That is all

Great! Airfare to Vegas!!! Wait . . . .

There is another contest on facebook.
I almost entered this one but then I saw that the prize value for tax purposes is claimed to be $6800. That seems like a lot given airfares and hotels for Vegas. I'll do without the additional tax bill as much as I'd want to win.

And you can enter every day between now and I think Oct. 1, once a day.

Is anyone going to this show even if you don't win?

My best friend in Chicago went to see them last night, the second night of the US tour. He said it was AMAZING.

They played "Your Blue Room" from the Passengers soundtrack for the first time ever. On the flip side, I am told it was the first show since 2001 that they omitted Pride from the set list.

There are reports that it began to snow near the end of the concert. Though it was cold, my friend assures me that this was manufactured by the band.

Oh, forgot to mention:

They played a snippet of King of Pain (as well as Blackbird) during Beautiful Day.

I am really getting psyched for The Rose Bowl. I can't beleve it has been almost 17 years to the day that I saw them last(October 30th and 31st Dodger Stadium 1992, Zoo TV Outside Broadcast).
And 26 years since I first saw them
Any LA nutters coming?
EQ, any Vegas nutters heading out?

I remember ’92, all day in LA it rained off and on. When we got to Dodger Stadium the seats were wet. Then as it got dark the clouds parted it was a beautiful night, the show got underway. During the acoustic set when the band came down to where a small stage was set up at second base Bono started signing a few bars of “It’s never gonna rain in Southern California”…
Needless to say the place erupted.
