    2017 Live JT Vocals As Compared to 1987

    I find Exit to be superior in this tour, vocally and musically to that of '87......pretty much in all aspects. It is thematically consistent as well which I think really adds a lot to the song. There just seems to be more anger and intensity to the 2017 performances. I've become a fan of...

    It's GA "line" shenanigan time!

    That Dublin queue was Marquis de Sade-esque. (I exaggerate a bit) :wink: Tiny little cattle chutes. We were all over each other, and definitely no way to stretch out. Thank God the weather in Dublin in July was nice...and those days were like low 70's.

    It's GA "line" shenanigan time!

    Christ, you guys and gals have balls swinging closer to the ground than I could ever hope to have. I'm just happy to get a rail spot (wherever), good sight lines and sound. I don't have any such memorabilia, but good for y'all. Although Bono did sing to my son during 360. I guess that's "my"...

    It's GA "line" shenanigan time!

    Depends on the venue. Philly allowed non-clear bags. My wife brought in a black shoulder bag with all sorts of stuff in there, no clear bags

    It's GA "line" shenanigan time!

    Ah, ok. Those were the details I was missing. Still sounds like a massive fuck up, even though those in positions 1-40 still got where they needed to be. So pretty much all the check-in's and everything were fairly useless for anyone beyond #40? I mean, they were up to roughly #200 before...

    It's GA "line" shenanigan time!

    Ask that question to the gal at the top of the tree who caught Bono's backwashed waterbottle and quite literally looked like her head was going to explode :lol:

    It's GA "line" shenanigan time!

    Re: Philly GA After some of that FB group drama referenced above, didn't there exist a major shitshow for GA anyway caused by the venue that essentially neutered the line/list process anyway? I wasn't in GA, but was talking with someone who was (and was livid) and they had been one of the...

    How crowded is Red Zone?

    Haven't been to JT17 RZ yet (doing so in Philly though), but for 360 it was a fantastic and relaxing experience. Strolled in at a reasonable hour, easy to get a nice spot, go back and forth to the bathroom, and there's a bar. At the time, our son was 11 I think. This time, he's 17 and about...

    Ticket stubs

    Yup, my "collector's ticket" for Dublin is pretty sweet. Nice plastic ticket with nice graphics complete with lanyard. Cheap upgrade.

    So Does Anyone Wanna Place Any Bets on the New RHMT Vocal?

    Lots of twists and turns and opinions in this debate. Be happy you can debate how the vocals will be to any of their songs on this upcoming tour or any future tour because there will come that day when they won't tour any longer. I'm a big fan of Rush, and whether you love or hate them (they...

    July 22, 2017 - Dublin IE - Croke Park

    Nope...but don't expect them for awhile either. For 360 I didn't get mine till really just a few weeks before the show. Not worried :)

    What age would my kids truly appreciate U2 show? (&Can I buy your EXIT presale code?)

    It worked out great, he was a trooper. We got to Croke Park at around 5:45-6am were roughly around 110th in line. We literally spent the whole day just chilling out in line. Keep in mind, Dublin in July on that day was about 70-75F (from my recollection), so it was comfortable. Plenty of...

    What age would my kids truly appreciate U2 show? (&Can I buy your EXIT presale code?)

    We took our 9 year old over to Dublin for 360, went to 2 shows. 1 was GA where we camped out from 5:45am. He went to a total of 4 shows that tour. (one was RZ) This year, he (now 16) is joining his 10 year old sister going to Dublin and a few shows here in the States. He absolutely...

    Croke pitch 1& pitch 2?

    I agree. For 360 the whole town was ablaze in U2 (save the neighborhood surrounding Croke). We walked from our hotel near St. Stephen's Green to the Guinness factory store, and at the bar atop it it was one big U2 party. All U2 tunes playing, absolutely packed. We stumbled back to the hotel...
