this morning "The Cork Connection" recorded on August 8, 1987 (ironically almost 18 years ago...didn't...

    Million Dollar Hotel in L.A....very dangerous area

    This is a little warning to any fans planning to check out the "Million Dollar Hotel"/Where The Streets Have No Name site in downtown Los Angeles...just a warning...it is very dangerous. I was there today at 2 PM on a Sunday and made the huge mistake of going down there on my own. I thought that...

    Set list variation...this is how all bands should do it no matter how big or small

    Set list variation...this is how all bands should do it no matter how big or small (provided they are experienced enough and with a large back catalogue)...and if the technical aspects of the show start to overwhelm the ability to do this...I can do without the special effects. "How does Pearl...

    No cameras of any kind allowed at Staples

    So, after bringing my digital, non-SLR, non-detachable lens camera to both San Diego shows no problem, I thought it'd be safe to bring it to the Staples center. I had tickets way up at the top, but I wanted to get some good lit up egg shots. In San Diego, I was in the egg and snapping away in...

    How the lottery worked for me tonight.

    So, we arrived at the Sports Arena and got into the GA line. At the time, it was one single line. Then, at about 4 Pmish, they split the line into two. One was the "U2.com" GA line and the other was the regular GA line. The way they could tell if you had U2.com pre-sale tickets was that it said...

    random ticket beep egg selection

    Just went down to the sports arena at lunch to check out the GA line and ask security some questions. I took some photos of the line and will try to post those when I can before I head down. Here's an interesting thing. I asked security what was the lottery policy. This is what two security...

    The Joshua Tree in San Diego last night

    The Joshua Tree tribute band played in downtown San Diego last night. At first, I was a little dubious but they did an uncanny job of capturing the U2 sound. The crowd (made up mostly of people going to the show tonight) was getting really excited, singing along to all the songs ("Original of...
