Melbourne, Australia

Melbourne is a hip city. It was a nice walk from the central bus station to Home At The Mansion, which was the nicest hostel I stayed in Australia. It was a beautiful old Salvation Army building, converted over time into a hostel. It was clean, with a very helpful staff. I met an English semi-professional cricketer named Jay, and it was cool to hang out with him. I met some other people in the hostel and joined them on a trip on the Great Ocean Road. I wished I had more time in Melbourne to check out its famous restaurant scene, but I had to get back to Sydney for Christmas. The weather was a bit cooler there (compared to Perth), and I believe its because it’s further south and thus closer to Antarctica. The waters were certainly much colder!

    #U2 Hard to believe that the 2019 Joshua Tree open #U2 Hard to believe that the 2019 Joshua Tree opener in Auckland, New Zealand was 3 years ago today.

I’m really enjoying Bono’s autobiography #SurrenderMemoir. Incredible perspectives of his upbringing and influences in Dublin.

Last image on this post has a snippet of an IEM recording I took from the Auckland rehearsal on November 3, 2019. New Zealand in a way is In God’s Country.

This song (and album) is the soundtrack to my 2008 summer backpack travels in Egypt, Jordan, and Israel (Jerusalem, of course).

Got a GA ticket for this show - nice to be back after 3 years to be on the floor and on the rail. Was able to get my camera in for these photos.
