U2 - 360° Tour (feat. Jay-Z)

For the husband's birthday I bought tix to the U2 concert and fully cemented my title of 'Bestest Wife EVER'!

The husband was so enthusiastic he wanted to line up at 9:00am even though U2 were only performing at 8:30pm. Finally he agreed to go at 3:00pm instead.

We rush to Gate 8 where we were told that Gate 24 was taking the first 3000 people into the inner circle. The excitement level rose significantly at the thought of being in this special section normally costing more than $300 per person. But unfortunately we just missed out. As we entered the stadium all disappointment left us as we saw 'The Claw' and hurried for the best standing position. We managed to get prime positions front and centre right up against the barrier of the 360° stage, which actually worked out in our favour as we didn't have to crane our neck to see the performance. And Bono was literally 2 metres away and we could see every fibre of him and every strand of hair and bead of sweat.



It was an awesome night and I can't go on enough about how great it really was.
