    But what do you expect from people from Europe, that they will say:''Yeeeey another US tour'' ?????

    Yeah, but that means North America will get as many legs as we do. You're Australian, only 25 million people live there, so therefore, there isn't much of a demand in Australia as there is in Europe. Roughly, 600 million people live in Europe, so about 24 times more people than Australia has.

    Oh, and I do care about places that do not get (much) concerts. I would really wish that they'd play in Japan, Middle East, Peru etc.
  3. And isn't it so that if I wanted to see an Australian band, I would probably have to travel to Australia all the time to see this band?

    I'm wanting everyone on this globe who wants to see U2 to be able to see them. But don't hold it against me if I'm happy they're playing in my homecountry or somewhere near me.

    Buy a plane ticket. I did.

    Also, the only people asking are the people asking are the ones who got left out of Europe 2 i.e Ireland, UK and Netherlands. Not looking for a fully fledged cross continent leg. And it's only because of heavy rumours as band members wishes.
  6. EVERYONE HERE WHO IS EUROPEAN IS A BASTARD BECAUSE HE/SHE SCHEDULED U2 IN THEIR COUNTRY. WTFFFF.


    What is with this place lately? Grow up.


  7. You don't get it. They are not bastards for going to U2 concerts, some (not all) are just selfish because they want another European leg when they have already seen it in their country (or just outside it) twice. Some countries haven't seen it at all, and can't or don't want to spend money on plane tickets. 1 leg for each continent is enough.

    I've only heard Ireland from the band. If a 3rd European leg it should be just the UK and Ireland.

    And The Netherlands is closer to Belgium, than I am to Canberra, so they didn't really get left out.

    Usually. Depends how lazy the band is.

    That's true. But, a lot of Australian's go to concerts. I think AC/DC's recent Australia/NZ tour was seen by 700,000 people. So there is still a lot of demand for some artists.

    They should do play in China, and play Walk On with Aung San Suu Kyi herself (yes I know that she is from Burma, not China but there's no way U2 will be allowed to play there)

    I dunno, a lot of Aussie bands spend a lot of time overseas trying to conquer the big markets.

    I'm not gonna carp about where U2 tours. I'm pleased they came here at all and if they come here again, I'll be even more pleased. But if they did some shows in Ireland and gave me an excuse to go back there, I'd be ecstatic.
