Oh yeah her tickets are sky high too! But no, the Sphere in Las Vegas for U2 UV - they’re performing Achtung Baby. This will be my 5th U2 concert but I only got these tix because it’s at the Sphere (which I’m geeking out over lately - the visuals / the sound) and U2 is probably the best performing artists to roll out this venue.

Awesome. Just out of reach for me right now, but I hope you have an absolute blast.

Well, they definitely work but my nose looked flared out for like an hour after taking it off. Not sure it's gonna be an every night thing.

Oh weird, that’s never happened to me. I use the sensitive skin ones though, maybe not as hardcore and you could try.

Conclusion: Although both the Max-Air Nose Cones and the Breathe Right nasal strips increased PNIF from baseline, the Max-Air Nose Cones showed significantly greater efficacy at stenting the anterior nasal airway, providing twice the improvement in PNIF over baseline than did the Breathe Right nasal the strips.
