U2 Tour Dates - Now Official! — Page 78

I guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens on Sunday. Who knows, maybe I won't even be able to get a pair of $50 seats to one of the shows. Though, I think I'll be pulling a bit more for the Friday show, since it would be more convenient (since I have a class on Wednesday night) and Tiff was still kind of up in the air about being able to make it earlier any way. *sigh*

Back to work. I just grabbed a bite to eat (got a slice of pizza and some garlic knots, only to discover I had $2 in my wallet *blush* so I had to run to the ATM...of course it started to rain on the way back to pick my food up! Yep, a lovely evening alright!)

Oh, I couldn't help but post this (from craigslist)...it was simply too disgusting to resist!!!

A question for the female (only) U2 fans: I have 2 tickets I can't use, but I don't feel like SELLING them...what would you do for them?

Hottest chick (or chicks) with the best all-night proposition gets both in the morning. Think of me as the Road Manager who can get you into their dressign rooms. What's it worth to you?

Send your pic, your 'offer' and your availability for consideration

SICK, SICK, SIIIIIIICK!!!! *shudder*

Wow! I had no idea I was nominated for a BWW award (I didn't even know they were doing BWW awards!)...My, my, my.

*doffs hat to Ellie for suggesting that I remove the Bono's ass avatar* You deserve some credit for my nod! ...though I have a sneaking suspicion that Tiff will walk away w/ that one!

Just got back from a little writing awards ceremony (yay for free food and a gift certificate to B&N!!!)

Ummm, I just did Piazza last Thursday. I think I bought mine at like 6:30 or so (maybe closer to 6:45, because my friend who's no longer a student, but still has her student ID slipped up and said she wasn't a full time student, so we had to run around finding a Juilliard student who'd help us). The pair we got were on the far right section right on the aisle about 5 rows back (great seats) so I wouldn't think a Wed. mat would be that bad for getting tix a little after they go on sale. I'm not sure about Chitty, but it is a HUGE theatre, so I would think you'd probably be fine for that too on a matinee (unless they bring in huge groups of kiddies, in which case it might be a little tighter???)

Oooooh!!! I'm jealous of your U2 ipod! My parents just bought me the 30 gig Dell as an early birthday/end of the school year gift. I guess it just arrived at home today, but they have to pick it up at UPS Thursday on their way to NYC, since there was no one to sign for it.

Re: Piazza...I actually really liked it, even though it's not really "my type of show." I tend to want to puke w/ an excess of soprano-y singing, but I actually thought it was a really great show. The cast is great, and the production values (set/costumes, etc) were fabulous! Besides, it's bound to be nominated for a bunch of awards, so if DRS falls through, I'd say it's worth seeing for that reason alone.

Gotta run to class. Talk to you later!

---

Glad you had a great time...I can't wait to see DRS! Why are the ladies hard to get? They just don't come out, or they snub their fans?

And hurrah for your U2 iPod!

*covers eyes*

Damn you NYC dwellers!

*bumps into wall*

Yeah, I could see his hair bopping down the street, and was like "OMG! It's Adam Duritz from Counting Crows!!!" and my friend was like "Where?!?"..."Just look for the hair!" He was wearing his "traditional opening garb" of a flowery shirt and tie (I think they were maroon). Shoulda said something. Damn! I said to myself, "hmmm, what's opening tonight?" Lo and behold, it's Charity, so keep your eyes peeled for him in the photo ops tomorrow!

Elphie, I just read a rumor that U2 may make an appearance at a Romones tribute on the 19th at Irving Plaza...not sure what the deal is w/ tix (I'm sure they're already sold out). Might be worth keeping an eye peeled though!

---

Just any old lady?...Ellie, I'm disappointed in you, you liar! I'm having doubts you even scored tix for October!

I don't think I'll have a chance to try for Spelling Bee again until I come back in the fall (or if I make a weekend trip to the city sometime this summer). Hmmm...maybe the Saturday mat?? Dunno. The folks and I are supposed to run around checking out some apartments, so I don't know if that'd be in the cards afterall...I'm leaving sometime Sunday, btw.

I really need to write this essay! But I'm just not in the mood to compare/contrast Buddhism and existentialism!

---

I've loved my Beats, Bongos, and Buddhims class, and this is just not the way I want to end it!!! Blech!

Elphie, I don't know if you like The Ramones, but if you do, tix are still available...might be worth checking out (should the lads make an appearance!)
Tix

Oh, that's great about a Saturday show being added for McCartney! When do tickets go on sale for that again? Good luck!

I'm not really a Ramones fan and I don't really feel like blowing off $25 for another concert just for a possibility of seeing U2 when I'll be seeing them 2 days later, but thanks for the tip, mabel, I really appreciate it. It does tempt me.
I'm still hoping for them to do some surprise concert on the day of the GMA taping; the last thing I heard was a small performance on May 20th outside ABC studios (posted on Interference).

Good luck to both of ya on all your work, I know you must be swamped. Mabel, beats, bongos, and buddhisms sounds very interesting! Sorry the paper isn't too much fun.

TIFF!!!
How's Europe? Where are you? Met any hot European guys?
ETA: Never mind, I saw your post on the other thread so I'm caught up!
