U2 extend Vertigo tour

There are dates in 2006

U2 have announced the first dates of their ongoing Vertigo tour for 2006, including their first Australasian shows in eight years.

The ‘Vertigo 06’ tour will also take in shows around Mexico, South America and Japan.

U2’s last appearance down under was during the PopMart tour in 1998. The band decided against bringing the Elevation tour to Australia three years ago, saying the cost of touring the event was too high.

Dates for the Australasian dates are as follows:

Brisbane Queensland Sports & Athletics Centre (21)

Melbourne Telstra Dome (24)
