The Unforgettable Fire

Some time back when U2 announced they were doing a tour this year I tried to get tickets for the London (Twickenham) show, but they sold out in minutes. One of the the ticket agencies just did a mail out - a batch of tickets has come available for the show in 2 weeks time. I weighed up the decision whether to buy or not for all of 30 seconds ... it's only money :p

So U2 this month, REM next month and some others lined up for August. All in all, not a bad musical summer (though not to everyone's tastes I admit ...)
