1. I'm not hopeful for anything new. How many songs are they likely to play?
  2. I don't know exactly, but most festival headliners do 90-120 minute sets. I'm predicting at least 1, maybe 2 new songs at most.
  3. Less.
    Coldplay, The Killers, Lil Wayne, Jason Derulo etc. all had 20-25 minute sets the last year, and there's no reason to think U2 might enjoy a longer slot. And you can't fit more than 4-5 songs in 20 minutes. I'd say 6 maximum, with no Bono speeches whatsoever (can you imagine!?).
  4. What kind of festival is giving their headlining acts 25 minutes to perform? That's ridiculous.

    Muse did 7 in 2013
  6. A "festival" so full of headliners and only one stage.

    What's ridiculous is... Who the hell spends >$400 in a ticket to see 25 minutes of their favourite band?

    Rich people.
  8. I watched Green Day and Muse perform there, so akward, bands like that should not play there
