I 'm extremely happy!
First, I wanna say I'm totally happy to know Bono is better :-) I went to Seatlle, once I had already paid the filght tickets and hotel last month....yes, I have the tickets to watch them there...then, I got extremely excited to know they already rescheduled the American tour. I'm from Brazil... and it was really hard to get everything arranged. But here I am ... anxious for next year!!!!

Good to hear from U2
Bono has no need to apologize. As long as he's in good health! I think we're looking forward to seeing them more than they are looking to seeing us! I'm glad to see Bono looking well :D In fact, he looks H-O-T! We love U2 music so much and looking forward to hearing it again next summer :D Much love XOXO Jennifer, Corpus Christi, Texas, USA

Take care Bono!
Bono - no apologies needed! The most important thing is your health, so take care of yourself first. We aren't gong anywhere! We'll be waiting with excited anticipation for your return in June in Anaheim.

see you in Viena
Thank God You're ok Bono. We really don't need any apologies. It's been a rough time for all of you guys. I've seen you in Dublin and Chorzow last year and can't wait to see you in Viena in August. Every little thing you do with music, you do it with all your heart, and that is so special about you guys. No matter what happens all fans will love you including me :) Take care Larry, Adam, Bono and The Edge :)
Best wishes...
...for bono and u2.

Early excitement
Glad to hear that Bono is recovering well and that you are all in good spirits! Like true artists you are diligently working on new music and that excites us all. Will we be fortunate enough to hear some of the new music on the North American tour? Don't get me wrong - love the old tunes - but an adjustment to the 360 tour setlist will be welcome (especially since we all own the 360 DVD and the concert is another year out). Long live U2.
Best wishes...
...for bono and u2.

Thanks for continuing!
I feel bad that Bono felt he needed to apologize for something that was likely unavoidable for him. I understand why he did. It must feel pretty weird for him to be at the center of grinding this huge tour mechanism to a halt, rippling through a lot of people's lives. However, I think we need to remember there are four human beings at the core of this movement, and there would be no tour if they didn't make the music in the first place. They are physically vulnerable, just like the rest of us. I work at a hospital, and I know that a compressed sciatic nerve is excruciatingly painful, and is serious business to repair and recover from. I don't think people realize the seriousness of his injury, and that other people might have not continued at this point, citing health reasons. Thanks, Bono, and U2 for continuing the tour.

Tour 2010: With or Without U2
I'll admit I was initially bummed about the postponement, but in the end it still worked out well. I decided to go ahead and go on my U2 tour for the summer with the planned trips to LA, Seattle, Denver and lastly New York next week. I choose cities to see the band based on where I have friends & family to see too, so I consider this a bonus vacation season. And good practice to choose nice hotels near the venues and figure out transportation. A practice tour, if you will. Yesterday was awesome as it started out with getting to know when I can see the band again. Thank you guys so much for the entertaining message! Looking forward to seeing you next year, unless I can squeeze in a bonus trip to see ya this year. Thank you for taking care of us fans. We love you! robin - bay area

Welcome back!
I'm so happy to hear you're well again, Bono. God, what a shock you gave us! Don't you ever do that again - either of you!! Now don't overdo your stage performance, Bono, we don't want you to go down again. I've loved your music - and you all - for 25 years. You don't need to apologize - we love you and we would wait for your full recovery for as long as it would take. I'm so looking forward to your concert in Denmark next month, though. Take care.. Love from Jeanett - Denmark
