    Yep, but it made me interested 'cos if there was something true about it there would be 7 gigs around me. A friend of mine told me that there was some information about U2 playing in Prague on the next tour, but they want the show promoters to guarantee at least 80 000 people to attend the concert.

    can't wait for some official info, I need to know some real dates so much!


    No way they'll be playing only 1 gig in Ireland and England, and only 2 in Germany, but still 3 in the Netherlands.


  2. U2.com felt the need to announce once again that those are bullshit dates.

    Rumours (Unfounded)

    Just a note to correct some online information suggesting that tickets are available for U2 shows this summer. No tickets are available and no shows have been announced.

    There are no tour dates for the band at the moment so please don't get stung by buying tickets for shows that don't exist.

    You can be sure any future live announcements will be made on U2.Com as soon as details are confirmed.


    Stupid U2 fans who buy tickets through such websites. No pity there.
  3. And kick-off in Spain: would this have something to do with the style of the album? Vertigo part II?


    Interesting thought. Another Spain connection--the motorcycle video was also shot in Spain, though we don't know what it was/will be for...hmmm...

    You're aware that De Kuip is in Rotterdam?

    I am...I mean the dates (for example: the 10th of July in the ArenA instead of the Kuip )
  5. "What are the plans for the tour? How do you plan on topping Vertigo?

    Bono: "Well, I can't say too much because [promoters] the Live Nation people would die. But I think it's fair to say that what we've planned for outdoors has never been done before and that we've been working on it for a long time. It's a feat of engineering genius."


    Don't know if this has been posted.
  6. I'd hope for a return to Europe to play some indoor shows. Stadiums suck.


  7. Nice spectacle though. We in Ireland are prett much certain for a few O2 gigs so i'm happy
  8. From ATU2.com:

    IF BONO SAYS IT, IT ...

    We received a couple emails alerting us to a conversation Bono and
    Adam reportedly had Thursday night in Dublin with fans outside the
    band's studio. Bono apparently told the fans two pieces of news worth
    passing along:

    * The new single will be released to radio on January 19 (see
    below, too).
    * The tour will begin in Spain before the end of June.


    DISCLAIMER:
    That is IF Bono is to be believed and IF the fan that gave the information got it right.

    Probably still best to wait for Principle Mgt. confirmation.
  9. I just hope MOFO makes a return

  10. I think everyone's thinking about that for a long of songs, and not just Mofo lol. I agree though, a return of that, even if limited in appearances, would be pretty special.
  11. This might also explain BONO's "Outdoor" comment.

    Bono's comment might have said OUTDOORS and not wanting to upset LIVE NATION because they usually play outdoors in Europe and that would give away that they were starting the tour in Europe.
