While I was out enjoying An Evening with Colin Mochrie and Brad Sherwood at, of all places, the Detroit Opera House (or D’OH!, as Schmoe calls it), U2.com went ahead and released the tour dates ahead of time for the 1st and 2nd legs of the Vertigo Tour.The start of the tour was delayed, meaning some dates had to be dropped or rescheduled, which is probably why the US leg of the tour seems so short. Hopefully they’ll be coming to Detroit in the Fall; but for now it looks like we’ll be trying to get to the upcoming Chicago or Philly shows.
