November 2009

Here is the rumoured South American itinerary reputedly on the verge of announcement, via @U2Chile (in Spanish): http://bit.ly/5NHrX1

 via web

Folks, a South American leg of 360 might be announced today. Rumour is April 2010, gigs in Brazil, Argentina, Chile.

 via web

Rome and Turin ticket sale information: U2.com has now announced the Italian concerts that TicketOne had previo.. http://bit.ly/6EetWd

 via twitterfeed

I assume U2.com means tomorrow, Tuesday… that would mean the presale will follow the usual pattern.

 via web

OK, just to be confusing, U2.com says Italy presales begin “tomorrow, Wednesday”. Hey, it’s still Monday even here in Australia!

 via web

2010 Turin and Rome shows have been added to U2.com and presales begin TOMORROW. U2.com still haven’t learnt anything.

 via web

@atu2 I’m sure you’ll understand if I trust ticket agencies more than I trust U2.com, the haven of wrong setlists, incorrect venues, etc! ;)

 via web in reply to atu2

@atu2 Wouldn’t call it a rumour when the ticket agency itself confirms it. Also, Rome is 8 October, not 10.

 via web

@golden254 Looks like Mexico will be announced soon, not 100% sure about South America though.

@Kim21012 Nope, at this stage it doesn’t look like there will be any Dutch gigs.

U2 to visit Italy in 2010 - 6 August, Turin and 8 October, Rome. Confirmed by ticket agency TicketOne: http://bit.ly/650DUk

 via web

RT @gambit_rex In the tiwtter of the Estadio Azteca says that the Mexico’s presale is 5th dec. by TicketMaster

 via web

At the Rock Hall gig last month, Bono snippeted Because The Night over B Day’s outro. Added to set. Thanks Chris for the tip!

 via web

RT @ImpulseDesigner rumor: U2 mexico ticket presale will be december 8th http://twurl.nl/xw6h3m

 via Twitterrific

Thanks to 2 Heathers, we’ve confirmed Elevation, 2001-04-10, Calgary had no Creep snip. It does have a Home On The Range snip. Set updated.

 via web

@U2start I guess during the band’s downtime, Universal have nothing better to do than go after the people who love U2’s music.

 via web in reply to U2start

U2 to visit San Sebastian in 2010: Rumours have been flying for a while that U2 would play more than just one S.. http://bit.ly/5F48QR

 via twitterfeed

Presale for San Sebastian begins TOMORROW, Wednesday 25 November. WTF. General sale on 1 December.

 via web

San Sebastian gig has been confirmed for 26 September 2010!

 via web

@atu2 …but yes, everybody seems to forget the charity festivals. Not just Tibetan Freedom. How about Live 8, just four years ago!

 via web in reply to atu2

@atu2 Counting Slane as a festival seems sheer semantics - just look at the stage, clear Elevation gig…

 via web in reply to atu2

@DreamOutLoud65 It’s not a rumour this time. It’s happening.

 via web in reply to MUSEified_gurrl

@LikeASong_90 Not “so far”. U2.com confirms Glasto will be only 2010 UK/Irish gig.

 via twitterfeed

Glastonbury will be U2’s sole UK/Ireland gig for 2010. Wow.

 via web

@u2miracle Thanks. Seems I’ve missed this newsletter. Matt

 via Twitterrific in reply to u2miracle

BTW, I can’t watch the Rose Bowl videos from U2official on YouTube anymore from Germany due to copyright limitations in my country!? Matt

 via Twitterrific

Watch them while you can. We got two more vides banned today. One more and the account will be shut down by YouTube.

 via Twitterrific

I’d like to say thank you for over 8 million hits on our youtube videos so far.

 via Twitterrific

Despite my skepticism, it’s true - U2 to play Glastonbury Festival, headlining Friday 25 June 2010.

 via web

@marcelogcs Not yet. South American rumours now indicate Oct/Nov ’10 again; if so, I doubt they will announce it this year.

