  2. Originally posted by Jeef690:I do think they'll change maybe one or two songs before the end of the first leg. These guys will get bored doing the same thing (aside from Gloria, Red Flag, ABOY) each night. The "Experience" setlist can get switched up. The Fly (rehearsed), Showman, Wild Horses can all get slotted in there. Doubt Acrobat or Staring at the Sun will go anywhere. The encore has room to change a bit too, Bad and/or All I Want is You will make their way into the set, maybe after COBL.
    When was The Fly rehearsed?
  3. At the start of the rehearsals. First night anyway. Might have been there the second night as well, not too sure though.
  4. Was it not just riffs from the song as opposed to a full performance of the Fly?
  5. only the riff has been rehearsed
  6. And most likely that was only to test equipment.

    I get that, too... but again, you have to remember - that most of the people going night 2 are still seeing it for the first time. As far as I'm concerned, most people attending multiple nights are diehards and they (should, by now, anyway) know what they are getting. So... why are most of them still going? Because it's U2. It's U2 live. It's magical. It's momentous. It's church. It might be the same sermon, but it never loses it's magic...

    ...and if it does, well... no one is forcing you to go.

    And btw. do you like Zoo TV or Popmart tour? Isn't it boredom too?


    So you're saying you're not allowed to criticise if you're not involved? Ever sat at home and criticised a footballer for a bad shot or a tackle have you or any other sport of your choosing? It's just the same. In the case of U2 the criticism can be the reason you're not going (and the pile of crap album as well but that goes without saying).

    I think you've exceeded the legal amount of irony by asking someone who wants an in your face rock show that doesn't fawn over politicians and ceo's etc whether they enjoyed zoo tv - an in your face rock show that wound the crap out of politicians. As for popmart I gave my ticket away. I've told someone on here the hows and whys of that before but since i know a lot of you are niaive and easily offended it's a story best left unrepeated here.

    until the next thrilling installment mind your pitchforks.

    ???

    I will never understand why anyone wants to be in a place like this and waste so much time criticizing. If I really thought this album was a piece of crap, I probably would have said that once and moved on and away from this forum.

    I’m just jealous of anyone who gets to see this tour.
