U2 lead singer Bono had surgery on his back today in Munich while preparing for a world tour. “Bono has today undergone emergency back surgery for an injury sustained during tour preparation training,” his spokesperson told Reuters. “He was admitted to a specialist neuro surgery unit in a Munich hospital. Bono will spend the next few days there, before returning home to recuperate.” The status of U2′s “360 Degree” world tour — which is supposed to kick off June 3 — will be addressed after Bono’s “condition has been assessed further.”

“U2′s 260 Degree world tour?”
260 degrees seems like an odd choice. They should’ve kicked it up 100 degrees and gone all the way around.
typo -it’s 360
Yeah I know…it was my smarta$$ way of pointing it out so they can edit it.
Come on man, I have tickets for June 6th!
