Nic's GA day!! AAAAAAHHHH!!!!

Posted: 11/21/05 at 11:27pm

There's apparently a girl onstage for WOWY. If it's Nicole, I'm going to F*CKing DIE. (TAKE YOUR TOP OFF, NICOLE!!)

It is quite exciting. (The spelling is an inside joke for Patronus when he gets back.)

I hope it is Nicole and that she tried to make out with Adam.

I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

Stuck acoustic! Oh, this is killing me. KILLING ME. AAAAHHHH!!!

I'm actually singing aloud right now. My GOD Nic! GOOD SHOW!!

I'm totally turning this into a one-person set list party.

Er, hope Claire's having fun! Your GA setlist tomorrow will be quite excellent, I swear!

ETA: Evidently my exclamation of "STUCK ACOUSTIC!!!" (and only contribution to the setlist party) was unappreciated by JOFO. Asshole.

ETA2: Evidently CAPS for any other comment are okay, as long as they're not made by me.

ETA3: Evidently telling JOFO that Instant Karma was a whole song and not just a snippet 8 times will not piss him off. (With Patti f**king SMITH!)

ETA4: I hate Interferencers.

ETA5: Bad encore! Woohoo!

Nic's concert is over!

Hurrah! Just spoke to Nic on the phone for like, 20 broken seconds - she wasn't crying or screaming, so I guess it wasn't her dancing with Bono during WOWY.

Here's Claire and Nic's setlist! Claire!! Miss Sarajevo! Did you freak?? I'm still reeling from those two encores. If they'd replaced with......no, I can't even think of what I'd want to replace it. (I've got my fill of Zoo Station/Fly, and Stuck freakin' acoustic and Instant Karma and Bad! Oh my GOD!)

01. City Of Blinding Lights
02. Vertigo
03. Elevation
04. I Will Follow
05. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
06. Beautiful Day
07. Original Of The Species
08. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
09. Love and Peace or Else
10. Sunday Bloody Sunday
11. Bullet the Blue Sky
12. Miss Sarajevo
13. Pride (In the name of love)
14. Where The Streets Have No Name
15. One

16.Until The End Of The World
17. Mysterious Ways
18. With Or Without You

19. The First Time
20. Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of
21. Instant Karma
22. Bad

Instant Karma with Patti Smith. Awesome. And Stuck In A Moment acoustic. And she got I Will Follow from the ellipse! AAAAAHHHH!!! Was it as good as I hoped it would be, Nic? What's with OotS being played before the encores? And no Miracle Drug?? I still can't get over those encores. Are you gonna get caught up on all the spoilers you skipped, Claire?

I'm expected a shriek of "Best! Show! Ever!" in about 20 minutes when the gals gets home.

Jesus, Tiff. I couldn't recall the show as well as just did and I was there!

Guess who has an audio?!?!?!

Here is my ultra classy and intellectual review...THAT WAS EFFIN INSANE.

Thank you and good night.

Wait, wait, wait, you guys were ALL there? I thought you and Claire were both seeing 11/22??? I'm so confused.

Oh my effing God, what an effing CRAZY AMAZING show. Where the hell are those girls? Did you guys all meet up? How come I didn't realize you were at the concert? (Didn't mean to neglect mentioning you before then, Stephen!)

AUDIO NOW!!

Posted: 11/22/05 at 1:26am

No worries, Tiff.

I can barely keep up with my schedule, I can't expect you to.

I met up with Nicole this afternoon to giver her the loot. Nice to meet you Nicole! I can't imagine how insane that must have been from inside the ellipse.

I was in the 300 section and was pissing my pants.

I don't follow the setlists that much, but it just felt like I was witnessing something special.

Normally at concerts, I stand and clap but don't make much sound otherwise. Tonight, I was singing along and screaming at the top of my lungs! It was so incredible!

I have no way to get the audio off of minidisc onto this machine, but as soon as I get home, I'll clean it up, track it and force you to sign on AIM so I can send it.

I took a ton of pictures though, I am about to try and get some of those off the camera, so stay tuned.

*waiting* I thought you'd forsaken me! Can't wait. Seriously, your show was totally amazing. TOTALLY. And you got spared Miracle Drug. Lucky bastard.

We're baaaack!!! And I just made an ass out of myself, falling over in the living room...yeah...totally embarassing. I'll explain later, but let's just say that many hours of standing in not-so-comfy, clunky shoes is a BAD combo!!!

