Hi, Benji!
I just wanted to say a big thank you for the U2 tickets that you gave me for my birthday. The concert was on last night and it was the most amazing show I have ever seen. This is the first time I have seen U2 play live and it's something I won't easily forget. Let me tell you all about it.
We arrived in plenty of time and got a really good place, right in front of the stage. The atmosphere was electric and by the time the band came on stage, the crowd was going wild! The group played lots of their old favourites but also some of their new stuff. It was brilliant. There were also some great special effects, like fireworks, and there were two huge screens on either side of the stage so that everyone could see Bono strutting around.
He was wearing his trademark glasses - so cool!
It's a real pity that you couldn't go to the concert with us.
Never mind, we'll make sure that you can come next time!
That's about all my news for the moment.
Once again, thanks a million for the tickets.
See you, Seamus
