U2 ZOO TV Tour Leg 1 US 1992

Back on the road with a new sound, new shows concept and off course new itineraries.

ZOO TV travelled around the world on 5 different legs so I assume there are no less than 5 different itinerary books. Knowing that there are in fact 2 different itineraries for one of the legs, there has to be 6 books if not more.

The tour started in the US with an opening show on February 29th in Lakeland (FL) ending almost 2 months later in Vancouver. This first itinerary and its cover are obviously influenced by the ZOO TV madness. Colourful front and back covers with "Everything you know is wrong" message and artwork pretty similar to the one they chose for the "The Fly" single.

Inside, three different pages with trabants on it and one with a Keith Haring draw in order to make everybody breath ZOO TV air.

A piece of paper was inserted in order to update a phone number that was wrong adding the funny "Everything you read is most probably wrong" sentence.

Also a curious reminder to everybody: If someone doesn't pay an "extras bill" as leaving the hotel he will be charged double the invoice amount.

Crew was already in the States on Feb 15th waiting for the band that arrived in Florida on the 19th in order to rehearse between the 20th and the 28th both included.

After the final date, no details are confirmed concerning the return journey. Next stop, ZOO TV european indoors leg.



Bono signed this itinerary for me in Barcelona on October 12th 2015.
