Where is this from? I guess they're playing Bonnaroo on the 9th if the above is indeed the schedule.

 

[prbiker15]

I'm betting on the 9th as well, but I still have my doubts about the schedule. We'll find out soon...

 

[Pop Artist]

Yep, we will be waking up to the news, slight chance of going to bed to the news... https://mobile.twitter.com/u2songs/status/818264144617111557

Already have my hotel reserved for Vancouver and Cleveland, although I'm not sure I'm hitting Cleveland yet.

 

[TinKnight]

I'm really hoping the Levi's Stadium show is legit. Traveling down to the Rose Bowl sounds excruciating, especially if doing GA....

Which brings me to GA or not GA? I had such a great time last time and I'm sure it'll be even more special with JT, but I'll be bringing my less-than-enthusiastic-about-U2 girlfriend with me and I don't think she'd be too into the waiting around 8-9 hours a day aspect of it.

 

[gareth brown]

no offence to your girlfriend but if she's less-than-enthusiastic about U2, then GA. with somebody else

I've had the same conversation a fair few times with friends about how we've taken ex partners to gigs out of obligation or something when we know full well they won't enjoy it. you spend half the gig (not to mention a day lining up if you're into that) distracted and worrying that they're not enjoying it/in a sulk, on top of being up in the seats when you could be down in GA enjoying yourself with a friend who actually likes the band!

 

[Axver]

Or go by yourself.

I normally go to gigs solo. No need to worry about what anybody else wants to do, where they want to stand, whether they're enjoying themselves, etc. It's great.

 

[TinKnight]

Going alone isn't an awful idea. However, while less-than-enthusiastic she definitely likes them enough to probably want to go and she does enjoy JT. If it was SOE I'd definitely let her skip like for SOI (which she's come around to actually like, ironically enough).

 

[gareth brown]

oo yeah, definitely a lot to be said for going alone! first two London IE shows I saw were alone, like most gigs I go to actually. but yeah, going solo can be very fun! like Axver said, no worrying about anyone else. you're best mates with strangers singing together by the end anyway.
And when you're not wild about a song the trip to the bar and back is mercifully hassle free.

that said, since it sounds like your girlfriend enjoys U2 to an extent, do GA with her and she'll most likely walk away converted.

 

[prbiker15]

I love going to concerts alone. Still haven't been alone in a stadium, though.

I try to avoid GA at all costs, but if I do it, I don't line up hours in advance. Walk in about half an hour before the ticket time and just roam around the floor - I hate being at the front.

And for those who like being at the front - like me, because my eyes are fucking shithouse - arriving only half an hour before gates also works perfectly well unless your life's mission is to be on the rail. I got third row in front of Adam at one Melbourne show, and on the rail behind one of the Red Zones, by doing that. Easy as piss. And because the stage is so damn high, third row rather than the rail actually meant less craning of my neck.

Oooooooooooo THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME..........

Wonder what the stage will be like. I also can't imagine they'd only do 11 songs with the effort of a stadium show.

So looking forward to this , finally get to hear Red Hill Live ????? But why oh why Twickenham ?????? out of Wembley , London Stadium , Twickenham they choose the worst ground to get too and worst ground for acoustics

 

[Shawn Bonneau]

The Edge's interview with Rolling Stone was just released and "Acrobat" was mentioned as a possibility!

Initial plan was to wait for whenever they tour Experience in arenas, but the thought of getting to hear Red Hill and Exit live has me reconsidering. I really do think hearing them in arenas has spoiled me for life.

Decisions, decisions.

 

[cleazer]

Shit and doubleshit, I'm going to be out of town next week for the on-sales.

Unless you want GA I wouldn't be too concerned. The shows most likely won't sell out in all markets stubhub will have tickets

[clerks]

Last tour didn't they talk about playing albums in full one night and the next night a new album. so I guess they finally remembered their own idea.

 

[Sicy]

UGHHH Mumford and Sons. Why couldnt I get OneRepublic or The Lumineers

 

[corianderstem]

Holy shit, I can see this twice. Vancouver AND Seattle - I am agog!

Why is there no TJTT 2017 forum open yet?

Anywayz... psyched about the new tour. Reading the interview with RS I hope they do a bit of revisionism and do a setlist with only pre JT songs before building up to the full album in sequence.
