It is said that if you send your wishes and dreams out into the Universe, and your intentions are clear and pure, your wishes, and desires will happen. So..... I am very clearly asking the Universe for a miracle. And that miracle is to somehow make it happen for me to go to the final U2 Vertigo concert on 9 December in Hawaii. It would be a dream come true for me, because, not only is it the final U2 concert for this tour, but also because Pearl Jam will be opening for them. And.........I have just discovered Pearl Jam!! (Thank you Barb!) Once again, I ask, where was I in the 90's?!? Their music makes me want to scream and sweat. U2 make me want scream, sweat and rejoice. Watching both live, on the same stage, on the same night is going to be awesome and amazing. An intense experience for sure.

It's a big dream this. I have checked out the tour package prices and a one week hotel stay with a GA ticket would set me back about R25 000 and that's before I've paid for an airticket! Also Hawaii is about as far away from Johannesburg as you can get. At least 36 hours of non stop travelling. But........I live in faith and hope.

U2 have launched a competition on their website in which you can win a trip to this final show. Shall give it a go. Hey, God helps those who help themselves! mmm wish me luck.
