It seems like the rumor mill has been busy with speculation that U2 will be bringing their stadium show over to the US next summer. As reported on RTE and covered by U2log.com, Paul McGuinness has been quoted as saying that they’re examining this option for next summer.

It’s interesting that this is starting to surface now that the stadium shows have been proving successful. Back in May, there was conversation between music industry folks backstage at Bruce Springsteen’s concert in Boston that U2 were starting their plans for stadiums in the US. Apparently, promoters and other industry management are getting their summer concert ducks in a row for next year as there aren’t many stadium concerts hitting the US this summer.

This would mean that the Vertigo Tour would rival the ZooTV tour in regard to length. I know that fans would like to see them visit more countries instead of focusing so heavily on the US. Let’s hope they’ll extend to South America and Africa. (Although, the rumor mill has been quite quiet about that).
