U2 frontman Bono has spoken about rescheduling the final shows on the group's Vertigo World Tour during a television interview in Australia.
Bono hinted that the remaining dates, which were postponed last week due to a family illness, would go ahead in November, saying that an official announcement would be made early this week.
Speaking to 'Enough Rope' host Andrew Denton, Bono, who is currently on a family holiday in Australia, said that he couldn't go into details as to why the shows were cancelled.
"There was a lot of distress and angst and (the) good news is... I can announce tonight we are coming back, looks like November and that's a great relief for me," he said.
"I didn't want to leave Australia without having that hammered down," he continued, adding that the rescheduled shows would be "extraordinary". He said: "It'll be the only time we get a chance to play these songs for a long time."
