Brisbane Pre-Annoucement Party

[Shag On A Rock]

Just so you know, I read your post but I don't have many live songs. That's not really my thang.

I'm not ignoring you. I would upload it if I had it.

I have a question. Is it possible to create a ringtone out of a song that I've uploaded to my computer?

I have one Vertigo disk that Sken sent me but I'm not playing that particular one until after I've seen the show myself so I haven't saved any of it to my computer.

Can it connect to your PC via a cable.

 

[Shag On A Rock]

Yes

 

[timothius]

Yes

It should have come with a CD of software or somthing. You can transfer via that.

I got a brilliant midi of I Will Follow on mine via that way.

I've a question for Earnie or anyone else who knows - is there any set way in which a tour is typically announced, a popular day or anything?

In my experience Axver, the answer to that would be no. Providing all the legal jargon has been signed, sealed and delivered, the dates can be announced as and when the promoter/band management feel like it. I've had tickets up to 6+ months in advance for some gigs and I usually get all my tickets the day they go on sale, whether that is pre-sale or not.

I vaguely remember that tickets I got for Zoo TV Inside Broadcast and Outside Broadcast went on sale in the UK well before the actual dates as they did PopMart and the Elevation tour. They all sold out very quickly too

If U2 tickets for their Australian/New Zealand Tour go on sale in December for March dates, I'd say 3-4 months would be a reasonably normal timeframe.

I just wonder if they will play indoor here. The rumour seems to be saying indoor shows in Brisbane and Sydney. The demand for tickets will probably be huge so if they do play indoors, I can see a lot of people being left disappointed. What do you think?

I hope you don't mind an American crashing your thread. I just wanted to say two things:
1. I dreamt that The Monkees were announced as the opening act for Australia. (?)
2. I can't wait to get the announcement of the tour dates either! I am very excited for you and our South American friends...you all deserve to see this show!!!!

Vertigo To Continue

U2.com can exclusively confirm that there will be a Vertigo//2006 tour.

Vertigo//2006 will commence in early February with stops planned in Mexico, South America, New Zealand, Australia and Japan.

Specific details will be released over the next few weeks.

[ramblin rose]

Figured they'd announce this when Australia and New Zealand are asleep.


Can't wait until they wake up.

 

[miracledrug83]

OH MY GOD!!!!!

I CAN'T FUCKING BELIEVE IT!!!!!

U2 ARE COMING TO AUSTRALIA!!!!!!!


This has made my day and it's only 5:30am..... Congradulations to all our South American, Mexican and New Zealand friends as well... this is unbelieveable!!!!!

Don't want to steal anyone's thunder, but they're DEFINATELY COMING!!!!

[timothius]

Now that U2 has "confirmed" it, I guess we can email everyone again.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

Well, I was a day off...
I don't know what the deal is with actual dates etc, I thought at least a rough guide would come with the announcement followed by more detail locally. I guess maybe U2 are waiting to nail everything into place for the whole leg before announcing them, or we'll hear something locally sooner. Either way, I'll keep hassling.

Congrats to NZ!!! 13 years!

 

[Shag On A Rock]
