*clod*

Yep, Cape Cod, CQ! It was fun, I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself. Sailing is fun. Weather is warm. People milling about in a relaxed way. Life is good.

I'm still plotzing over that set list. It's like, every song from the North American list (aside from the really rare ones like Wild Horses - which I listened to a few days ago, and decided it's probably better live than it is recorded) - a Vertigo 2 AND 40!! I mean, wow.

So what did you do there, Elz? Aside from miss us a lot and stuff your face with fish, as is your norm.

Are you really ditching the October trip, Tiff? That'd mean not meeting me! Which is a Godsend for myself, of course...but what are you going to do with that 'Days till I molest Ellie' calendar now?

And nothing too exciting to report about Cape Cod...it's just as you'd imagine. I've been there plenty of times before. Just lazing about, and going for 'scenic drives', and the odd trip on the water. The food is divine, though.

What a leach. Couldn't you just sleep at Grand Central Terminal or something? Maybe under the stars in Central park? Or on a nice cosy subway bench?

I think if I do end up having to crash at your place, it's going to be from the 7th to 11th (with that one night in the middle for my birthday part-ay!), so we're looking at about 3 nights. I'm still eyeing Seattle - it's a couple hundred dollars cheaper, but with all the trouble to actually get to and from Seattle, it may not be worth it, and I may have to save up for Vancouver anyway.

Oh! I forgot to tell you - that movie with Robin Williams and Cheno also has your cousin, JoJo! She was on set too (and wears a LOT of make-up!!), but I thought it would be awkward to introduce myself as your Internet buddy. Good judgment call?

Tiff, I'd say good use of disgression re: JoJo. She probably wouldn't even recognize my name (I've only met her 2 or 3 times at family-type functions...I think a wedding, a baby shower, and a graduation) and she was probably 10 at the last one. I just remember her from hearing her being chatted up for being on Rosie/Maury, etc (at the last "function" she had a Rosie jacket on). I want all the dirt on her though, Tiff!

Jez, I can't wait to hear more from you once you're able to collect yourself! I think (considering what they've been doing for songs this tour) this was just about the perfect setlist, for me...would have been nice to squeeze one more Boy song in, but geez...Gloria, Bad, what, 26 songs?!?! How can you complain about that?!?!?

Mabel. Label your spoilers.

Haha, it's okay. You're right, it was nothing really all that surprising. And I am more concerned about avoiding Leg 3 spoilers.

There are Rosie jackets? And she (JoJo) was wearing one? That sounds like it would be too "uncool" for her.

Yeah, I guess I get the Rosie jacket thing.

Don't worry about the spoilers, I was just being annoying! This is a U2 tour thread, so it makes sense to talk about U2 concerts here, especially the ones that our very own board members attended!

Ooh, Mabel, Jeff Goldblum was on Letterman last night! I happened to be flipping channels and saw it. I really like him, he was so considerate and classy. He seems like a really great guy. And funny, too!

Elphie, you "just being annoying"??? I guess that threw me for a loop! You're usually the one on the straight and narrow here! Though I can't believe I actually typed "I can't believe they did A, B, C, D, and E!!!" I totally forgot about that this morning. I was like "what could Elphie possibly be talking about. I definitely put significant spoiler warnage on that setlist post!"

As a side note, I can't believe I've been having trouble getting rid of my extra potential DMB ticket for Randall's Island. I think I may have a taker (from NH) but I had to go through like 5 other people already! I'm not a huge Dave fan, but I feel like I'm something of a reject to our generation if I never see DMB in concert...Besides it's w/ BNL and j'adore BNL!! $50 for a 10 hour concert fest is a good deal, I suppose. Well, assuming it's quasi-decent weather-wise.
