U2

I have to say that i'm not a big fan of U2, maybe it's because i'm too young and i don't feel the excitement that the older generations feel...but this race to the tickets for their concert in Portugal in 14 of August is somehow odd. Ok, maybe not odd, they are, problably, the biggest band playing this year (yes, this year we don't have The Rolling Stones playing, ah but we have Queen, but without the original line-up) at least the most famous, and I think that people are so tired of this miserable politics and economic s(h)ituation that we have in Portugal that they are willing to give between 54€ and 100,50€ to see them, and, as if prices weren't high enought they have to wait almost for two days in ticket lines in the f*cking cold, yes it is f*cking cold in Portugal, with temperatures between -20 in the highest mountain in Portugal mainland and six in Algarve, but people had to deal with temperatures around -6 and 2 degrees while waiting for the tickets. After said this it's predictable that it will be a great show, after all the things people put up to buy the ticket it better be! This subject even motivated my grandpa to say some words last saturday, we has amazed that people would do such crazy things such as waiting in the cold and pay such high prices for such an old group! I won't be there...
