Once again, summer means Europe for U2. So on June 2005 the Vertigo tour lands in Europe for a total of 32 concerts, starting in Belgium on June 10th.
Itinerary is very similar to the previous one. Black and red cover but this time the white text is "V 2Europe".
As I explained on a previous entry, Vertigo itineraries are printed in more than black and white ink.
At the top of each page a U2 Vertigo //2005 logo is printed in black, white an red.
According to the book, U2 were in Brussels on the 8th of June and rehearsed that evening and also on the 9th. I'm not sure if they really rehearsed both days.
On Monday June 13th U2 had a day off in Cologne and they had a show/interview on the german TV. This was already confirmed when the itinerary was printed. After that, they left Germany heading to the UK.
On July 2nd, Live 8 was held at London's Hyde Park. U2 had a gig in Viena but they wanted to be in London so, after their appearance on stage with Paul McCartney, they left for Viena. They were expected to arrive at 6:45 pm but it seems there was a delay on their trip to Austria and the concert was also delayed.
On August 3rd, U2 flew to Munich where they were playing that night. After the show, they flew out but this time from Nurnburg. According to the book their plane had to re-position from Munich to Nurnburg while they were on stage.
Once again Nice was the place where U2 spent most of their days off.
