Christa --

Zoo TV opened February 29, 1992 in Lakeland, Florida. The Sydney shows were
November 26-27, 1993.

As the tour played to different sized audiences and on different
continents, they changed the name. There was the basic "Zoo TV" tour; there
was "Zoo TV: Outside Broadcast." When they got to Europe in summer, 1993,
it became the "Zooropa" tour since the album was about to be released. When
they got to Australia in the fall of '93, it became the "Zoomerang" tour,
and when it ended in Japan, it was called the "Zooshi" tour.

The entire thing lasted from February, 1992 to December, 1993 ... and
technically the whole thing can be called the "Zoo TV" tour.

Hope that answers your questions.

Matt
