360° tour to Australia in December

The Music Network said the band will officially confirm the news we’ve all been waiting for when they announce new dates of their cancelled US tour.

Bono will be back on stage in a few weeks. This comes directly from Paul McGuinness, U2’s manager. Bono who is 50 had been operated on after becoming temporarily paralysed. By now you know this forced the cancelation of the North American tour as well as the headline slot at Glastonbury.

“He’s making a full recovery. The doctors told me he’s going to be fine. It was serious surgery but we expect him to make a full recovery. He’s pretty fit.” Said Paul during a recent interview.

McGuinness said there was no reason to believe the tour’s massive stage production had anything to do with the singer’s injury.

“Rescheduling the American leg is quite difficult because it is an outdoor show; we can’t do it in the winter because it’s the northern hemisphere.

“So what we’re doing now is trying to seek availability of the buildings that we had already pretty much sold-out, so we’re getting availabilities and routing a coherent tour for next summer in the U.S. and Canada. We’ve nearly done it so I hope we’ll be able to announce that shortly.”

McGuinness insisted the rest of the band hasn’t been enjoying an impromptu holiday while Bono recovers.
