From U2gigs page on the third show:
Songs from 13 U2 albums have been played during this show.*
The ONLY albums that this show is missing something from are Pop and Rattle and Hum. (And HMTMKMKM was basically a part of the Pop era, though not actually on that album) That is an achievement.
If you want to be stubborn and not count Batman as Pop, at least acknowledge that they've played a snippet of Discotheque on the 360 Tour that was so extensive, it contained the riff of the song. It's also no secret that they've played Angel of Harlem and Desire on this tour, and have also played Party Girl which was previously only available on Under a Blood Red Sky.
That means U2 have played their entire catalog on this tour. Not every song from it, per se, but they've given attention to every single album. Sure, they've given an unfortunately small amount to Pop, but parts of that album did make it to parts of the 360 Tour. I'm back to in-love with U2360. This is obviously and factually the most career-encompassing tour they've ever done.
*Granted, three of those albums are "Unreleased Songs", "Non-album songs", and "Cover songs"...that's still huge if you consider what I posted above about the tour as a whole. Each album has been represented, and even this show contained everything minus Pop and R&H. Achievement.
