    Want to keep watching but don't want to ruin the live show

    I watched about 30 seconds then bailed out. Want to keep it new for Friday.

    I have a paperless ticket for Saturday but cannot go due to unexpected other commitments, does anyone know if it is at all possible to transfer to another date? I am really desperate to see them and I don't want to have spent 80 quid in vain. Thanks.

    For standing tickets you need the CC you used to buy the tickets to get in.
    My standing tickets are Paperless, how do i gain entry to the event? Good question!

    The delivery option chosen when purchasing your tickets was Paperless Tickets, please read the following information carefully as it contains important information with regards to gaining access to the event on the night. .

    You have not / will not receive any physical ticket for this event. The credit/debit card used to purchase your tickets will be swiped at the venue and this will gain you entry to the event. Please go directly into the 3Arena as normal – your card is swiped at the scanned entry points.

    You (the card holder) and your all of your guests (anyone else entering on your booking) must be present at the same time and enter the venue together. There are no exceptions to this.

    If there is an issue with swiping your credit/debit card at the door, assistance will be provided at the box office. You MUST print your confirmation email and bring it with you on the night in the event that you require assistance at the box office.

    To reiterate: You will not gain entry to the event if you do not bring the credit/debit card used to make the purchase.

    I saw the show in london. It was amazing. But for some reason im just buzzing all week about the 2 shows on friday and saturday. Maybe cause i was so close to not being able to go. Looks like i will be at both of them now. :)

    I can vouch for Fix. He is a nutter, but a genuinely decent chap. Didn't realise how much a U2 fan he was till the other day. I even offered to bring him on a man date on Friday :)

    Was in the gym today and you could easily see who was heading to the U2 gigs this week. I counted 7 people watching U2 music videos on their phones while on the treadmills and crosstrainers.

    Funny sight! :)

    Looking at some of the prices people paid (as in face value) for platnium tickets.

    Some of them are just ordinary tickets - a bit of a joke - 700 euro , 800 euro

    so when they are selling them on - a major problem.

    Ridiculous prices. Major fan and all as I am, I would never pay those kind of
    prices

    That was highly enjoyable. I Will Follow was terrific, havent seen them do that since Slane but love that song.

    Streets is still one of the best live songs around by anyone

    They switch between Electric Co, Out Of Control and Gloria every night.....So, it's either OOC or Gloria tomorrow.

    Was mad to hear Electric Co

    I think 40 is the best song to finish. I love the crowd singing "how long, to sing this song" to get them back for encore. Just never happens anymore though :(

    Was there a rumour of an outdoor stadium leg next year to roll in with songs of experience release?

    I went hoping they'd play it. They played it early, everything else was just gravy.

    So deadly reading people's posts and no mindless u2 hate bollix and it just being people enjoying and celebrating the music.

    They're a great band and nobody does this like them.
