    HOT PRESS MEETS U2'S ADAM CLAYTON

    In a rare interview, U2’s Adam Clayton discuses why battling his own demons has inspired him to help young people with mental health issues – and talks about the upcoming U2 album...





    This is a REALLLLLYYYY interesting interview. And long. And truly interesting.
  2. Thanks, Sergio - a great interview indeed! With a really nice man.

  4. Agente Infiltrado: U2 em Portugal em 2015
    O Agente Infiltrado descobriu que os U2 regressam a Portugal em 2015 para um concerto num estádio.

    Os fãs dos U2, que continuam a poder reclamar o epíteto de maior banda do mundo, poderão admirar a prestação de Bono e camaradas ao vivo no ano de 2015. Isto é, ainda faltam dois anos para o regresso da banda de Boy aos palcos portugueses.

    A informação, recolhida junto de fontes bem informadas no que respeita a concertos de estádio em Portugal, garante que os U2 só passarão pela Europa nesse ano. O que não deixa de bater certo com os rumores que nos últimos meses têm sido difundidos em sites de fãs dos U2, segundo os quais o novo álbum chegará aos escaparates ainda este ano, começando a nova digressão em 2014 em terras americanas.

    Surely some of our Portuguese/Brazilian friends could improve the translating, but in the meanwhile, I understand something like this...


    An infiltrated agent has discovered that U2 might be back in 2015 for a stadium concert; the fans of U2, who still claim the Biggest Band Of The World title, must wait for another 2 years for the band to come back to Portugal.

    This information, gathered from well-informed sources regarding stadium concerts in Portugal, tells that U2 will only come to Europe during that year. This clashes (?) with some rumors that have circulated among the U2 fansites, according to which the new album will be in the stores later this year, a new tour starting in 2014 on American ground.



    SO......... Thoughts? It could be complete bullshit of course, but this kind of rumours use to carry some truth, specially when they come from sources not associated with the band (I suppose the so-called infiltrated agent must work for and/or have contacts into LiveNation Portugal, and/or some stadium managements, etc).
  5. Last 3 months of 2013: new album
    February/March: Start of tour in USA
    August: South America
    November: Australia etc
    2015: Europe

    ????

    Doesn't seems very logical.
  6. Hmmm, I suppose 2014 arena shows and 2015 some stadium shows. Would be plausible I think.
  7. I think they'll do what they done with Elevation Tour: so a year full of arena shows. For example, one leg in NA, a Summer arena leg in Europe, then another one in NA. Then I think they may hit Australia afterwards. After that, probably a stadium tour in NA and Europe in 2015.
  8. ^ that seems the most logical option, and I would personally LOVE it... Seeing the 360 tour in 2 consecutive years with the same stage and in stadiums was fine, but seeing them in an arena and then in a stadium the next year would be much better!
  9. You guys have no idea what it's like to never really know when a big band is coming out. Even if they don't play your country, there's a good chance you can just pop over the border and see him in a neighbouring country. Not here. We're the most isolated frigging country in the world basically, especially when it comes to music. So I couldn't care less about what U2 do for this next tour, as long as it hits our shores..
  10. Yeah, it must be awful

    Yea...right...want to switch countries mate?
  12. I'd be willing to bet they don't hit Australia on the next tour, but I could be very wrong. Something tells me they'll play Europe and North America and that's it. Didn't they say after hte last tour that big world tours were done for a while? I think Adam said that.
