U2 Have Rescheduled Their Cancelled Tonight Show Visit For Next Week

[trevgreg]

The real Bono is still in a coma.

If you play MOS backwards, that can be confirmed.

I think this means they're playing Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Bike Car on the tour.

Head full of traffic indeed.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Confirmed... Show was taped tonight

Only thing I can confirm is that they played with the Roots for at least one song

NDAs be damned... I'm sure more info will leak out before Friday

I'm seeing on Twitter from people at the show that they played Beautiful Day, Angel of Harlem, and SFS.
If so, what a lame set.

Really? That's surprising if it's true. I would've assumed they'd play at least EBW and SFS.

 

[Gonna Run 2 U]

Thank god no EBW if it's true. That song needs to be put to rest.

I was thinking that it'd be pretty cool if they played When Love Comes to Town in honor of BB King. But they may have dedicated AOH to him instead. Which would make sense as to why they supposedly played it.

I'm guessing Angel of Harlem was with The Roots.

What a horribly disappointing set. Promote songs of innocence damnit... Play RBW!!

That would have happened if Bono wouldn't have fallen off his bike 6 months ago. Tour's in 10 days and they probably want to get people to buy the last batch of unsold tickets...why not play one or two old songs to show people that they still got it, and that Bono's good enough to head back on the road?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I would have expected two new songs and one old one... alas.

@atu2: A little birdie tells us we should watch @fallontonight tonight and Friday. #psa

Hmm...

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

My guess is the bike skit will air today as a teaser for the show Friday.

Yea this is probably what they were thinking.

Just wish they'd played some other warhorse in place of BD. I love BD but it's overplayed as fuck.

Would've been nice to see Streets instead of BD if they wanted to play one of their most famous songs to get people to buy tour tickets.

Looks like that was it for tonight. Just mentioning that U2 will be there on Friday and that "they have a lot of fun stuff planned".

I had a sign for Womanfish at the third Dublin show in 2009. I even had lyrics attached in a futile attempt to get a snippet!

Hahaa nice. Although I'm sure if Bono saw it, he'd have thought it was a song by some other band. The band were way too inebriated to retain any memory of Womanfish.
