U2 concert

WOW!! this week i found out that i was going to the U2 concert this Tuesday. man...it took me by surprise!! My uncle bought me the tickets as a christmas present...but i found out today that it wasn't a christmas present it was just becasue he wanted to take me. that was awesome!! there isn't words to describe how great it was. the opening act was Damian Marley...he was good if you like raggae. when he finished there was a sigh of relief that the concert was about to start....but you have to give the man props cause he had the balls to keep a bunch of 40-year olds waiting to see their favorite band. there was an hour from 8 to 9 when they did the sound check which made me more anxious to see them! Finally the concert started! they opened with city of blinding lights...it was exactly like the music video except that you are actually there! that was amazing! A couple of songs into the concert we hear 2 songs from boy....electric co. and the ocean. right before miracle drug we find out that edge is from the future and when he gets off his space ship he hears the first notes of the song....and U2 gets right it and plays. in the middle of bullet in the blue sky bono changes the lyrics to "the ants go marching one by one"...which sounded almost sinister but very sexy! When we got into Miss Sarajevo bono hit the big tenor notes in replace of Pavarotti and the crowd went wild!! The concert ended at 10:30....but who can stop there without any encores? the whole concert was dedicated to the 44-year old birthday boy, Larry (who apparently gets all the fat chicks according to bono). So after with or without you we all song happy birthday to larry. At one point in between encores the band goes off and comes back with "the larry mullen band" t-shirts. Bono invited 2 girls to dance with him on stage during the concert...and an all girl band name EXIT to come up during the encores and perform for us. they sang out of control and were pretty darn good except the lead singer was a bit off. U2 then started playing fast cars...which was a song that has "never been heard"...even though i knew all the words. the concert ended with 40. the band members left the stage but larry....as the audience continues to sing "how long to sing this song" larry walks over to the mic and says "Thanks for coming to my birthday party. You can leave your gifts at the door. I’d like to thank Bono, Edge and Adam for being in my backing band" it was a really good concert...but what i hated was that the guy sitting next to me would stare at me from time to time watching me sing. oh and when we were standing in line waiting to buy t-shirts there was a guy who took at least 20 minutes picking out buttons!! when he left we all clapped and he had the "wtf look" on his face! when we walked out to the car there was a man selling cheap nock off t-shirts saying "get them before the police do" [emphasis on police]. i think i'll remember that and the concert forever!!
