1. My money's on U2 playing what will be the newly opened Lansdowne Road in Dublin, their first appearance there since '97.

    Smaller crowd but a better spectacle than Croker

    Yeah, the Claw would look great there...


    Norway was skipped over again since we don't have a stadium suited for the Claw, so playing indoors is probably also out of the question.


    oh yeah, i keep forgetting about the huge claw. Sorry

    thats my wish
  4. I'm still waiting for Brazilian dates, and I believe they will announce more European dates soon


  5. You do know they knocked this down several years ago?

    And the arena's you listed are indoor. No chance.

    MK Bowl is possible. Old Trafford or such.


  6. Depeneding on the field, I would say GAs can hold up to 20 000. This is a fact: The Olympic stadium in Stockholm has a seated capacity of 14 500, and when Springsteen played there this summer there were 33 000 spectators each of the three nights he played. If the stadium is bulit for track and field, it can hold more people in GA.That example goes för Ullevi Stadium in Gothenburg, as well.

    Not crazy.

    It won't be any football stadiums as the new season will have started in the UK by then. It would need to be the lesser used stadiums again, Murrayfield/Hampden, Wembley, Millennium etc.
  8. Supposedly blocked dates:

    Zurich Aug. 4./5.
    Rome Aug 7./8.
    Brussels Sept. 21./22.


  9. Looks like I have to find a place to sleep in Brussels then....!

  10. 2 blocked dates doesn't mean 2 gigs, though.


  11. thats right, but it's just a nice thought....
    and it got you your 4000 st post!

  12. I hope Frankfurt will remain leg opener.
