For anyone doubting, read this: On the Beat: David Menconi on music - The U2 watch: Hang in there | newsobserver.com blogs
can't believe they would appear in such a small venue.
but I live in Greensboro, 50 min drive from Raliegh, so I'll be there.
Just got an email from UNC-Chapel Hill's atheltic department...Came with same picture posted in this article On the Beat: David Menconi on music - More "unofficial" confirmation of U2's Raleigh date | newsobserver.com blogs. I just want this to be officially announced...
Here is email:
Musictoday is the official pre-registration site for the Raleigh U2 concert. It is a secure site and any information gathered will be used for presale purposes only.
Presale pre-registration ends on April 9th. Within a few days after the sign up period ends, emails will be sent explaining the pre-sale, including the date and time. No specific information about the pre-sale is available at this time.

Interesting, presale ending 4/9, seems like it should be announced on u2.com pretty soon then and a presale for u2.com members around easter?

Just out of curiosity, are you a Ram's Club member or season ticket holder? I might have to hit up some of my Heel friends for a favor...
Oh man, I am just hoping hoping HOPING for this show to be real. I'm about two hours away from Raleigh so it would be very convenient! I've been there several times to see U23D in the IMAX, and it'll be great to see the real thing there!!!
I'm saving my presale code for this show so it better happen! I'm probably gonna try and grab some Charlottesville tix from the general sale tomorrow too.
Do we know which stadium this is at exactly?
I think the note said "presale pre-registration" ends 4/9, and indicates that instructions would come out shortly after that. I have a feeling this presale (for Wolfpack Club and/or whomever else) will be concurrent with the U2.com one; if pre-registration for this mysterious additional presale ends 4/9, I'd expect the presale to be the week of 4/13 (maybe u2.com one on 4/14 - 16?). Though I'd like it if we could get in before the football fans (sorry!) next week like you're thinking.
Hhhhmmm not so sure about U2 playing Raleigh. During PopMart they even cancelled a show there saying that the screen was damaged. I wonder if it really was that or the sales were simply horrible . You guys think they can sell out Raleigh this time around?
I am living in San Diego at the moment and I could jump for joy if they came here but at the same time I know San Diego ticket sales in a stadium were bad for Zoo TV and PopMart. Arena shows in San Diego are just fine but stadiums? Nope. So I wouldn't really cry if they didn't come to San Diego. I'll drive a few hours up to L.A., no problem. At least I will be in a sold out show (hopefully).
That site look pretty fake. Wufoo is a site to make internet forms--I doubt an official partner with U2 or Live Nation wouldn't be able to do this on their own.

Where did you get that link?
NJ, apparently you have insight into the intricacies of U2 and Live Nation that I don't. As a network security admin, I am aware of what wufoo is. I'll presume your attempt is to help others.
If you have a U2.com membership, NJ, you can see where I found the information:

Do I posit that I know the origins of the link? No. I don't suggest that I know the inner workings of U2 or Live Nation.
I found the link on U2.com forums and was simply trying to be helpful. Don't use it if you don't want. The last intent I had was to mislead.
Have a nice day.
