U2 fans brave weather for best spot



U2 blasts B.C. Place with rock anthems

By DHARM MAKWANA

U2 fans snaked through the Plaza of Nations since daybreak yesterday for a chance to get prime floor positioning.

Jennifer Gasa and her husband John travelled from Lacey, Wash., to get in the general admission line early for a chance to be within earshot of U2 frontman Bono.

"It's huge," she said. "The sound quality is crystal clear. There've been many times when you're sitting in the stands and the band is talking and you can't hear a single thing. With U2 you can hear every single thing."

Jennifer, who travelled last week to catch the U2 show in Arizona, was clearly excited about the Irish rockers.

By noon yesterday about 1,000 people were in line to get a floor seat.

Approximately 60,000 people attended last night's concert.
