About: A little about me, I was bitten with the U2 obsession in 1991 with the release of Achtung Baby. Although I’ve known about U2 since the mid 80’s it wasn’t until the AB album that I was hooked. AB was the very first (and only) album that I had ever owned that I played straight through without hating a single song. I truly love every song on that album. Even today that album seems so fresh.
My online activities, I'm curator of several U2 related sites: U2exit.com, U2torrents.com, U2fansites.com, and U2radio.com. I've maintained a U2 fan site in some form since the late 1990's.See Authors Posts (2587) on Aug 28, 2006 in News & Rumors | Comments Off
| Internet ticket scalpers will be targeted under a new crackdown on auction-based websites, such as eBay.
The state government will consider forcing online sellers to publish ticket seat and row numbers to stop people being ripped off.
It’s hope the move will create a fairer system, after six U2 tickets were sold on eBay for $12,000.
