an_cat I wanted to ask him one more question but I think it's better to leave that thread die...I see the only reason it's still alive is because we U2-lovers write there :lol: :lol:

 

And well of course after the show you're going to see we want a detailed description from you...I've just read something by people who went to New York *envy, envy, bad thing*...well I hope one day I'll be able to see them in the USA, I think it would be a completely different atmosphere compared to European stadiums :rolleyes: much closer to them :cool:

don't bother asking him any questions iriden,he just replies with swear words and generaly disgusting behaviour

I like some songs by u2, but goddamn, they're one of the most overrated bands of all time.

Thanks an_cat for telling me what's going on. I 'visited' his hate thread yesterday, thought of asking him a question but decided (like you iriden) that it's better to leave it to die :rolleyes:

 

It's weird actually, how someone who loves Coldplay so much can actually hate U2 that much at the same time... I mean it's so :huh: They're quite alike in so many ways, and the things that're good about Coldplay can be found in U2 as well. To me it's like you can't like one band without liking the other (well, ok maybe u could not like Coldplay coz they came later than U2 and arguably possibly copied them, but I pretty much thought it was impossible the other way round :lol:)

I can't understand how people can hate U2.... It's really weird to me. I mean, this band feels like my life force sometimes and to think that people hate it so much... I can't help but feel personally insulted! People who decide that U2 is overrated, or sucks, or is the antichrist, are simply fools. They haven't listened with both ears and hearts open. And that's my say in it.

 

 

iriden, oh don't worry! You'll get EVERY last detail! Plus pictures! My seats are front row right behind the stage (the demented pervert in me is definately making this smiley face: :wink3: ). :lol: I'M SO EXCITED! I can't believe I'll be seeing them Wednesday as well! I know I'll never be as close as I was in October (front row GA can't be beat), but I'm sure it'll be great on a completely different level.

 

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!

 

I'm going up early to hang around the loading docks to see them come in, everybody cross your fingers for me that they come out in the frigid 37 degree New England weather!!! I need to say something to Bono, I so wanted to say "Thank you for your work for Africa and the One campaign, Bono." back in October, but I froze up. I wont do that this time. And if they're too afraid to freeze their Irish bums off with us seasoned Bostonians, then well... Maybe in Hartford...

^omg! that's true...you'll see them in less than a week...hope you have an awsome time danilelle!! :D :D :D btw. i love your avi, its so u2. coexist eh?... :dozey:

Bahahah I had slightly behind on Edge's side. Quite a nice veiw, if I do say so myself. :wink3:

Bono's speech from the podcast (and YES. I did type this all up myself, and it took me a long time. Not like I'm complaining or anything, but my fingers hurt!):

 

"Equality for Africa. That's a big, expensive idea. You see, the scale of the suffering numbs us into a kind of indifference. What on earth can we all do about this? Well, much more than we think. We can't fix every problem, but the ones we can I want to argue we must. And because we can, we must. This is the straight truth, the righteous truth. It is not a theory. The fact is that ours is the first generation that can look disease and extreme poverty in the eye. Look across the ocean to Africa and say this and mean it. We do not have to stand for this. A whole continent written off. We do not have to stand for this. Last year, at DATA, this organization I help set up, we launched a campaign to summon this spirit in the fight against AIDS and extreme poverty. We're calling it the One Campaign. It's based on our belief that the actions of one person can change a lot. But the actions of many, coming together as one, can change the world. Well, we feel that now is the time to prove we're right. There are moments in history when civilization redefines itself. We believe this is one. We believe that this could be the time when the world finally decides that the want and loss of life in Africa is just no longer acceptable. This could be the time that we finally get serious about changing the future, for most people, who live on planet Earth. A lot of people are getting together and working under this umbrella I told you about earlier, the One Campaign. I think they just have one idea in their mind, which is: Where you live in the world, should not determine whether you live in the world. History, like God, is watching what we do. When the history books get written I think our age will be remembered for three things. Really it's just three things that this whole age will be remember for. The digital revolution, yes. The war against terror, yes. And what we did, or did not do, to put out the fires in Africa. Some say we can't afford to. I say, we can't afford not to. Thank you."

^wow..... i looove this part...

bono rules...bono does it....everytime he talks he leaves me speechless.... :stunned:

 

about floor tickets..im not close, close, but im right at the center of floor :D

Oh it's his lordship!!!!

I love Bono's speeches, he can really touch people hearts, and even if he will obtain just a little part of what he's asking it's a victory in any case :)

 

Good to know that everyone here will be as much close as I was to see them, it's really a lifetime experience to have Bono singing "Sometimes you can't make it on your own" almost crying just 2 metres away, and also listening him singing in italian during "Miss Sarajevo", and everyone in the stadium following him in chorus :rolleyes: I love that man, and I love this band :blush:

U2 in Monterrey!...U2 in Monterrey!...rumors are everywhere...this is so close to be truth!... :stunned:

:thumbsup: Bono's speeches inspire me. I am very interested in humanitarian work, in my future. Bono's talk of Africa (and not just that continent, but MANY third world and developing countries) has sparked something in me. If I had never listened to this man speak... I don't like to think of what I would be today. And that scares me. He's made me a better person, that I know for sure. (I desperately want to tell him this on Sunday or Wednesday.... I hope I can!)

 

 

Duuuuuuude... I KNOW! Bono stood and stared RIGHT in my general direction for the entire first minute and a half of the song (I swear he was looking right at me at one point, and I could see his eyes since he took off the damn sunglasses for once). It was the most intimate, wonderful and elevating experience of my life. I can't listen to that song the same anymore. :cry: Same with Miss Sarajevo. I can't even listen to that recorded, it chokes me up so much. Let alone live!!! Beautiful....

I'm so LOVE U2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My favourite: beautiful day, and elevation!!!!!!!!! :) :)

I like U2 :)

I went an saw Just Friends today and they kept talking about Bono and U2 :lol:

Is Just Friends a movie? I'll have to look for it!! :lol: :lol:
