    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    Sean 1. No problem with viruses for me and I have downloaded a bunch of other shows on the site. 2. Each part is downloaded in a RAR file. Can download the software to open RAR from the internet for free. I think it is called WinRAR. Click on the evaluation copy - been using that for about a...

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    Just listened to the 4/12 show. Apart from a few key moments, esp where Bono, before "The First Time" says that he has fallen in love with Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, the whole of Japan - which was a touching moment - still prefer the 29/11 gig. But I'm biased! I must say though that it was the best...

    Once it's on U2start then it should still be there. Unless of course they take it down, but v unlikely since it has been up for ages. You should be fine. Well worth downloading as well.

    Arcade Fire tickets sell out in 3 minutes!

    Best chance to see them in any smallish venue from now on is in Asia - hoping that they hit either Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong or Japan. I am hopping on a plane if that is the case since I am not missing my fellow Canadians this time....

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    Nuff said... started way back in 1987 for Joshua Tree Toronto, then Popmart London, Elevation London (where we got to front row) and culminated in the best of the lot - Vertigo Saitama. You can see I have invested many a dollar to see them as well as I live in Hong Kong! Don't know how they are...

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    I can't stop listening to the 29/11 show. I dowloaded it from U2start. It is great quality - probably the best quality available. Reliving those moments - ahhhhh. Yes, hard to come down. But I suppose have to get on with things. I listened to the Honolulu gig, but somehow pales in comparison -...

    HAWAII: Lining Up Two Days Early

    Yikes, that sounds like a disaster. Man, I knew this was going to happen - there are always selfish pricks at every concert that ruins the experience for everyone else. I was glad that I saw them in Japan - very organised, no bullshit like this. We showed up at 5pm for 6pm entrance and got in as...

    Anyone else slightly disappointed with Hawaii set-list?

    Really the difference for me is Wild Horses v One Tree Hill. Luckily I was one of the few who saw OTH live (played only 4 times this tour -twice in NZ, twice in Tokyo). If I had the choice, being so rare, OTH would have been my pick. But apart from that I would not have been disappointed to...

    Fantastic pics!!!! I will try and post some of those that we took at Saitama 1. But very impressed with these, esp. the geisha girls!

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    Yeah this was the first thing I looked for when I saw the Dec 4 setlist - was really glad to have seen the first show as it appears they only played OTH as a follow on from the NZ shows -and it only lasted 2 nights. Phew - was the moment of the entire trip for me hearing them playing OTH. But...

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    However, if you guys want to buy merchandise - the queue is insane. Again, I managed to weasle my way in w/o waiting. At the Will Call ticket window side there is a guy ushering people out of the merchandise sales area. Try and sneak in around him - my brother got caught, but I got in later...

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    No worries. The Will Call pick up is actually very easy - there was noone in line when I got there at about 5pm, so you can go at any time before I would say 545pm. They start calling the numbers before 6 actually - like 550pm. And there is no need to line up beforehand - alot of the people were...

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    ONE TIP... these reference numbers are merely a guide so as to get the people into the arena in an orderly fashion - a lot of people moved much before their number was called and they had no problem. The way it works is that they call your number outside Gate A. You are then guided down the side...

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    First of all I want to say that this was easily the best U2 show I have seen. It was almost a greatest hits set and probably intended in light of the U218 release - I was looking at the set list only yesterday of Aus/NZ and this was far and away better than all of them except for one night in...

    I am in the Apple Shop in Ginza right now - yes a beautiful day here. Planning to come to the stadium at around 430pm now, after reading the above message. So need a bit of time to get the tickets at Will Call etc. See you guys later

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    You have to make sure it is the SAME credit card you ordered the tickets with. So those of you that have a few, please check your statements before leaving for Japan for the correct one, especially if you are planning not to take all the contents of your wallet. I am getting really psyched up...

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    I'm there. Leaving here on 28th. Going to get to the arena probably around 4pm to scope out the situation re: tickets and lining up. Hope to see you there. We are in Block A GA.

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    Then again, I did remember that the pick up for tix is only for international buyers - the Japanese buyers (probably 70% at least) already have tix in hand so it might not be TOO long a wait after all.

    ALL Tour Dates and Openers for Vertigo Tour

    Is there an opener for the Japan dates?:rolleyes:

    How to get Tokyo tickets?

    Yes, that's true. Got me all concerned now as to what time to get to the arena to line up to pick up the tix. If there is only 1-2 ticket outlets, then we're screwed - will be a long wait. Damn, will have to get there much earlier now. If I didn't already have enough things to think about ...
