  2. Looks like a spanner has been thrown in the works for any future visits by U2 to Argentina. Current rumours suggest a U2 tour of South America is being planned for March 2011, naturally including a visit to Argentina. However, according to this article (in Spanish), concerts have now been banned at River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires. The vibrations during concerts have been recorded at up to 17 times higher than permitted levels, prompting the ban - in light of both the excessive disturbance to local residents and international examples of excessive vibrations compromising a stadium's structural integrity.

    All of U2's five previous concerts in Argentina have been at River Plate Stadium, the country's largest stadium. It is the first choice venue for major rock concerts, and U2's promoters, Time For Fun, have been eyeing it off. They have been adamant in their desire to host U2 at River Plate Stadium. If it is not available, other large stadiums are located in Buenos Aires, so the problem is at least not wholly insurmountable. Estadio José Amalfitani, for example, has hosted many prominent international acts.

  3. A song about U2, how charming

  5. I'm sick of hearing about how they want to make a "club" album. I highly doubt this'll happen, but if it does i'll be pretty upet with U2.
  6. Next album will have a dancing sonority

    Dancing. With this word, Bono described the next U2 album on an interview to the Rolling Stone (September). Bono said the album will have a sound for night clubs.

    Bono also said the band has plans to release a rock album and a collection of songs called Songs Of Ascent. Those songs are songs from the latests albums of U2.

    The leader of U2 also talked about his recent incident that postponed American dates of the 360 Tour to the next year. "The world has biggest problems than the one I got, but I faced it...and overcame it! I feel very grateful for it."

    In the last 2 paragraphs, the article talks about the recent rumours of U2 being in Chile and S. America in March of next year. A negotiation is under way, but the dates still have to be confirmed.

  7. I'm sorry, that thing about the dance album reminded me to:
    "I told somebody I thought it was a dense record and word got around that we were making a dance record." - Bono, about the Achtung Baby album

  8. Why??? ..... WHY?!?!?!
