U2 Groupie

2 U2 shows in a single week. Does life get any better? I guess there are blessings to being a single lady ;).

MJ & KA didn't get to go to see U2 in DC and so they decided a while back that we should head down to Charlottesville and catch them there- I couldn't pass that up. So Thursday afternoon, a mere 48 hours after seeing them tear up FedExField, we headed South for another rendezvous with the King of Ireland.
It was a much smaller stadium and so we had great seats, front row of the top section, just to the right of the stage. It was perfect. (Aren't these girls just adorable?!)
Our attempt at making a "U2" symbol with our hands..so clever.
Our view of the stage.
The man himself.
Rockin' and Rollin'.
We were on our feet for most of the show, dancing, screaming and just having the best time. It was the first U2 show for the girls, and they were not disappointed. It was phenomenal.
The Edge working over his guitar. He even sang a bit of a solo this tour and melted my heart...

When he sang "One" my heart nearly lept out of my chest...and when they finished the night off with "Moment of Surrender" I couldn't stop smiling. They are seriously amazing live. It was my 5th U2 show and it just never gets old.

Thanks for thinking to go KA, it was such a great night of U2, laughter and just good, good times. Can't wait for Paris.
