  1. All in all, I think I like the performances in the 2012 Euro tour better than the 2014 one. This opinion may change over time.
  2. Second half of the new u2 is miles better than the first.
  3. From what I've been reading, you certainly aren't alone on this one, Dylan.

    To me, the first half is catchier and therefore has a bigger initial impact on a guy like me. As I alluded to earlier, it also might not help that I start listening to SOI at track 1 virtually every time.

    I should start using the shuffle feature on my iPod.
  4. I'm hoping they play Rival on this probably final (?) leg of the LB tour along with a few yet-to-be-performed-Lost-Dogs. I'm getting anxious to do a FULL 2013-2014 LB tour Compilation. It has the potential to be 10 discs long!
  5. Even if the rumours are true about South America and Canada in 2015 (a la 2005 and 2011), would the shows still be considered to be part of the LB tour?

    In comparison, the 360 tour went into a third calendar year but they really weren't playing much from NLOTH in 2011 so it was different in that respect.
  6. I hope they go to south America at same time as u2 so I can kill two birds with one stone
  7. Discussing U2's new album into the Pearl Jam thread... of a U2 forum.

    Nuts

    2 yrs on Id say no . To me , even now is it still really supporting LB ?

    I mean the LP was released over a year ago..and as solid as it is , the way the band tours now , few shows here and there , it just died .

    It really makes zero sense how they have toured since 2013 . They released LB , did a bunch of gigs in the US fall of '13..and that was that . 6 gigs in Australia Jan '14... June 2014 Europe..how is that supporting the album ? Has there even been a video since Sirens ??? That was well over a year ago..its as if they gave up on LB…DMB did the same thing with Away From the World in 2013 .

    I know they did they same thing for Backspacer , but still .

    The whole LP is just brilliant..Raised By Wolves , Cedarwood Rd and The Troubles I love to round out the end of this release….Troubles is too short..the solo is as if its cut..sounds weird to me….cant wait to hear Edge live on this one .

  11. I was quite tempted to go to Hawaii back in 2006..when PJ opened for U2..my Lord what a show !


  12. Well, if I am to be honest, the past two albums might not be great enough to merit a full on world tour.

    I'm not too sure if that last statement came out right as PJ is still one of the biggest R&R bands in the world but for many (myself included) I don't get too excited when I listen to songs off Backspacer and Lightning Bolt on the bootlegs (or even at the shows). Sure, they have their moments (well, at least LB does - Pendulum is awesome) but for the most part the crowds seem to be much more into their earlier stuff - and from reading the 10c forums, even the longtime, die hards would rather hear stuff from Binaural and Riot Act over songs like Supersonic and Let The Records Play.
