U2.COM : 'Africa's Future'

'U2 in Johannesburg - the real greatest show on earth.'

'U2 give Cape Town a concert to remember...'

A wave of great reviews pouring in following the U2360° shows in  Johannesburg and Cape Town. And on our tour pages, fans who were at the show are adding their own reports and photos.

After a One Campaign symposium while in South Africa, Bono spoke to The Observer newspaper in the UK about  why he believes the continent is on the brink of becoming an economic powerhouse.

'We are all aware of our ancient pasts and this continent has a rich and extraordinary tradition. But the thing that excites me more is thinking about Africa's future – as the continent of the 21st century.'

In a striking editorial the paper says that  'A fresh chapter is opening in Africa's history, a new continent is emerging...'
