Bet you didn't know that........

In Chicago some of the banners said
"the angels listen to U2"

"Happy Mothers Day Ali"

"Baby Baby Baby Light my way Oh come on"

"Stay + Piano Tonite?" on saturday night
then the next night the flip side of the sign said
"Thank You"

"Party Girl"

"got bono?"

"mother of 3
one dream
one dance"

"I'm Advertising; Play Unforgettable Fire"

During WOWY on Sunday when Bono laid next to the girl, the back of his shirt flopped down, allowing a view of his lower back and possibly his underwear, but his security guard flipped it up, I think Erin may have a shot of this or I may as well.

During the sunday show during one of the songs early in the set, Bono got pissed at a person holding up a sign, he shot them a really pissed off look, gestured that he wanted it put down, and even said to put it down, barely audible on the mic.

At the end of the Saturday Show, someone in the heart handed Bono a bunch of Yellow flowers, he leaned down, made a face in mock disgust and then turned and handed them to Larry who was laughing.  Edge grabbed a single flower from someone, Adam grabbed an envelope from someone and looked to see who it was addressed to, but held on to it.

On sunday right before U2 came on stage, someone near the edge of the heart had some sort of recording device taken away by security.

Saturday night, bono grabbed a fan's camera and took a picture of the fan, then of himself.

No run around the catwalk during streets, but he did do it twice during the fly

On Saturday Bono made it around the heart in 13.6 seconds during streets(thanks Erin)

On Sat. Edge wore a Chicago Bears shirt with the number 23 added to the back (23 being Micheal Jordan's Number)

In the GA line on Sunday, a U2 fan bought a net for the Public Housing's basketball court right across from the line (several games were played between the local kids and fans)

About 20 minutes before the GA doors opened on Sunday, someone left 4 tickets inside a port-a-john, so the U2 fan that found them (I wanna say his name was vince but he was well known as the card master) went up to everyone in line looking for the owner, any other concert the finder would have gone and scalped those for some really good money at the front gates. 

Bono grabbed a leopard skin hat from a girl in the audience during In A Little While, Right before Ground on Sunday Bono asked Edge if this was a hat song (bono had taken a girl's leopard skin cowboy hat prior to the previous song) Edge shook his hand in a gesture that resembled "kinda/sorta" and bono then handed it back to the girl. 

The stage managers mother was inside the heart at the begining of the show on Sunday, later she appeared in "no mans land" at the tip of the heart. she was wearing a pop shirt and singing along to WOWY

The security guard right in front of us at the semi tip of the heart, was named nancy, she confessed that she was a grandmother, she bet me ten dollars that I couldn't name a song playing before PJ Harvey came on stage (green onions booker t and the mgs) I didn't make her pay up.  She was singing and dancing throughout the entire show. 

Number one thing you didn't know about the chicago shows,

I loved every single friggin moment of them.

With that I'm done.
