Originally posted by Sydney_MIke:Brilliant show last night however my experience was marred by sight restriction issues. I had Cat-3 in Bay 15 [unrestricted supposedly] but when I arrived that bay was covered in cloth and we were offered a range of seats nearby in other bays. The best available left me able to see Larry but nothing else on the B-Stage.Very disappointed by that and fortunate to have seen other shows but Live Nation and Ticketet need to lift their game significantly in terms of identifying seats with restrictions. Paying $200 to see <70% of the band's performance is theft.

Originally posted by Sydney_MIke:On a personal note, I'm heading to the show tonight with my eldest daughter and this will be the 3rd Australian tour and the 4th show we have seen together. A pretty good achievement considering she was born 3 years after The Joshua Tree was released. Makes each show a memorable shared experience for the both of us.
