    Explorers caught me on the video MUCH MORE than it's done the 2 times I've witnessed it live.

    Those times are long over, Alex. I wouldn't worry for that Crowds are much relaxed nowadays, maybe except France and UK. But you wouldn't have a problem in the US I bet. Look at this, 3 years ago: http://en.u2start.com/topic/by-post/335430/

    And seeing this gods of music rocking in front of you is something that should be mandatory for every human kind.

Seems as though they are rotating Map of the Problematique and SBH as the second song and play both when Map is in the set, but only SBH when it is second. Guiding Light, Interlude, Hysteria and Animals have all rotated in and out the last few nights too. Stockholm Syndrome was played a few nights ago and missed two shows - hoping it comes back in Brisbane.

    I'm hoping you get some Stokholm love. In my opinion the lack of SS at every show is the biggest fault of the whole tour, it's like U2 not playing Streets. Besides that, I think they're doing a nice rotation between Citizen Erased, New Born, Bliss and MOTP - so hopefully you'll get your favorite(s) from those
  4. Map and Bliss would blow me away. Stockholm would be great too. Only been out at 1/4 Australian shows so here's hoping!

    Are you a girl or a boy?
  6. One thing that really annoys me about Matt is that you can ALWAYS hear him breathing in in the microphone

  7. Yeah, once you notice it for the first time, you hear it every time and it's infuriating.

  8. He doesn't use a standard cardioid or supercardioid microphone like most singers. He uses an omnidirectional mic that's still able to pick up his voice when he turns his head away from the mic while screaming (he does it constantly, so it didn't took long to find an example - 2:50 here http://t.co/24FZ0K0olA) - that's why the sound of his breathing comes through more easily that most other singers'. It doesn't annoy me, in fact it sometimes helps me to know where I should pick up some air while singing.

  9. Boy.

    And before you tell me to man up, I would like to say that I attend concerts to listen to music, not to throw punches.
  10. Didnt get a chance to write a review earlier, but the show was fucking crazy good. Going GA this time was a lot better, crazy crowd. We got Bliss and New Born which was nice, but no Hysteria or Stockholm Syndrome WTF???? All the screen effects started playing for SS but then Matt said something like "we cant play this one" and they skipped it. At the end of the concert he said "see you soon, 2016" so they must be planning to head back into the studio after this tour.

    Damn them Melbourne setlists are crazy good, Agitated, Fury, CE. Lucky bastards
  11. WHAT?! The video effects for SS started and then Matt cut it out?! Really?! Oh my God. Glad you had a great show and you got Bliss, but... WTF, seriously.

    Yeah, Melbourne setlists have been out of this world.
  12. I went to the melbourne show n Friday. It was awesome!
