    New Album Discussion 1 - Songs of..... - Unreasonable guitar album

    Someone needs to find Edge a new pedal to play with. When's the last time a u2 song made you go "that's a cool guitar sound, how is he playing that" For me, it goes back to No Line. I remember watching the Letterman shows on youtube to see how Edge was playing those songs. And I didn't really...

    Friday, March 1, 2024 - Sphere, Las Vegas, NV

    I got 2 xl tees at the show in October, ordered 2 more off u2.com this year. All 4 shrunk enough to notice after a couple washings, while my 2 zooropa 30 xl shirts from the web sale are fine using the same washing methods. Slightly annoying.

    U2 live

    The wide angle shot of the whole crowd bouncing in unison as the OoC cranks back up after the 500 pound story. Goosebumps every time. Bono's mic drop at the end of Bad, also goosebumps. Hmmmmmmm . Slane by a smidge.

    Yes, there is a fan run line. yes it is followed by the venue. No you don't HAVE to participate. Just show up and get behind them, either at preshow lineup or morning of wristband line.

    Setlist Discussion Part II - Spoilers Allowed, Enter At Your Own Risk

    It's still a really good show, even with the static setlist of R&H songs. AIWIY, AOH, and Desire are good sing a longs for casuals and LRM is kinda the political statement song. Most people only see 1 show and there's still lots of casuals attending for the venue. I know we all want deep cuts...

    U2 in Vegas - Tips for booking hotels, flights and other Vegasy type things.

    zoo station is just inside the entrance to the grand canal shops off the strip side , but.....nearer to the Palazzo side. From street level there is a big LOVE sign in the lobby. Zoo is right around the right side of the sign.

    Yeah, I hopped on TM yesterday (10/27) after work 4pm Eastern and there were many many many good 100s seats listed at normal $500 price for that night's show. I'm talking prime middle sections in the first few rows. Couldn't believe it, but those are definitely production crew holdbacks being...

    Have to admit, I was a bit skeptical of the demand for more shows at higher prices. A quick peek on TM this afternoon and looks like all the new date have been picked clean except for overhangs and some platinums. Incredible show is really generating buzz. Glad I was lucky enough to see it. Keep...

    The risk with secondary market is the seller has to send you the tix by showtime. On show day, some of the larger re-sellers may not be monitoring all their accounts anymore.

    Ha no idea those were SOS lyrics as I haven't bothered to listen to more than 10 seconds of any SOS tune. I had just assumed it was Bono being Bono with lyrics.

    We were at the Venetian before 7pm. Hit up a virtually empty zoo station, bought some merch. All the while my very tech savvy daughter was hitting up the big 3(TM Stubhub, Vivid) on her phone. Make sure you get signal inside the hotel, we lost a pair of tix when the transaction failed while we...

    U2 Fans Helping Other U2 Fans Get Tickets

    I know not everyone can do this, but if you're in Vegas on a show day and don't have tix, you can try hanging around the venue closer to show time for price drops on the resale sites or ticket drops on TM from unused holdbacks going back in for sale at face. The concierge desk at the pedestrian...

    3 Irishmen and a Dutchman Walk Into A Sphere - General Discussion Thread Part III

    Yeah, once they started sending groups of 10 into the cattle pens, if you missed your # they made you join the current group. Seemed a little unfair considering there was over an hour till doors. Several people tried to cut back in, but they all got caught and send back out to the cattle gate...

    If you're in town on a show day and don't have tix, That's when you want to hit zoo station. At 7pm on Friday 10/13, it was me, my daughter, and like 4 other people that weren't workers. Pics and merch shopping in utter peace. Also, if you exit a show onto Sands Ave. and walk back to the strip...

    Potty break during the show? In GA probably just fine. In seated areas, you're pissing people off if you go mid song. Especially one I've waiting years to hear live. Trust me.:angry:

    A word of caution to anyone with a spare GA. I was unable to do the face value sell back with my 1 extra because I kinda forgot about until show day. When I tried to sell it back to TM, the option was greyed out. After much back and forth on twitter with TM reps, it was determined that within...

    Just got back from our trip. We had Wed. 10/11 GA. We did the # wristband thing. Showed up at 7:30am to a fairly lengthy looking sidewalk line. I was guessing we were gonna be 400+ or worse. Turns out we got #s 272-274. Nice for us. Went to Peppermill for breakfast and returned to the venue at...