But when did New Hampshire become--Such a backward wasteland of seatbelt hating crazies?...I mean, only 40 people actually live there. The others are just visitors who come for the tax-free liquor and three inches of novelty coastline. John Hodgeman on The Daily Show (1-30-07)

TELL ME EVERYTHING!!! OH MY GOD.

Sorry for calling so many times, but I was a bit over-excited. Stuck acoustic! I know I saw it live, but it still totally gets me. And UTEOTW!

Posted: 11/22/05 at 1:40am

Where the hell did you go, you wench! You've got 5 minutes to reply, then I'm bailing on your ass!

So, I was in the second row of the ellipe between Bono and Adam, and Adam and I had a couple quality "moments"!! J'adore Adam now even more than ever!

I'll post a full-fledged review tomorrow, including my post-concert standing woes, how bitter I am that I missed out on getting plucked by a mere handful of people (and she was uncooperative, so he threw her back), and all that fun business!

Night all...I'm now off to hobble back to my room. Climbing up on the bunkbed should be...interesting.

Oops, guess you're back...I've got to get changed, and I think Claire wants to get some sleep, but I'll fill you in fully tomorrow.

You canNOT leave me hanging like this! Second row? Bono/Adam side? God I hate you even more. Did you and Adam have a moment? Was the crowd out of control? What happened? How was your view of the ellipse? Pictures? PICTURES?!

And get Claire on here - what does she have to say about it?

This is Claire; Nicole is currently unavailable due to her crippling injury. She really did fall down on the living room floor. I was afraid she would never get back up.

I was SSOOOOO excited. The setlist was absolutely amazing. I freaked out for each song they played. I had glimpsed Miss Sarajevo on a setlist while scrolling through here so it wasn't a complete surprise, but I was still thrilled to hear it. Bono singing Pavaroti's part was AMAZING. Nicole says tonight was the best she's heard him sing that. And when they went into Bad I lost it. I think the people around me thought I was crazy. So yeah, it was perfect! I can't wait 'til tomorrow, though, to see if there are any more surprises!

Posted: 11/22/05 at 1:51am

Our digital camera has the ability to capture some video I have no idea how good it is or isn't, but Anji decided to do some and I think we got at least all of Sunday Bloody Sunday.

I am in the process of ripping it from the camera and I'll see if I can't load it to yousendit or megaupload tonight.

What the hell did you DO, Nic??? You didn't sit while you were in line? WTF?

Cool pics, Stephen! (Aside from that last one...

) Once you get home, you can Photoshop it to lighten it up a bit and the detail will be more evident too!

What was the highlight for you lucky bastards?

Claire, wasn't Miss Sarajevo totally awesome?? I was so not enthusiastic about it when I first found out it was on the setlist, but when he first sang it and did Pavvy's part, I was so won over. (Nic made fun of me because suddenly I was hoping Miss S was in every concert!)

Any happy birthdays today? No?

So what happened with getting people on stage during WOWY, Nic??

And how was Bono's drum solo? Did you have a good view of the ellipse from the stage?

And Bad! Aaahhh! Wow, I almost feel like I was there. But not.

Stephen, have you listened to the audio yet? How's the quality?

#4945

Nic, Claire AND Stephen AND Anjilly's concert is over!

Posted: 11/22/05 at 2:00am

I think it's pretty okay. I listened to a snippet through head phones. When I pull it off I'll track it and clean it up as best I can.

It's tough to say what my highlight was. Sunday Bloody Sunday, With Or Without You, One, Mysterious Ways and Elevation are all right up there.

Nic, Claire AND Stephen AND Anjilly's concert is over!

Posted: 11/22/05 at 2:05am

The video isn't too bad. The audio isn't great, but it's from a digital still camera.

It says it's going to take an hour to upload, so I may just wait until I get back to CA to do it.

Did they do the bull fight in Mysterious Ways? I think the bull fight was introduced at my Seattle 2 show. HOT.

And I really liked Elevation the first few times I heard it - it TOTALLY bring the energy up. Sunday Bloody Sunday is good, natch. Hey, did he miss the microphone this time when he was blind-folded?

#4948

I don't recall a bullfight.

He actually walked right to the mic. He was safe.

Okay, I am off to bed. Good night, gang.

SP78, if you read this tonight, I'll respond to your PM in the morning.

Hmmm...I'm going to have a long, rambling review, and since it's close to the next page, I'd rather get onto the next page before I type it, because it'll be a pain in the ass to read w/ Stephen's lovely pix!!

I wish I had your camera with me on the floor!

ETA: The pix totally weren't big enough for it to be a scrolling problem. So, I'd just like to say (hours later) that this post was pretty useless!
