// My U2 Virginity Has Been SHATTERED!

It's Monday, the concert was on Friday, why have I not posted?!?! I don't think I have fully recovered from that awesome night of rock! Wow! I mean wow! I mean really wow! I don't think I ever want to go to another concert again because it will just be a let down, that's how good the concert was! Every U2 song is now a memory. Every time I listen to any of their songs I remember back to that awesome Friday night of rock. Matt Glynn was blown away, I was blown away. Let me start from the beginning...

I picked up Dyllan at 5pm. From this time until 1:30am there would be non-stop action and fun. The reason Dyllan joined me on the ride is because I figured he would like to see Matt too. Oh yeah! Crazy thing, Matt Glynn is the only guy who calls me Matty. Anywho, we got to the ferry terminal at about 5:43, and didn't wait very long for a very excited Matthew to join us in the car. We started the drive back to Richmond, cracking some jokes about how Richmond sucks, just to bug Dyllan, but he hates Richmond just as much so it doesn't work as well. Anywho, we dropped Dyllan off at the church and made sure we didn't stay long. We got to my house, and picked up the tickets and headed for General Motors Place, where we were about to have the experience of a life time.

We parked for $15, but it was close to GM Place and Matt paid so no complaints there. We both were starving and we didn't want to spend millions of dollars on expensive stadium food so we bought hot dogs outside GM Place, where we both majorlly burned the inside of our mouths. Yes, it still hurts. We make are way into GM Place, and it's the moment of truth. Did this scalper sell me fake tickets? We come up to the ticket taker, and we're good! Major relief, unlike poor PJ! Immediately it's time to stock up on U2 memorabilia. The line up was huge, and they had so much stuff! There were vintage t-shirts from like there War Tour back in the 80's for $100!! Wow, I love U2, but that shirt would have to be framed! Anywho, I got through at it was time to buy! Time for a mastercard commercial!

U2 T-Shirt $45
U2 Program $25
U2 Poster $10
3 U2 Pins (One for Stephanie, and I lost it) $9
1 Medium Coke $4
2 Hot Dogs $8
2 Cans of Coke $2

1 Night of awesome U2 Rock: Priceless

I didn't even use MasterCard. Can somebody add that up for me? How much money did I spend? Anywho, it was time for rock! After waiting for half an hour for U2 to come out, my dream came true. They opened up with The City of Blinding Lights, followed by Vertigo, and Elevation rocked! Bono got us singing along with it and oh man! It was so awesome! They had a ring around the stage that he would walk around and every once and a while Adam and the Edge would get up and start to walk around a bit! Poor drummer can't walk around though, but they got him out there too! It was so cool, with one symbol for one song! That rocked! Wow, and they had so many encores too. Just as you thought they were done they would come back on and they did that twice! That was awesome too! The DVD they film for the tour was done that night too! AMAZING! U2 must love us. Vancouver is officially the City of Blinding Lights!

After the concert, Matt and I had to sit down. It was so amazing and so mind blowing. I'll never forget that night. One of the best experiences I ever have had.
