U2 - U2 ISSUE WARNING AGAINST BOGUS TOUR

U2 ISSUE WARNING AGAINST BOGUS TOUR

Irish rockers U2 have warned fans against buying tickets for a purported summer (09) tour - because any proposed dates are bogus.
The Beautiful Day hitmakers are due to release their first album in five years, New Line on the Horizon, in March (09).
But the band insist they've yet to confirm plans for a tour, so any concert dates being touted online are fake.
A statement posted on their official website reads: "Please don't get stung by buying tickets for shows that don't exist.
"You can be sure any future live announcements will be made on U2.com as soon as details are confirmed."
It's the second time in six months U2 have had to make fans aware of counterfeit tickets circulating the internet - they were also forced to speak out in August (08) to correct reports suggesting they were preparing to hit the road.
