i might be like the Black - Blood transition ..
and the Master/Slave introduction always gives me satisfaction .. not to the top levels of chills of Morricone's Once Upon A Time In The West (E Streeters walking on stage) but stil great effect of increasing the adrenaline for what it's coming

With these larger crowds I expected the sets to include more repeated hits , Betterman, DTE, Black etc.

If you look back to the 2011 South American setlists the same thing occurred: lots of hits.

Hey, if you are only attending one or two shows (probably a bit tougher to follow them around like in Europe or Eastern US) it's really not too bad - and it's better than simply rotating slots #2, 14, 15, and 25 (or even worse, 24).

PS: Why are you up so early on a Sunday, Nick? I'd say the same to you Ron but...time change.

That is a magnificent setlist. 33 songs already during this tour.

was i sarcastic? hehe .. still more changes than repeated
All Night, Footsteps, Red Mosquito are not so usual anyway .. Grievance returning after 2014 missing .. Riot Act seems the only "forgotten" .. for now

ps: 6 hours ahead Matt and already suffering for Inter (my football team)

So some big tunes to expect/hope for next show: Animal, Not For You, Spin The Black, Last Exit, Hail Hail, Present Tense, and In My Tree (which was omitted from all ten 2011 Latin American shows...tsk, tsk).

I recently read that EV hated (or once hated) the song "Glorified G" (which, oddly enough, was not played in Latin America the last two times around - nor in 2014). I suppose there could be a few reasons for this.

Not like you to miss a year of PJ, is it?

Hopefully we will all get to see them again soon enough!

Good grief. U2 also played a show last night (and on Friday!).

I had no idea.

No code has been quietly climbing my rank for 10 years. What a great album.

I had no idea.

And both, especially the Saturday show, were sensational.

Not taking away from U2, because my 8 shows were absolutely incredible, but they settled into a fixed set even more during the European run. Everyone lost their shit because Bono sang half of Zooropa over a synth , but other than that there's not been much changed. I do however still feel this is their strongest tour in years. They're in top form.
