In 2005 I received my tickets for Belgium 2 weeks before showtime

I did the auction for the Red Zone for the New Meadowlands show. Any idea how that works? How many are there? Where do I end up if I don't get into the Red Zone?

Anyone have experience with these auctions before?

This might belong in another thread. And what happened to days where you buy a GA ticket and then waited in line early to get into inner circle area. That's what I had to do in Providence, RI in 2001.

Thanks,
Matt

if you get them you are in the actual red zone on the side of the stage. GA is green and you are in the red area on the right and left of stage

So today i was going to school and was supposed to be an average friday i guess, i was going to give my friend the money for our U2 tickets that go on sale next monday. But during Weight Training in the lockerroom at school my wallet gets stolen and i lose everything i have in there, Id's all 70 dollars that i saved up for my ticket.

Like really, how can someone just steal someones wallet when they are not looking. So i dont know what im supposed to do... the school cant really do shit so i dont expect to get the money or wallet or ID's back. All my movie ticket and concert stubs are in there aswell but YET AGAIN fate seems to not let me go to a U2 show. Fuck school i bet it was someone i kind of know too since they WENT THROUGH MY JEANS to get to it. People can be such assholes.

oh no

I'm really really sorry this happened to you, Genaro! some people have no respect for other people's things - it's beyond disgusting they searched your stuff to steal the money from you

isn't there any way a friend or someone of your family might lend you the money for the ticket for next week, so you can finally get to a show?

Yes my friend said hes going to like pay my ticket

But its still stupid how someone would just do that -_-. Ahh well i have to start over so i can pay my friend back so i guess its all good.

Thanks guys for the support, i had all my IDs and stuff and ticket stubs, etc in there. I have to 'begin again'.

I have emailed the Belgian ticket agency to find out when tickets will be posted

(I don't think I've posted anything about this yet- sorry if I have.)

Alright, so I need some thoughts on this...I'm starting to freak out a little bit about the Michigan State show info not going up/wondering if I'll be able to get GA's...I'd think that GA's will stick around a little while longer for this show, since it's the last to go on sale/it's kind of an out-of-the-way show (since everyone in the region will probably try to go to Chicago)...so I was just wondering what y'all think- if I wait until the general sale to try and get GA's, will there be any left? or would it make that much of a difference to get the U2.com membership, given that I'd be in the last (Boots) pre-sale? If I don't get GA's, I'm probably not going to bother going to the show (unless they release the new album before then, wind up playing a lot of it, and I can pick up a cheap ticket somewhere and not do GA...).
