    PS: I heard thru a friend who has a black Labrador Dog who once happened to take a crap on Bonos front lawn who happened to overhear Bono arguing with Ali about the OZ Tour that was confirmed stuffing around with their plans for a family ski trip in the French Alps! MAKE SURE U MENTION THIS RUMOR !! ITS CREDIBLE!

    I think you are wrong the band could wait until June ,July to announce the tour and it would still sell out maybe they were advised to hold off for a few weeks because of Queen's tour announcement and maybe they are trying to finalise a few venues before putting tickets on sale I do believe they are intent on touring Aus,NZ this year because the website peddling it have been right in their other predictions we'll wait and see.
  2. I genuinely believe that they haven't finalised certain dates/venues - so no announcement yet.

    Best stay out of this thread. Check your email periodically for updates from u2.com regarding official news, announcements and updates. It would probably be less stressful that way.

    Macau still seems a bit odd to me.
  8. I would seriously give Macou some thought on those dates.
  9. Singapore will get two.

    Seeing most tickets these days are selling between 60 and 130+++ bucks. Not even counting all the golden circle and platinum, and vip and redzone packages!
    I can't imagine a stadium being a huge problem for bands like U2. Like at all. Haha hahaha.

    35 euro for the venue? that's quite a lot.. this tour will certainly have additional production and logistical costs and only around 15 shows to break even and/or make profit.

    Using the Amsterdam shows on the I&E tour as an example half the venue capacity at 35 euros over 4 nights would be €1.2million give or take to cover the venue costs. The band brought in over $7.6million whatever that translates into € at the time. They won’t break even on this rumoured tour they’ll make a substantial amount of profit. They’ll gross probably at least $70million using the vertigo tour shows in Australia/NZ/Japan as a guide taking into account also the increase in ticket price since then. It won’t cost anything like $70million to put on 15 shows. As an example 360 the most expensive tour in history cost $850,000 a day to run show or no show, even if we used that figure with the rumoured dates they would still be making about $40million profit.
