I am no longer a rock concert virgin! I went to see one of the greatest bands on Earth perform live at the Sam Boyd Stadium last Friday in Las Vegas. It was quite an interesting experience! U2 drew in a HUGE crowd of over42,000 people to this concert. Brad bought tickets for him and me near the beginning of the year, and they were ground floor tickets, so we could be up close to Bono and the rest of the band. I'm not nearly as big of a U2 fan as he is, but let me tell you, my adrenaline was pumping and I was jumping up and down when U2 showed up on stage only about 30 feet away! I have come to appreciate their music over the last three years, and I was very excited to see them up close.
Brad and I left early Friday morning with a bunch of other U2 fans carpooling in our van.

Lizzy came, too. My sister Rachel and her husband Craig babysat Lizzy during the concert. I was thrilled that Lizzy was able to come and that I was able to see Rachel. I'm glad everything worked out so perfectly.

We waited in line for several hours. That wasn't very fun, but at least we had each other to keep company.My legs and feet were killing me!
The stage was amazingly HUGE!
From what I've heard, it's the largest stage ever constructed for a rock concert.
Hooray for U2!
Bono was so close!
Thanks U2, for making this experience a memorable one for me.
I may even go to another rock concert someday.
Just not any time soon. My feet still hurt.
