  3. Damn nice find! But isn’t Alamodome an indoor venue as well?
  4. Think they are classing the Perth venue as an arena and not a stadium (the only arena show). Tokyo Dome is indoor too but think they class that as a stadium.

    Ahhhh that makes sense I see now
  6. Skydome in Toronto is a retractable roof. I'm not sure how to classify that. Amsterdam Arena is another piece of work.
  7. Pontiac Silverdome, Transworlddome, Olympic Stadium Montreal, BC Place Stadium and the Kingdome... there were a couple of indoor venues on PopMart, especially on the third leg as it was already close to winter in the northern part of USA and Canada.
  10. I wonder where the Lemon is now.

    Hero Lemon, Miracle fruit!


  11. That tour really affected the band the half empty stadiums in the US the sub par performances particularly the first couple of months and reactions to the Pop album made the band retreat back into it's safe zone it was the first time the press really went all out attack on them (R&H wasn't as vindictive),people now look back at POP and Popmart with a lot of positive memories but at the time the band looked unsure about what they were trying to portray or say treading on territory that a lot of people felt they shouldn't, with Achtung Baby and Zoo TV they looked in control and focused on what they were doing and believed in what they were presenting to their audience but Popmart felt like a runaway train that they never really could stop going off the rails

    And still they didn't abandon the POP songs and kept on performing them until the end of the tour - unlike what happened a decade later with NLOTH
