London
(ANI):
Irish
rock
band
u2
have
cautioned
their
fans
that
some
fraudsters
are
selling
bogus
tickets
for
their
concerts,
to
be
staged
as
part
of
a
purported
summer
tour.
The
'Beautiful
Day'
hitmakers,
whose
new
album
'New
Line
on
the
Horizon'
is
scheduled
for
release
in
March,
have
revealed
on
their
official
website
that
they
have
yet
to
confirm
plans
for
a
tour,
and
so
any
concert
dates
being
touted
online
are
fake.
"Please
don't
get
stung
by
buying
tickets
for
shows
that
don't
exist," the
Daily
Express
quoted
a
statement
posted
on
the
group's
website
as
reading.
"You
can
be
sure
any
future
live
announcements
will
be
made
on
u2.com
as
soon
as
details
are
confirmed,"
the
statement
added.
This
is
the
second
time
in
six
months
that
the
band
have
had
to
warn
their
fans
against
buying
counterfeit
tickets
circulating
on
the
Internet.
In
August
last
year,
they
were
also
forced
to
speak
out
to
correct
reports
suggesting
they
were
preparing
to
hit
the
road.
