I love U2!!!!!

Yesterday was supposed to be a normal day of school, baseball practice, etc. Until I got the phone call.....the phone call that made it a memorable day! My neighbor and great friend Liz who I speak of often, called to see if Matt and I wanted to go to the U2 Concert!!!!! Um, heck ya! Her friend had tickets and was not able to go and so she gave them to Liz who also could not go and so Liz gave them to us!!!!! Score! Despite the HOURS of traffic in Tampa, and us missing the opening band and U2's opening number, it was still a blast! I have always loved U2 and it was amazing seeing them in concert. At one point Bono, the lead singer, pulled this teenage kid up on stage for one of the songs and ended up giving him his glasses. Talk about cool!

Us when we thought we were going to be on time, if I would have taken it a while later Matt would not have been smiling, but gritting his teeth and pulling his hair out :)

They made the stage look like a big space ship. It had very cool effects, like the jumbo-tron (the screen) would stretch down and almost touch the stage. It would change colors through out the night and sometimes the top would shoot light up into the sky and it looked like it was being beamed up to the mother ship :) Very cool!

We were exhausted by the end of the night and didn't get home until after 2:00 a.m.! Well worth it!