 via web in reply to marcelogcs

@u2wanderer I’m wondering if some 2nd gigs won’t be announced until 2010. Not everybody’s rushing to buy tickets 7 months in advance.

 via web in reply to u2wanderer

Second show announced for Montreal: After the first show in Montreal (16 July 2010) sold out within 20 minutes,.. http://bit.ly/6DWqc1

 via twitterfeed

Wonder if Oakland is going to get a 2nd gig or not? I’m kind of surprised one hasn’t been announced yet.

 via web

So, Montreal is only the 2nd North American city so far to get a 2nd gig (17/07/10). Thanks to Tim C. for notifying us.

 via web

Press release from RFK Ripple Of Hope Awards indicates that the only song Bono performed was Redemption Song: http://bit.ly/2MKTjq

 via twitterfeed

I swear this really will be my last comment for the night. Montreal press release: http://bit.ly/1I4cAv (thanks @u2hibby!)

 via web

Of course, there goes U2.com, announcing the presales just as I refresh for the last time. Guess I’ll mainpage that, THEN sleep.

 via web

Alright, this is Ax signing out, since it’s stupid o’clock in Melbourne. If any more news breaks, Matt will handle it. :)

 via web

By 2019, U2.com will be proudly touting imminent ticket sales for the War Tour.

 via web

At this rate, next tour, shows will go on sale unheralded, then U2.com will announce “tickets went on sale yesterday” …

 via web

Ticketmaster page for Minneapolis gig (U2.com presale begins for Horizon at 10am tomorrow): http://bit.ly/O2GC6

 via web

Venue confirmed for 2010-07-16, Montreal gig - the Hippodrome (aka Blue Bonnets Raceway).

 via web

U2 to visit Minneapolis in 2010: It’s been the hot rumour of the last week, and now it has been confirmed - on .. http://bit.ly/33FBoz

 via twitterfeed

And yes, that East Lansing presale starts tomorrow too. Advance notice really does mean nothing to these people.

 via web

Presale info for East Lansing isn’t yet on U2.com but it is on Ticketmaster. It’s the usual pattern: http://bit.ly/2BoMB2

 via web

RT @dtrip01 ticket info sent to U of M students about 06/27/10 U2 concert at TCF stadium http://tinyurl.com/yzzts…

 via web

U2 in Minneapolis at TCF Bank Stadium, 27 June 2010, is a go.

 via web

@u2wanderer Ah well, what’s another late night!

 via web in reply to u2wanderer

I (Ax) am sure that as soon as I go to sleep tonight, U2 will spring an extra 2010 concert or two upon us…

 via web

Via @jpstarkey, 2009-09-21, Boston soundcheck also had Elevation and The Unforgettable Fire. Added to database. Thanks!

 via web

@Matkin22 I’m still working on cataloguing all instances of Hear Us Coming… had to put it on hold lately due to studies.

 via web in reply to EveryBrokenWave

Date for aforementioned Minneapolis show is probably 27/06/10, or at least in the gap between Edmonton and East Lansing.

 via web

Announcement of a U2 concert in Minneapolis “may” only be a few days away, folks…

 via web

@jaimearodriguez Yeah, the spokesman said probably Madrid or somewhere in the Basque Country.

 via web in reply to jaimearodriguez

On 27/10, a Live Nation spokesman claimed a 2nd Spanish gig location would be known in 10 days - well, we’re still waiting!

 via web

RT @atu2 Good article about cameras at concerns, w/lots of U2 mentions: http://bit.ly/JPn6z

 via Twitterrific

@RangerPete61 As long as tickets are still available for the first show, I don’t see NYC getting a second.

 via web in reply to RangerPete61

They’re definitely not fooling scalpers with last-minute announcements. They’re just screwing fans who don’t sit at their computer 24/7.

 via web

I (Ax) can’t be the only person who thinks it’s absolutely ridiculous that U2.com announces presales less than 24 hours before they start.

Finally here is Vertigo from the Brandenburg Gate gig: http://bit.ly/ZpmoD Thanks to FANTIE for sharing it with us.

 via Twitterrific

Looks like Viacom don’t like us to post videos taken around the Brandenburg gate. I just got one deactivated at our account.

