  5. O.k., but you should leave a bit space for songs from the new album. Obviously not in the running order; I'd count at least six slots in the set permanently covered by tunes from the new album (Mercy being one of them ...):

    1. New Song
    2. New Song
    3. New Song
    4. New Song
    5. New Song
    6. New Song

    Then I'd go for another 'new' one being played every night (at least for the first weeks ...), at least for the (big) rest of the world, not being in Japan and Hawaii:

    7. Window In The Skies

    Now, that we have covered one third of all possible setlist slots, we might concentrate on the most delicate matter here in this forum: Which songs to play from the 'Greatest Hits'?
    Fixed and, I guess, nearly everybody's expectations are:

    8. One (covering the early 90ies, a live anthem)
    9. Where The Streets ...(covering TJT, a live anthem)

    With these tunes you give also the many, many "one gig only"-freaks, what they want – and only the most bored U2 fans here really BELIEVE, that these tunes might be complete crap, too. They are masterpieces, whatever you will joke about them ...

    Also in the 'Greatest Hits' category invade two tunes, that are of more recent date, even when I really don't appreciate one of those (before you ask: the elder):

    10. Vertigo
    11. Beautiful Day

    With these four tracks as 'Greatest Hits' to be played as fixed ones in the set, the tradition tells us, that others might join the family – but we talk about a 'dream list'. So I suggest now, that in addition to the four crowd (and in parts even fan) pleasers, there will be five more slots reserved for 'Greatest Hits'. These will have rotating, topic-related tunes – tunes, that will be played either/or, switched from night to night:

    12. The soul, that's dancing:
    I Still Haven't Found .../Stuck .../

    13. The rocking 'dance' punch:
    Even Better.../Mysterious Ways/Lemon/Discotheque/Elevation

    14. The political/social protest hymn:
    Sunday Bloody Sunday/Bad/Please/Bullet The Blue Sky

    15. The big ballad:
    With Or Without You/All I Want Is You/Stay/
    Staring At The Sun/Sometimes You Can't Make it ...

    16. The 'early' rocker:
    Out Of Control/I Will Follow/New Year's Day/Pride

    Now, after having six slots for new tracks, four fixed 'Greatest Hits' and another five 'Greatest Hits' being varied from night to night (this is enough for the crowd pleasing, friends!), up to six slots for 'obscure songs from U2's past'. These could remain empty, but show some courage. In my dream setlist, U2 decide also to fill them with different surprises from night to night. I fill in my personal requests:

    17. The Unforgettable Fire
    18. God Part II
    19. October or Wave Of Sorrow
    20. Dirty Day or Exit
    21. Crumbs From Your Table
    22. Drowning Man

    Some feedback on your thought would be appreciated... thanks!! i tried to keep it as realistic as possible without having a ridiculously long setlist...
  10. It's very nice, certainly something I'd like to hear - and I think Ultra Violet coming out of City of Blinding Lights would be great. All the best tunes there.

    i like the idea of The Edge being all alone on stage during the encore break playing Van Diemen's Land... that would be unreal!!!
