Pre-ticket sales will/went on sale today at 10:00 a.m. within the city it is located. I'm totally frustrated because the only link that is not accessible for the presale sale is AZ. :cry: I've called Ticketmaster & the Glendale Arena but everyone is clueless. Being a dedicated U2 fan, I am freaking out and will not be able to rest well until my ticket purchase is complete. :(

Are you kidding...BEST BAND EVER!!!
I am a U2.com member, and will buy tickets in 5 min. The only part that sucks is that I can't buy more than 2.
Been to at least 1 show since The Unforgettable Fire, got the U2 iPod for x-mas and downloaded the entire library that day.
CAN'T WAIT!!!

I still enjoy U2, but Bono still thiks he is gods gift to women. Sure, he can land more tail than any of us on a given year in his one day, but he looks like such a tool promoting that image. I cant wait to see him killing himself when he reaches 50!

Typically, some of the very best tickets you can buy for a U2 concert are the General Admission tickets and they sell for $49.50. These are the best seats in the house....although you typically don't get a seat....but you get to stand right by the stage!!! :eek: Bono uaully grabs someone out of the audience and pulls them up on stage and sings to them.....I'm hoping it's ME this year!!! :D

These are the 3 areas that you cannot buy tickets for ....yet, but are on the tour schedule.
4/14/2005 TBD Glendale Arena Phoenix, AZ Coming Soon
4/24/2005 TBD Key Arena Seattle, WA Coming Soon
4/28/2005 TBD General Motors Place Vancouver, BC Coming Soon
This is why I'm so frustrated! I have no idea when the tickets will go on sale for these locations...but I am constantly refreshing my browser in hopes that the link will mysteriously appear! :notam:

I don't remember what store it was but back in the day you could buy tickets at places like Sears and Robinsons-May. No lines, easy to deal with and always got good seats.
Haven't been to a concert in a few years so I don't know if its even an option anymore.
Forensic
The internet is the only & best way to buy tickets now a days. Standing in line at a TicketMaster location is a joke! Trust me, I've learned the hard way........as usual! :p

WAY TOO COOL!!! Sounds like you've got it as bad as I do!!! LOL!!! :D
I will attend a U2 concert anytime they have a tour....even if I have to beg, borrow and steal to get the tickets!!!
I am also a U2.com member and bummed we only get 2 tickets....but at least we get them 4 days sooner than the general public!!! :D
So what venue will you be attending? AZ? Maybe we could drive out together!!! :idea:

Sounds like your a bit "bitter" today. :idea:
OH....And yes....Bono is gods gift to women....or at least this one! He is wonderful, kind, caring man with a huge heart.
I can't imagine anyone thinking it cool to watch any other human being, "Kill Themselves" doing what they love. :lightsabe

Vancouver? :idea: THAT got my attention. :cool: I haven't been to any concerts in over 10 years. A U2 concert would be a very good reason to end that sentence. :D
