The Baffling Itinerary World Tour rolls on, as expected
They really hit the Midwest market heavy. I don't get it.

KC with 7,341 available reserved seats and lots of GA as well.
As for Phoenix/Tempe, I think it probably has to do with the timing and being outdoors, it's damn hot there even in May and September!
Part of me thinks that are hitting these markets because they think it will bring out the older, more casual fan that might not be as engaged or excited to see a tour of the newer material. So they get 40 thousand or so people to see them in these softer markets now, and when they come back in 18 or 19 with SOE in arenas, they don't worry about Kansas City, Louisville, St. Louis, etc...
Is Detroit GA sold out? I can't see a way to purchase them on the partner site
Indianapolis GA floor sold out day one!!! WOW!:
I'm still pulling up GA on the app.
Looks like San Diego is the only US show that sold out.
I honestly think Bono really wanted to bring this tour to Trump voters. That's the only thing I can think or to explain some of these choices
I was thinking the same thing.
Foxboro (the show nearest me) sold out so quickly and always do so I didn't really try. But there are still GAs available for Buffalo as we speak. I'm going to be in seats because I'm going with a casual who has no interest in GA. But I made her get tickets right at 10 and there are a TON left. And we all know what happened with my other show, Pittsburgh. Maybe it's me...
Either way, Buffalo, in my experience, is one of the best places to see a U2 show. They rarely go there so there's a special type of buzz in the air. The locals are super friendly as well. When I went in 01 they switched up the setlist as well.
Have fun!
Detroit GA sold out, and from what I can tell, also Minneapolis GA

If Atlanta doesn't get a JT30 show added in the next few weeks, they should be an obvious stop on the E+I tour, assuming arena availability.if i were a betting man, which i am, e/i will be very similar to i/e... New York, Boston, Chicago, LA, Toronto, Montreal, SF/SJ/Oakland... and then maybe a few additional major markets who didn't get played last time... DC, Philly, Vegas instead of Phoenix... and that's about it.
if the shows were never going to sell out, why couldn't they have just played some baseball stadiums instead?
.
Yea, but they did 360 in a couple of baseball stadiums, so they certainly could have done this one... especially in smaller markets.I think the monstrosity of a screen may make baseball stadia during the season a no go, fear of damaging fields etc. with little time to repair.
Plus baseball parks mostly suck as concert venues.
Except U of Phoenix Stadium where the Cardinals play has a roof and AC.
And Cards' home opener is Monday 9/25, so Phoenix could slot in nicely between St Louis and San Diego.
