    Oh ok. I see it now. "Zooropa" is such an underrated album. The first half of that album is one of my favorites of all-time.

    haha, some of us will be there in NJ/NY too, but I don't think I am doing the all-day line up. I am too old for that crap. Actually at least one of our group is doing the bus from NY early Thursday too.

    1 week till the sole NJ/NY area appearance.
    I hope a certain Mr Springsteen makes a cameo that night,
    and i hope they do a song or two
    honoring the man , the myth, & the Legendary E - Street Band .
    For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
    That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive

    if they get kicked out, they will just go somewhere as close as they can to the stadium. and there is no guarantee that others will honor what they started.

    you are getting there around 9am? You should be fine. and the show is fantastic no matter where you are.