Hey, U2? Go to Hobart in 2010 and play Van Diemen’s Land in Van Diemen’s Land. Cheers, Ax.

They just promised to show more footage of the gig later. I should have taken more photos then.

Magnificent on MTV now.

What a great gig. I’m really happy atm :). Got most of it on video and will upload asap. Matt

 via Twitter for iPhone

Matt was at the gig and will surely return soon with footage. I’ll leave everything in his capable hands!

 via web

I (Ax) am now off to bed - it’s stupid o’clock here in Melbourne, 5:30am.

 via web

Today’s full set and details on mainpage: http://bit.ly/z194P

 via web

MOS is done. That, apparently, is the end.

 via web

No Stay? Surprising. They soundchecked it earlier today.

 via web

Sixth song is Moment Of Surrender.

 via web

“We’ve gotta go now.” Bono gives a list of thank yous.

 via web

Vertigo count-in partially in German - “eins, zwei, drei” - then the Spanish “catorce”.

 via web

Fifth song is Vertigo.

 via web

Snippet of Blackbird at the end of B Day.

 via web

Surprisingly enough, that intro leads to Beautiful Day as the fourth song!

 via web

Oh hello, here’s the Celtic intro to Beautiful Day! This hasn’t been done since the first Boston gig, 20 September 2009.

 via web

@MickiMaynard To the best of my recollection, I think this is Jay-Z’s first appearance with U2. He has sampled SBS in his own sets though.

 via web in reply to MickiMaynard

Get Up Stand Up snippet in SBS, Bono and Jay-Z together.

 via web

Jay-Z is guest-rapping in Sunday Bloody Sunday.

 via web

Magnificent was a short version. Third song is Sunday Bloody Sunday.

 via web

@MickiMaynard It’s being broadcast in Germany, but on a bit of a delay.

 via web in reply to MickiMaynard

One was a bit shorter than normal. Bono didn’t do his usual shout-out of locations in Magnificent’s intro.

 via web

Second song is Magnificent.

 via web

First song is One.

 via web

Show’s starting. Bono thanks everybody for coming out in the cold.

 via web

@shkee23 The broadcast of the concert isn’t live.

 via web

Techs tuning guitars atm. 27 minutes to go.

 via Twitter for iPhone

Haha! Seconding the eeep. RT @U2log Apparently Hamish Hamilton is on stage right now. Eeeeep.

 via web

That last message was from me, Ax. I’m trying to keep myself awake here at 3:15am while Matt has a good time in Berlin.

 via web

I bet most people in the lead-up to a U2 gig listen to U2. Me? I’m enjoying blackened atmospheric folk metal demos. Mmm, incongruous.

 via web

I uploaded a YouTube video — Up close to the stage http://bit.ly/4n7Yxp

@nielstenhave U2 are meant to be on stage at about 6:30pm Berlin time.

Just Sunday Bloody Sunday.

Someone has a spare A for the gig today? It’s for the first girl in line.

 via Twitter for iPhone

Ax here. Matt and I will both be covering today’s Berlin gig. He’ll be on the scene. I’m in Melbourne… gig begins at 4:30am my time. Uhoh.

 via web

@stevelar No updates on an Australian tour at this stage, unfortunately.

 via web in reply to stevelar

@EdgeFest Given they did Edmonton x2 plus Winnipeg on Popmart, I’m surprised it may just be Edmonton x1 this time.

 via web in reply to EdgeFest

Also, due to weaker than expected ticket sales for the first Edmonton show, a second show has apparently been scrapped.

 via web

South America was rumoured for Oct 2010. Then March rumours gained pace. Now 4 Brazil shows rumoured for Nov ’10. Wonder what’ll happen.

Snippetwatch, Rock Hall gig: Vertigo had It’s Only Rock ‘n’ Roll. Added to set. Thanks @mduchek!

@dal975 I don’t believe that’s a snippet. It’s only one line of an improvised verse, and it’s not the exact lyric nor the same melody.
