  1. The Ground Beneath Her Feet is a damn wonderful song but Id like to see it electric, not acoustic. The studio version is epic.
  2. Did you not watch "From the sky down" ? - Bono's solo version of The fly.Something like that I presume

    Here you go:

    Ground Beneath Her Feet is a beautiful song, I was listening to ATYCLB yesterday and can't understand that they didn't repleace songs like Wild Honey, Grace and Peace on Earth with Stateless, Electrical Storm and Ground Beneath Her Feet.
    Another day, 11 O' clock, tick tock, A celebration !!!
  6. I was just thinking U2 must be excited too waiting for Willie to give them the set list
  8. Some more from Peter from Interference:
    They are loading out Neil Diamond as I write this and U2 are ready to move in to Rogers Arena as soon as they are ready.

    Full set similar to the one last night. I still think there is a missing batch of songs to fill the rarity gap, the final part of the show(One/Ordinary?) and the other 20+ songs heard in rehearsal. I think the show is longer than this because they have a busy week with lots of travel & singing plus there are city/union/noise rules when the venue staff have to stop working at a certain time for non-public events. They seems to be working on the core part of the set, and hopefully the few wildcard slots can be figured out closer to the individual show dates.

    Ramone(starts with 15-20 seconds of vocal only "oh-ohs" then the guitar riff)
    Out of Control(Bono knows the words and added a bit in the bridge)
    Vertigo
    Follow
    Iris
    Cedar
    Song For Someone
    Sunday Bloody(last part of song has some political speeches and then a very loud sound of a bomb going off and glass breaking. IRA bombings 30+ years ago?)
    Wolves
    Until...World(final solo was extended a bit)
    --------End of Set 1------
    ZooTV-esque random edit 5 minute video.(also heard Clash snippet and what might be Thatcher talking)
    Album version of Wanderer played over PA with generic yellow screensaver type video. Siren from end of Zooropa CD signals is at the end of the song.
    -------Start of Set 2------
    Invisible
    E-Better(After conferring with another serious fan today it's the 2011 version)
    Mysterious (with Bongo intro and Talking Heads Burning Down House snippet.)
    Sweetest
    Every Breaking Wave(acoustic with long final note sung by Bono)
    Bullet (with rant including couple lines from Helter Skelter)
    WOWY
    Troubles (guitar solo is a bit longer)
    Blinding Lights
    Beautiful Day
    Miracle Drug(pre-recorded spoken word intro)
    Streets(with Bono sung "Fields of Gold" that is 45-60 seconds long)
    H-Found

    First set is under an hour and including tonight's intermission it's currently around 2 hours 15 minutes while at the same time obviously missing several songs spots.

    I suspect WOWY and Troubles have the string section.

    Tonight I hung out with a U2 hardcore Australian in town early. Last week it was hard core fan from Victoria Canada. Also at the PNE was Montreal fan in town for shows that has seen 30-40 lifetime shows.

    And this:
    -California (There Is No End To Love) has been heard in about 4 "sets" but not on Thursday. Usually 3rd or 4th song in set 1 or set 2.
    -Every Breaking Wave (full band) must have only been heard week #1 and abandoned for the "acoustic" version.
    -Ordinary Love has been worked on at the end of 2 "sets" last week
    -Volcano is yet to be heard in any "set"
    -Electric Co was Edge only in a single run through.
    -Bad, Desire, Elevation, Magnificent, Playboy Mansion, Pride, Running To Stand Still, One all had lots of work on them were missing from
    Wednesday/Thursday setlists.
    -Angel Of Harlem, Moment Of Surrender, No Line On The Horizon, One Step Closer, The Fly, The Ground Beneath Her Feet, The Hands That Built America, Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World were quick acoustic only run-throughs.
  9. Looks like we may get a longer set than we're used to. The last U2 show I was at (Moncton) was 26 songs and it flew
  10. maybe Volcano is being saved for "the Volcano Tour" in 2016
    I would be really surprised if California and Volcano are not played in the first few weeks of tour.

    Me too. Bono said that Vulcano will be one of the highlights of the show
  12. I thought Iris and Volcano would be paired together.
