u2eitour Manchester Live Thread #U2eiTour
padawanbeck84 replied to Max Tsukino's topic in Manchester Arena, Manchester, UK
I'm about to set off up to Manchester. Really excited The venue has said that for security (and lack of space) reasons, we will not be able to have the usual GA line, so just be aware of that if you normally line up early. There are plenty of other places to hang out and meet up with fellow fans nearby before the doors open.- 545 replies

Twickenham Stadium - U2 Concert Guide
padawanbeck84 replied to Canadanne's topic in London - Twickenham Stadium
Does the no bags policy only apply inside the stadium itself? I'm doing GA, plan to line up early and will be bringing food/water with me in a carrier bag. Surely they can't object to fans keeping themselves hydrated? -
I will look out for Joshua in the GA line at Twickenham. I'm enjoying following his adventures on FB and Twitter. It shows yet again how the U2 fandom is a big global family.

With IETour, the stage layout with the long catwalk down to e-stage meant there was plenty of rail space to go round. At the first London show, I arrived to the queue at maybe 12.30pm, was about number 300 in the queue and got to be right by the rail near e-stage. A friend who had arrived at 9am got to be right on the rail. With this stage lay-out, it doesn't look like there will be so much rail space, so I would advise getting there as early as you can. Officially, some venues might tell you that you can only queue up outside from 9am or something like that. If you can't be there all day, try and get there for lunchtime, around midday and with luck you should still get to be within the front few rows. Also, try and make sure you take snacks and water with you for in the queue

In 1987, I was just turning 3 I didn't know who U2 were at that age so I'm very glad that they're doing this JT anniversary tour. As for advice, I'd tell myself to try and avoid the football accident where I got kicked in the head aged about 9. That led to me developing epilepsy which really messed up my later childhood and teen years.

£86??? That's ridiculous - especially for a plastic pop group who might spend half their show miming! I'm sure your daughter will develop a better taste in music as she grows up - maybe you should start making U2 songs mysteriously appear on her music device of choice!

I'm going - and found out today that some old school friends of mine will also be joining me in the GA line I'm also pondering making a sign to hold up if I'm near the front. On one side, it will say "Play Spaceman" to request that Noel plays the Oasis B-side "D'Yer Wanna be a Spaceman?" and then the flip side will say "Shine Like Stars". But then if I'm holding a sign, I can't clap and wave my arms... Maybe if I put the sign on a string so I can hold it up above my head but still keep it attached to me... ? Not sure yet. I will keep pondering...

Twickenham Coach Travel Option
padawanbeck84 replied to celt_martin's topic in London - Twickenham Stadium
I couldn't find much detail either. Arriving on the day of the concert is a risk - what if the coach(es) get stuck in traffic or another incident on the motorway? I've got GA and plan to travel down on the Friday so I can get there stress-free and be in line early Saturday morning. -
As someone too young to have been to the original Joshua Tree tour, I am seriously looking forward to this. Also... Noel Gallagher as the support!! Dream line-up right there!

America, what the hell were you thinking????

America did not elect Trump. It's an illegitimate election because of all the illegal & immoral Voting Rights Violations by legislators (of a certain political stripe) designed to stop the poor, elderly, minorities, & college students from voting & to make some of their votes not count. Despite all that, Hillary got about 2 & a half MILLION more votes than Trump - and the Electoral College gave Trump the 'win' - but that's because of shenanigans (by that certai...

Can't quite believe tomorrow (Tuesday) will mark 1 year since I finally got to my first U2 concert!

Looks like no #U240 events near me, so I'll mostly spend the day rocking out to the concert DVDs.

5 months to put together a Star Wars X-Wing pilot costume for a local convention... challenge accepted!

At least this website is relatively free of politics... some of the stuff being spewed on my FB timeline is seriously making me consider disowning certain family members

How many people are listening to "Breathe" today? I will.
