Its 14:00 there so I think 7 or 8 hours away.

Of course not. I'd like it too.
I only found it remarkable that, after the commercial failure of NLOTH, they unofficially changed their tactics and DO look back the past, more than ever.

They did not do so at the beginning. Look at all the new songs in 2010 for instance. But it looks like they have been rediscovering the 90s for a few months now.

"Para los temas ‘Walk on’ y ‘One’, Bono y The Edge decidieron un mash-up (fusión) y Adam Clayton los secundó con los últimos acordes de la primera, algo que Bono aderezó con algunos peculiares coros.

“Quiero que después del uho, uho, suene tres veces ‘One’ para que en ese momento se vea en la pantalla la palabra justice (justicia). Hemos trabajado en esto y había pensado que así queda perfecto, así que quiero esperar cuatro segundos, tres, dos, uno y entra el intro de ‘One’”, explicó el líder de la banda a su equipo"

That means they've tried a new transition between Walk On and One, and consequently no more Tutu. So sad.

Changes are good, and Tutu was getting a bit boring imo.

What kind of transmission? With the band on stage or a video?

For the songs Walk On and One, Bono and The Edge have decided to do some sort of mash-up (or fussion), with Adam Clayton playing the last notes of Walk On while Bono spices it up with some backing vocals... "I want the word 'one' to sound three times after the last Ohh Ohh's of Walk On, and then the workd JUSTICE to appear on the screens. We've worked on it, I think it fits perfectly. I wanna wait four seconds, one, two, three, four and the intro for One comes in" , the vocalist explained to the band.

Indeed. And personally I slightly prefer hearing whole new songs to bringing back older ones cause I already have enough bootlegs where I can hear those.
But that's just personal, I know that.
(Which doesn't mean I'm not excited about hearing reïncarnated Pop-songs of course)

Anyway, when does this show start at CET ? 3AM ?

sorry if it's a bit off-topic, but I just have to share this here because its gig-fever all over again:

Exactly 18 years ago this evening I was returning home from the Feyenoord Stadium in Rotterdam, Holland. I celebrated Zooropa with U2 in "the Kuip" for 3 consequtive nights, including Bono's birthday on the second night (for which at that time I even donated money to the Dutch fanclub to buy Bono a present). Those 3 nights were one of the highlights of my life then and I vividly remember them especially at this moment!

Excited to see what the Mexico shows will bring!!
