Zooropa'93 Phone Contact Book


This is a new kind of book I recently discovered. In fact, the only two copies I've ever seen are exactly the same and belong to the Zooropa'93 tour so I don't know if this is a kind of book that U2 management has been printing tour after tour or it was only issued when the Zooropa tour did hit the road back in 1993.

It was issued to tour principals (band,  family members, managers, producers, etc.) so a very limited number of copies might be around.

This 11-page book measures 8 3/8" x 5 7/8" and is spiral-bound, with clear cover.















Under a transparent plastic cover, the first page of the book features a cartoon of the band playing on a stage with the Egypt pyramids and a text that reads: "IF THESE GUYS HAD BEEN AROUND WHEN THE PYRAMIDS WERE BEING BUILT - THEY WOULD HAVE TAKEN THEM ON TOUR."

Inside, it lists the name of all the tour members (including the band members), their contact address and phone numbers. I have covered all contact details in the pictures in order to respect band and staff privacy.


Information regarding a total of 241 contacts can be found on this book. Well known names such as Paul Oakenfold, Stuart Morgan, Joe O'Herlihy, Sam O'Sullivan, Dallas Schoo, Dennis Sheehan, Morleigh Steinberg are in the list.
