If anything else is announced with Santiago, my money is that it'll be Porto Alegre, not Lima.
U2 Peru would be fun.
If they announce shows for Lima instead of Santiago, at least you will be close by, sort of. I'm jealous
what, you aren't coming anymore?
Yes, I will be there near the front of the line at Estadio Nacional waiting for you.
Please bring lots of local beer and some pillows.
Gracias!
ok... that sounded ackward... not that there's anything wrong with that
we can't drink in public places... but what the hell
Haha! You'll probably be the one waiting for me (to show up).
And, who says we're going to drink in public? All that beer is for washing our hair.
Just because you SHOULDNT drink in public, it doesn't mean you CAN'T.
Brown paper bags ftw!
if to happen show in Porto Alegre, the announcement will have to occur in 3 weeks or 1 month!
because:
T4F announces shows organized by it (São Paulo show, in the case)…therefore it possesss the rights of the show… after "sold out" shows organized by it, that they open the possibility of some another producer, in the case of Porto Alegre, a local producer "buy" one date…
will have show in Porto Alegre, the announcement will be after sold out everything in São Paulo!
it was what it happens with the Aerosmith: they had announced the show in Porto Alegre one month after to announce the show in São Paulo
Cool! Oakland-style!
Why can't T4F promote the Porto Alegre show?
the reform of the Beira-RIo Stadium will be made by sectors… i believe that it will not have problems in receiving the show!
Where'd you get 4-7 April from? The only rumoured date I've seen is 21 April ...
Ah right, I had thought similar things and was wondering if you'd heard any sort of actual rumours in that direction. If there is a Porto Alegre show, a gap to 21/04 seems kind of funny.
Imagine if the itinerary turns out like this:
25/03, 26/03: Santiago
(3 days of downtime: normal)
30/03, 01/04, maybe 02/04, La Plata
(6-7 days of downtime: a bit long but not too abnormal)
09/04, 10/04: Sao Paulo
(10 days of downtime: ... what?)
21/04: Porto Alegre
Maybe there really will be a Rio show at Engenhao in the SP/PA gap? That rumour wasn't very strong though.
Pretty lame really. I'd feel for anybody in Rio or Porto Alegre who buys a ticket to Sao Paulo, only then for a gig in their city to be announced.

There is little doubt in my mind that a certain amount of, for want of a better word, integrity has been lost in the outsourcing of so much to external corporations. Back in the days of Propaganda the tour and ticketing arrangements were much more fan-oriented with a feel of quality surrounding them than they are now. Like so much else in life the big corporates seem to suck whatever they can for as long as they can out of something. I hope they don't bleed this dry.
I may be wrong but can't help but feel that if it was U2 still running the show themselves they would have announced each continent in full (with the exception of additional nights at the same venue) at the outset.
