U2: Changes for final leg of Vertigo tour

U2 are on a short break from the second North American leg of their Vertigo world tour, which allows the group to evaluate some of the changes it's made to the show. Guitarist The Edge told us that the group wanted to do more than just repeat what it had done during its first swing on these shores earlier this year:

The Irish band will resume the Vertigo world tour on Monday (October 3rd) in Boston.

They will release a concert DVD called Vertigo 2005: Live From Chicago on November 15th. U2 will also appear on the Live 8 DVD, which comes out November 8th.
