in a little while...

taken from happy scott's flickr page...

look...
the show was absolutely fantastic.
i loved the entire day thouroughly and immensely.

charles didn't go. that was the only draw back. we got new tires on the fox b/c i got the bejezuz scared out of me w/ balled tires in snow. cashflow babee. cashflow. but that's another story and this post is about how i love u2 more and more with every dose.

lets see...
:: i got what were probably considered terrible seats. but didn't mind.
:: i got beer thrown in my hair. but didn't mind.
:: some drunk guy proposed to me. but didn't mind. (i looked really good by the way)
:: i got weepy during the opener (city of blinding lights).
:: stood from start to finish.

i ended up going w/ my friend jennifer. we had a great time and pulled into columbus around 3am. we got my ticket off craig's list. which i highly endorse. worth every cent. had a wonderfully shady indian meal near gund arena beforehand and had wonderful conversation throughout.

i love that the band continues to entertain w/ the best of them but is not simply a spectator's groupie type band. there were a number of visual references to earlier stuff, and direct references within their set list (gloria made it on (!!!)). the only thing i would of wished different (other than the aforementioned presence of the most wonderful charles) would be a simular arragement for yahew. the one they played wasn't as good (imho). closing out w/ 40 took some of the sting away.

a night i won't soon forget.

my apologies for the delayed update.
