- Like a Song: Gone February 8, 2012[Ed. note: This is the 64th in a series of personal essays by the @U2 staff about songs and/or albums that have had great meaning or impact in our lives.] I like the Pop album. There, I said it. I know I’m in the minority, but I think it’s a solid record that has been underrated ever since its release 15 years ago. It’s not a perfect album, […]

The last tour, tickets sold out within half an hour — and an hour after that, they were being resold on Ebay for despicable amounts. I missed out (no way was I going to sit in the nose-bleeds), and the Popmart tour I was too ill. *sigh* 1993, it’s been a looong time. If anyone can give me a tip how to get good seats, I’m all ears! It’ll be hard getting tix at 9am, I work for fascists (hrmm, I might be sick that day).
Rico – try a pre-sale.. sign up for a membership for U2.com ($50), or ticketek.com (free), or michael coppel presents (free), or live nation australia (free) and you should be able to get your hands on some tickets before they go on sale to the general public!
Ah, forgot about Live Nation, cheers Leprechaun! Vorsprung durch tchnik!
