Calm down...it's just a rumour.

Here's the link, anyone care to translate for us non-Italian speakers?
U2place - Rumors: Il prossimo tour partir? dall'Europa?!? - Le notizie in italiano sugli U2

Is there a (credible) source or is this pure speculation?

[mikal]

wow. so much for me not looking at setlists and not listening to bootlegs. that's too long to wait.

good for you Europe. it's been a while since you got a start of a tour. wait, have you ever gotten a 1st leg?

 

[last unicorn]

Stop it. I'm on a diet.

 

[Y2K]

Well, the article seems to say the single is "Get On Your Boots", not just "Boots".

 

[Rasden]

All real!

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

ooh good more freaking out will ensue... joy..

 

[The_Edge89]

good for you Europe. it's been a while since you got a start of a tour. wait, have you ever gotten a 1st leg?

Boy/October/War tours all started in Europe according to u2gigs.com if I interpret it correctly.

 

[last unicorn]

So what Paul McGuiness said about Barcelona in June was the truth.

They'll start the tour in Spain.

I hope he meant June 2009.

I would be inclined to agree. I cannot begin to tell you how many times I've been told this. (And thanked for it)

 

[popacrobat]

time to save up for some euro flights

 

[LemonMelon]

Just gives me more time to save up for the US gigs. Awesome. Here's hoping.

January 19 sounds like a realistic date for the first single, so I can accept that.

 

[The_Edge89]

Oh, I see what this is about.
Teasing old-fashioned people that don't want to rely on machines to do our work for us, huh?
Of course I could've done that but Google translations hardly make sense in my opinion.
Thank you for giving us something to get started with though.

 

[Lila64]

I would be inclined to agree. I cannot begin to tell you how many times I've been told this. (And thanked for it)

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

yeah, the 19th makes more sense to me too.

 

[atomicman]

YES
