  1. Oh the tour was sold as "pairs of shows playing with the ideas of Innocence & experience" at the beginning. I'm too drunk now to find quotes for you !!
  2. Willie even confirmed lately that there were two sets but they decided that people would be disappointed if they went to one show and missed some of the highlights of the other one
  3. Personally I would have kept the Iris thro. RBW segment in for both nights & mixed up the rest
  4. Originally posted by treasure:Willie even confirmed lately that there were two sets but they decided that people would be disappointed if they went to one show and missed some of the highlights of the other one
    then they were 'thinking of doing'.
  5. Yes up to tour rehearsals when we had already bought all the tickets
  6. So when you bought tickets in December / January, they had actually gone public with how the show was going to be?

    With all due respect, that's not how it happened.
  7. “There is talk of doing two different kinds of shows,” bassist Adam Clayton told Rolling Stone. “One night would be a kind of loud, explosive rock’n’roll kind of event and then the other night’s show take the acoustic arrangements of some of the songs, and kind of present those songs in a much more intimate way. But we don’t really know how that’s going to sound and look.”

    Roughly translated 'we are thinking of doing'.
  9. Billboard:

    The tour will also be conceptually unique in terms of the music. Routing shows that the cities are all booked in multiples of two dates in each market, which is no accident. Though the concept is being refined, it is believed that the band will be performing two different shows in each market on consecutive nights, built around the "innocence + experience" theme. That said, all tickets will be sold as individual night tickets, with no package deals.
  10. Did anyone ever tell you not to argue with a drunk Irish man ?
  11. 'It is believed'
    Roughly translated 'they are thinking of doing'.
  12. “We are going to try to have a completely different feeling from night one to night two,” said Bono speaking about the concerts, “and have some fun playing with the idea of innocence and experience. More to be revealed!”
