I guess the failure to sell out the NJ show quickly is the only real setback to them though - i think that they would have expected to get a second show there.

I doubt it, because four soldout shows in NJ would mean a total of 320,000+ tickets sold from just four shows. U2's previous high for the NJ/New York City area was 271,000 from 7 shows on ZOO TV. I think they thought it was a possibility, but not very likely they would put on a second show given how many tickets they had already sold in the market.

Before tickets even went on sale for Toronto and Chicago, they stated shows in those cities would be the final performances, so they knew they were close to exhausting demand in those markets.

There are no multiple tickets left for Edmonton...they should add another show!
