NY in NY

[OnoBsiDog]

I think it is safe to say we will see New York in the setlist VERY SOON...

 

[popacrobat]

doubt it

 

[TheBrazilianFly]

I hope so. That would be pretty cool!

 

[bono_man2002]

If its not played tommrow, It will be on the third leg, you would think.

 

[Mullen4Prez]

Just got a place in New yooooooooooork

 

[sindaddy]

If they do play it, do you think it will be the original, the post 9/11 version?

 

[Chizip]

if they play new york i hope they only play it in new york

 

[MTEdge]

New York, at most, will get "snippeted" tonight. I believe Angel of Harlem is a more likely candidate to be played.

Playing New York in New York on this tour, given the touchiness of 9/11, might a bit too tacky for the band. Just my guess...

 

[Axver]

The band have rehearsed New York, so I think it'll be played. Pattern says that songs about cities are GENERALLY played in their city (or country or whatever it might be), but this rule by no means holds fast.

 

[bono_man2002]

So theres LITTLE hope for Miami?

 

[RA-D]

yeah, but New York's a bit of a problem when it comes to that theory as there's tonnes of songs that mention/relate to it. From the top of my head, City Of Blinding Lights, New York and Angel Of Harlem, but I'm sure there's a couple more.

 

[Nisse]

Indian Summer Sky...

 

[Mullen4Prez]

only a snippet awww welll.

 

[Joshua_Tree_Hugger]

To what song was the snippet added?

 

[Mullen4Prez]

Bullet

 

[jackbauer]

According to Axver's Vertigo tour site, the setlist shows a snippet of New York, New York - Sinatra. Not New York on ATYCLB.
