We drove down from Jacksonville. Thirty-five miles away the glass on our sunroof blew off during the pouring rain. We sat under an awning in Plant City for FOUR HOURS. I finally rigged some plastic over the hole in the roof, drove only 60 mph, ended up holding the plastic with one hand and driving with the other. We got to the stadium just as they began playing the first song. We got to our seats by the 4th or 5th. After all of the drama, it was still SO worth it.
Paul Gastelum yes! This was actually around 6. They were running behind because their plane was circling waiting for weather to clear so they could land. My husband looked it up online and read they usually arrive between 2 and 5? So we got here around 2. It was worth it!! Good luck!! 😁🙌🏻
Bono is a lyrical prophet of such beauty and speaks about whats about to become now. This is the climax of all his works. Seek what he has to say. u2 is a galactic machine of Many life forms all being spiritually aligned, illuminated, and using the influences of music, time travel, and love among the United to bring a message of the future with accuracy and musical elevation that's euphoric and feels familiar to every human. I love electrical storm. And who but I, the SON OF MAN understands the eternal soul of humanity when United alongside with the fullness of the subliminal understanding of Nikolai Tesla's purple Electrum, a powerful electrical force that we can and will harness that's actually billions of volts in comparative electrical output power. U KNOW IT BABY!
As cool as it would be to meet them or anyone else I don't want to look like those people ever it's just rly embarrassing begging someone for an autograph or picture then again I'm a Neil Peart fan...
Agreed. I'd be good with a handshake, and telling them thanks for the music. I'd rather be forgotten for being low-key, than to be remembered for pleading for an autograph and passing along a business card.
"Bono Please, PLease Please. Edge Please, please" Pathetic man. They were kind enough to sign your guitar (which will probably turn up on ebay now" "Fifteen years" You can see Edge telling bono right now: "Did you see that overgrown child with the guitar losing his shit begging for an autograph" Cringeworthy
Agreed. The first album I was old enough to buy was Joshua Tree 30 years ago. I got married on Bono's birthday 5/10/1997. I'm in heart and kidney failure - trying to find a team willing to do a transplant (everyone I've seen thus far has said no). Saw them in Louisville on 6/16 a week after having heart surgery. I will see them again in Indy where I live on 9/10. A fan for 15 years is pathetic. On my bucket list is to meet U2. I was embarrassed for the man begging and pleading.
Yeah watching the video, its a little uncomfortable, but I met this guy recently at the NOLA concert, and he's a really nice guy, has been to like 25 u2 concerts or something, and still has the guitar.
I've been following U2 since the start when they were still kids but what I want to know is how many of these people visit their grandmother, grandfather or parents with the same vigour! They're celebrities sure but look after your families first. Bono won't know you from Adam (excuse the pun). X
My first show was 6/22/83 on the War tour and I’ve seen every tour since, but I’d already thrown $ away buying tix for this tour when I saw what U2 was peddling in 2017. Pimping 30 year old songs and going through the motions after pulling a finished new record because Hillary didn’t win. This tour was/is to keep them in private jets & multiple homes and they pulled the record because they thought it might flop. Never had less respect for a band. A business decision like Trump would have made. All about the $ and a chance to lecture me between songs tribute bands would play more passionately. I gave my tickets away rather than get gouged one more time by parking to see a weak rock show and get preached at by the front man. The J Tree show 12/5/87 was the one to see. Don’t spend it all in one place, lads-no more where that came from, at least from my wallet. Plenty of other bands out there that spare me the save the world pose.
@Brinson Harris so Brinson I’ve heard about that 12/5/87 show at the old Sombrero, everyone says it was so cold but that band was at their peak. I saw them 3/17/92 for the St Patrick’s Day ZooTV show in Boston and to this day that’s the loudest crowd I’ve ever been in, that’s when they were ground breaking live shows. Seen them a few times since but by 2010 or so I thought they should retire, the way REM retired. There’s really nothing left for them.
Fans like that creep me out. Going to miss the NY shows but last few albums were not good. Unless they return I will stick with the thirty plus times I have seen them. Including many earlier 1980's shows. Four on original Joshua tree alone.
Lots of rain in the Tampa Bay area this time of year. The radar looked terribly ominous, just a couple hours prior to when U2 took the stage. It was a magical night!
I think U2 are pretty cool about everything ...So the guy sells his guitar on Ebay with some bona fide footage...So what , its not worth that much, as it does not belong to the Edge or Bonehead...Live and Let Live, .
I have no problem with the fans in this video. Let them enjoy the full experience of meeting and greeting. This is what U2 signed up for and they are the ones who owe it to the fans. It's part of the business. Without the fans, these guys have no career. Who cares if the guy sells the guitar on ebay. Why question him? Maybe he is a huge fan and wants to keep it as a collectors item. U2 charges enough for tickets and albums. I like U2 but they should meet the people who buy their merchandise and tickets. I give The Edge credit for sticking it out and signing and photo ops.
Luv the arrival. It's like a presidental arrival. I wanna meet Bono and Brian. Not crazy, but been following them since zoo tv.
Thanks to Bono and Edge for the guitar signing. Guitar is displayed in my music room never to be sold.
@MrTripoint1 you take offers on the guitar then ?
Love Bono's reaction when that woman says she liked the Spiderman Musical lol
"as long as it doesn't go on sale" Legend
15 years guy lol,saw them in small clubs in Dublin (my hometown) in the early 80s and from there on in every album since the first.
Lucky you. My first U2 gig was 1987 Orange Bowl, Miami. I'm the guy in the video.

