    Hahahahahhahaa epic Fuck you scalpers!


    Yeah Matt, I believe that. It always happens. Either with saturated or underplayed markets, there is ALWAYS tickets being sold at under face value last minute. You just have to be bold enough to wait for that moment, and then score the bargain. A.l.w.a.y.s.

    Except 360 night 3 in Dublin.
  3. Except The Roxy too

    (I don't believe no tickets were sold last minute for the 3rd Dublin night with 80.000 in attendance)
  4. Oh Canada, I'd stand on GA for U2 in Toronto, if only I could find GA tickets :-( This new system with credit card on site verification is positive to keep scalpers at bay, I hope, but it sure made getting tickets complicated. If anyone is going and now has a plus one available... let me know :-)
  5. Keep checking Ticketmaster for a GA drop. There have been GA drops 1-2 days before shows in all other cities. Good luck!
  6. Those nights gonna be the same old same old
  7. Well we've got a couple days until Toronto. I'm not sure if we'll see new material show up at this stop, but I'm hoping we get two 24 song nights. It seemed like the band is comfortable with putting something between Beautiful Day and WOWY again and I hope it stays like that.
  8. Only surprise surely could be one tree hill
  9. It's getting close!! I'm leaving Newfoundland on Sunday and heading west to Toronto. I need to move somewhere that artists actually come to play because these trips are getting expensive!

    I'd love a tour debut too...preferably a song I have not yet heard live. (Playboy Mansion please?)

    I hope we get 24 songs as well because I'd love to hear Bad but even more than that I'd love to hear All I Want Is You.

    I wish I knew about this GA ticket drop- or the possibility of it but I couldn't wait so I got a cheap seat for night 1.

    How much were the GA anyway?

    If anyone hears anything about a ticket drop please let me know? I can give my seat to my mom (who is now going to Night 2 with me after I got dumped- bless her she is also paying for our hotel)- I'd love to do GA.

    So excited for you! Countdown
  11. Just 3 more sleeps!! Can't wait!! Have GA for both nights. I am thinking of standing farther back to the side on the 1st night to really take in the stage/screen and then get up close for the 2nd night.
  12. Not sure if just me but after all these years of seeing U2 live in multiple cities during every tour since ZOO TV, I find that Toronto was always the most reserved crowd that I've personally seen. So much so that we were reluctant to spend the $$ and travel to Toronto this time around for the ietour after having been there for all the Elevation, Vertigo and 360 shows. But it's U2 so going anyways. I remember when I was there for the 360 shows security noticed us jumping one night, motioned and ushered those I was with to come down from our seated section onto the floor and escorted us into the inner circle after the 1st two songs.

    Don't get me wrong Toronto, love the city, has great people and got Bono and Edge to sign my ticket while in GA line one time. Vertigo show #4 was great with a surprise encore with the Pop Music intro and Discotheque played after. Just compared to crowds of other major hub cities from the likes of Montreal, Boston, Chicago, NYC and some EU cities that I've seen the band in over the years, it's night and day.

    I find it's the crowd that makes the gigs better and more enjoyable regardless of the setlist.

    Please prove us wrong this time around Toronto and be as loud as never before
