Tour Tickets? How do I get them?

here in the US, at a Ticketmaster outlet. But in all reality, I'm 99% sure there will be a pre-sale (different than the one offered to U2.com members, if that actually happens)...usually the day before tickets "officially" go on sale. Lots of bands do it. For instance, your local radio station will give out a presale code that works on the ticketmaster website.

right, but the u2.com code SHOULD (theoretically) give you access before any promotional codes given out by radio stations.

if you just concentrated on one venue and one particular day,then youre chances on a general sale are 50/50.

i think if you are more free with where you want to see them,then i expect youre chances will be better.

at least thats what im hoping for anyway.
