All hope is not lost.
Today is supposed to be the most depressing day of the year but it was made extra depressing when barely anyone got tickets for U2’s summer concert when they went on sale this morning at 9am.
The only people who seemed to get tickets are those from the pre-sale group and whoever queued up at Ticketmaster outlets. Barely anyone managed to get them online.
So, naturally, fans are dying to find out if a second date will be added.
The Irish Times reported earlier that a spokesperson for the band said there are no plans for a second date but seeing as they’ve added dates to four other cities it’s only right that they do the same for Dublin, right?

This is the way it currently stands:
8 July – London, Twickenham Stadium
9 July – London, Twickenham Stadium* NEW DATE ADDED
12 July – Berlin, Olympic Stadium
15 July – Rome, Olympic Stadium
16 July – Rome, Olympic Stadium* NEW DATE ADDED
18 July – Barcelona, Olympic Stadium
22 July – Dublin, Croke Park
25 July – Paris, Stade de France
26 July – Paris, Stade de France* NEW DATE ADDED
29 July – Amsterdam, Amsterdam Arena
30 July – Amsterdam, Amsterdam Arena* NEW DATE ADDED
They’ve only left themselves one day between Rome and Barcelona and there are currently two free days between the Dublin and Paris gigs so surely they can squeeze one more in. Here’s hoping anyway.
