I'm liking the volcano stage idea lol. I wish they would hurry up and announce dates I need to book flights back to UK.

as they called the Volcano Tour then they will start with Bullet The Blue Sky as opening song

 

[pepokiss]

I think it should be called California Tour, or as I've said before, the Innocent Experience Tour

Yeah... perfectly logical sense

I like Matt McGee's idea: the We're In Yer iPhonez, Choosin' Yer Playlistz Tour.

The F*ck The World Tour has a nice ring to it.

Yes please! They could replace the Larry and his son pic with John Stamos hugging himself. "Songs Of Stamos-Sponsored by Nivia Yogurt"

Not sellouts by any stretch, though nowhere near the lows of Germany and Florida on Popmart.
Also worth noting the second Melbourne gig at MCG in 1993 drew 35,742 punters, nowhere near the capacity of that huge venue.

Only 40,000 at wembley? How many shows did they do at wembley on that tour?was there more then 3?

I think if you showed up at Wembley with your dole card (or whatever it was called at the time) you could gain free entry to this show.

I think if you showed up at Wembley with a Dole pineapple for Bono you could gain free entry to this show.

Makes sense.

Really?they would have no problem filling wembley if that was the case now ? what was the attendance for the 4th gig?

The 4th gig was a sell out. The dates on the 11+12th August sold out pretty quick so the 20th+21st were added.
I guess because it was the final Wembley show and also on a Saturday the 21st sold better and the demand simply wasn't there for the 20th.

A UB40 card (dole card) was the official name for the Government issued card given to the unemployed. You had to present it to claim your benefits at the local offices.

The Edge played 7-8 guitar solos a night during ZooTV. Why did they stop doing that? Now he plays maybe 1-2 a night. He should just start throwing solo's into random songs out of nowhere. Beautiful Day, Stay, Angel Of Harlem, COBL, etc. would all benefit from a good solo. Or why not a base solo from Adam? Have like a 2 minute intro to Volcano where Adam goes ape-sh*t for a few minutes. Or in the middle of some acoustic boring song like Stuck, Adam just goes in there and f*cks sh*t up. That'd make those acoustic sets a bit more exciting.

Because it took the limelight away from Bono.

I'm not even joking. Look at how Bono on 360 would always shout or hum or snippet over the top of Edge's solos, if Edge got a solo at all.

 

[U2girl]

And leaving conspiracy theories aside, it's likely because The Edge has had less solos on record after AB.

I'm talking about songs that are still in the set, where the solo is now either cut or Bono sings over it. Pay attention.

Bono flapping his jaw during Edge's solos really irks me.
