A New U2 Album Is On The Horizon

So there's a new U2 album coming out very soon. VERY SOON. It's called No Line on the Horizon and it's out in the first few days of March. Now this is awesome news in itself. But then I think about what this news lends itself to.



A tour. You see, I've had really bad luck when it comes to seeing U2 live and to this day...I haven't been able to see them. The worst of all was the last tour when I stashed enough money to buy tickets to more than one show as I wanted to see them a few times while they were in Southern California. The story was big in the media. Hackers and scalpers more or less defrauded the fans by crashing the Ticketmaster system anbd buying all the tickets within mere moments. Though I was at Ticketmaster the very MOMENT they went on sale, I was shown a "sold out" message. It was a punch in the gut.

That's not going to happen this time. I refuse to let it happen. When they tour this time I'm hoping to catch a couple of shows, presuming they play in San Francisco AND Sacramento. I told my brother, David, I'd take him to one of the shows because he's never truly been to a big concert. He's been to smaller things, radio station events, etc. But he's never been to an arena rock type of event. And I wanna be there with him when he sees one.

That's all
