Fans Needed For New Orleans Pregame

fragrant · 09-19-2006, 04:00 AM

I AM ON THE FIELD FOR THE PERFORMANCE!!!

OMG!!!!

To make a long story short, I had called the pregame production people once I heard about U2/Green Day performing "Saints" in New Orleans. I never thought that they'd return my call, but they surprised me today and did. The set up will be similar to the Superbowl half-time show, and they need fans out there having fun.

There might be a bus taking us from Baton Rouge, or a bus from within New Orleans. We have to be in the building by 3 PM for a practice run.

They'll perform for 8 minutes at 7:20 and then we're out of there. This deal does NOT include tickets to the game.

IF YOU THINK THAT YOU COULD BE IN NEW ORLEANS LOUISIANA ON MONDAY AFTERNOON BEFORE 3 PM, PLEASE CONTACT ME. SHE SAYS THAT IT WOULD BE GREAT IF I COULD ROUND UP 50 PEOPLE. A BUSLOAD. THERE WILL BE 1000 VOLUNTEERS OUT THERE!

I'm taking names on a first come, first serve basis.

Fragrant - That is so awesome, have a great time!!!

Thanks guys.

Any other takers?

I've had one person from these boards respond. There's room for more so please spread the word.

Thanks.

You might get a better response in the "Everything You Know Is Wrong" Forum.

Maybe you could ask a mod to move this for you.

I wish I could go.

LyricalDrug · 09-19-2006, 01:18 PM

Awesome!!! You should email the moderators of other major U2 fan sites (atu2.com, etc.) and ask them to spread the word, too. It would be awesome to see lots of fans on the field during the performance.

fragrant · 09-19-2006, 01:23 PM

Good tip. I'm not familiar with these boards to know the best spot for this info.

How do I go about contacting a mod....I guess the best way?

U2.com is my home, and I'm here now and then too. atU2.com is a great idea.

It's only a little over 500 miles - we could drive that in 8 hours...

Would love to go and be on the field. I have a flight to N Orleans but no game ticket. Anyone know of an extra ticket for a reasonable amount, please let me know.

fragrant · 09-19-2006, 06:51 PM

Have you emailed me?

You don't need a ticket to do this kavera. We're just in and out for the 8 minute set.

skjuls · 09-19-2006, 09:08 PM

Fragrant.

I emailed you from my epa email!! Ticket is booked. Just need the details on when the bus is so I can make sure I get there on time!!
