hey guys, i'm going to Monday night's show. I havent been to Gillette in a few years, so I was just wondering if anyone is familiar with the tailgating rules? Are charcoal grills allowed? Is there a certain section of the parking lot that you need to use? Will tailgating be allowed after the show? I would appreciate any info on this. Perhaps anyone who goes to tonight's show would have a better idea. Thanks guys!
Did you guys see the guy in the cow costume in ga ???
I remember him from elevation tour!

Apparently Zoney and schmeg were right next to cow man.
That guy as gotten tone of mileage out of the cow suit, you can make him out on the time lapse thing on the Boston Elevation DVD...I've seen him get on stage twice at Great Tweeter Comcats Woods, once with Rob Zombie at OZZfest and last year with Pearl Jam...

20 minutes ago:
U2log: U2 just arrived to the stadium. Bono and Edge stopped to say hi to me and a handful of friends. Larry and Adam waved. I'm happy.

Can someone explain to me the traffic lane scenario when leaving the stadium?!
Since I got there at 2pm yesterday, I automatically parked where they put me since none of the other lots were open. This put me on the north side of the stadium. Anyway, the predicament I found myself in was...there was a ton of traffic going NORTH & that is the ONLY way I could go bc they were only allowing traffic to turn right from the lot I was in.
Id like to know if those who parked on the south side of the stadium, was traffic directed back south to 495? Or did you have to go all the way up 1N to meet 95 as well? I have a feeling they split the traffic somewhere. I dont understand why the only lot open at 2pm seemed to only allow me to only go NORTH to get out. Craziness. They could have at least indicated parking in this lot only lets you out on 1N to 95, if thats the case. For tonight, it would be helpful to know if indeed parking south of the stadium, allows you to get on 1SOUTH to 495. (I hope Im clear, darn my fuzzy head.)
thanks!
It was awesome show last ngiht!! Cant wait for tonight!

I had a great time last night also. It was great meeting both of you. I was happy to meet quite a few Interferencers that i hadn't been before, cathalmc (I forgot to get your autograph though) , mellow moog, daygloeyes, Val, Kassandra, blm, as well as, bonoishot and lauramullen, who I had met previously. I think I met a few other people, but after a couple of scotches I'm lucky i remember who I did.
I went with U2floridafan and it goes without saying that it was great to see you again!!
So did anyone make it into the inner circle after showing up at 5:00 PM or later?
Hi rr, it was nice to meet you too, BLM, Val and Joanne are sitting right here saying hi too . It was fun meeting all of you guys and sharing stories about those 4 Irish guys!
Sorry about the beer spill Cathalmc!

Yesterday was by far the BEST GA experience I have had so far. Well, of course I've only had 2 GA experiences, but I think if you're a GA virgin, Gillette may be the best place for you to do it.
Food runs and bathroom runs are a breeze because of the set up of Patriot Place. And all that stress about parking and GA line actually turned out to be easier than anticipated...
Kudos to the Patriot Place security and all the fans running the GA line.
Of course there always has to be drama in just about every show. There were a group of 10 people who cut in line by slowly inching their way forward. Repeated tries to remove them from the line or make them move backwards to the end of the line failed. Security made them throw out their beers. I almost took a picture of them just so I can post it and make a wall of shame with it.
But on the VERY POSITIVE side, I met so many wonderful people during the lineup, Interference members and non. The weather was gorgeous, and I was lucky enough to get the rail position on the pitch. I met a few more people along the rail and behind me.
The view was absolutely magnificent from my place. I was positioned between Bono and Adam, and I could see the entire stage and the screen really well.
Snow Patrol had an amazing night. The Boston crowd lifted them up when they asked us to sing along, we sang along even AFTER the song has ended. That had Gary reeling... And then they launched into Run and Chasing Cars!!! Two of my favorite songs from them!!
There were a couple of incidents around my area, the security guard in front of me really had her work cut out for her. People got drunk and started to push their way to the front. Danny, a guy standing behind me, practically had to shove someone who tried to muscle their way to the front. And that person probably weighed twice as much as Danny... I complained to the security guard, but he and his manager basically just shrugged. I was surprised. I said there's really nothing you can do about these idiots? The sup said, it's general admission... I said, oh, so is it okay then if I kick anybody who tries to take my place or squishing me? He said, oh no kicking is allowed but you can push back if anybody starts pushing... I just gaped in horror.
During U2 some drunks tried to push their way in to the front. They pretended that they were being pushed by others, but they were bumping into everyone in the front. Some lady was crying saying she got bit... oy... the things that happen in the pitch!!
But the night was about U2. And oh man, this was the best view I have ever had at their concert!! Since I'm short I prefer to be on the first or second row, because beyond that I would have to struggle to see past people's heads and backs.
They started playing Major Tom and Kingdom, and smoke started coming out of the claw... and the nighttime entrance for Larry is obviously soooo much more dramatic than the daylight entrance in Dublin. He appeared and started banging on his drums to the Breathe intro. And then The Edge and Adam took the stage. And finally Bono!! And I couldn't believe that I've come to this point after waiting two months since Dublin!! The boys are back!!
I'll try to post some of my pictures and upload my videos later. The setlist is not that interesting. They sound checked YBR but didn't play it. It may get played tonight.
Here's a teaser:
He was had RedZone tickets but ended up inside the circle by us (edge-side by the bridge). Nice guy!
When "Crazy" came on, our little area felt like a Rave, with people bouncing around, and a guy dressed like a cow. Hilarious.
By far, I had the most fun I have had at a show since PopMart.
It was fun to see a few Interferencers (randomly) after the show too!
$tadium lots are $40.00How much does parking cost?
