Why was he furious? It's one of their best live songs, IMO. I was thrilled to hear this on 360.

Oh he just wanted to hear the opposite song they were playing on the tour, and they didn't play it at all in LA either, but he finally got it this weekend, so now I'm sure he's happy he heard it.

I'm sure it was Magnificent.

*snicker*

I mean... I'm sure you'll have more opportunities, peef!

 

[gump]

I've heard Vertigo more times (19) than the number of shows I have been at (17).

[corianderstem]

I *never* noticed. Are there any fun conspiracy theories about this over in the other place?

No, but Neil McCormick saw it on his preview copy of the JT deluxe edition and thought it was a sneak peek of the album. Ha ha haaaa

[Axver]

I'm one of those people who has seen Vertigo more times than shows I've attended. 19 shows, 20 Vertigos.

I've also had Beautiful Day, COBL, One, SBS, and Streets at every gig. Pride has missed just one.

I've managed to get Party Girl three times and Bad seven.

My once-offs:

40 (1 time)
An Cat Dubh (1 time)
Gloria (1 time)
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (1 time)
Into The Heart (1 time)
Mercy (1 time)

Doesn't appear there'll be a second time for The First Time.

 

[bono_212]

Huh. I didn't realize they kept it for so many shows after the initial performance. Well...i was still there for the *first* time they played it, so that's still special.

 

[bono_212]

Haha, this cracked me up:

Longest gap between performances for a song

• Route 66 (not played for 11974 days)

What a weird song to have brought back that long later.

 

[corianderstem]

I struggled to remember which night in NY on Vertigo I saw, which night in Vegas on Vertigo I saw, then came up with 21 shows total, which I know isn't right. I know it's 23 or 24 .... I know I missed Anaheim 360 .... and am blanking on whatever else I'm missing! Did I see more than 4 on I&E??? Am I missing another 360?

Guess I have to turn to my ticket scrapbook. Sheesh.

EDIT:

LOL I FORGOT TWO DUBLIN SHOWS ON I&E HOW COULD I FORGET THAT I AM SUCH A DOPE HA HA.

Also, I had the NYC date wrong. I had the Vancouver Vertigo date right, but as all I have is a GA wristband and not a ticket stub, I had to Google "U2 Vertigo Vancouver Yahweh Grabby Hands Girl" to make sure I had the right date. I did.

 

[corianderstem]

I also found the # of songs at each show interesting, as people have been talking about the # of songs on the setlists for this tour.

My shows with the most songs were the final 360 show in Moncton and Dublin #2 on I&E - 26 songs, and my shortest was Vertigo in Portland (21 songs).

 

[No spoken words]

I'd have to arrive at rough estimates. I've been to 60 shows, give or take. I remember some dates very specifically, others, I'd be guessing.

I think I could pretty easily figure out how many songs I've heard, but figuring out how many times I've heard each individual song would be impossible.

I've heard Vertigo 2x at a few shows, but also heard TTYW 2x at my first ever show, so there's that.

 

[U2inUtah]

but also heard TTYW 2x at my first ever show, so there's that.

Oh really? Why did they do that? Was it a one off thing?

 

[No spoken words]

I'm gonna take a crack at this thing and just err on the side of underestimating the shows if I'm unsure.

Oh really? Why did they do that? Was it a one off thing?

Bono made them play it again, he thought they fucked it up the first time. I think Edge's guitar string broke or something.

 

[U2inUtah]

Huh. Thats funny. Found that setlist and sure enough its on there twice. Comments also mention what you said.

Comments: Bono felt that Trip Through Your Wires was performed so badly the first time that he got the band to do it again later in the main set.

 

[gareth brown]

I completely forgot U2gigs had this feature! 9 performances not including The Edge appearing with Muse at Glastonbury 2010.

9 shows, 10 Vertigos. Naturally.
All I Want Is You twice, very happy with that. Bad five times, and one performance of Party Girl. Fine by me!

Thanks to IE I've apparently heard Zooropa 5 times. I mean technically yes, but no I fucking haven't! to go back to Cobl's earlier post

Spoiler

I hate how upset I am about them skipping ASOH tonight. I deliberately got a better spot near the b-stage so that I could really appreciate it tonight after being so far away last night, and it's really fucking crushing me that they didn't play it. It's overarching and making me feel really down

that's exactly how I felt after Glastonbury! I really wish it didn't bother me so much but fuck, they're such bastards. Was really glum afterwards.

 

[No spoken words]

Well, I remembered 56 57 (forgot Hawaii) dates so that's not bad. Fuzzy on any others so this will suffice:

Haha, this cracked me up:

Longest gap between performances for a song

• Route 66 (not played for 11974 days)

What a weird song to have brought back that long later.

Neither of those even features the full band. One is just Larry, the other is just Bono.

The Various Dates section can really mess with the stats.
