U2 TOUR HOAX




















U2 is looking out for you. The band has posted a statement on its website warning against "tickets" being sold for a nonexistent tour. Bogus ticket offers have apparently been making the rounds online, purportedly for a U2 summer tour that was never on the band's agenda. "Please don't get stung by buying tickets for a show that doesn't exist," says the band, adding the assurance that any legitimate tours will be announced on the site "as soon as details are confirmed.

So, now that the band has stepped up and put the lie to this scam, surely we can expect it'll just be a matter of time before they put those other scurrilous rumors to rest, the ones about writing songs for a Spider-Man stage musical, right? Um...right, Bono? Edge? Guys?
