JT 31 downunder it is.
I can't believe I'm going to say this, but: please stadiums.
how the fuck do you know
On the other hand, if U2 are going to kiwilad, they're going to play Forsyth Barr whether it's an arena or stadium tour.
This is true. So take my 'stadium' prediction with a grain of salt.
But you're saying there are whispers of U2's first ever show in Dunedin?
That would be fucking awesome, and they better do like they did in 1993 with 3Ds and recognise quality New Zealand output by getting some fine local supports. I promise you I will come to Dunedin if the support is right. (I might anyway. And, well, even without any gigs I'll probably be visiting in 2018.)
I'm still waiting for a Welly gig. Always a Cake Tin rumour. Always wrong.
It'll be Jay-z rapping over the lumineers
They'd never do it. I'd be surprised if they even bothered with the Sth Is, but two landings, unpacks, set ups, pack ups, take off in the Nth Is? I don't see it.
If you make it to Dunedin I'll shout you a whiskey. Just the one, mind. We're Scottish and tight.
I'll be petitioning to get the original Split Enz lineup together as one of the openers. Sell out twice as many shows that way.
The last two NZ tours had Kanye then Jay fucking Z.
Which were both fucking awesome....
If that happened, U2 would be the opener.
Hi all - sorry I've been bogged down working on a Katy Perry promotion. Expect some deep discounting very soon. Her sales are abysmal. Witness has completely derailed her momentum. Dainty will probably lose money after paying KP's upfront fee.
Anyhow - U2. I've heard the guys want to stay indoors and the promoters want stadiums. The issue with indoors is that they don't want to do an extended run - so one of three things will happen. One - we'll see indoor shows most likely next Feb/March - but a limited run. Two - they'll cave in and do stadiums probably in March. Or three - no tour again.
I personally feel from what I've heard over the months that they really want to do shows in Asia. Madonna did well in Asia and Guy would know there is demand for U2 in a few markets and there is a lot of disposable income to be spent on concert tickets. If Asia (even just Japan) happens we'll get shows - unless they surprise us all and announce shows in Tokyo/Osaka for the end of this year and call it a day.
In conclusion - still all talk. No action. In my opinion I'm feeling less positive than I was.
