A day of U2

This is my first post to the list though I have been on it now for a few
months. I guess I was just waiting for something worth while to share.
Yesterday, it came. I had an extreme U2 day. Due to my job, I get to
visit a lot of music stores and I am always on the lookout for something
worth buying. At the first store I visited I saw a huge Zoo TV poster
that has been sitting in the store since the tour, lathered in dust. (I
had seen it a couple days before, but I had to wait to talk to the boss
to see if I could have it. I had dreams about the poster, except in my
dream, it was signed--talk about obsession!!) It's a great concert shot
with the perfect picture of The Fly (Bono clad in black
leather---DAMN!!). Then the next store I visited, I saw an import CD
of early U2 shows, one show in Amsterdam in 1981, and another at a
London College. At the same store, I found an Achtung Baby shirt.
Finally at the last store, I found an Achtung Baby poster. I was so
excited the whole day through, I think I found out what heaven must be
like. Everywhere I looked was U2. I am still reeling over my luck.
Anyhow, I hope this was worthwhile reason to write in. I just had to
tell people who might actually be able to relate to how I feel. Unlike
my friends who think I am a little amusing and a lot psychotic when it
comes to U2. Oh Boy, definitely need to remember to breathe.

P.S. I thought I would ask if anyone on this list is from Wisconsin. I
am from Milwaukee and I need to meet people with my same obsession near
me before I explode.
