1. She did in 2006, if I'm right
  2. You can just sense a 'Back In The USSR' snippet in Beautiful Day already......

    Of course they have fans there and people know them, but there's still a very small chance they'll ever go there.


    Please tell me that you only forgot to add a smiley.
  4. alot of popular bands have played Russia such as Muse and Rammstein, don't see why U2 would have a problem with a fan base
  5. I'd love to go to see U2 play Moskva. Problem is, probably cost a shitload, plus visa issues lol...bit of an effort unfortunately...
  6. If they return to Europe, chances are big they'll do Holland again. So if it is no Amsterdam Arena or De Kuip, what would it be then? Ahoy is fantastic, but way too small.

    Anyway, a Russian date would be amazing...and they should play Australia and South-America. And probably they'll add Zurich on the European leg..

    Goffertpark, Gelredome, Philips Stadion... options enough. No more indoor please


  8. Philips Stadion, oh man
    That would be like the closest they ever been to me haha

    EDIT: If its true they're playing arenas again in 2010 I see them returning to the Gelredome


  9. Could be. Still a bit too small i think. So it will again be our capital city...


  10. Well, I hope not, the sound is even worse than in the Amsterdam ArenA (imho)

    I have some friends who live in Russia, and I got to know them through U2 of course I can't tell about people's view in every-day-life and all, but if U2 would decide on playing Moscow, the country would go positively crazy about them and it would be a great chance for us to book a trip over there to visit the country and share the first-time experience of a U2 concert there. Great possibility, I could see myself going there
