Thank you so much for the information. I'm not a member of the U2.com fan club so I cannot buy tickets until 1/31 at 9 AM for this concert and NJ.

Hopefully, I'll be able to get tickets next week. *Fingers crossed*

I'm sure you know this already, but HP Pavillion is only allowing people to buy two tickets for the floor at a time. Is it the same everywhere else? It makes sense. I just have to wake up my bf to buy tickets on his faster computer.

AchtungBaby, can you fly anywhere nearby?

Anyone else have any luck with buying today? I think the shows were sold out before we signed on to Ticketmaster.

I actually got tickets, but they're behind the stage . The tickets sold out in 6 minutes, so they added a second show in Vancouver. The second show sold out in 15 minutes. So I am going to the second show on April 29.

The Elevation tour only had one show and didn't sell out like that, but Pop Mart sucked, so that's our theory. Pop Mart was bad (because of where they played in Vancouver); they played a different venue for Elevation which rocked; so now everyone and their dog is going to Vertigo.

Unhappy

No tickets for me. Sadly, my crossed fingers were not enough.

Just got back from the concert....SO good. They didn't do some of the old stuff...kind of a bummer. Still outstanding though.

I LOVE U2...I may have to go again.

So, what was the setlist? Inquiring minds and all! Besides, I'm SO jealous!!!

Ok, I will try and remember (it was a long set...two encores)

Love and Peace
Vertigo
Elevation
Cry/ Electric Co.
An Cat Dubh / Into the Heart
City of Blinding Lights
Beautiful Day
Miracle Drug
Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
New Year's Day
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Bullet the Blue Sky
Running to Stand Still
Zoo Station
The Fly
Mysterious Ways
Pride in the Name of Love
Where the Streets Have No Name,
One
All Because Of You
Yahweh
‘40’


They've varied the set list every night of the tour so far...but they didn't do a lot of stuff as well... I guess that is what happens when you have 3 decades worth of tunes.

thanks to my connections (I was worried there for a sec)....I will be going either tomorow or wed, I can't wait.

I also put in my order for the november dates.

U2 can not come to a city where I live and I not be there to greet them.

I saw them at the Pond on Saturday with my brother who so owed me this one (he bought tickets to 4 shows of the Elevation tour and didn't save one for me!) I actually was surprised that they played some of the older stuff, especially Boy (right before New Year's Day) and Running to Stand Still, both amazing songs. We had good seats, just above the floor seats, on the edge so we didn't have to stand the whole time (though it was hard not to... stupid girls behind us just sat the whole time, didn't know any songs, it was strange), stage right... it was a great view.

Now I can die happy
