Ah, so U2 was quite fun (of course). A very entertaining band who has a good collection of songs. I did have my hopes WAY up, so I think they had a hard time living up to that, but Bono came up to me after the show and told me that it wasn't his best night because he was thinking about the kids in Africa so much that he forgot how to be a rock star. I guess it's hard to juggle the two sides of the coin.
Um, sorry about that. I do applaud all the good work Bono has done for Africa and really do hope that he makes poverty history.
So the opening bands were Idlewild (who I didn't know but were pretty good in an REM sorta way) and Ash (who I know and like a lot and was happy about). Twickenham is a massive rugby stadium and was really a great place to see a big band. We were in the standing area around the stage so you could see really well. Not sure I'd want the ones way high up though.
Ok, tip for any apartment living people: Don't lock yourself out of your flat when your roommate, landlord (her sister), and owner (her dad) are all on a plane to Italy. Makes for a tough (and expensive) Saturday waiting for the locksmith to show up.
Cheers!
