FINAL ENCORE: this 3 song encore really has just fallen flat for me the last couple weeks. City is the #1 song that should be dropped or at least rotated from the entire concert, BD is always great but there is no framing for this song here, it needs a better setup and follow through. Still Haven't found is just a bore as a final song and any U2 show to not have One be played is the biggest travesty of the entire tour so far. (other than the running order of the rest of the setlist - but that itch has been scratched enough and holding on to my rage till I see what next years setlists look like). there needs to be maybe a minute longer break until the final encore starts to get the anticipation spiking everyones energy and emotions AND a 4th song must be played every now and then to give some extra flavor to this stale final segment.
I never had such a destroyed throat as I do today.
I will get back to all your mentions and PMs soon, just need to unpack my suitcase and edit the BCN1 recording (nobody has shared a recording so it's my first U2 premiere! Nice).
BTW let me apologize for our mixlr streams' quality. It seems my external mics setup wasn't really valid for Mixlr. The app's internal volume is very loud (and non adjustable) and it can't really accept hot inputs, so it was too distorted. Dear U2starters' eardrums, please accept the sincerest apologies on behalf of me and my phone.
