    Oh ok, thanks
  2. Rehearsals have started

    City Of Blinding Lights (extensive rehearsal)
    One Tree Hill, in Simon's words "hint only"
    Vertigo intro
    Moment Of Surrender
    Unknown jam
    One Tree Hill

    All without vocals and probably by the crew rather than the band.
  3. Let's hope they will play One Tree Hill at every show this leg.
  4. Yes! One Tree Hill for everyone
  5. Yeaaah, One Tree Hill Let's hope it will remain in the set
  6. I'm sure it will. I'm 99% sure it will. The band has mentioned it probably being in the set for the Aussie shows, and because they've been sound checking it that pretty much means they're going to play it. And it's not like Drowning Man and stuff that they didn't play even though they rehearsed, this one they've played plenty of times, so why wouldn't they?

    I dont' remember hearing that they'd soundchecked "One Tree Hill" nor mentioned they'd play it.

    But it is the NZ / Aussie leg. So it is entirely possible that they will play it -- just as they seem to ONLY play "Spanish Eyes" when in Spain.
  8. Bono has said that One Tree Hill will always be played in some form when they play New Zealand (The Zoo TV version was shakey IMO, acoustic at the end of One). I don't think this tour will be any different and it will be played at both shows in New Zealand. If that continues into Australia remains to be scene. It might pop up once or twice, but I doubt it will be a staple beyond New Zealand.
