I've been searching that video for a zillion times to find myself, because when those people come running into the circle and party because they made it, I'm behind them at the "fence" in row 1 already -- makes me bite my nails I can't really see myself lol same goes for the Dublin crowd...oh well, missed chances to become famous 
I ended up sitting in the queue at a point where there was a coke and water seller right across the street....bless him he saved my life.... even though he made a fortune with my desperate attempts to not die from dehydration in that Spanish heat 
....... Lovely, lovely Madrid Originally posted by germcevoy:It was too hot for me that day. Just was not prepared for it. I was in bad shape when i got outside. Had to lie down for a while and ended up vomiting. Ended up sleeping for most of the next day

I remember a couple that had been standing next to me inside the circle for hours... and at some point, she got ash pale and started to sway, and her boyfriend/husband called for the medics and they brought her out of the GA.... that was no more than half an hour before U2 came on stage. I felt so sorry for her, the whole day queueing in the heat and then she missed the concert 
Barcelona was already too hot for me. We have 35 and more degrees here as well in the summer, but the humidity is different. If I had to chose between the heat of Spain and the rain of Ireland....the latter means less life danger for me
