Las Vegas I Setlist Watch and Party Part 2

[AtomicBono]

I can't believe I had to do this, but I always thought it was "leisure baby, if you don't care for it", so I looked up the lyrics to One (!) and.....

yeah I thought that for a long time too, don't feel bad

 

[Axver]

But it hasn't missed a show since it's debut, if I'm right.

This is sadly correct.

No song should be able to claim a record on its FIFTH TOUR.

 

[mrpoptop]

I suspect the answer is somehow related to Mofo's delay in being played.

Friggin' Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car, too. Can't forget that snippet after The Fly on 9/20. Oh man, the end of September was so weird.

It is hard to believe they played Daddy's gonna pay because of some comment I made to Bono before the show.

 

[Queen Bee]

Can't Help Falling In Love

 

[cleazer]

Holy Shit! I CANT HELP FALLING IN LOVE

 

[GibsonGirl]

Can't Help Falling In Love

WHAAAAT?

 

[Miringeltje]

Because I'm not keen on ogling photos of U2.

I'm surprised!

Not really.
I already knew that.
So it wasn't really necessary for you to answer.
But thanks anyway.

I agree, and One is quite possibly my favourite song ever. I really love it, anyway. But it hasn't missed a show since it's debut, if I'm right. I think if they gave it a rest for one tour or even one leg it would become so much more powerful when it returned.

You're a good person in my book. We agree wholeheartedly on Discotheque, Mofo, the Pop album, and One.

 

[Queen Bee]

"Elvis on stage"

 

[VintagePunk]

Can't Help Falling In Love

 

[sami0201]

REALLY?!

 

[Axver]

If you took out the speeches before, after, and during the songs they would have time to do 1-2 more songs

LIKE MOFO!

 

[Lemonfix]

I can't believe I had to do this, but I always thought it was "leisure baby, if you don't care for it", so I looked up the lyrics to One (!) and.....

That's nothing, I used to think Acrobat, instead of "I'd break bread and wine/if there was a church I could recieve in" was actually "I'd rape men and women/if there was a church I could recieve in."

Good luck finding that church. Good luck indeed.

 

[AtomicBono]

totally agreed.

one of my faves too...

but they play it so much i can't even listen to it anymore...

it needs a nap.

sbs got one
nyd is getting one
wowy gets some
bad gets too many

pride and streets and one (and bullet too) need naps

Pride definitely. Streets...I don't know, I mean, a U2 show without Streets just seems...wrong. I think it's the only song they should play at. Every. Fucking. Show. In fact, they should go back in time and play it at all their shows prior to its original debut

 

[GibsonGirl]

Now that was worth staying up for! Falsetto or not? Probably not, but still.

 

[u2wedge]

they're saying something about an Elvis outfit.. .big belly

 

[JMScoopy]

LIKE MOFO!

EXACTLY

 

[bono_man2002]

Was done in Vegas on the elevation tour...and guess which song it came after

 

[Partyslammer]

WHAAAAT?

No doubt a Bono semi-snippet. Fits in with the Las Vegas theme (Elvis n' all).

T.B.

 

[Thora]

Right on! I Can't Help Falling In Love!!

 

[Axver]

Is this a proper Can't Help Falling In Love a la ZooTV, or just tacked onto One?

 

[mobvok]

It is hard to believe they played Daddy's gonna pay because of some comment I made to Bono before the show.

Show-off.

 

[Clawgrabber]

the only reason Alex decends hasn't been played is because of the need for a choir of young boys to get the song played...

but if they can have a string section for OOTS in milan or wherever that was,

and bono is so keen on taking kids up onstage lately...

they should get a boys choir and ROCK ALEX DECENDS!!!!

 

[cleazer]

Now that was a damn cool snippet!

 

[Queen Bee]

It was fun deciphering the acronym for Can't Help Falling... Thanks Chizip

 

[sami0201]

did he sing it with the falsetto like at ZooTV?

 

[Jamescorymiko]

Wishing for a stream right now
