    When the band takes a bit long break, and Larry recovers from the psyhio and with Bono nothing bad happens between the break, then they "dream it all up again" and countinues the touring with a last concert 2026-09-25 in Dublin when they all begans like 50 years

    That will be really fine
    Well who could complain at that really, they could throw in a snippet of my way in the final song just to place an emphasis on the greatest career in music history. Can you imagine the demand for that final show, I’d take that y’know, maybe as it got closer I’d want more but the band have given us so much already they owe us nothing.

    Yeah, I hope they bring us finally more than a song from Pop in the next tour, because we have already waited this for years and they teased us in Instagram in February or in March with a pic in the K-Mart launch with this and they gave for us just an a acoustic SATS, that's a little bit lame for the world's biggest band to celebrate a fanbase album to promote the 20th (sorry now 21th) anniversary with 1 song, but i'd say it was better than nothing because they have seen us here and B&E gave this a gift or a present to the die-hards a sign that Pop exists ever in their minds and every tour played this also in Elevation tour a few songs and Vertigo tour (only Discotheque with an awesome prelude of PopMusik) and later tours snippeted 1 or 2 songs sincere

    Hopefully they will be more rehearsing this album in next time, because I think they have proved in the E+I pre-rehearsals in begin this year just testing like say these or a few songs worked a short time and they gave up and give us just an acoustic thingy, that they played 17 years ago.
    And that's it.

    I'm still surprised that SATS lasted the entire NA leg.

    They came close to doing an encore of Mofo/Discotheque/Velvet Dress on Vertigo at one point. Sadly, they got lazy and stopped soundchecking during the final weeks of the tour so they stopped working on it.

    I forgotted that they rehearsed also Mofo and now a few weeks before here at a topic saw that Edge had pissing of Velvet Dress to play at that tour
    It had would be a threesome in a row to play in that order right in the encore

    Mofo's is in YouTube at present, but it is a 1 and a half minute exprect

    And now they are in fire to play a few ZOO songs at end of this tour
    Hoping for a cool more ZOO set in Berlin

    Also Dirty Day bugs me with (too much) talking directly at the song...

    I know that it's about Bono's father, but in my country says that: "a lot of talk has a lot of the bottom" or whatever has Google translated...

    I like DD and with Edge's sings is very rare and right after a medley with Zoo Station is very cool
    Well see in Dublin!

    Can't wait for the last final shows!
  5. u2 appears in Bohemian Rhapsody
  6. They do indeed. Saw the film last night (which was immensely entertaining) and you see a very brief glimpse of them backstage at Live Aid

    American soul?????Nobody wants to hear that NYD is in their top 10 best songs ever.
    RFD over Gloria not a chance and I'm sure 90% of the audience would prefer the latter .
    Hopefully Bad gets played in Dublin screw the narrative lets just Rock


    I love it when opinion threads give responses as facts???!!!

    I have never cared for NYD that much. Its just OK for me and they just played it at every single show last year. Sorry. American Soul rocked live when I saw it.
    RFD over Gloria?? Seriously, haven't t they done just that on this tour? So, there is a chance actually. Doubt it at this point, I think Gloria is sort of a staple. Nothing against Gloria, I like the song. But I think RFD is one of the better Experience songs.

    This is all hypothetical obviously and, ready for it...…….. OPINIONS!


  8. James Hetfield of Metallica comes to mind. (Let us skip extremes like Orbison or Mercury) And they really tour a l o t


  9. Crowd during American soul
  10. Sorry to take this off topic but can someone remind me the name of the twitter poll that happened a few years ago in which Acrobat won?
  11. U2request
