U2 Cancels July Philly Show

North American tour put on hold until 2011

Bono, the Edge and the rest of U2 wonโ€™t be making their way to Philadelphia in 2010 as originally planned.

North American summer dates for U2โ€™s 360 Tour were called off Tuesday due to Bonoโ€™s recent back surgery, according to U2.com.

โ€œAlthough we understand the disappointment to U2 fans, first and foremost comes the recovery of Bono,โ€ said U2 tour producer/promoter Arthur Fogel, CEO of Live Nation Global Touring.

Fans were encouraged to hold onto their tickets because the Linc show would be rescheduled for some time in 2011.
