Making your way through the crowds - Get the most out of your U2 tickets

Even though U2 have been going for more than thirty years they are still pulling in the crowds today. If you've ever been to one of their concerts, you'll know how jam packed they get and how difficult it is trying to get about. Of course, part of the whole idea about going to a U2 performance or any other live rock gig, is jumping about and getting involved. When nature calls though, getting through the massive crowds singing along to New Year's Day or Pride can be a nightmare. Anyone into playing chess may think of the arena as being one huge chessboard, waiting for their opponent to make a move first before deciding to see the best way for themselves to go.


Getting hold of U2 tickets which are usually like gold dust to see one of the world's most popular rock groups makes any minor hardship seem insignificant. Making a diagonal move through the hyped up crowd to get back to your friends belting out the popular tune, where the 'Streets have no name', can be an arduous task. There aren't likely to be any Catholic Bishops attending any of their concerts even though for a long time many of U2's songs did have a Christian undertone to their meaning. The amount of young but mostly older crowd still get into the whole atmosphere at the concerts of this huge influence to many of todays up and coming rock groups. Their concerts are quite simply electric.
