They're all 17/18 songs whereas the show was normally 20-21. I know in Amsterdam they shortened it for Bono's voice but no notes are down on VertigoTour.com for the Japan dates?
Bono had terrible voice problems during the December shows (a few were even cancelled). Crap, painful voice = shortened set. He just about got his voice back for the Point shows
