U2 Tickets - U2 Debuts New Songs At Tour Opener In Turin, Italy Posted By: Pat Smith

Irish rock band U2 launched its postponed U2 360 Tour-which was scheduled to kick off in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 3-in Turin, Italy on Aug. 6. The show, which took place at Turin's Olympic Stadium, was U2's first 360 show since the band wrapped up the last leg of its tour in Vancouver on Oct. 28. Although fans were just happy to see Bono and Co. perform live, the members of U2 delivered a special treat in the form of new and rarely-performed-live songs. U2gigs.com reports that after opening the show with a new, mostly-instrumental intro ("Return of the Stingray Guitar"), the band performed a set list sprinkled with two new songs: "North Star" and "Glastonbury." Fans in Turin, Italy were also treated to the first performance of "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" since U2's final Popmart Tour date in 1998 and the tour debut of "Miss Sarajevo," which the band last performed during the final Vertigo Tour concert in 2006.U2musicconcertticketsrockentertainment
