  1. Great show!! I was in the middle of the oval on the outside rail. Wasn’t my luck to make it inside. The young lady in the clip above went on to start dancing by herself and then got down on all fours, shaking her ….The best moment of all of this was Larry’s expressions. After the song ended he was laughinig at Bono and pointing one of his drumstick’s at him. Bono was in front of the drum kit with his back to the audience and said something to Larry. Really – Larry’s expressions were priceless. The young lady who chased Bono was escorted off stage and then escorted up the stairs by red coated security guards. Really quite the moment.

    As far as the rest of the show it was really special to hear the Boy material. Sounds great. Musically the band the sounds better then ever and Bono’s voice being more mature gives the songs a better sound overall. I think the songs have aged quite well. I wish they would record the whole album over today!!! Wouldn’t that be somenthing!!! The crowd was a little quiet I thought. It seemed like the Elevation Tour had people singing much louder – but the difference could be the material is new, and the new songs have a lot of words which is impossible to keep up with. When they played the older songs they had different arrangements and the crowd couldn’t quite keep the singing with Bono. My favorite new arrangement was Elevation. Very different from the Eleveation tour. The only downside to this day was the incredibly high heat we had to wait in. I was number 23 in the fan GA line and I got there at 12:30 pm. It was 95 (F) and just hot hot hot waiting in line on cement next to the wall of the Staples Center. I couldn’t believe how wilted I felt by 6:15 when they let us in. However, all of it vanished as the first chords of City of Blinding lights started.

  3. I think she intruded on the other woman’s special moment. She wrote a message on the one of the U2 mailing lists on Yahoo! groups and it was clear she was intruding and doing it for her own benefit… she is apparently a model and this is her site http://www.dazza.com. It was not a very nice thing to do !

  5. The second woman intruded. She literally threw herself up on stage. I saw her as she belly flopped on the ramp. I don’t know how she made it passed the inital barrier because I was watching Bono dance and sing to the woman he actually pulled up on stage. Anyway, the second woman managed to get herself up on the ramp and ran after them as you see on the clip. As Bono said – “This is LA!”

  7. I am a huge U2 and Dazza Fan!!! I am writing in to support Dazza, she had the balls (well, maybe the boobs) to do what we all wish we could do when we finally meet that Star we have a crush on….I love U2 and saw them with my other favorite band, Los Lobos in Indianapolis, WHAT A GREAT SHOW!!!! I have met Dazza at several Low Rider shows and she is always SWEET and gives her fans lots of love, so please don’t be a Player Hater and write rude things about her just cause she jumped on stage….when you finally see that Star ya love, something comes over you and you don’t act rational, that’s what being a FAN means, short for FANATIC…..at least now she knows how I feel when I see her!!! Dazza’s Number One Fan!!!!!!!!!! Luis
