Zagreb U2 concert tickets still available

 

Croatian Times

 

All those who have failed to get tickets for the U2 concerts on 9 and 10 August at Maksimir stadium in Zagreb may now be able to do so.

 

The Lupa promotion agency announced today (Thurs) it had extra tickets for both concerts.

 

A few hundred tickets will be on sale from 9am on Monday at all Ticketpro offices and website www.ticketpro.hr.

 

Sanjda Ajdinovski from the Lupa promotion agency, the concerts’ organizer, said: "They are tickets returned by foreign distributors and those ordered on-line but not paid for."

 

Tickets that cost 250 kunas or 33 Euros are no longer available.

I already knew, but thanks for posting anyway.

Well we know you won't be needing tickets. :P Maybe that woman who lost all her tickets when she dropped them getting into a car can buy some more? :unsure:

Why wouldn't I need tickets for 9th? :P When I'll be outside of the stadium anyway, I might wish to be inside. :P But, too bad, it'd be too much money to pay.

 

Yeah, poor woman will probably need ten new tickets. :lol:

 

 

I see U2.com are asking fans to pick one song from U2's back catalogue that they'd like to see 'resurrected' for this current tour. I wonder if they are actually going to perform the most popular song? :unsure: :w00t:

 

 

If I could choose one 'oldie' it would be Bad. :wub:

I'd choose Bad also. :wub:

They are building the stage there already? :blink:

 

Thought it would only take a couple of days :blink:

:lol: just aswell there's no planned footy matches in the stadium at the moment.

 

The stage is gonna be HUGE, judging by some of the latest pics on youtube.

 

I'm still concerned, sitting at the back of the stage, not sure it's going to be the bestest of views as it's not

being placed in the middle of the pitch.

 

 

You'll be much closer than me <_<

awwwwwww Jups,http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/consoling2.gif sitting in the car park isn't that bad really, you'll still be able to hear them :P

85 quid tickets and still miles away :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

 

Wonder if the 30 quid seats are even in Glasgow :unsure:

True :lol:

Jupsy you'll be watching them from car park? :P :lol: Lucky you! :lol: You have privilege. :lol:

 

I'm sure you'll have great view Sparkle! You're at the back of the stage, right? Then you'll be watching their back side a little bit more, but it'll still be a great view. :lol:

 

As I said, I'm not in that close row also, but still, I'll be close to the stage, I think. :dance:

<_<

 

Bah.

U2 Beef Up Security to Stop Backstage Pilfering on Tour

 

With thanks to:

http://www.u2star.com

 

Rockers U2 have hired a security team to guard their dressing rooms during their new tour — because fans kept nicking mementoes from their backstage compound.

 

They were so fed-up with items going missing during their last tour they have put beefed-up security measures in place for their first gig in Barcelona later this month.

 

The measures include drafting in 50 guards, installing CCTV and watch towers :blink: to keep an eye on band members’ private rooms.

 

Only their closest friends and family will get anywhere near the band with just 10 Access All Areas passes being handed out for each gig.

 

U2 are currently rehearsing for their huge stadium tour which kicks off at the Nou Camp on June 30. A group insider said: “The security arrangements around this tour are the most extreme we have ever seen. It is ultra-strict. The security operation will be the biggest ever mounted for a rock tour.

 

“The problem is during the last tour a few fans even managed to sneak in during concerts and they ended up running off with the band’s clothes :lol: and possessions.”

 

The group’s 360 Degree tour will hit Croke Park in July for three 90,000 capacity concerts.

 

Inside the stadium there will be five levels of security with different passes for each.

 

To get into the final zone — which allows direct access to the band — lucky VIPs will have to pass a series of security points and undergo a body scan with metal detectors :o .

 

While Bono and the group are performing CCTV cameras will monitor the halls leading to their rooms and the whole compound will become a “lock down.”

 

The source added: “It means there won’t be a free for all while they are singing.”

I'm seriously scared to go near this thing! :o

:o huge!

 

Looks like something from the War Of The Worlds film

I'm concerned. It's about this swine flu thing. It says on the telly that the WHO are about to raise the status to Level 6 and declare a global pandemic. Apparently if that happens, national governments need to look at things like travel bans, closing schools and cancelling all large public gatherings such as football matches, festivals, rock concerts etc.

 

:unsure: :blink:

 

 

Surely our concerts aren't going to be at risk because of this? :unsure:
