Your most exciting tour moments - Page 6

No spoken words · 12-15-2006, 01:05 AM

Hearing Electric Co on opening night in San Diego and being in shock. Then hearing An Cat Dubh/Into the Heart and being even more shocked (emotional).

Hearing All I Want is You close the tour out after a great trip to Hawaii.

Meeting a handful of interference users at different venues.

Being one row back from the front of the stage at MSG, being THAT close to The Edge. Apparently, Ruffian and Ally were 15 feet away from me that night and I never even saw them.

- Salt Lake City Show GA line at 5am watching snow fall, and wishing I wore an extra pair of socks. Got to shake Adam's hand that night which was really cool.

- Hawaii.

1. London. 18/06. Seeing the huge stage for the first time and watching the ZooStation intro with B-man's silouhette on the screen (I didn't see any zootv shows(.
2. London. 19/06. Hearing Whose gonna ride your wild horses for the very first time.
3. Croke Park. 24/06. Queued all day in the rain, got a place on the left B-stage, Bono sang WWRYWH right there in front of me, I can see myself in the videos going around. (SECOND BEST MOMENT OF TOUR).
4. Vienna. 02/07. Sargent Pepper's snippet. City of Blinding Lights, and Electric Co. I was on Edge's catwalk, Electric Co. blew my mind.
5. Paris. 09/07. She's a Mystery to me snippet!!!! A see of white balloons down in the GA.
6. Milan. 20/07. Original of the species. with string section. edge on guitar. you've seen the dvd. (BEST MOMENT OF TOUR). Also the Hi Bob sign.
7. Monterrey. 12/02. BAD!!!!!! Cielito Lindo!!! Latin American Flags during streets!
8. Mexico City. 15/02. Bono wearing Mexican Flag Jacket!!.
9. Mexico City. 16/02. Fast Cars!!!!!
10. Honolulu. 09/12. Billy Joe durign Saints are coming!!!!!!! The entire Vertigo Tour dates during wake up was really cool too. Saw a lot of faces in the GA line that looked familiar.

The Vertigo Tour was an amazing experience, i am ever so thankful to god that the universe moved itself around so that i somehow managed to see 10 dates, on three different parts of the world. Milan and Mexico City 2 were the most amazing shows of those ten. I do hope larry is telling the truth. See you soon all!!!!!! What an amazing two years!

Hawaii was the best show ever!

1. During MW, Adam kneeled down and I touched his hand. I looked him in his sexy blue eyes and told him " I really love you" He said " I love you too". I started screaming like a banshee and jumping up and down. He took off as I watched his fine arse head up the ramp.

2. Durning Steets, Adam let me touch the bass!

3. I got rail in Hawaii!! My first time in a staduim and my first trip to Hawaii.

4. I met the most wonderful U2 fans. U2 fans are the best!

5. I spent a day on the beach with Edge. I only said "hi"breifly because he was with his children but he was very nice to me. I was only about five to ten feet away from him for about 4 hours. I sat next to him the nanny and the kids on the train ride back to the resort center.

6. I saw Bono having drinks and chain smoking. John promised me we could chat with him but he stood us up.

7. I got to sing Pride( in the name of love) in a stadium at the top of my lungs and it brought me to tears.

4. Scanning ellipse with my tickets both nights in Vegas.
3. Adam winking at me.
2. Adam laughing at me when he saw me yawn next to Mandy dancing.
1. Adam grabbing my ass.

I think it would be the other way around.

zoney! · 12-15-2006, 05:35 PM

In no particular order

:

1) Meeting a woman I am pretty sure I will spend the rest of my life with as I sat in the GA line in Minneapolis

2) Vegas, baby. VEGAS(2). Finally meeting my dear friend lowercase. Interference fun with a bunch of SoCal interlanders! Amazing show with Brandon Flowers and Maty J. Blige joining in.

3) After 20+ years of fandom, having the Edge four feet away outside of the venue in Minneapolis

4) Front of the rail in Detroit with Schmeg, Kariann, ARW9797, LMPA and Miroslava

5) Hanging with ~LadyLemon~ for GA for the first Spring Chicago show (hitting the GA line after a Cubs game). Also had the honor of meeting Chizip!

6) The whole Interference experience in Philly (DaveC, Mrs. Edge, Pax, Diemen, Ewen, Cydewaze, LMPA, Headache)

7) Seeing Eep and Stories for Boys at every show I was at (or pretty close to it).

8) Boston in december! I got to see how a GA line is properly run - saw the show alongside Mrs. Edge - and got to meet some cool Interferencers (Dreadsox, Digsy, popmartjin, BostonAnne, she is raging).

9) Honolulu - probably one of my top three all time shows! Maddy getting up on stage, ending with All I want is You - another great group of Interferencers!

10) The tour ending with larry speaking!

My only true bummer: Between Elevation and Vertigo, I had five GA experiences, but I have not been inside the ellipse/heart ONCE.

My take on all of the shows...Interference has truly enhanced my U2 experiences. THANK YOU fellow Interferencers!

Being able to experience the show so close to the band with people who are just as big of fans as you are is one of the best experiences of the tour

a close second - at a the night before a show with a bunch of interference people - some of the crew are there as well - the video for Sunday Bloody Sunday come on the screens and the whole place goes just a little bit quite - then you start hearing some snickering and one of the crew members (in an Irish accent) saying quite loudly "what a bunch of bloody idiots" -with love of course

and at that show being so close to Edge. The man is amazing

-being on the rail twice

-Larry's bday

-Vegas 2

-having other interferencers teach me how to play blackjack
-Meeting so many great people< really that was the best part

Chrisedge · 12-23-2006, 11:27 PM

(in chronological order)

Getting in to the final dress rehearsal in Los Angeles

Pulling a killer tape opening night (and all the website hoopla 12 hours later when I upped it)

Getting into the Elipse my only time on 4/14/05

Brandon Flowers in Vegas

Watching it all end a year and a half after it started in Hawaii

****
Worst tour moment = Walking out of Los Angeles 1 in the Fall, checking my DAT and realizing I put in a 2 hour tape instead of a 3 hour tape, missing the entire encore and Exit Girls performance.
