The Edge, Peter Gabriel Launch 'Small Places Tour'

With Amnesty International

Peter Gabriel and U2 guitarist the Edge have signed on as spokesmen for Amnesty
International's "Small Places Tour." Running from September 10 until the 60th
anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on December 10, the trek is
being described as "the most ambitious global music and human rights project since
1988's Human Rights! Now Tour."

According to a press release, "musicians will have many different ways to engage
with the tour, including performances as well as offering premium seating packages,
meet & greats and other unique fan experiences. Gabriel and the Edge are hoping the
Small Places Tour will represent the 'passing of the torch' to the next generation of
musician-activists."

Interesting, but U2 will probably be busy promoting the new album around that time. Maybe Bono (with Edge) performing ?

Acoustic Cedars of Lebanon?

I imagine U2 could appear at some point around when the album is released.

The article clearly states that not all participation is of the performance variety so Edge might not even perform at all.
