  1. At what song did Bono mention Adams wife expecting a child?
  2. Yep
  3. Adam just shook his head a couple of times as if 'I can't believe you just announced that' lol.
  4. What a show. Still absolutely buzzing from it.
  5. Yeah he looked quite displeased I have to say but even more interesting was Bono's face when he turned back to the crowd after Adam had shook his head, Bono's expression was like oh shit, I shouldn't have done that. They kissed and made up pretty quickly though as all good best mates do, a rare slip up from Bono but probably only did it as he's just bursting with happiness for Adam.
  6. Yeah that's a pretty nice custom design!

    The quality of the official ones has gone up again for sure - 2 of 3 I got I've noticed are Edun ones which are noticeably better quality and of course, a highly ethical purchase as well. I didn't get any from I+E, but the Wembley / Hampden 2009 360 t-shirts are two of the poorest quality concert t-shirts I've ever bought, flimsy, and just noticeably poor quality, my Popmart tour t-shirts have lasted better than the 360 ones.

    Never managed to get any U2 Start ones ordered before the show, but I really like those, so am hoping to place an order soon ish.

    Yeah my 360 tour shirt is also bad quality, my I+E one is great!

    Haha yeah same, still cream crackered myself, I should be getting some work done today, but gonna have another recovery day and chill with some bootlegs

    I had 4 sheets of printouts on me on Sat / Sun of tube / nightbus options if I missed it back to Waterloo, buses to Gunnersbury from Twickenham and whatnot, all looked pretty confusing and ideally not what you want to be working out after having been on your feet for 18+ hours O.o And I think Sunday night would have required like 4 or 5 different changes to get back to the hotel, if I missed the Waterloo train.

    In the end I got to Waterloo ok, and then binned said printouts and succombed to a taxi back from Waterloo, as I just couldn't be bothered trying to figure any of the printouts out - despite having spent hours acquiring all the info from the TFL website lol. So yeah dipped into the emergency funds and a taxi back, 90 min queue for one on Saturday back to Tower Hill where I was at. But yeah all good spirits, full of U2 fans all the way, plenty of good banter, didn't see one flare up from anyone all weekend. As tedious as the travelling and queuing can be, I suppose at the end of the day it's all part of the adventure and the memories you'll have in years to come.[/q

    Getting back from Twix is always a pain. same as in 2005.

    On Saturday I used car from Essex to Tower Hill then public transport and it took 3 hours each way !

    On Sunday I used car all the way and it tool about 2.5 hours each way.

    I can actually get to Paris quicker than I can from Essex to Twickenham.
