U2 Reschedules North American Dates to 2011

As was reported last week, Bono had to have back surgery after injuring himself during rehearsal for their U2360 tour. Unfortunately, U2 has announced that all the North American Dates up to July 19th are being rescheduled for 2011:

Tour promoters Live Nation have confirmed that the 16 U2360° shows from Salt Lake City on June 3rd, through to New Jersey’s Meadowlands Stadium on July 19th, will be rescheduled for 2011.

U2 tour producer/promoter Arthur Fogel, CEO of Live Nation Global Touring, said, ‘Although we understand the disappointment to U2 fans, first and foremost comes the recovery of Bono.’

Additional details on rescheduled dates will follow shortly and fans are encouraged to hold on to their tickets. We’ll have all the information on U2.com as soon as it’s confirmed.
