Pop and Popmart in South America

[U2FanPeter]

Is it considered a success on this continent?

Do the band feel less pressure playing these gigs?

If you watch the mexico popmart video, then you wouldnt need to ask this question - great performance & atmosphere. 100% success.

Though I agree that the band feel more/less pressured depending on the location.

Popmart was a global succes, exept in the USA... The shows didn't sell out as fast as with other tours, but that's only because Pop was extremely experimental... I don't think there's any question about wether Popmart was a cool/good tour...

Popmart didn't do particularly well in Australia either.

For example, I believe Brisbane's attendance was 17,500. This tour, U2 are playing in the same venue to approximately 50,000 people (and it sold out in a matter of hours).
