U2 are set to put a smile on a many a fans face as they have announced a 100-date stadium world tour over the next 18 months to promote their new album No Line On The Horizon, according to reports.
The Irish rockers will kick off their mammoth tour in Barcelona, Spain on 30 June (my birthday!), before heading to the U.S. in September, a source tells Billboard.
The band will stay on the road until autumn 2010, playing between 90 and 100 shows across Europe and America.
Guitarist The Edge says, "We're very excited about the idea to go on the road with this album. It's an album that I think is going to translate so well to the live context. The songs we've tried in rehearsal are sounding fantastic, so that's got everyone really fired up."
The official announcement of the U2360 stadium trek is due later today.
