Re: [u2tour] view the COMPLETE Pittsburgh show from last summer

Yes, actually, better than Zeppelin. Though I have so many stories! I saw Zeppelin four times. When I was in high school, there was no way for me to get to concerts, as I lived 65 miles north of Pittsburgh. So I would charter a bus and sell the seats to other kids my age. In the 60s and 70s, kids did not have cars!
One of the girls who rode the bus managed to get onstage and hug Robert Plant from the back, promptly getting arrested. I didn't know how to handle that one! Her younger brother said, forget it, let her butt stay the night in jail, and their parents would have to come get her the next day! I took buses to Three Dog Night, James Taylor, Jethro Tull, The Who and The Doors. Then I graduated from high school and those days were gone forever.

I am so grateful. The day after the Pittsburgh show I went online and printed the set list. Thought that would be the memory I would have. Glorious to be able to watch again and again.

The one thing I have learned is that, unlike some people, the live concert experience never pales for me. I've seen Dave Matthews live 104 times!
