ZOO TV Tour - North America Outside Broadcast

post under construction...

Tour Legs
: This program coincided with the 3rd leg of the tour which was labelled "Outside Broadcast" and totalled 47 shows in all. On this leg of the tour, U2 took the Zoo TV concepts outdoors to play in stadiums rather arena like the earlier 2 legs of this tour.

This leg of the tour is often referred to as one the greatest concert tours in the history of rock music.
Dates Covered in program: 11 Aug 1992 - 9 Oct 1992

However a number of concerts are not covered in program and some are on a different date to when they actually played. This is most likely due to further venues being added to the tour after the program had gone into print and scheduling issues.

Concerts not listed in the program are:

7 Aug 1992 - full show rehearsal at Hersey Park, Pennsylvania. Tickets when on sale the afternoon of the show for $15

Printing: Printing is on card paper. It has a matt finish rather than a glossy finish. The BP Fallon Q&A remains as do some of the pictures from the first 2 programs from the Zoo TV tour. New pictures include those taken at concerts of the previous 2 legs.
Cost: I think I was lucky with this one. I picked it up on ebay for $20.50USD in a auction and the copy is mint.

Normally you'll find this one on ebay listed for $50USD or more, so if you can get it for $30-40USD you should still be happy.
