 Legs (3): Promo tour, Leg 1: North America, Leg 2: Europe
Shows: 75
  1. Encore ditched
    Shortest setlist ever, 14 songs and even a reprise EBTTRT!
    This band sucks, setlist sucks, forumssuck!!
    *foam forms in mouth*
    *leaves the forum*


  3. God I would die....I'm not usually one to bicker about setlists, but mofo would be such a killer encore opener.
  4. they could make a concert where they just played mofo 5 times and i would pay full price to see it
  5. I think if anything the encore opener and first song after the intermission could be more inspired. I like them opening with a few new songs but elevation and one (karaoke style in particular) aren’t too exciting. That’s where they could blow us away with zoo station or mofo or maybe even discotheque, elevation is almost like a compulsory dance/sing along like everyone is just feeling in a daft mood and getting into it but there’s no intensity to the song. One is a classic but not an opener of any sorts and should have a song before it in the encore and Bono definitely should be singing the whole song.
  6. i stand corrected
  7. Acrobat in London is all that counts this tour. The rest is all bubbles to me.
  8. All I want to say is the Staring at the Sun was really really good live and their harmonies were amazing, it would be worth watching this song on youtube from their first 2 concerts in the US



    Originally posted by Blue_Room:Wow, NYD over American Soul. I know most wont agree but that stinks. I know a lot hate AS (it is ok on the album). It was awesome live. NYD, have heard and seen a lot, including last year. I would not need it again as it is one of my least favorite of the warhorses. So that is a downgrade to me.

    EBTTRT is cool, but I had no problem with Desire either. So that is a wash to me.

    Summer Of Love is cool, new material is always better IMO. But Staring At The Sun was one of the best they have done (Performance and visuals). So I think that is almost a wash also. Now if they add The Showman, that is definately better.

    Red Flag Day needs to be a staple, so that is cool. (again new material should win, always)

    I agree this version of SBS needs to go. It would work still if they played the normal full band version like they did for TJT 2017.

    Otherwise I think the setlist looks fine. This show is cool and I enjoyed seeing it in May. I think "most" of you in Europe will feel the same way after you actually experience it. Enjoy it, they are going on a long break after this year.
  9. What's with this obsession with EBTTRT
  10. Maybe as its one of there best singles from there best album. The question should be what’s with the lack of enthusiasm about EBTTRT. (Since it’s hard to get across the tone online my point is supposed to be a serious one put in a not so serious way).
  11. Just like Exit last year

    Yea but with its inclusion they’re inching even closer to the I&E tour. I could think of at least 5 other similar songs that would fit there that haven’t been played yet (or more than once).
