One person will be in tears at the rail before the DJ even starts

I’d better start making that sign asking for Return Of The Stingray Guitar.

leaving thursdays you dirty tricksters!!!

Also what do the GA wristbands look like because it would be amazing if I accidentally passed out 500-1000 of them that look similar just to annoy the GA crowd.

So Larry is on board?

With my idea to pass out fake wrist bands? Of course.

Clerks will be passing 500 of them out in Vegas tomorrow.

Cubic Zirconia Clerks

for real though, what would happen if like 10 other people said they're doing an official line? I know the problematic people usually get their way, but that's only against one other line nazi. If we throw 11 into the mix, who knows what happens.

roll the dice people, it's vegas.

I Google lensed that diamond bracelet, it's $56,000. I will trade my wristband from November for that.

I would love to see people form a second secret line at 1 am instead of 4 am. Good Lord it's ridiculous. I think I saw the woman who must be in charge of the secret line in the GA line back in November. I believe she actually had a megaphone , maybe she borrowed it from Bono.

I found the sphere but not the way the signs said. I think it’s blocked anyway but I walked up sands to find it. And found the 10 ga idiots in line.

Our man in the inside… is outside.

Hey look, Clerks found his seats

 

[dmalezi]

I think @clerks got a sharpie number. He pawned Mrs. Clerks expensive bracelet and bought a GA ticket with the cash. He's just not telling us.

The band passed by Zoo Station last night.

appears that they're in the "hey, i don't give a crap if i get covid at this point" stage of the residency

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

as we come to an end of the Sphere residency - i can't help but think back to the handful of members who were adamant that this was going to be a disaster - whether that was because of no Larry, or that Vegas was a joke for morally corrupt bootlicking rubes and the band would be seen as old and out of touch for doing this, or that the venue was going to be a disaster and never work.

it would be great to get a few opinions from that group now that we're done and the shows have been, by most accepted measurable standards, a huge success.

i know at least one such person did end up going after all... but it would be interesting to hear some perspectives now and see if they've changed their tune, and/or are ready to keep fuckin' that chicken to death.

 

[MrsSpringsteen]

Nevermind

I was nervous for them. They have such a good track record of making awesome stage shows, and they were clearly enamored enough with the venue technology to go for it, but it was still a high visibility thing and it would have sucked to see them make a mess of it. I was also a bit worried about B’s voice based on the handful of things we’d heard since they last toured.

Saw opening night and they just nailed it. They’d clearly rehearsed the hell out of the show, Bono sounded fine, and the visuals were fantastic. I’m so excited to catch it a second time Saturday night.

 

[djerdap]

I think this is their best show since PopMart and my favourite time of being a fan in around 20 years.

Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in! Now I guess they'll go and fuck it all up again.

 

[Miroslava]

The band passed by Zoo Station last night.

All these pictures were nice to see. My friend who is there also sent me pictures of the Trabby at Zoo Station. All 4 of them signed it, with Bram making a very cute drum kit. The lowlight was seeing Bono writing "6 oclock in the morning your the last to hear the warning"

Thankfully there is room for him to add an apostrophe and the missing e, but someone needs to drag him back there.

[clerks]

When did they show last night? Those bastards showing w/o telling me.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

they chose a time when they knew that you would be checking in at the GA line

 

[dmalezi]

The guy just in front of us in line at 8am this morning for wristband told me around 7pm yesterday evening.
