This morning, I have a dilemma.

Pre-sale tickets are out for U2 in Twickenham. I can get 4 and I can get them now. However as it turns out I can only get presales for one date out of the entire tour. Dublin pre-sales don’t start until Monday.

So do I wait or do I make sure I can get Dublin tickets for the night that I don’t even want to go because I want to be in Glastonbury just so I’m sure I get to see them at home.

Fuck. Twickenham is calling me because I can get them now and then I can know that I have my tickets and I’ll see them at least once. But at the same time I’m supremly confident that I can get tickets for it through the general release. It’s a big venue and I have one of the fastest internet connections in the country available to me to book with.

Fuck. The last time U2 played Dublin (Popmart ’97), I didn’t go because I was away at a wedding. I’ve never seen them in Dublin and Slane was a truly fantastic evening. This time promises to be so much more. Croke Park and everything that it comes with. Being allowed onto the pitch as opposed to heavy handedness of late after the GAA.

I’m annoyed that it’s only one night I can book for. Given that I paid to sign up to be able to get pre-sales, not a huge amount but not cheap either. It’s annoying. I guess I’ll have to make do with all the other benefits of that but fuck.
