Subscriber ddarroch 54 Posted July 5, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted July 5, 2019 Nah, not odd I wouldn't think. Melbourne sold out quickly (though they've reconfigured it, & added a few more seats & GA), but won't get another show by the looks of it. Auckland 1 sold out extremely quickly, but Auckland 2 sales appear to be very disappointing. These are both far bigger venues though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber ballardmama 33 Posted July 10, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted July 10, 2019 Just 622 rear GA tickets left. A slow go, but more sell every day. Since everything except rear GA sold very quickly, you'd think Live Nation would reconfigure or reprice those tickets to sell the show out. Seems like there was a great demand for everything except those rear GA that are numbered. I'm wondering when Live Nation is going to make the call to add a second show or not add another show. What a shame for Korean fans if U2 ends up only playing one night there after all these years of waiting. I'm still hoping.... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Little confused on this thread with the count down on how many GA tickets are available. Given the show didn't sell out quickly and there are still tickets why would the promoter i.e Live Nation invest in a 2nd show there and have it not sell well especially when it's the last show. My guess is by now they have all the logistics set for that being the end but given it's 4 months away, maybe not. I am still surprised there was no show in Beijing or Shanghai but guess they didn't want to play China Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber ddarroch 54 Posted July 10, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) I guess there's a lot of hopeful people. I agree it's wishful thinking, & very unlikely the will be another show, but you never know. The seats (which were very low capacity compared to other venues) sold out quickly. The GA's which is pretty large, like most venues has been a slow burn, even the front GA wasn't particularly quick. Yeah, given the Chinese government's stance an human rights, there's a good chance U2 wouldn't want to play there. In any casez it's almost a certainty that they wouldn't be allowed to perform in China. As they performed at the Tibetan Freedom festival.

Good point(s) on China but they (U2) also try and break the barriers so I figured they might play but your point on Tibet is definitely valid. I just thought a month tour was awfully short given the production so thought maybe China, or extending to South Africa, South America, etc. Maybe they will slow boat the production for a few shows in 2020 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Subscriber jonno77 36 Posted July 19, 2019 Author Subscriber Share Posted July 19, 2019 (edited) I’ve emailed live nation korea today and they said: “We don't have any plan for second show right now. Thank you, Live Nation Korea” The use of ‘right now’, could mean not ruled out completely but looks very unlikely. Edited July 19, 2019 by jonno77 Spell Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The U2 songs site is reporting that we might get an announcement on whether a second show will take place later this week. Finger crossed! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
