    5/12 – Vancouver, BC – BC Place

    If you bought 4 tickets then should be!

    5/12 – Vancouver, BC – BC Place

    Yes. I only had one ticket. So if you have multiple tickets I don't know if they'll give you multiple cards worth 50 each, or the full price all in one card.

    5/12 – Vancouver, BC – BC Place

    I actually got mine a few weeks ago. I heard they didn't use CC scanners for Metallica. They must be too scared to try again. Funny they never did admit it was their fault even though other venues have use cc entry with little issue. At least I got $50 back.

    U Talkin' U2 To Me podcast by Adam Scott & Scott Aukerman

    Scott''s opinions are absolutely awful 90% of the time. For instance, saying how bad Dirty Day is on Zootv. What? Adam on the other hand is pretty much spot on most of the time, at least in my opinion.

    what is this clip at the end of Running to Stand Still?

    Original poster is right Zootv was the best ever performance. No argument. And segueing into Streets.....f*ck... As far as I'm concerned their greatest on stage moment ever. Nothing will ever come close. Recent tour was a disappointment though. It's one of my all time favs of their and sadly...

    U Talkin' U2 To Me podcast by Adam Scott & Scott Aukerman

    I've only listened to a few and they definitely ramble way too much. The UF episode had about 15 mins of U2 material with a bunch of other crap. And I dont think they know that much about U2 than they claim to, or they're playing down their knowledge dramatically. They could be adding a lot more...

    How many times have you seen U2 live?

    Huh, thought I already posted in here. 5 total. Popmart, Elevation, 360 x2, JT 2017. This thread should be how far have you travelled to see U2. I'm so jealous of the people that live in big centres and can easily see the band every tour. I've had to travel a total of 17,000 kms if you count...

    Attendance at all PopMart shows

    I was at Vancouver and the 30,000 is probably a good estimate. It was no where near full. Shame because it was a great tour imo. Are the numbers for tickets sold on this current tour available anywhere? Also, what does the average GA hold at a stadium? 6K?

    5/12 – Vancouver, BC – BC Place

    Got a call from bc place and it sounds like they are working with ticketmaster and might issue refunds. Not sure if this is for all ticket purchasers or the ones who complained but it's worth a shot emailing them if you haven't already.

    What's on your "obscure" U2 songs playlist?

    The Salome remix. At age 12 it was the first dance/electronic/remix type song I'd ever heard. Still adore it. Bono's vocals in that are possibly the best they've ever been, save for Mysterious Ways live during Zootv.

    WOWY Stay and MOS

    I can't believe WOWY or Stay were ever written with audience participation in mind. Stay doesn't exactly evoke arena crowds. It just happened to turn out that way. However with Moment it's very possible.

    Favorite/Least Favorite Album Covers

    Not going to spoil the tour for you if you haven't seen it yet, but U2 supposedly flash a pic of the next album cover at the end of the night. Very cool and very reminiscent of War. Excuse me if this has already been debunked elsewhere on the message board.

    Favorite/Least Favorite Album Covers

    Same thing happened to me when I bought the vinyl. Lol Wtf is this shit album cover I've been associating with the album for for so long. The true photo is so much better. Still love War and AB the best. Not to dredge up the pedophilea thing (but I'm going to) let's not forget that Boy was...

    Album covers - best and worst

    Surprised no one has made the comment, would a naked woman have been as offensive? Best: Boy or AB Worst: October or HTDAAB

    WOWY Stay and MOS

    (uh uh) OOH OOH oh oh. Same note and melody pattern, save for minor differences of course. wowy is just missing the first two lower notes. If you listen to all three one after the other it's ridiculously similar.

    WOWY Stay and MOS

    ... have almost the same ending refrain. This has driven me insane for years. Of course, live crowds love to sing along to those parts. Is Bono lazy or just using something that clearly has an impact. It IS a very euphoric refrain.

    My Goal for the Joshua Tree Tour

    I ALWAYS go spoiler free, for every band I see. I don't understand people who watch every show etc before they see them. That would completely ruin it for me.

    This is NOT what we wanted

    Wow, a lot of negativity in this thread. I will say the encore was weak, but otherwise tremendous show, SBS included. While I admit it did feel a tad slapped together, our expectations when seeing U2 have become ridiculously high. From what I can tell, first timers loved it, while those of us...

    5/12 – Vancouver, BC – BC Place

    So here’s my review for what it’s worth. (haven't been on here in years and lost my old account!) Totally agree with U2brothr on the bands energy etc. But I think that the lineup fiasco took a toll on the band AND the crowd, which feed off each other! The band was clearly sweating backstage. My...

    5/12 – Vancouver, BC – BC Place

    Ha! No kidding. I felt so let down at the end of the night after the lineup chaos and lackluster performance. But the more I watch the videos on YouTube, I realize it was a damn good show (encore aaide). I'm enjoying the videos more than the actual show and I think that's what really upsets me...

    5/12 – Vancouver, BC – BC Place

    I sent a letter to bc place and ticketmaster and I hope many people do! The more that do, the better our chances of being reimbursed. I'll post my full experience later! It's good to vent haha!!
