U2 Elevation Tour - U2 Are Coming Back Again

from Spin Yes, but will there be lemons? That is the important question. Irish rockers' U2 are finally about to finish up what seemed like a never-ending tour sweep of the states this coming Friday. And now, 'tis possible they might soon return for more. The band heads over to Europe after this U.S. run for a string of 33 dates there. And after that, according to Pollstar, the band's management is saying there is a good chance they might come back stateside for another string of dates here.

All of this is in support of U2's most recent album, All That You Can't Leave Behind, of course. But don't expect large lemons and scary mirrored objects flying through the air on this one, no. The boys have been taking it down a notch this time out. Not so "flashy," if you will. No fly costumes. And such.
