As I read these stories, I must admit I have gotten pretty angry. First off, who the heck is U2 Dave, Secondly..who cares?? The entire point of a ga line is to show up as early as you can..and hang out in the line until the gates open. That is your spot. Period. You show up and get your number. Period. You make friends, talk, sleep..whatever. You get in line. Who are these people who make these 3 day lists?? It is impossible for people to get to a place 3 days in advance and follow these independent rules. And yes..I am a huge fan. Have been since day one..close to 30 years ago. I see about 2-4 concerts per tour. What ever happened to "old school" lines. Lines where people showed up..spend the day (or the night before) in the rain..the heat.. etc..to EARN THEIR SPOT?? That is half the fun. If I ran into someone who "nominated" them self to be a line manager 3 days in advance..make "check in rules" and so forth..I would laugh
in their face. These people are nothing but bullies who have seen upwards to 20 shows and think them self to be the ultimate fan. Guess what?? You aren't. I spent the night on cement during Elevation and Vertigo tours. Yes i signed a sheet and got a number from some yahoo fan. Difference was...we STAYED IN LINE. I would be FURIOUS if I were in line all night to only have 200 people come the next day and "check in" in front of me. WTH?? I usually don't post..but I had to. Enough is enough. Not at all what the band is about. Not what the fans are supposed to be about. Peace!
