Los Angeles II Setlist Watch and Thread Party.

[Axver]

i do like how bono said he's gonna devote the rest of his life to ending extreme poverty in Africa... but this also makes me wonder if maybe he'll be retiring from music to dedicate himself to the cause...

Doubt it. The live concerts are probably his best path for promoting the cause to the general public.

 

[VintagePunk]

Fuck, I'd kill to hear Ultraviolet or Acrobat

Yup.

 

[namkcuR]

This being the second of a two-night stand, I expect the setlist to be somewhat, though not drastically, altered from last night's setlist.

 

[Axver]

Man, i didn't think I'd post here as much as other message boards...

I find it amusing how my post count seems to go up by at least eighty with each party thread.

True! plus, i think bono kinda needs 15,000 people screaming for him every other night...

i think he'll win the Nobel Peace prize someday.

 

[Miro]

Cool stuff!

And T-minus 8!

 

[U2DMfan]

I'm getting drunk too, first time in a while, so it shold be interesting. Hopefully I won't start bitching that they didnt play Elvis Presley and America

One has to wonder how he copes with these long gaps between tours, heh.

He damn well deserves to win it!

Yeah, actually a few days ago in the shower, I was thinking of how everyone says it would be impossible for U2 to play a full-out version of Acrobat live. Well, I think I imagined them playing Acrobat how they would play it if they did it live, and it was amazing. The sheer power of the drums to open the song, and a powerful bassline throughout the song..I think there was a backing track for Edge's guitar, just so he could have the freedom to concentrate on the distortion effects.

I often wonder if his age is a factor, and that for now, he's perceived as too young.

i know! poor ali... there's a quote in i believe the Flanagan book, about how after a tour Bono jumps up on the kitchen table every night 'round 9 pm...


6 mins to showtime, and still have not finished paper!!

[angel_28]

5 minutes and counting ....unless its already started i haven't checked the previous pages

 

[Axver]

I'm not drinking anything, though if I were, it'd be water or lemonade, so I'm even less fun.

 

[u2valleygirl]

Okay...three more minutes then "everyone,everyone,everyone"

 

[namkcuR]

$50 says they open with 'Red Light', thus causing Axver to have a siezure.

 

[angel_28]

That "everyone" thing still freaks me out...lol

 

[MikeSt]

wish I had some beers, but i'll have to make due with root beer and lime tostido chips!

 

[Stingray]

I think I prefer all the war songs together

I think Vertigo should open

 

[cuneatus2]

You're on namkcuR!

And Bono's daughters do the "dah dah dah" bit just like I predicted in a set last month?

 

[RademR]

did someone say lime tostido chips??

 

[VintagePunk]

Nyquil here. Woo-fucking-hoo.

 

[angel_28]
