Ok, so I have a question, what does U2.com subscribers mean? Are these the ones that payed for a membership?

 

[lauramullen]

Yes.

Yes, that would be people who paid for membership.

 

[Fernando-]

Yes.

Yes, that would be people who paid for membership.

Ok, thanks! Just clearing up everything, don't want any misunderstandings. Luckily I will be able to do the Banamex pre-sale.

Wow, they're actually announcing an on-sale date 9 whole days beforehand?

Usually it's like "pre-sale starts tomorrow, and general on-sale is in 3 days".

It's almost like they're actually putting some thought into their tour plans.

U2.com subscribers will be emailed with the presale information.

just saw this on u2.com:
U2 > Tours > U2 360° TOUR

presale group 1 - Friday Sep 24, 11am
presale group 2 - Sun Sep 26, 10am
public on-sale - Thurs Sep 30, 11am

 

[Fernando-]

Group 1 and group 2?

These are the groups for the u2.com subscribers?

 

[lauramullen]

I thought there was four groups.

Horizon, Breathe, Boots and Magnificent.

Me too.

Thanks I'll add it to the first post.

*edit or maybe not lol.. is it wrong?

 

[Pluspol]

well for nz + aus it was:


Group 1 (Horizon, Breathe, Magnificent, Boots)
Group 2 (Cedar)

5 groups.

It'll likely be the same as the Australian tour listed in the post above. Anyone who was a pre-existing member of U2.com will be in group 1.

I guess you should, that's how it's announced on the tour site.

well for nz + aus it was:


Group 1 (Horizon, Breathe, Magnificent, Boots)
Group 2 (Cedar)

That would make sense in this case.

 

[lauramullen]

So, no matter what U2.com group you're in, you can get tickets at the same time. What is the point of having the different groups then?

 

[Pop Artist]

I think it's probably because by this point the number of people in the first four groups who haven't used their codes is very small.

 

[corianderstem]

Also, maybe the people who are able to travel so far is smaller than other continents as well, maybe? At least for the Australia/NZ shows - didn't they lump the presales together like that as well?

 

[cleazer]

I'd also suspect that the number of current subscribers in Mexico is so small (especially compared to the size of the stadium) that it won't inconvenience anyone if they're all mixed together.

Perhaps all 5 groups will be used again when U2 has pre-sales for more subscriber-heavy areas, like Europe and the US.

Or maybe they'll just combine some of the groups when they release a new album.

You need to go. If only it weren't on one of the busiest weeks of the year for me.

 

[corianderstem]

oop. never mind!

 

[Pluspol]

I think it's a typo

 

[corianderstem]

(Edited because it was explained below)

 

[Pop Artist]

Yeah, I think 2011 is a typo because in a later tweet she says if you buy a u2.com membership today, you are in the Cedar group.

I know what you mean.

Ok, so that basically says: Members before (I don't know what she means by before) of 8/21/2011 7pm GMT (???) Group #2, all members who joined afterwards, CEDAR group.

Sorry, but that message was written with awful typing skills, I don't really get it.

 

[corianderstem]

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for clarifying.
