Just as I figured.  More US dates announced after the first leg of the US tour.  Seems they'll come back here before leg two in Europe. 

6 June, 2010    Anaheim    CA    US    Angel Stadium
12 June, 2010    Denver    CO    US    Invesco Field
16 June, 2010    Oakland    CA    US    Oakland Coliseum
20 June, 2010    Seattle    WA    US    Qwest Field
23 June, 2010    Edmonton    CA    Commonwealth Stadium
30 June, 2010    East Lansing    MI    Spartan Stadium
3 July, 2010    Toronto    ON    CA    Rogers Centre
6 July, 2010    Chicago    IL    US    Soldier Field
9 July, 2010    Miami    FL    US    Land Shark Stadium
12 July, 2010    Philadelphia    PA    Lincoln Financial Field
16 July, 2010    Montreal    QC    Venue TBA
19 July, 2010    New York    NY    New Meadowlands Stadium

Lots of gaps = room for shows to be added, though Toronto and Chicago will be one show only.  Pencil me in for Seattle.   :)

they sold out the finnish olympic stadium so fast that the band added a second show, due to huge demand for tickets.
the second one sold out within minutes too. i guess it's partially because they don't play other scandinavian shows this time.

Did you end up getting a ticket to one of the two?

Huh, I wish I had been paying more attention to this. Tickets for the Minneapolis show went on sale a couple weeks ago, so I guess now all the prime ones will be scalped for $700 or something like that. Great!  :roll:

But in all reality, the chances of getting something good from the get-go would have probably been slim anyway. At least that's my experience with Ticketmaster and high-demand shows. I'd probably have to end up pursuing other avenues anyway. Mind you, this is all assuming I really want to see them after all.   8)

Glad to hear you enjoyed it.  Did they play any new material?  Bono had mentioned adding a few new tracks to the set once they got back on the road.  I haven't been keeping up much since the Seattle show isn't happening for 9+ months  :?

that's amazing... all fans should be as passionated as the Italians!

anyway, Bono, Paul McCartney and Sting have been invited next year to sing in Machu Picchu for the 100 years of the discovery of the Inca's citadel:

sorry, it's in Spanish. I wish they would invite Robert Smith, too :roll:
