U2 Joshua Tree Tour 2017 / 2019 No Ticket Sales

PTH2009

If anyone saw u2s Christmas message they mentioned that 2017 will be a huge year for the band. Songs of Experience will be released and there will be 'special' shows to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Joshua Tree album

I wonder what and where these JT shows will be played ??. Have a feeling they take place in big cities such as London, Paris, New York, LA, Sydney etc. Obv Dublin could get a show but they might shock people and play a show/shows in the Olympia ( tickets will sell in a flash), maybe those 2 Croke Park shows next summer are saved for u2 ???

Yeah I got my Sat night ones last week too ,no sign of Sun yet though.
Came in a white envelope with a clear window with Livenation plastered across it ,not very subtle ,as Mr Postman might have decided to go to the gig

any takers ???

a few u2 mega fans have been outside the stadium where the band are rehearsing and have posted day by day spoilers of what the band are rehearsing on https://www.atu2.com/

tour starts Friday night (prob 3am/4am Sat 13th May our time)

I might try and stay up and follow it live, but part of me wants to try and blackout all tour related stuff for once and go into Croker without a clue what the show's surprises will be.

That would require will power though....

Looks like Miss Sarajevo will be a staple though

I Will Follow, Electric Co, Out Of Control all have to be in the set

Frank Bullitt

Ill be at opening night here in Vancouver tomorrow.

I am...excite.

Have heard them practising outside the stadium, sounds whopper.

johnpatrick81

Should be great, they should have most of the songs on this set list fairly solid by now :P enjoy!

To spoil....or not to spoil...

Ah who am I kidding.. I'll be looking at crap YouTube recordings as soon as they're up

xper

Yep, I am going unsubscribe from this thread now. Want to try seeing a U2 show with minimal knowledge of whats coming for a change.

Have to say i am shocked that the second Dublin gig never came to be. Cannot fathom it at all. Glad I hedged my bets and bought Sunday Twickenham tickets! :cool:

Mentioning any of those should be banned on here, please.

They are already erecting the stage in Seattle so it seems they have more than one stage for the tour ,which is the norm.
Probably only one screen ,speakers and lighting set though .

As this is a smaller tour I wasn't sure if they would have 2 stages.
However now that we know this ,the excuse that they can't get the equipment from Barcelona to Dublin on time for a gig on Friday July 21 is a blatant lie.

With the Rolling Stones not taking the third concert slot could we see a second gig in Dublin on the Friday ??

Seve OB

Looks like a typical Irish stadium..... they forgot to finish one end of it. The lads should feel right at home

You know what, stranger things have happened. Not quite as close, but they announced Slane 2 completely unexpectedly.

It's a beautiful stadium ,I was actually in both it and BC Place last year .
The end behind the goal has hardly any seating in it and you can walk right up to the barriers from the street and see right into the stadium,which is very strange.

I think it will happen.
I remember the Slane 2 ticket sale well.
I went off on a long lunch break from work to watch Wimbledon on tv in a pub ,next door to HMV ,and missed the whole bloody thing.
Came back from lunch to find out the concert had been announced and sold out ,but luckily one of my buddies was on his lunch break and passed Golden Discs and was wondering what the massive queue was for so he got me a ticket !

johnpatrick81

Haha I was pretty much the same, a mate just happened to be driving past the local ticketmaster outlet when they announced it on the radio!

Prob the days before fan club pre-sales and stuff. These days The fan club would have to get dibs on tickets first before any public dale

Night 1 in the bag so! Exit sounded incredible bar Bono losing the run of himself and been a bit wobbly at times.

Screen looks insanely vivid and clear too!

Last 5 songs are a bit Meh. As good as the new song sounds, I hate them not ending with a classic. Go out with a bang!

There was massive delays at the turnstiles so perhaps they started late and had to cut some stuff out.
