This is where I got bored


ENCORE 1 - PopMart looking U2 walk out onstage as PopMuzik is played over the P.A., they grab their PopMart looking instruments and make everyone crazy, happy, and possibly angry as they calmly play a full band version of...
22. Stay (Faraway, So Close!)
23. Seconds (U2 do everyone over with another acoustic, but finally...)
24. Mofo
25. Discotheque
26. Please (Edge falsetto's the outro of Please while switching guitars as the lights change from green to red)
27. Where The Streets Have No Name
ENCORE 2 - First 1.5 minutes of Zooropa are played over the P.A., the screen turns blue with a ring of gold stars around it as a figure in all black dances as The Edge plays guitar)
28. Zoo Station
29. One (snippet)/The Fly (snippet)/Acrobat (snippet) (Bono straps on his guitar, ready to play The Fly but The Edge begins One so Larry gets up takes Edge's guitar and plays The Fly on guitar perfectly while Edge stares at Larry. About the time of the second verse, Edge gets fed up, unplugs Larry's guitar and begins to play Acrobat. Bono yells at Edgethat he forgot the lyrics to Acrobat. All this time, Adam has been sitting back watching the show. He puts his bass down, walks over to Edge, clubs him over the head, and drags him backstage. He comes back and brings Larry and Bono back there too. He then instructs Dallas Schoo to make sure none of them leave until Adam has finished, he then goes back up and plays...)
30. Bass Trap
31. 4th of July (meanwhile Larry has bribed Dallas to let him up so him and Adam jam out on...)
32. Mission Impossible Theme Song (all of a sudden screams are heard from backstage, apparently Bono has beat up Dallas, leading Edge to beat up Bono. Edge explains what happen and joins Adam and Larry for...)
33. Return of the Stingray Guitar (Edge, Adam, and Larry wave goodbye)
ENCORE 3 - Bono and Dallas are mad at The Edge because it was all his fault so they go play a couple songs together
34. Every Breaking Wave
35. One
36. Walk On/ Fuck You, It's Over (snippet) - they start to play an acoustic version but they the sound system dies and Larry appears on screen and says "Fuck you, it's over."


-now that I think about it this may not he a "perfect" setlist, just a setlist to get my ideas out -

23. Mofo (segueing into...)
24. Where The Streets Have No Name

now, i don't care if you're a casual fan or not; you are simply not allowed to leave a show with a setlist of that calibre feeling disappointed.
