“PS – totally agree – more of OBA and PLP (photographed as well as working) together would be fantastic! Do it guys!! It’s what all of BDA wants from you.”

Wow!! Oh now you want to hold hands singing kumbaya?? I wonder if PLP was still in opposition if your sentiments would be the same…… Some of you are really laughable.

Steady on with the ranting. It was not a great venue – there are better ones. The trees, the high fencing and the tent in the middle made it very claustrophobic and when we wanted to move back to avoid being crushed, we are pushed and shoved and shouted at.

By the way, U2 are not in the same league as the artists on Wednesday so I not surprised you paid so much to see them – U2 are legends. Wednesday was pretty mediocre and we waited ages listening to pretty crap warm up music.

@Sickofantz – “…to expensive at $85 to be miles from the stage…” Really? HA! Next joke. Don’t make me laugh! I doubt you have ever been to a substantial concert in a REAL venue overseas….as opposed to a downtown parking lot…? My family (4 of us) recently went to a U2 concert in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada – part of their world tour of 164 venues. We were there along with 110,000 (yes, one hundred and ten thousand – nearly twice all of BDA’s size!) other U2 fans from all over the world. We sat along with 45,000 others in a horseshow shaped set of bleachers whilst the remaining crowd spilled out of the horseshoe and up the side of the mountain where we all were. The beyond spectacular stage was in the middle of the horseshoe and rose to nearly 200 feet in height. The multiple banks of speakers on this thing were awesome to behold and hear. We were SEVERAL hundred feet away from the stage – but we could see the band (Bono, The Edge and the others) both live on the stage as well as on HUGE screens hanging from the stage. The sound was so intense I felt every thump of the base and drums as if I was sitting right next to them. We ALL did!! The price? Over $2,000 for the 4 of us…..as opposed to $340 for 4 on Wednesday night. Trust me – you were NOT far from the stage!!! (And no, we didn’t mind paying that much because we know all about the VAST charitable giving that U2 does with a lot of the money it gets from its concerts.)

PS – totally agree – more of OBA and PLP (photographed as well as working) together would be fantastic! Do it guys!! It’s what all of BDA wants from you.

Worst concert EVER!!!!!!!!
The layout of the concert space was just terrible for general tickets. You could not see the stage because of the space was taken up by the trees, gate and tent right in the middle of the viewing area. There were so many people squeezed into a space too small for all the general ticket holders. We got 3 Soca songs and by the time Sean Paul came on I was just fed up with all the people and the lack of space. There are much better venues for the number of people at this concert. I’m surprised it met the capacity requirements for the space it was held in.
Worst concert EVER!!!!!!!!

Yes great to see Dunkley and Burt! Can we have more of that please,we are too small an island to have 2 parties at odds with each other dividing the country! The tickets were too expensive at $85 to be miles from the stage.

My favorite photo of the year was seeing Mr. Dunkley and Premier Burt in unity, we all want hope and this photo represented that.

I loved seeing Premier Burt and Dunkley sending a message together. Hopefully, they can continue to work together. Maybe there is hope afterall.
