Anyone else going to U2 @ Hampden

[downthepub]

Belatedly bought some tickets at the tail end of last week, hacking it down and back after work from Aberdeen. Not looking forward to the journey, but a) have seen U2 in concert before (they were excellent), b) a friend saw this tour in Gothenburg (and said it was excellent).

Me and the missus are going, looking forward to it!

[kmm]

I'm going with wife and meeting my sister and her 2 kids. Mega that Cel & Ars game same night. Traffic should be nice down M80

[KB_S1]

Me and the GF too.

Not a huge fan but freebies were offered and I thought it would be rude not too.

You should worry, I'm having to take my missus to see Cliff Richards and the Shadows at SECC in October

cliff is gay?! no way...

[Ian974]

Won't be going, but would have loved to. Only remembered when I saw a few tickets for sale in the paper today, and won't be able to get time off work tomorrow. D'oh!

[Kiltie]

We had a couple of tickets but I sold them on for less than face value.

I had some 'canine' and family issues which made it a wee bit difficult.

The thought of a throng of suicidal Celtic supporters and a few thousand ecstatic (SP?) Goonars was the decider not to go.

I'm sure everyone will have a memorable night.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Eric

Look out if you're driving

Yep heading down with the missus this afternoon
Oh there is football on as well, oh great, thanks for the heads up any idea when that starts?

[Scotty Corse]

The kick off is at 7:45pm mate, but the place is probably flooded with footy fans already.

[S2red]

There are roadworks on A80/M80 coming in to Glasgow from Stirling and the north

On Saturday first day of football season there was a massive 10mile? tailback so if thats the way you are coming in leave VERY early - Celtic supporters plus U2 traficc could be very heavy

Oh and there are also roadworks at Harthill on M8 cant win can you!

Almost tempted to suggest Train is best option for getting in but watch your times for getting home

[Grant76]

Not going tonight, saving myself for Giants Stadium NYC in September.

Can't wait! Hope you all have fun tonight.

Hmm, thanks for the heads up. Think I'll go via the Forth Road Bridge if the queues where that bad!

[Rockatansky]

I just turned down a free ticket
