Would I lie to you?

I talked to Paul McGuinness the other day, last saturday, because he wanted to announce the 2nd spanish date, and he called me to my mobile phone... I asked him which would be the opener in 2010 and he told me that they're planning to rotate a bit more the setlsits, and the opening will be Zooropa most of the times, but every now and then they will throw the infamous Super Duper Dance Disco Trance Zooromancer remix of Rejoice, mixed with Cedars Of Lebanon. Without vocals, by the way.
Trust me.
Ah, and the encore will consist of 4 diferent Magnificent remixes played semi-live by the band, with vocals by Bono with some Daniel Lanois backing.
He wasn't serious, obviously

If they don't start rotating the setlists - Zooropa and the SDDDTZRR (Rejoice) will make Glastonbury rock.

Guess how the singles will be 
Originally posted by gavinfriday:I like Grace, a nice little gem, they should never play it live, it's too special for that, same as Promenade, Man and a woman and White as Snow
Originally posted by LikeASong:[..]PS. The SDDDTZRR thing made me laugh xD[..]Because that would be too much for our poor minds, we wouldn't appreciate the greatness of such show.
By the way, (and going [even a bit more] offtopic), I start to think that Songs Of Ascent will be composed entirely of remixes of Magnificent, Crazy Tonight and GOYB. Great album for sure

Disagree.The setlist is great..but they play the SAME SONGS each night.The last 4 shows from this tour it was exactly the same songs.Why bother to download a bootleg if its the exact same gig???But anyway,its not about the stage,lights etc..its about the music..I paid alot money for 2 shows at Giants Stadium..I had a great time both nights,but night 2 they played 20 out of 23 songs from the previous show.Pearl Jam just played 2 nights in Philly,night 3 is tonight,they had 2 repeats,59 different songs out of the 61 they performed over 2 nights.I went to both shows 10.27 and 10.28..that was fantastic.I dont need to see a 250 foot claw....I dont need to see a 250 foot screen,or a 50 foot lemon..no gimmicks..just the music..like the tours from the 1980s and Elevation and Vertigo.To quote Bono "I hope you like our spaceship.You all paid for it".That was from the Paris gig,07.12.09.How True.$250 for GA.Thats alot for one ticket.I paid $77 gor GA to see PJ,a bit over $150 for the 2 shows and heard 59 different songs.But my point is if you play the SAME city,you know U2 will have fans,like me,that go BOTH nights.I hate to say it,but its not worth it.Not to see the same gig.And not for $250 a ticket.

You were ripped off paying that much.
Just go one night. Simple. No-one forced you to go to 2 successive nights. And comparing U2 and Pearl Jam is a silly exercise in my opinion. They are so different; it's like comparing Christina Aguilera and Green Day.

I see what you are saying, they are very well different. u2 is more popular and likes big gigs while pj is a band that loves throwing gigs for the real fans. u2 can´t do that due to their position.
but, u2 could rotate more. I mean, out of 46 songs every night they play only 3 different then the night before. I don´t care about the order, it can stay alike. But for example, they could play 5-6 different form day to day. Rotate the encore opener (Ultraviolet and Zooropa for example). drop WOWY and put crazy tonight regular there. in the slot of crazy remix put a 90´s song (gone, LNOE or Mofo). The acoustic set can also have a lot more variation because it is just B and the Edge, they can have a total of 5-10 in their sleeves! See, there is already about 10-15 songs they haven´t played yet. I wish they´d keep the hits regular so the casual fans in the stadium are happy and the real fans get thrilled with surprises and pearls.
Imagine:
Get on your boots
(these three can rotate like in ZOOTV)
Breathe
NLOTH
Maginficent
B-Day
Elevation OR I Will Follow
Until the end of the world OR Mysterious Ways
I Still Haven´t Found
(acoustic set - 2 slotsfor a sea of possibilities heheheh)
Stay, Stuck in a moment, Desire, Angel of Harlem, Party Girl, Please, In God´s country, WGRYWH, Sometimes...
Unknown Caller OR ES rarely
The Unforgettable Fire OR A sort of homecoming
COBL
Vertigo
Gone OR Last Night on Earth OR Mofo
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Pride
Where the Streets Have no name
One
Walk On
Bad - very few times, special shows... otherwise leave this slot empty
(encore)
Ultraviolet OR Zooropa OR Discotheque
Crazy Tonight regular
All I Want Is You
Moment of surrender - 40 snippet
That´s about 40 different songs in the sleeves that I think pleaseures everyone ;p
PS: I love going to two gis of the same band just to see different song, i donpt expect the band to cange the whole set like PJ, but at least 5-6
