It's happening. It's really happening. U2 are coming to Australia!
Promoters Live Nation and Michael Coppel confirmed the amazing news this morning when they officially announced the dates for their Aussie tour.
Following the band's triumphant return in Italy last month after Bono's back surgery, the U2 360° Tour will play in four cities around Australia including Perth which will be their first show there since 1998's Popmart tour.
U2 manager says the band can't wait to bring their extraordinary rock production to Aussie fans.
"U2 [is] at their best when surrounded by their audience. It was important that we were able to bring the whole 360° production to Australia so fans could experience the latest of U2's legendary productions."
However, Adelaide miss out again. And judging by the reaction following Bon Jovi's snub, this is sure to get fans really fired up. And who can blame them.
Tickets start at $39.90, while additional reserved seat tickets start at $99.90.
Tickets go on sale Friday, September 3rd at all usual outlets. U2.com subscribers will be able to buy tickets ahead of the public on-sale. Go to www.u2.com for more details.
