Experience and Innocence tour
Legs (3): Promo tour, Leg 1: North America, Leg 2: Europe
Shows: 75
  1. The Willie interview in Rolling Stone does help the context of the show, though he - like everyone in the band infrastructure - are very good are not answering questions.

    One of the key things we're currently missing are the visuals : I+E made sense with the use of visual motifs such as the lightbulb, the waves, the eye/earth imagery, etc tying the songs together with meaning, and its not until we see what the tour presents with sound & vision that we will know the narrative link between some of the songs.

    I do desperately wish they could turn the second quarter into I Will Follow/Best Thing/ Iris/ Cedarwood Road/ Sunday/ Raised By Wolves/ Please/ Love Is All/ Streets - Intermission
  2. Originally posted by Genaro92U2:Is Bono really going to be performing Elevation, Vertigo and Desire as McPhisto? LOL those are such average/basic songs for such a grand character. If he's really bringing him back play Zooropa, UTEOTW, Acrobat and Batman if anything Jesus
    Desire as Mcphisto... average... you obviously missed Zooropa then
  3. Only 5 songs of the 80's. That's where they became big. No UTEOTW (why not rotate with Horses) and no Streets which was certain. It's sad. But Acrobat makes me pretty happy.I hope they keep Acrobat when Europe comes.

    They should have taken out one of the SOI songs in the first set and find a way to get UTEOTW and Horses together. That could have been a great segue.
  5. If they were going to replace anything in that segment for UTEOTW I would have liked them to take out SBS.
  6. To much SOI for me. Like the album but seen it during the SOI tour. Prefer more SOE songs, AB/POP and a few hits (all I want, BAD). Would be a blessing if the skip One for ones.....
  7. And replace it with Please.
  8. Let me just remind the complainers of the sets what we have gotten over the last few years that we maybe thought we would never get.
    Two Hearts Beat As One
    October
    Wild Horses - most likely
    Exit - plus all of the Jtree not played since 87
    Acrobat - most likely
    Maybe Staring at the Son
    And many other b sides
    I feel spoiled!
