It is the climax of every live show, even the ones in which it is not played.

Well, not pee break status, but if they replaced it with something awesome, I wouldn't mind at all.

No big surprises in the main set, but there are a few interesting things to note from what I heard on the stream.

- A snippet of Where Have All The Flowers Gone? was sung in UTTEOTW. From what I heard, the snippet was quite long (please verify)
- Apparently, a pre-recorded recorded video was played during Beautiful Day in which space station astronauts sang some of the lyrics (please verify)
- Space Oddity was snippetted for the first time in a 360 Tour show (at the end of Beautiful Day). Although it has been played from the PA system at basically every show, it has never made it to the setlist until now.

soundchecking the fly is, imo a rehersal for glasto and if they are to play it there it will get a live outing soon.

Knowing U2, if they decide to play new stuff for something as big as Glasto, they absolutely HAVE to play it in front of a crowd first. They've only got one shot to make it work at Glasto, so there's no way they would go in without having played it live a couple times before.

Also, an insightful tweeter suggested that The Fly will be played at Anaheim 2 in order to make the final preparations for their Glastonbury debut. I hope this guy is right. If I get to hear U2 play The Fly at the first concert I ever attend... my life will be complete.
