  1. Originally posted by Blue_Room:I seriously doubt there will be any major changes for these 2 shows. Probably the greatest hits version of the setlist that includes Pride. The South American shows will get Mothers Of The Disappeared but that will probably be the only different song of significance there.

    Changes in the setlist order or songs wont come until the N. American shows and they will only be significant if there is indeed a new album. I'm not holding my breath.


    Agreed for the most part, but with 3 shows each in Brazil and Argentina, i wonder if there will be at least perhaps one sort of rare song or some kind of interesting change on one of the nights, besides the usual 2-night setlist shakeups.
  2. "U2 CAN ROCK ON THE FAN WALK
    by Big Concerts on Tuesday, 08 February 2011 at 07:43

    Cape Town, February 8th:- WHEN the fans begin to stream towards Cape Town Stadium for the much-anticipated U2 360° Tour Concert at Cape Town Stadium on February 18th, the 2.4km Fan Walk will be again activated with entertainment - this time as an integral part of the City’s rock music experience.

    Sponsored by 8.ta, SA’s newest mobile network, the U2 Fan Walk will present an exciting journey for fans and locals alike and will include large print murals depicting the band’s illustrious history as well as iconic elements from some of their best-selling albums.

    Apart from murals set along the entire route, other elements will include a stage with a screen back-drop at St Andrews Square setting the scene for DJs and a VJ while rock bands will appear from a roof-top on Somerset Rd, emulating U2’s video shot in LA of the song “Streets With No Name”.

    Additional elements along the route will include sky-beams, cyber stilt-walkers, a marching band, mist-tunnels and activations from KFM.

    “While it is one of the most enjoyable and safe ways of reaching Cape Town Stadium from the City we believe the Fan Walk will also be an experience on its own, providing a unique sense of the City along with entertainment elements paying homage to U2,” says Lesley de Reuck, Director of the Cape Town Stadium.

    The Fan Walk also winds its way through some of Cape Town’s most vibrant neighborhoods with numerous restaurants and nightlife spots ready to cater for fans before and after the concert, creating an exciting and memorable experience in Africa’s most inimitable city.

    Presented by Big Concerts and produced by Live Nation, the U2 360° Tour concert on February 18th starts promptly at 7.30pm with gates opening at Cape Town Stadium at 4:30pm. The Fan Walk will activate at around 3.30pm.

    While Waterkant Street will be partially pedestrianized, still allowing cars to use these routes, Somerset Road and the inbound section of Main Road Green Point will be fully pedestrianised from 4.30pm on February 18th, allowing fans a great rocking time on the Fan Walk. Full details of road closures is obtainable at www.capetown.gov.za or at 0800 65 64 63.    "

    But I also see that the possibility of them playing it live is like I will meet Bono in the street


    No Line 2 really isn't much different from the No Line they played in 2009.
  8. Wouldn't be surprised to hear a soundcheck or two on Friday.


  10. It's time for a legitimate South American DVD, honestly. "360 Live from Buenos Aires" would make a great U2011.
  11. i agree, fantastic crowds of argentina or brazil would make a great dvd and 3 shows each to edit out 'mistakes'. lets hope.
  12. next dvd will be a mix of Sydney, Mexico City, Boston, Chicago, Rose Bowl and bonus something from Slane

    sorry i'm still angry for the Duals stuff LOL
