A U2 Thread? Good. Time for the lame joke I trot out every time U2 comes up:
Q: Bono still hasn't found what he's looking for. Why?
A: Because the streets have no names.
I will not be attending this concert, because I'm one of the nasty U2 haters that turns off the radio when they come on. However, I'm happy for the rest of you who like their music.

Addiction is right!
Now, if we can only convince Rosencrentz and GOM to go, we can have a Sandbox meet-up at the Stadium!

u2 always put on a good show. I'll be seeing them in TO later that summer.
The way people speak of the '94 Pink Floyd show? This one should reach the same level of legend.

Here's a question:
If they could play one song that they obviously aren't going to play, what would you want it to be?
For me it would be Wire, followed closely by Red Hill Mining town

Wrong genre. I got stuck between 1986 and 1992 and never moved on. Bring on the leather, feathered hair, wailing guitar ballads and Tommy Lee. I wouldn't even require the man to be dipped in Lysol before ravaging him.

I cannot stand Motley Crue...everytime I hear Vince Neil try to sing I just wanna punch someone! My (2) fave bands of all time are a toss up between Zeppelin and Sabbath!

I love Vince Neil! He's one of my secret boyfriends! I even love his less than critically acclaimed solo effort "Exposed."
That said, I adore Zeppelin. I'm not the biggest Sabbath fan, but I lurve me some Ozzy.

I interviewed Vince Neil once, over 20 years ago. I was such a phony when I was making nice and said that I liked his voice. I share Goth_Chic's view on his voice and Motley Crue in general. They are absolutely lame, almost as lame as Bon Jovi.
I adore Sabbath and Zeppelin and I will be making yet another pilgrimage to the MTS Centre to see his Ozziness again. Perhaps CitizenSourpuss will be at the Ozzy show?

Heh. I love Bon Jovi too. Go figure. I must be "that age" or something.
No, I won't be at the Ozzy show. My husband would never let me out the door to go. Apparently my musical preferences are an abomination unto the Lord or something.

Not sold out!
I guess I'm not surprised, what with some tickets going for around $275.
Tickets are still available for $75, general admission on the field. Not a bad price if you don't mind standing.

Sorry, I don't.
I would imagine it wouldn't be hard to get good seats when they go on sale.

Anyone going?
My wife is obsessed with Bono, and has been for some time. We camped outside the Burt over the last two days and met the band twice.

I'm not. But I expect 51,000 people will be there... It is anticipated it will be the largest concert ever held in Winnipeg.
