To be honest I expected more from the second show in New Jersey, as historically the second show in the same city has been much better than the first. Case in point, Chicago2 was worlds better than Chicago1. But it is a U2 show, so of course it was great, but I was really hoping for “A Sort [continue reading]
Larry loves New York (and New Jersey)! He and the rest of U2 seemed to be having a lot of fun last night at MetLife Stadium. It was a great show with the same set list as the previous show in Boston. This was the start of my five day, 1000 mile, six state, 4 concert road trip to end this first US [continue reading]
On October 28, 2001, U2’s Elevation Tour returned back to the Continental Airlines Arena where it had played two shows to end the first leg of the tour in June. Tasha, Paola and I drove to Jersey the night before, as soon as the third New York City show finished. We got our numbers in the GA [continue reading]
DAYS 66&67 – JULY 18&19 After the horrible days I had driving from Miami to Nashville in one day and Philadelphia to St. Louis in one, I decided to break up the drive from St. Louis to New Jersey into 2 days. I left St. Louis around noon the day after the fantastic U2 show in St. [continue reading]
The U2 360 show in New Jersey was good, but it ended great with Out of Control when Larry asked Bono if they should play one more. U2 also played both The Fly and Magnificent, so we got 2 extra songs in Jersey and Edge came out to greet the fans before the show. Please watch my video of an overview [continue reading]
I left St. Louis around noon the day after the fantastic U2 show in St. Louis. In fact it was so fantastic that I didn’t get much sleep, so I only drove about 350 miles to Dayton, Ohio. I originally wanted to make it to Columbus, which was only about another hour, but I just couldn’t do [continue reading]
Tuesday May 17, 2005 East Rutherford, NJ I left Philadelphia the morning after the U2 show and drove to Asbury Park, for the Lisa Marie Presley concert at the Stone Pony on Sunday May 16th – her last of the tour. It was amazing! I stood up front right at the rail at the stage. Priscilla was [continue reading]
October 28, 2001 East Rutherford, New Jersey Tasha, Paola and I went to the Continental Airlines Arena right after the New York 3 show. This was to be Paola’s first GA show.

Saturday June 23, 2001 East Rutherford, NJ The first leg of the Elevation tour is over, and I am very sad. I drove up to New Jersey around 6:30pm Wednesday night and met Tasha at the hotel around 10pm. We got up early Thursday morning and were in the GA line at Continental Airlines Arena by 6:15am.
