Originally posted by robotsandmonkeys:Is it just me or is the setlist a disappointment? U2 was saying (in places like Rolling Stone) that they were going to really get put some standard songs to bed to play some new songs.
For me, Bullet the Blue Sky and New Years Day seem to be the only two songs they decided to leave out... I would have been happy if they put Pride away for a bit, same for One, as well as either WOWY or Still Haven't Found. I mean... we've heard these songs for decades at each of their shows!
From my "experience" of the concert (via the computer) Ultraviolet seemed to be the only moment that just transcended into glorious newness... that and The Unforgettable Fire returning.
But for the most part, the show seemed to lack the intimacy of the Elevation Tour, as well as the sheer overwhelming impact of the Zoo TV tour.
And this concerts answer to the technological playfulness on Zoo TV - the prank calls... the amazing "duet" with Lou Reed are:
a link to the international space station that ends with an astronaut signing up for the 1 campaign![]()
and people parading in masks of Aung San Suu Kyi![]()

HUH? Seriously, that's just ridiculous.
So, all said, I'm not really too impressed by this tour just yet. Let's hope for some more surprises.
And hey - NOTHING FROM ZOOROPA? How long are they going to sleep on that album? With this setup, LEMON WOULD BRING DOWN THE HOUSE! I say Ultraviolet into Lemon!!!!!!
