Sorry if this has already been talked about, but does anyone have any idea when and where around BC Place we might be able to catch a view of the band when they come for sound check? Ahh! I would give anything to finally meet Bono!
Can't wait for the show!

Me too! If we don't hear anything specific, we're going to poke around BC Place around 2:30, 3ish to see if we can catch them coming in for soundcheck.

If they do a soundcheck, it'll be tomorrow afternoon & I'd say anywhere between 1 and 3ish.... We may too but we'll see what unfolds tomorrow! *so excited!* The perfect bookend for this leg.  |

Bah! You think tomorrow? We were going to head to the mainland tomorrow, but figured we would all work the day, and stay an extra day after the show. Fingers crossed there is still some kind of encounter.

Thanks EF! I wish I could make it over today! My friends and I work until 4:30 today, and have tickets to the Michael Jackson This Is It show this evening. Sadly we won't make it over until tomorrow morning. If there is any kind of post show gathering, let me know!

We're heading down in about an hour to suss out the GA lineup but it could be that they do a soundcheck around 4 pm on Weds ( forum bud source).....
See you at Doolin's! Keep the sunshine comin!

There's a good chance they don't do a soundcheck at all, too. Last show of the tour. Nothing being filmed. No pressure. Etc.
However, my gut feeling is they may soundcheck the songs they plan to play at MSG on Friday night for the Rock Hall concert.

Granville and Nelson A pile of U2 fans, and we will discuss this and more over a pint or 10 Edgefest - I have this mental picture of you standing at the foot of Vancouver with those Flashlights that Airport tarmac workers use to direct planes. This way people...Keep on moving...No I am not Edge people...Yes I am wearing the "7" shirt but I do not find Morleigh attractive in the least. That's right people. No I do not....And yes...I have been known to don a belly dancing costume when listening to Mysterious Ways....Please move along....Be merry...IT's a BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!! I paint a hell of a picture huh??? ;-) |

They're gonna soundcheck all those U2 obscurities that they're gonna unleash in an unprecedented four hour set! |

Oh no- I forgot about that on Friday evening. I believe we will see it televised at a later date. |
