Best POSSIBLE Setlist for the tour

[discothequeLP]

I really do think this is the best possible setlist for the Vertigo Tour -- every song has been played, except for Crumbs/Electrical Storm, two songs which the band have said they want to play eventually


Vertigo
All Because of You
Elevation
Gloria
The Ocean
Beautiful Day/Sgt. Pepper's
Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
City of Blinding Lights
Miracle Drug
Sometimes You Can't Make it On Your Own/No Regrets
Love and Peace or Else
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Bullet the Blue Sky/Johnny Comes Marching Home/Please
Miss Sarajevo
(Human Rights Video)
Pride
Where the Streets Have No Name
One/Unchained Melody

Encore:
Until the End of the World
The Fly
With or Without You/Love Will Tear Us Apart
Original of the Species

Encore 2:
Crumbs From Your Table OR Electrical Storm
Yaweh
Bad/40




it's perfect!

 

[Joshua87]

Trade Gloria and The Ocean for Electric Co and NYD and it gets my vote!

 

[rock888nwo]

Gloria ROCKS!!!!! great setlist

 

[liamcool]

I'm sorry, Cartoon World is missing, this isn't the best setlist possible.

 

[Axver]

No, I don't think that's the best at all. You still have the poor SYCMIOYO --> LAPOE, Fly --> WOWY, and Pride --> Streets transitions.

 

[MarcusOneTree]

No, I don't think that's the best at all. You still have the poor SYCMIOYO --> LAPOE, Fly --> WOWY, and Pride --> Streets transitions.

I agree with you about the last 2 transitions (especially The Fly --> WOWY), but I didn't know that you don't like the SYCMIOYO --> LAPOE transition. Just curious as to how come...

 

[Axver]

I agree with you about the last 2 transitions (especially The Fly --> WOWY), but I didn't know that you don't like the SYCMIOYO --> LAPOE transition. Just curious as to how come...

I think the songs are so totally different that they don't belong together at all. SYCMIOYO would be better followed by Bad. It doesn't seem right to follow such a heartfelt song with the sinister intro of a political rocker.

 

[U2Spain]

My setlist:


Vertigo
All Because of You
I will follow
Electric co
Miracle drug
Beautiful Day
Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
All I want is you
City of Blinding Lights
Love and Peace or Else
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Bullet the Blue Sky
Running to stand still

Acoustic:
A man and a woman
Yahweh

Encore 1:
Pride
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Where the Streets Have No Name
One

Encore 2
The Fly
Original of the species
With or Without You
40

I think the songs are so totally different that they don't belong together at all. SYCMIOYO would be better followed by Bad. It doesn't seem right to follow such a heartfelt song with the sinister intro of a political rocker.

it goes that way on the album -- it's cool to see it live in the same order too.


and, on Elevation you had that funny Kite --> Gone thing going on.



and do you really think they would take apart the Pride-->Streets-->One trio? this is the best POSSIBLE setlist. . .



The Fly--> With or Without You works; if they start the intro track while the outro to the Fly is still going, it flows well

 

[Harbinger]

But Kite and Gone have a somewhat similar theme. Bono often dedicated Kite to his father and Gone was dedicated to Michael Hutchesse. I think there's enough connection there.

 

[discothequeLP]

just musically, the Kite outro/Gone intro is similar to the Sometimes Outro/LaPoE intro


and they put the 2 songs together on the damn album, they must like it that way!

 

[popacrobat]

no zoo station? boo hiss

 

[discothequeLP]

UTEOTW has precedence over Zoo Station, for sure

 

[popacrobat]

no way, not right now at least

seeing until the end of the world was cool, they should mix it in there more often, but zoo station was easily a bigger highlight if for nothing else because they brought it back after this much time.

plus i think zoo station sounds better on this tour.

 

[discothequeLP]

here's another setlist i thought up -- a little less likely but still possible

All Because of You
Elevation
Until the End of the World
New Year's Day

Original of the Species

Bullet the Blue Sky/Johnny Comes Marching Home/Please
Miss Sarajevo

Pride
Where the Streets Have No Name
One/Unchained Melody

I think that is wonderful. A perfect Vertigo setlist! hehe.

I cannot understand why the band (or anyone else in here!) doesnt suggest moving One into the "Zoo TV encore", it works perfectly in there and One after Streets just doesnt fit right.

I want a job writing setlists!

Remove Kite and its fine. )

No it's not. It's 25 songs, they've been doing that at some shows this tour. With longer songs than The Ocean too.
