at this point of time we were trying to get as close to the stage as possible. I kinda feel bad for the vertically challenged individuals in the crowd - some of them were stuck staring at sweaty backs throughout the concert. At times I had to stretch my neck but eventually I figured that jumping around crazy would get me the elevation I needed to holla at Bono.

What next? Perhaps U2's 720 degree concert :P
