    Especially when they have the TJT17 tour film yet to come out! Release that, and play the a TJT32.5 tour to mark the launch of the tour DVD / BR.

    I’m not really the biggest fan of hits albums tbh but it would make sense when promoting a tour that doesn’t seem like it’s going to be directly linked to any album. Also it would be the perfect way to get a JT dvd out there as I mentioned in the same way 18singles had Vertigo Milan. This would be the 4th hits/best of In about 40 years of being together, sounds about right to me when you have artists releasing hits albums after 10 years or so. Could stick a couple of new songs on it as well. It’s only a theory though, how they market the tour is neither here nor there to me, TJT17 dvd I am desperate to have though.
  3. How about Seoul? Very close to Japan. One of the highest average incomes in Asia. That's probably where my money is on.

    I think Seoul too.
  5. Auckland - Tokyo = 9000 km, Tokyo-Dubai = 8000 km. Tokyo to Hawaii in 2006 was also over 6000 km (and still is ).

    Well JT for sure was a bit of money grab (as Europe and US are the best markets for them, and they only focussed on that) so its not like U2 seem to be scared of that anymore.

    The difference is that U2 won't go to Tokyo from Auckland. They'll go there from Singapore
