OFFICIAL news regarding tour 2018
« on: November 01, 2017, 01:11:24 PM »
In May the band are back out on the road when the eXPERIENCE + iNNOCENCE Tour opens in North America. #U2eiTour

Just as the new album Songs of Experience is a companion to 2014’s Songs of Innocence, the eXPERIENCE + iNNOCENCE Tour is a sequel to 2015's iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE Tour which saw 'U2 reinvent the arena show’ (Rolling Stone) and was named the #1 concert of 2015 by The New York Times.

Tickets for the eXPERIENCE + iNNOCENCE Tour go on general sale on November 20th with presales opening on Tuesday November 14th. In a new development, designed to keep tickets out of the hands of scalpers and bots, this time around ALL North American ticket sales go exclusively through the Verified Fan platform. (Please Note: Every ticket purchased will include one (1) copy of U2’s new album, "Songs of Experience”, to be released December 1, 2017.  Be on the lookout for a separate email with instructions around how you can redeem your album(s). Prior to December 1, you will have the opportunity to pre-order one CD per ticket purchased. Once the digital album becomes available on December 1, fans will have the choice of either a CD or digital album at the time of redemption. One album per ticket. US/Canadian residents only. Not valid for Fan to Fan Resale.)

As usual, U2.com subscribers will be first in line with their own exclusive window when presales open - but U2.com subscribers must register as Verified Fans by November 10th. Read the updated FAQs.

Can you help me with interpreting this?  I would like to buy tickets to the opener in Tulsa, OK - which is not too far of a drive from my home in KC. I guess what they are saying is pre-order the tickets on the 20th and I will get a copy of the CD. Cool, I guess. Does this mean my U2.com fan club membership acts as the fan verification for the concert ticket purchase?

:)
Hold on, people! The man's talking about waste management. That affects the whole damn planet.

If there were any bridges in Phoenix, I'd be jumping off of one right now.

That is a very short list.  I'm pretty sure they will keep adding cities.  They only have a few North America cities listed.  They will probably go to Europe and everywhere else in the world, then come back to North America to finish off the tour.  PRAYING THEY ADD VANCOUVER !! I am very agitated right now though.

Agitated is a very nice word. I can think of quite a few more fitting words for my mood right now.

They did put in a Vegas date. I imagine they will hit AZ...I also assume this is only leg 1 of a multi-leg tour and will come back to the US.

Yup. Im going to wait and see if they add Vancouver and/or Seattle.
What are we going to do now it's all been said.
No new ideas in the house and every book has been read.

I really dont like this adding shows in dribs and drabs. Many fans are forced to shell out to travel to another state, only to find a show near home is added at a later date. All shows should be released at same time

Thank you. Could you please tell the people who are writing the schedule this?  :)

Yep. And for fans who actually live in the city, it's harder for them to get tickets because we have to compete with outsiders.
