Well, just listen to the bootlegs and visit a show and judge after that.

Off the record: I'm hooked to that 'new U2-song' which is played as intro and outro on that U2360-trailer.

I mean, this is only the FIRST concert of the tour
I'm sure the setlist and the show itself will go through many changes by the time we reach the end

More importantly, complaining about the setlist after one show? Deary me lol!

Originally posted by robotsandmonkeys:I don't know, if you look at their previous tours, their set lists stay pretty much the same through the whole tour, often having about 3-4 songs they switch out when they play a single city multiple times. Seems Drowning Man, Sometimes You Can't Make It and maybe (pretty please) If God Will Send His Angels are going to be the switch-out songs.

I bet Drowning Man will be switching off & on with The Unforgettable Fire
Sometimes will be switching with City of Blinding
and If God Will Send (or acoustic Mysterious Ways) will switch out Angel of Harlem

and that's pretty much going to be the tour. Just a guess. But I, for one, was hoping for more Zooropa, Pop, just surprises. Go down the setlist and for the most part it's "new song" / to be expected...except for Ultraviolet and The Unforgettable Fire.

Now what would make me jump out of my seat is suddenly seeing songs like
- Dirty Day
- Love Rescue Me or Heartland
- Shadows and Tall Trees
- Mofo

THAT would be NEW...

Playing something from Zooropa is very difficult. Only Stay, Numb and First Time are suitable for a cracking live performance. And I don't think Drowning Man will switch with TUF, but with In A Little While.

Originally posted by goduke15:Ya, I'm getting slightly sick of people complaining already, which probably isn't a good thing because there's a long way to go...

Not to mention the fact that there are people, like me, who have yet to go to a U2 concert and are going for the first time on this tour. Now, I'd like to see some rarities like everyone else, but I've also never experience streets or pride live, and if they drop in from the setlist then maybe I never will.

Originally posted by MWSAH:I bet you would have add Ultraviolet and TUF too...but they ARE played so I would be happy with that. Who could imagine they would play Ultraviolet and TUF???

Exactly by the looks of it, Ultra Violet might be here to stay with all the props they've put together...

*sits and prays*
