I not in the country on these dates doooh. I will probably have to wait for the 3rd leg and hope that they will come to SE America somewhere, that could be September. But the first leg does have plenty of gaps to add in new shows. Full list here. http://www.u2.com/highlights/?hid=72

I might try and get tickets for London, I think it'll be hell getting tickets. They also say "It's very likely that extra shows will be added when these first ones have sold out."
Im struggling to afford anymore ROCK this year, got 13 gigs planned already and am now skint, and Glastonbury tickets are on sale soon!

I am a member so should not have a problem they have always got me tix in the past (even for Ireland) more shows will be added for USA (13 is no where near enough) but not more locations in UK. In the past they have always done at least two in London so will not suprise me if a June 19th/20 gets added. There will also be another block of dates to come for another trip around North America then possibly onto Australia and maybe Japan.
Gents fancy a trip to Florida in September. |

I can get U2 tickets 10am tomorrow onwards, they go on general sale on Friday. I have a code and link to use on ticketmaster. I have no chance of getting to these shows (Europe or N.America), so I'll have to wait for the 3rd leg. |

| http://onsale.ticketmastereurope.com/U2/ is the link, but your better off calling me if you need any login details or confirm address stuff, oh and of course the code. U2.com say they have reserved the best seats in the house for this presale. |

We have now got tickets for U2 in London! Big thanks to Chowie for helping us get em, cheers.
Anyone who would like to join us, weve got Pitch Standing tickets for Twickenham on 18th June (saturday before Glastonbury) - they are on general sale friday.
Cost an extortionate £62, but will be worth it, and Im hoping for some good support bands too. Any news on who they may be?

Looks like we were lucky to get tickets, loads of people struggling on that website you told me about: http://forum.atu2.com/forum.src?Action=Subjects&Topic=19
Kings of Leon would be pretty cool. We saw em at Glastonbury and they played a few too many new songs for us to really get into it, but i like their new CD. Would hope for at least 2 quality support bands. Doors open at 5:30 so they'll be plenty of time.

Yeah thats just on the pitch tickets, some seated ones seem to be more cos 1 bloke reckons he paid £96 for 1.
Think they may be a fiver cheaper in some other places, but they were all roughly the same price. They broke down as £55 each, plus £22 service charge(not sure if they charged this as £5.50 per ticket or £22 per transaction), plus £4.95 postage. So if you were to buy 1 on its own it would cost at least £65.45!

As one of the beneficiaries can I also thank Chowie for the use of his code!
The most expensive gig I'll have been to, but also hopefully one of the best.
Cider's coming home...

I've hundreds of emails today with people having problems using ticketmaster with that code from around the world. But they have promised they will sort anyone who emailed them with a valid code. How will ticketmaster cope on Friday???
U2 is the best show on earth even if you don't like the music so much. The last 3 tours have been amazing, I'm sure it will be worth the money. The two support acts the last time a saw U2 were Coldplay & Red Hot Chilli Peppers. I'm a bit gutted you will see them before me (I may have to wait a further 4-5 months) get me some photos please. With pitch tickets you'll have a chance of getting inside the oval stage/walkway, sample layout here.
