U2 are at the top of their game. Sheer brilliance! I've seen 10 Sphere shows and I could see 10 zillion more. Thank you,
@U2
. Thank you for the music, and for bringing us all together. I've made so many friends in this community! Thank you for giving us hope, and shining a light.
I didn't take many photos tonight because I wanted to be super present during my one time chance at front rail but I like how this one came out

Hi, I'm Melissa. Welcome to the post

support group.
I don't want to get out of bed today. I just want to scroll through all my U2 pics and videos.
How are you coping?
Being a
@U2
fan of over 30 years you learn to block out the haters and bad takes in the press. For example, Pop is still one of my favorite albums. Who cares what anyone else thinks? If you can feel it in your heart you know it's authentic
@U2
. I cried on the first listen! 🙌❣️
What decade is your favorite
@U2
era?
In the 90s I was staunchly an 80s U2 fan because War was my all time favorite album.
However, looking back now I realize that I actually play 90s U2 more than anything else: Achtung Baby, Zooropa, and Pop get the most love!
What about you?
Dallas was handing out pics last night and ran out right before he got to me (which is fine, I have 2, I'm good) but instead I wanted a photo with him so I asked. He replied, "Sure! No one ever asks for a photo with me." 😭💚
I loved seeing Dave rock out. Back in the early 90s Nirvana was my second favorite band after U2. (After Kurt died I couldn't listen to them for a very long time.) My inner teenager was freaking out seeing him up there. 🥰
Having been in GA for opening night, the 100s for second night, & now 300s for tonight, I can safely say that the visuals are definitely better in the 300s. However, I will always be a GA girl. I missed being in the pit & close to the band, but I did very much enjoy the screens.
Last night I had GA, tonight I had section 107 & I gotta say it's a really different show from the seats. Amazing to see all the imagery on the screens & stage. I highly recommend getting seats at least once. Another brilliant show!

Last night was everything I hoped it would be. I was dead center floor Bono 1-2 people from the rail, surrounded by very cool, friendly fans, and got so much Bono eye contact I could melt.
Tonight I'll be chilling in Red Zone giving back to humanity and comfortably enjoying the

Yes, yes that's me. 😆🙌
Thank you,

My 4th U2 UV show at the Sphere and my 88th (I think) overall U2 concert and all I want to do is go again! 👏

Listen, I know we're all upset about Larry but can we not judge
@U2
fans for going to these shows? Can we not use terms like "real fans won't attend?" I plan on going to support my favorite band since the 80s. I'm not going to bail on them now bc they had to make a hard decision.
I want to go back to the Sphere.
I feel like we all experienced a collective moment in an alternate universe. Like a dream half remembered in technicolor.
Also, I think I need those purple Fly glasses, damn it.

One year ago, I made the trek to NYC to see Bono at the Beacon Theatre. I was full of heartbreak bc that was after my book had been cancelled and I was desperately seeking anything to fill my soul and raise me up out of a pit of despair.
Bono delivered.
Fast forward to this
Listen: the sphere is cute. The screen, impressive. Bono’s shoulders in

make me swoon. But the truth? I am here to see this genius, this incomparable, beautiful man, who does what no one else can do. Last night was a complete dream. So grateful ❤️

Drama on the front rail tonight. Tension is high. I tried to diffuse it & ended up bawling my eyes out. Regardless, this is my first (& most likely only) time on the front rail. (If the lady who was here is reading this, I'm holding your spot for you if you want to come back.)
I'm confirmed so now I feel safe to share this... I'M GOING TO THE APOLLO!!! I'm so freaking excited!! I can't believe it! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Thank you so much
@U2

Back on my BS! 😆 Ready for GA again! Not doing rail this time, tho. Just wanna hang back and dance the night away. Charging now so hopefully good to go for Mixlr tonight!

I just talked to someone who works for SiriusXM and he said that they took all of the floor seats out of the Apollo and opened it up as full GA. He said he's worked 5 or 6 shows there and this is the first time they've done that.

I'm on the way to the airport fighting back tears. I've had an incredibly difficult couple of years for a variety of reasons. My heart was torn asunder many times over. But last night I was the happiest I've ever been. Thank you so much,

I can't even begin to describe what this audio does to me. The love, the nostalgia, the joy. Zoo TV was my 1st

Rumor has it Sphere Entertainment offered U2 a huge amount of money to do more shows at the new venue (possibly as many as 35) but Bono declined.
The band's residency is set to end on March 2nd.
I'm posting this so I don't lose it but... Remember when I was looking for 12/1 Vertigo videos to find when Bono pointed at me? Well, I had a funny feeling and looked on YouTube again. Found it! I wish I could highlight myself with a red circle but I'm jumping and pointing. 😆
I fell down a rabbit hole of live
@U2
on YouTube and found a video I hadn't ever seen before. "Get On Your Boots" live from Somerville Theater, Boston. I was so bummed I didn't get to go to that show. But based on this performance it was probably a good thing, cuz if I saw this
I wish I could have posted a photo from my spot tonight. I was third row center and let me tell you it was worth every penny. So much eye contact!! Best night ever. Sláinte from Dublin House!

Having a super hard time coming back to reality today. I have to start prep work on a class I'm teaching this week but I cannot focus. I just lectured my non-U2 husband on why 11/3 was such a significant show and how lucky I was to experience it and be able to share it with you.
