A little OT but the roof of that stadium looks amazing

Honestly, I won't be too disappointed. Trip to Miami has drained the funds... Although, those dates are still open. If it's true that this is complete, something about Atlanta pissed them off!

My thoughts are they are still working the venue, though... U2 were the first concert performed at the Georgia Dome when it opened in 1992. Now, the timing would set the stage for them to be the first concert in the new Mercedes Benz Stadium set to open at the end of August. I'm wondering if they are working details out to play there instead of the rumored Georgia State Stadium...

To be fair, Louisville was added later on. Everyone thought that was an odd choice. Atlanta/New Orleans could be announced. Who knows.

"Overwhelming demand" rationale a bit hollow when U2 are playing a bunch of secondary US markets but Europe still has just 12 gigs. TWELVE!
