Read MoreHey GA Line Leader…
Hitler, Stalin, GA Line Leaders…which dictator is/was worse? So, I’m going to U2 in two days and it will be my first time going GA. My nutty U2 friends talked me into it, even though I have no intention of standing one second in the GA line. I’ve already blogged about why I have no […]

Remember those first few shows, when the Ramones’ “Beat on the Brat” signaled that U2 was about to make their entrance? (To be precise, it was four.

Read MoreU2 Fan Meet Ups…WTF?
Do people take the U2 fan meet ups, seriously? I mean, we’re having our meet up in less than two weeks and through a few PM’s, DM’s and a few smoke signals, it seems I may have misjudged fan expectations at these things. The few people that know me, know that I am already the […]
Read MoreWhat U2 Fan Class Are You?
One of my teenagers is addicted to Buzzfeed quizzes – the ones that are so pointless they can’t possibly be good for society, but are also so thoughtfully niche that it’s actually hard to label them as stupid. They run the gamut from “Test Your Knowledge of Lesser-Known Disney Villains” to “What Do Your Favorite […]