"Esse é o guitarrista"
Porra nenhuma, esse é o Edge, caralho!
É esse tipo de fã que eles têm atualmente.
Fãs nutela
Met Bono on their 1985 Tour at the USF Sundome.....will never forget
@GenX 1968 he was just a kid then now he’s an old man
EDGE IS THE GENIUS!! LOVE YOU ALL
So kind ! That,s AWESOME !
these guys don't owe anyone anything. leave these poor guys alone..
They stopped for the fans!
THE BEST MAN OF THE WORLD, BONO!!!
The fans who met the bandmembers of U2 are so lucky!!
Awesome!!!!...guys, .. i'm going to the show in San Diego, just to have a clue, do you know how many hours before the concert, has this happened??
Paul Gastelum yes! This was actually around 6. They were running behind because their plane was circling waiting for weather to clear so they could land. My husband looked it up online and read they usually arrive between 2 and 5? So we got here around 2. It was worth it!! Good luck!! 😁🙌🏻
Omg, how fantastic! I'd be the one fainted on the ground. Lucky lucky friend
Very cool!

the Brazilian's everywhere!😎
Why are there people in a cage in the background?
I was at the concert
Bono & Edge satisfying the ebay sellers & the u2 fan-base loony fringe.
What's the lackey holding the umbrella for? =/

Frippertonics we re all always better then the next person aren't we sir ! U are actually cringing cause your critical and so are most comments here
If i met Bono, i would ask him to sign my 20th anniversary cd of The Joshua Tree....i wouldn't sell it for all the money in the world!
and then it was time for some all out hard core fork lift racing.
класс!
Tande was there?
15 years ... BFD. I saw them in a Midwestern college bar in 1981, do I get a prize?
they must feel like snapping all those bloody phones down....nightmare....and what is with the brolly over bono's head!! no one else has one!!!
Haverá sempre um brasileiro...
bet they are sorry they walked out there...
So that’s what brain murphy or Bono’s bodyguard sounds like
Bet he sells that guitar on eBay
So where's the other two guys in the band...what's their names again?
@22microns Larry something and the guy with the bass 🤭🤭
"15 years"?!?! What a conman. I'm 36 and I've been listening to them for 31 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Americans are goddamn painful.
Bono is starting to look like Pennywise, the Killer Clown from the Movie "It"
allí right Bono
ah! the edge tu grisonnes....... mais joue encore.. j aime!!!
Tu plaisantes!
non.. pourquoi ?
Where did you stakeout to see them? Screw 15 years. Try *30*!!!
4:04 priceless isnt it?
"Bono Please, PLease Please. Edge Please, please" Pathetic man. They were kind enough to sign your guitar (which will probably turn up on ebay now" "Fifteen years"
You can see Edge telling bono right now: "Did you see that overgrown child with the guitar losing his shit begging for an autograph"
Cringeworthy

@@lanceculver Hope you're doing ok. A lot of haters here.
I Wouldn’t Beg For An Autograph I Would Just Say Hello To Them And Not Begging For An Autograph
Umbrella 🌂 why?
4:04 lol
tande sai dai rapaa ajajajja

lol.......they both looked like they had hangovers from hanging too much in Miami, & what the hell is with the Umbrella over Bono's head.......lol
siblis20 because the weather that day consisted of a lot of rain
Lots of rain in the Tampa Bay area this time of year. The radar looked terribly ominous, just a couple hours prior to when U2 took the stage. It was a magical night!
siblis20 the best part about the rain was a rainbow came over the stage after one republic right as u2 was getting on stage
I was there and it was raining all day, and about 830pm the rain stopped and they came on at 9pm on the dot!! The rain stayed away the whole show.
I know, I saw it and got a pic. The whole stadium was over the rainbow.
I think U2 are pretty cool about everything ...So the guy sells his guitar on Ebay with some bona fide footage...So what , its not worth that much, as it does not belong to the Edge or Bonehead...Live and Let Live, .

Keep breathing :-)
Bono offed Chester Bennibgton
He didn't even look at your face.. typical pikie. .
BONO IS A TOSSER.
Here come the tax dodgers who sit by while their fans are ripped off. Ive gone right off them.
If you've gone off them, some may wonder why you have bothered coming here in the first place. #LiveAndLetLive
Just to see how far their egos have inflated.
Travis Bickle As long as you're happy. #Ciao
