About 5 hours before U2 took the stage in Baltimore on Wednesday night, I had no idea I had any chance of going to the show, and then my editor at the City Paper e-mailed me about tickets at will call. The show was great, and I enjoyed writing my Noise review, but being able to call my wife and tell her that she could cross seeing U2 off her bucket list pretty much made my year.
