24greenleaves | MEMORY FROM 1980

Blown away

LOCATION: party , Virginia

YEAR: 1980

TAGS: party, concert

PUBLISHED: October 9, 2008

I was in college in 1980 and went to a party with some friends. The band that was playing that night played a song I had never heard before, but I knew it was awesome. It was "I Will Follow". I followed U2 all through my college years and continue to do so.

In 2000 I got the chance to see U2 in Charlotte, n.c.. The only tickets I could get were behind the stage. It didn't matter, I was going to get to hear U2 live! They were some of the best seats I have ever had because, no one was sitting in front of me, I could sit pretty much wherever I wanted, I sat down close to the stage, and Bono kept coming around the stage singing and dancing. I got to see a better show than the people who were squashed up front and could dance all I wanted and see Bono! It is definitely in my top 10 for concerts, and I have been to a lot.

I would be very excited to get the chance to see them again because they are definitely worth it.
