I was at the last four shows theyve played to date.

Slane Castle 18/8/07 followed by the 02 shows on 21,23 & 26th August.

7th row centre on the final night with Meg and Sweet Virginia.

I think we started off with seats in Block C on the floor (thanks for nothing, rs.con) , sold them on and upgraded to Block B, and then sold THEM on when seats became available near the front through a broker. As it was the last show, and my two compatriots had travelled all the way from the US (in SV's case, it was just for this one show - Meggy had been there for all three), we all figured we may as well make the most of it.

What a great time. And such an amazing group assembled for that final show of the Bigger Bang Tour--Gazza, Bitch, Egon, Meg, Ade, Honky Tonk Man, Kent, Glen....so many beautiful lunatics. And I'm sure I'm forgetting so many.

And thanks to Gazza and his constant seat upgrading, I was able to take pics like this:

The Final 3 shows to date... aug 21, 23, 26 with my mom
flew over from toronto for the shows, had floor seats each time, a combination of block A and B but we kept moving around

I made my way to the b-stage at all shows, i remember when mick threw a water bottle in the crowd near me and someone snagged it

I got a total of 5 guitar picks from those 3 shows, including one from chuck, who decided it would be appropriate to give me one of woody's.

The final moment of the last show (so far!)... band is taking their final bow and ronnie whips his guitar pick randomly into the crowd, I just had to track it down
