    Finally going for my first U2 show this December in Perth! I've never spent 300 bucks on a single seat before, so this better be worth it!

    MADRID – Barcelona city hall says rock band U2 has paid a fine of (EURO)18,000 ($22,000) for playing too long and too loudly during rehearsals in the Spanish city last year.

    A spokeswoman said the Irish group was penalized for rehearsing until midnight -- two hours over the scheduled time -- and at sound levels above those set by authorities prior to a concert in Barcelona in June 2009.

    The fine followed a complaint by residents near Barcelona soccer club's Camp Nou stadium, where the concert was staged.

    The spokeswoman said the city was now studying fining Colombian singer Shakira for recording a video in the city without a permit, dancing in a fountain and riding a motorbike without a helmet.

    The official was speaking on condition of anonymity in keeping with city hall policy.

    U2 ROCK!!! I just got back from their show in Athens. It was amazing! No surprise that they're one of the top bands for so many years...
    I am mine!
  • I have officially came to conclusion that no line on the horizon shits on the other two albums U2 came out in the 2000's. Its probably my 3rd favorite album of all the ones I have.

    I would totally be down to see them live. Too bad their tix are so damn expensive.

    I don't think they're that expensive, compared to many other acts. GA's are $55 (and some nosebleeds are $30). Yes, there are also $95 and $250 tix, but no-one's forcing you to buy those.

    I got GA tickets for $55 each and walked right up to front of the outer stage ring center/dead. Very nice and had a fun evening even though I broke my phone.

    after getting settled in , you might want to have purchased those better seats after you're all the way up in the nosebleeds.

    The Spider Man broadway production is all the news here in NYC.
    Its the most expecsive Broadway Production ever produced,
    and includes flying over the crowd and all kinds of special effects.
    I will have to go check this out , even if I purchase only 1 ticket .
