1. Barcelona 2 stays the best one, according to some guy from U2gigs.
  2. Good night all.

    See U 2 morrow
  3. Bit of a plain setlist want to see them push the boat out as much as possible although if they are saving acrobat for dublin ill be a happy man . till no sign of drowning man . Hmmmmm . Where's Bad ?


  4. Our German friend on Twitter seems to think they played solidly if not spectacularly if my rusty German is right.

    Good start to the tour these three gigs. Songs persisting in the setlist is a bonus if you think back to Popmart. More surprises will come, I'm sure.


  5. not shocked...it'll take a great show to beat that one....wouldn't expect it till a bit later in the tour
  6. So looks like cities with 2 shows get a safe set the first night and a slightly shaken up set the next. Thats my bet anyway

    What if we got only one show?

    I'm also a bit surprised by the omission of Drowning Man after so many rehearsals and a video of it on u2.com

    Plain only because it mirros Barca 1 I guess though. The setlist itself is not plain. (Bar the couple of songs we'd all like to ditch that they are simply not going to).

    My guess is they're still polishing songs. This is easily the best reviewed tour from what I'm reading since Zoo.

    Night 2 in Milan will yield a different song, I'm sure.
  10. Okay, tomorrow next concert, maybe we'll get some surprises then. I'm off, c'ya all tomorrow ladies and gents

    Agreed

    Agreed also

    If you only get one show then it will depend. For example over here I suspect Wembley 1, Sheffield and Glasgow will have different setlists as people can easily go to more than one show and Wembley 2 will be different again. I'm guessing (and hoping) that Cardiff may through some surprises too as it's the last night of the leg.

    If you have an isolated show with no other gigs nearby, then there may be a 'best of' variation.
