    Nope, it isnt like in the Cold War anymore. But the normal man on the street still has no idea of democracy and freedom of speech. Only high politicians and such do.

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

    Don't agree, if Madonna can play Moscow, U2 can play St. Petersburg.


  3. Madonna played Moscow?

    Ouch...I take back what I just said
    Didnt expect that...
  4. Macca played St Petersburg too. And Red Square in Moscow


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

    Please tell me that you only forgot to add a smiley.
  8. 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
  9. 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...
  10. 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..

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