I'm getting more and more excited though - this is my boyfriend and I's first road trip together. he doesn't know U2 that well, but when I random brought this up and asked if he would come he agreed. Now we are frantically throwing food we can find together so we don't have to spend any more money on the trip. Oh poor college life :)
 
Enjoy the show, all. Any word on ticket sales? What sort of crowd is expecting tonight? I saw an article that mentioned a 50,000 - 55,000 person crowd, which does sound encouraging....what is capacity at that stadium?
 
....what is capacity at that stadium?

Supposedly 60,000.

Is there any news on a sound check or anything? I haven't gone back in this thread yet, but the last I heard was "stand-ins" were doing the sound check Friday. :scratch:
 
60,000 is around capacity, they put in bleachers a few years ago and enclosed the lower bowl, used to be a lawn.

Of course, when you add the people standing on the field the capacity will be higher. I heard 60,000 for ticket sales, when I went this morning for will call there were a couple of people still walking up for GA tickets I imagine.

Weather looks great so far!

Holy Cow Batman!! Its time to go!
