  1. ^Okay but i have to say that it was hell to get tickets. Me and my friend logged in and barely made it. It was sold out and there were only tickets left for single use. We are going to try to trade.

    I wish the organisation would have given the lokal fanclub tickets, so everyone is able to attend. I heard that fans who badly wanted to go can't because of the rush on ticketmaster and did tot make it.
  2. it would be interesting to see how expensive the ticket are that are still on sale...if the only tickets that are still on sale are 200$+ than that is quite logical I think. I would never pay more than 100 euros for a single show
  3. Since the bike accident U2 have basically fallen off the face of the earth as far as promoting the album goes, they need to reschedule the Jimmy Fallon shows and get into peoples' living rooms.

    Totally agree, i'm sure GA and cheaper sitting tickets are all gone and not sold are just those with ridiculously high price. And probably won't be sold...
  5. Yep, that's mostly the case, as the article also states. But still, if you look at the numbers, there's so many of them.
  6. But that's pricing policy fault. Why would anyone buy it?
  7. Apparently they buy it for other artists and in previous tours. The article states that they suspect many fans to have crossed off U2 from their bucket list, to remember the 360 tour as their last concert.

    Agreed!

    My parents want to plan a trip to New York but it isn't working out because the shows they are able to attend are sold out. Ticket prices on StubHub have gotten quite expensive as well. I find it interesting that there can be such a mark up while tickets for other shows are available,

    I couldn't agree more. Unfortunately, the bike accident is the WORST thing that could've happened to the band. Like you said, there hasn't been a peep regarding U2. It went from the iTunes album drop, to everyone freaking out about it, to starting to play the songs live, they were doing a lot of little promo things (answering questions on Facebook comes to mind). Whether it was good news or people complaining, U2 were still in the spotlight. Then the accident happened and we have had NOTHING over the last 4 or 5 months. I understand they weren't able to go perform and stuff, but just release 45-60 second videos every so often on Facebook of them in the studio, figuring out how to play the songs from SOI live and stuff. Sorry, but I just think the accident (obviously) was the worst possible thing that could've happened. After all this time I still feel it's their best album since Pop, but without promotion it'd be hard for it to be noticed. Sorry for the long rant!
  11. unfortunate as the accident was, I still think they could've stayed on people's minds a lot more with proper single videos and the AIRING of such videos. remember how vertigo was everywhere, what with the apple spot? I heard "hello hello" everywhere I went. or hell, posters promoting the album/tour in the cities... I see none of that in germany at least.
  12. Why no promotion? They are rehearsing (or not)
