    This must be a conversation within the band if Adam said nothing pre-Joshua Tree.

    So what's going on?
    Unless they are really trying to kid the fans on with the rehearsals then I think it’s impossible for the Setlist to change so dramatically over night. Pride, SBS, I will Follow, desire, the ocean would all need to be dropped. Ok they’ve got showman and UTEOTW to add to the last full run through but unless they’re reducing the number of songs in the Setlist or have been rehearsing other stuff on the quiet inside the arena so they’ve got visuals right etc then I can’t see it. Would be an amazing surprise though.

    This makes sense. You can see in the video that his shoes are his normal ones but sparkled out.

    Although for those who have been able to hear them rehearse, does Bono sing like Macphisto for the songs that kick off the second part (elevation, vertigo, desire and acrobat?). Interesting to see what they do with this. We will know soon!
    No he doesn't. He only does the speech a la MacPhisto.

    Bono Interviews He talks BS all the time, he's to be ignored when it comes to saying things in interviews and to fans.
  6. Thanks for the info Remy.

    So Hold Me was never, ever rehearsed live? This is probably the biggest disappointment for me, although the fact that they will likely play my favourite song (Acrobat) cannot leave me too bummed out.
  7. Wow well this is going to be interesting tonight
