Joshua Tree Tour 2019
Legs (1): New Zealand, Australia and Asia
Shows: 15
  1. Originally posted by RattleandHum1988:Lol, the only album U2 hate more than Pop is Rattle and Hum - so I highly doubt you'll get any of that. Maybe the usual Angel of Harlem and All I Want Is You, but otherwise- good luck.
    Rattle and Hum has been fairly well represented over the years, pop has almost entirely disappeared since after the elevation tour but 5 different R&H songs have been played since 2010 that’s pretty good going. More than a lot of there albums.


  2. As a long time fan of this band, I think that is a bad idea.
  3. They have essentially 9 to 11 songs to play with that aren't on the Joshua Tree.
  4. Predictions
    - 75% the same setlist as the 2017 tour.
    - There will be more Rattle and Hum representation on this tour than the previous two.
    - They will want to include E+I songs.

    That leads me to predict the following setlist...

    1. Desire
    2. New Year's Day
    3. Pride
    4. Angel of Harlem
    5. All I Want Is You --->
    6. - 16. [The Joshua Tree]

    [encore]

    17. The Blackout
    18. Lights of Home
    19. Beautiful Day
    20. Elevation
    21. You're the Best Thing About Me
    22. One
    23. Love Is Bigger Than Anything In Its Way

    + the occasional
    24. I Will Follow / 40 / Bad / etc.

    Starting off the encore in a similar manner to the European leg of E+I is likely and is a far better start to the encore than Miss Sarajevo. And AIWIY into Streets >>> Pride into Streets.



    Wishlist
    If it were up to me, the setlist would be much more of a throwback to the Lovetown Tour: begin with Streets, include lot's of R&H, and throw in a taste of the E+I tour.

    1. - 11. [The Joshua Tree]

    [intermission]

    12. Hawkmoon 269
    13. Desire
    14. All Along the Watchtower
    15. All I Want Is You
    16. Stay
    17. Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
    18. Acrobat
    19. Summer of Love
    20. Pride

    21. The Blackout
    22. Love Is Bigger Than Anything In Its Way
    23. 40
  5. This is a solid prediction, but what about Vertigo? Can they play a show without Vertigo?
  6. I thought about adding Vertigo to my prediction but it seems like 23 or 24 songs is the max for U2 these days. I'm sure it'll show up on the tour somewhere.
  7. If they incorporated R&H into the set list that would be incredible
  8. Max yes, it would be lovely if they break AIWIY and honestly they should play it. Love Rescue me too would be so nice. My pick if I’m using logic would be Desire and AIWIY.
  9. Is there any official confirmation that every song from the Joshua Tree will be played at every show of the tour, as was announced officially for the TJT 30 tour in 2017 ? I looked at the U2.com site but could not find it.
  10. Any hard info on Singapore? Really want to get this planned and booked
