In an earlier post I mentioned viewing videos to learn how to pick up, but have yet to find an online resource/video specifically about 7-11 pick up. Hope not to have misled folks looking for help. Put out word to Ticket Pia, and possibly fans who purchased have contacted them, too. Congrats to everyone heading to Saitama!

You are welcome, @mich40 ! Right now I'm researching pick-up details for 7-11s and once I better understand, will post.

There are helpful tutorials on using the Ticket Pia machines via YouTube, and a GoogleMap search of nearby 7-11s to Saitama Super Arena show you multiple locations. 7-11s in Japan are absolutely nothing like the ones we have in the States. You'll appreciate their existence.

I really appreciate this story. Some artists keep it humble and truly connect with fans. Thank you for sharing it with us.

First post to this thread in 2019?! The show announcements for Australia, Japan, Singapore and Korea brought me back in. Originally an 'old zoo' member in 2005, and traveled inside and out of the forums over the years. Always as Fragrant, of course. Hoping that there are other fans who will gravitate back or jump in for the first time. Peace! Much love! Irene Baton Rouge, Louisiana

@toyoracer Woot!!! Love it!!

@artalvarez I think we can celebrate the New Orleans show indefinitely. It was a special night, and dang, you had an excellent surprise!!! Seeing Larry had to be the best pre game treat to prep you for U2. Very cool! ❤️

Thank you, Max!

Miss Sarajevo is back.

"New Birth, Rebirth, Trombone Shorty!" - Bono, September 25, 2006 Who knows the song and location Bono sang these words? It's awesome to see them together again. They almost missed him as Trombone Shorty heads out on tour tomorrow, September 14.

@iinsure, that takes a lot of U2 trust. Nice how you are paying forward. These are not an easy sell. I have an extra one, too. Good Luck, and see you there!

I'm only 80 miles away!! Thank you, U2, for adding New Orleans to the JT tour. Your return is special!! Let's breathe some life into this thread. Flashbacks to their other visits? Anyone from the Zoo going?

@toyoracer - You endured a scary and exhausting experience during relentless Harvey. I appreciate your story and it's good to know that you made it through without damage on top of the emotional trauma. I'm sorry you missed Detroit, and it's cool that you were able to get a ticket refund. I'm guessing that all is a go for New Orleans this Thursday!! When do you get into town?

@sm2112 We'll see you there! Yes, NOLA with U2 in the midst is a good thing.

No apologies for sharing your story. It puts us in the emotional space of that time and appreciate your experience more. I'd think that U2 going back to do this first full concert would reflect on that time in their lives and hearts, too. 'Stuck in a Moment' and memories of Michael Hutchence. Come on through NOLA en route to St. Louis. :)) If you can make it that would be awesome!
