U2 360

Anyone going?

I'll be lining up in the general admission line.

First big concert for me ever, so really looking forward to it.

Going to be a massive setup.

Bought the DVD last week and have watched it twice - will be pleased if the show is half as good as that at the rose bowl; 97000 at that one.

Only downside I can for see is the crappy 10.30pm curfew - so the song list won't be as long.  Oh and the fact that the oval is way too small, so not really 360.

Cheers Pete

Yep , would have to agree there , we went Saturday night and were offered some tickets again for Sunday night , but stayed home and watched the 360 tour DVD instead but would have to say they certainly know how to entertain and inpress the public, there was nothing to fault except it finished toooo early

Cheer up mate.

Jay Z will fly over soon on his way home - give him a wave....or is it the diamond, pump or something like that.

Cheers Pete

Awesome show !!

You must have been there early Pete to be up front and close !

Judging by the JayZ image, you couldn't have been too far around from where we were shooting from - just to your left right under the one of the arms of the "Claw"

Not sure if it's just a generation thing, but I felt I was robbed with the time spent watching JayZ...that's 30 minutes of my life I'll never be able to get back...... 

As everyone else has said about U2...bloody fantastic show...

Definitely by far the best show I have ever seen !

Only 2 small complaints....a revolving stage would have been fantastic and fitted in with the 360 theme and also the final encore should have been a belter !

 

Also...whats with all that 2 hands in the shape of a diamond crap ????????????

Well, I paid the extra for seats in the stands, and it could not have been a worse decision. Not helped by the crap plastic tiny seats. Does anyone know what the last song they played was, bloody terrible choice.

Yeah was 1 back from

Wed, 2010-12-22 08:15

Yeah was 1 back from the stage Paul.  The first pic is the other 92 people in front of me (as I was 93 through the gate), 'walking' quickly to the inner circle.  Lined up from 9.30am which sounds stupid (and in hindsight didn't need too), but it was a great day chilling and chatting to the die hards in the line.

Agree, 30 minutes disappeared.  Hahaha - just checked your pics Paul  - the one of the crowd watching JayZ, says it all!  About 2 good songs there from JZ.  Lost in the diamond etc, but it looked good.

Moment of Surrender was the last song Cammos.  Think that has been a regular comment from all preformances in Oz.

Cheers Pete
