Satisfied With U2

In response to Ticket Time owner Larry Gold’s letter (“U2 Ticket Limits Cause a Fuss,” April 18), I would like to answer his question about U2, “Did they really have the best interests of their fans at heart?”

My girlfriend and I had tickets for U2’s second show in Los Angeles. Although we had seats behind the stage and one row from the top, we were still excited being there for that night’s show. It was 30 minutes before concert time, when a man (a U2 employee, I suspect) approached us at our seats and asked us if we would prefer better seats. At first I was hesitant because the show was sold out, but we took him up on his offer. To our amazement we were not only on the floor, but in the front row as well! I think I can speak for the fans in Row 1, Section B, who were as lucky as my girlfriend and I.

Our answer: You can bet your life they had their best interests in us!
