At each signing, 150 U2. Tickets for the book tour go on sale here this Friday, Oct. As teens, they were inspired by Stiff Little Fingers and Joy Division but equally fascinated by Bob Dylan and Irish blues-rocker Rory Gallagher. In late September, in support of their book, U2 by U2, U2 had three book signings, one each in Dublin, London, and New York City. In these shows I’ve got some stories to sing, and some songs to tell… Plus I want to have some fun presenting my ME-moir, SURRENDER, which is really more of a WE-moir if I think of all the people who helped me get from there to here. I miss being on stage and the closeness of U2’s audience. In a press release, Bono offered an especially Bono-esque statement about the tour: The next day, Bono launches his “Stories Of Surrender” tour in New York, the first of seven dates in North America and seven more in Europe and the British Isles. The illustrious U2 frontman’s memoir SURRENDER: 40 Songs, One Story - so titled because each chapter is named after a different U2 song - is out Nov. Bono has a new book coming out, and he’ll spend the month on November on the road promoting it.
