uncut.co.uk: Whatever their forthcoming album, How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb, brings, it will be difficult for U2 to top their Achtung Baby/Zooropa/Zoo TV glory days of the early ’90s, during which the band produced arguably their greatest album and one of the most dramatic rock’n’roll stage shows ever seen.

However, the tickets - which ranged in price from £125 to £295, were removed when the site received a "letter" refuting the dates. [arrow more]
