U2 to visit Belgium in 2010
When U2.com first published the list of 2010 European tour dates, an introductory paragraph listed Brussels along with the countries U2 are confirmed to be visiting. Furthermore, a venue map for King Baudouin Stadium can be found on U2.com. Naturally, this generated more than a little speculation that Brussels is one of the extra cities in U2's 2010 itinerary.
Well, confirmation of the rumours has now come. On the Belgian Live Nation website, a gig is listed for 22 September 2010 at King Baudouin Stadium.
Interestingly, the page on Live Nation's site also says the concert will go on sale at 9am on 17 October 2009, just about a week from today. Presumably, a fanclub presale next week will precede this. Yet there is currently no announcement on U2.com, despite Live Nation's confirmation.
By the way, if you happen to be hoping for a U2 gig in Switzerland in 2010, you may be interested in this Zurich venue map that can be found on U2.com ...
Update 10/10: Now it has been announced on U2.com, with news the presale begins on 13 October 2009.
