90 minute drive from Cincinnati to Louisville and I couldn't make it happen. SOOOO bummed I can't be there tonight?

Credit Card entry method kind sucks if you can't fully commit to going to the concert of your choice. it's basically use it, or lose it. Has anyone ever used a VISA / MasterCard gift card to purchase tickets? Seems like a logical work around in order to sell a "ticket" that can't be used. That way, if you can't use the ticket yourself, you could just send the gift card used to buy the ticket to the person buying the ticket.

is SD concert completely paperless?

TM seems to have fixed their issues for SD concert presale

Tried to purchase a ticket for the SD concert. TM's site got hung-up/crashed before purchase was completed. Tried a second attempt, but presale code no longer valid. Who do i contact regarding getting the presale code reset so i can purchase my final ticket of the four allotted to me.

"Have you heard any news on selling your tickets? I'm in the same situation I have 2 GA tickets for Cleveland and I can't attend now. and can't sell my tickets. Ugh" I experienced a similar situation for i+e tour. I had two extra GA tix for Chicago 5. The only way I could unload them was meet the buyer at United center and essentially walk them to the gate so that the credit card could be swiped to allow them to enter. A major pain, but the only way to make it work. incidentally, I am looking for two GAs for Cleveland. If you're still looking to unload them, and have no others interested, drop me a message.

i am looking for 2 tickets for a friend who wishes to introduce U2 to their pre-teen kids. Would prefer GA tickets, but inexpensive upper deck tickets acceptable too.

Any clues to the staging from the Dreamforce appearance late last year?

for my Son on his 8th birthday I surprised him with GA tickets for Chicago for two nights. I think the kicker is how much of a fan is your kid, how patient they are, and how committed to the GA process. My son never whined in line, once in the arena never said he was tired, thirsty or had to go to the bathroom. I know I am biased, but I really think I have the coolest kid in the world! Good luck on getting to a show. here is a youtube of our Chicago adventure. Wow. What an awesome experience for you and your son! The youtube video documenting it is terrific! I bought our tickets for Cleveland this morning. No pressure to accomplish anything but enjoy the concert from whatever vantage point we have on the field.

So awesome to hear from another Cincinnati fan! There's not many of us in this area. At least that's what it seems like. Don't want to muddy the thread, but part of Cincinnati? Thank you, and everyone else for the responses!

If you are bringing a child and certainly if you are bringing one under 7 (my daughter's age at her first Springsteen concert) make sure you have ear protection! I always bring ear plugs for my daughter. She never needed them for any outdoor shows, but at the U2 show when she was 11 (iE tour at Madison Square Garden), we were sitting very close to a speaker bank and she really needed them. Honestly, I would also be prepared to leave, if you have to. No one will enjoy a temper tantrum, least of all you. We have the ear protection covered. Decent ear covers he uses for fireworks that shouldn't inhibit hearing the music. i often use ear plugs at U2 concerts, even at stadium shows. For me, it seems to improve the sound. We've taken him to baseball games, soccer games, college basketball & football games and he does well in those environments. But, after a few innings, or a half, he's ready to get mobile. Hence the GA ticket. I think arriving closer to show time will help, too We're also attending the concert with friends bringing two pre-teens with them as well. We're not above bribery to make him happy, but will be prepared (mentally) to leave early if we have to.

Thank you for the responses! Helpful insight. Much to consider My wife and I are planning on attending the Cleveland show. We are bringing our young son with us. At least that's the plan at this point. I won't say how young, but he's younger in age to the children of those who have provided responses to this thread. We're going to purchase GA tickets for two reasons - space flexibility and cost. At this point, we no longer feel the need to be close to stage, so we're not going to stand in line before the gates open. Our GA experience for Chicago 360 proved this to be completely unnecessary. Chances are, U2's stage will provide ample opportunity to see the guys on stage. if we bought seats, i think the challenge would be keeping him IN the seat. I think we'll have a better experience on the field with the ability to move around as needed. Wish us luck!

How young was/were your child/children? GA or seats? How was your experience?
