Biggest letdown: desire. Weak version. Too much talking. The cheesy way bono introduces it.
Needs to go: the ocean - cedarwood.
I’m a huge SOI fan but this section is a huge dud. The casuals don’t know it and the diehards are over it. And is that even the ocean? Seriously.
Encore is just as weak as I expected. It’s lacking one or two big songs. Maybe have Love is Bigger build to the point of the house lights coming on then rip into out of control with all the lights on? I dunno. It just needs something.
Gloria, ABOY, RFD,Little Things
All four need to be permanently worked in somewhere. Immediately.
Acrobat is just absolutely awesome. It’s just as dark as it should be. Edge solo left me speechless. It’s just so good.
Best thing is awful.
SATS -COBL is much better in person than on paper. It’s a great section of the show and a sufficient way to end the main set. As most said GOOYOW and AS are waayyy better live.
I type some more random thoughts tmrw. Goodnight! Hope everyone had fun

Apart from loving acoustic The Best Thing and enjoying 13 as a closer, I agree with everything else you said based on my experience in Chicago. Show could still definitely be improved on the ways you mentioned but glad you enjoyed! Fun reading your thoughts.
