    Depends on when they release SOA (weird abbreviation if you know Dutch)

    Let's see what the future brings us, another leg in the summer here would be great.


  3. I still don't think they will release anything, but we'll see. (and hope)


  4. I don't think that they'd tour Europe again without new material (new release or new set)- unless they only want to visit countries, they missed this year. U2 will never sell out big stadiums with a simply extended 360 tour. And they know that.

    True, so a new leg depends on a new album. And a new album is not another best of. Great.


  6. those bastards!!! i thought bono was fighting against aids?

    sorry i had to do it xD


  7. After the North American tour ends, U2 will stay in Vancouver to complete work on the new album, Songs of Ascent. It'll be released in December or early in 2010.


  8. I know, but after HTDAAB there were also lots of rumours that said there would be a new album in a year. And the same after ATYCLB. What struggles me is that those rumours never become reality. They never seem to pay it off good enough, make the sessions album worthy. They just need more time (these years).
  9. In the end we're discussing rumours so nothing is certain yet. Let's see..


  10. A 2010 tour is certain, though. The question is - where?

    Pretty relieved they never put another HTDAAB out... but these rumors about SOA are from U2 itself, Bono and now Larry's drumtech. I have faith, would love to hear a crazy little brother of NLOTH


  12. That's true. Well, just to add to the discussion: Bono and I believe some other source claimed they'd play Brussels next year. Same for 3 venues in Germany and one in Austria. And why would they skip Kopenhagen, Oslo, Lisbon? I think a European tour is almost a certainty and the rumour posted here about a possible 2010 summer leg is very likely to be true.

    Same goes for that Australian spring leg, I can't see them skipping Australia and although they might stick to Melbourne, Sydney etc, they could continue the leg in Tokyo.

    I somewhere read the tour would last for 2 years so another US-leg in fall 2010 could be possible too, ending in Honolulu again lol.

    My opinion though..
