360º - North America 2009

post under construction....

Tour Legs: This program is the for the second leg of the 360˚ tour. This leg being the 1st North America leg that started on 12 Sept 2009 in Chicago and finished on 28 Oct 2009 on Vancouver Canada. Only 20 shows were played on this leg of the tour which makes it the 4th shortest North America tour leg over U2's history of touring there.
Dates covered in program: 12 Sept 2009 to 28 Oct 2009
No. of pages: 36 pages
Size: 28cm x 24.5cm
Printing: Printed on thick glossy paper throughout with extra thick pages around the Aung San Suu Kyi face cut out. However the pages are thinner than the thick pages from the Leg 1 program.
The minimalistic front and back covers are retained from the program from the first leg, but there are quite a few pictorial changes inside. We see a lot of concert photo's now replacing the promo style pictures from the first program. Of course these concert photo's were most likely taken during the first leg. So we get to the see the massive stage set up in more detail than the concept and design drawings we see in the first program, although the concept and design pages are retained for this program.
Cost: I think I got this one for $20 on ebay. I'm seeing less and less of this program on ebay, but when it does turn up it normally lists anywhere between $15 and $50 (some sellers are hopeful). As this program is still considered as recent, you shouldn't have any trouble picking this program up in great condition with little to none shelf wear and the thick pages would have helped protect it.
