Music: Re: [u2tour] Re: Baltimore GA line

Justin,
I unfortunately won't be in Baltimore :(( but just want to say how awesome I think it is that you are so young (respectively to me, I'm 41) and that you consider U2 your favorite band. When did you first realize you liked them?
Hope you have a great show and birthday! I was just at both Anaheim shows and you are in for a real treat!
Enjoy!
Shelley

I will be there with one other friend and am looking to have a great day/night with my favorite band. There is no other place I wanna be then celebrating with the greatest band in the world. If anyone in line sees me and my friend wed love to have people to hang with and enjoy the day with.
