    It may culminate in Songs Of Ascent. The word itself carrying them upward and outward from this collective we have known recently.
    Yes, that too - provided there's another album, I'm very happy
  2. Dirty Day is such an interesting addition. One of my favorites. Hard to see it transitioning into Zoo Station. Also think Beautiful Day > Dirty Day is a weird transition. The Berlin show could look something like this:

    Blackout
    Lights of Home
    Gloria
    All Because of You
    Zoo Station
    Dirty Day
    The Fly
    Stay
    Horses

    I got rid of I Will Follow to fit Willie's prediction, but not sure how realistic that is. Beautiful Day could find its way into the set after New Year's Day. Narrative is something like going to Berlin, battling your inner demons, becoming the fly, coming together and leaning on the band, not looking back...
  3. Dirty Day had a very similar one-note backing track to Zoo Station on ZooTV. I can totally see the transition.
  4. Either way, how wild is that setlist?! If you told me Gloria, Dirty Day, Zoo Station, and Acrobat would all appear in the same show I'd think you were crazy.

    From what I heard, he speeches a lot during Dirty Day, but there's still music. It's a story about their fathers. In rehearsals, Edge was even on lead vocal.
    Kind of like EBTTRT and Desire?
    Speech before and during a middle 8?
    Or does he speech over Edge singing?

    I'd love a version like on ZooTV, but a speechy version is better than no version at all I guess!
  6. Is there an iem of dirty day?

    It's like a setlist gigographer's wet dream.

    bad news
  9. If I can get these guys singing "These days, days, days run away like horses over the hills" segueing into the dirty guitar slide of Zoo Station, I'll never mock their setlists again.

    Amen.
    That outro is one of their best ever.
    Just getting to hear that would be a dream come true even if the rest of the song is a speech
  12. Honestly, as much as I love Dirty Day and think it would be awesome if they played it, I do not think it fits in the setlist before Zoo Station. This section previously was about Bono's mother with I Will Follow and Iris and probably All Because Of You. I think the song that would fit with the Achtung material and meet part of that narrative still would be Lemon. They obviously even have the footage that inspired that song as it was used during Iris. Bono probably can't do the falsetto but he could sing it differently or they could tweak it. But I think that would fit both narrative better and would be a good transition (if they don't drop I Will Follow) into the Zoo Station segment. Just a thought.
