I just hope this isn't a Europe specific DVD. There better be a North American version or I'm gonna flip.

Convoy · Jul 9, 2003

What was the entire setlist to that show?

Rainy Days · Jul 9, 2003

This is great news but I must complain. I was lucky enough to be there for Slane 1 and it was by far a better show in every way imaginable. Almost everyone in Dublin was saying the same for weeks after both shows. I would do anything to have the first show on DVD. Anyone else agree or disagree?

DaveCadman · Jul 9, 2003

why is everything from Slane 2, don't get me wrong i'm super excited but what about slane 1, based on the mp3s i've heard/watched the broadcast i think slane 1 was a better show.
does anyone agree?

Chizip · Jul 9, 2003

Main Set: Elevation, Beautiful Day, Until The End Of The World, New Year's Day, Out Of Control, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Wake Up Dead Man, Stuck In A Moment, Kite, Angel Of Harlem (full band), Desire, Staring At The Sun, All I Want is You, Where The Streets Have No Name, Mysterious Ways, Pride (In The Name Of Love)

Encore(s): Bullet The Blue Sky, With Or Without You, One, Walk On

Comments: U2 is the first artist to headline two concerts at Slane Castle in the same year. At the end of Sunday Bloody Sunday Bono reads off the names of all of the victims of the Omagh bombing. The show closes as did last week's Slane show with the Unforgettable Fire being played over the PA system with fireworks in the sky.

good to hear!, i guess its still what, 4 months away from being released so that would be why the sites like u2.com havent posted info yet

SkeeK · Jul 10, 2003

I count 8 songs that weren't on the Boston DVD, cool!

And as to all the Slane 1 questions... they're releasing the second show because that was the one that was filmed in its entirety, and by 360 degree cameras no less. the tv broadcast was from the second show.

It's really a shame that the first Slane gig on August 25th is being left out. I have been blessed with the opportunity to see more than twenty u2 shows including both Slane shows and quite honestly the 2nd show on Sept. 1st was nothing compared to he first. Don't get me wrong, it was still amazing and still very special. But how can you forget the emotion on stage that day that Bono felt who was at his fathers funeral just a day before. The words he spoke about his father just before they played "kite" or the images of his father during "One". And I'll never forget when they played " A Sort Of Homecoming". None of these unforgettable moments took place in the 2nd show a week later. Better set list, better energy and a much better show. Does anyone agree or even care?

Great news!

bono_man2002 · Jul 11, 2003

yertle-the-turtle · Jul 11, 2003

I agreee, but as I posted in EYKIW, I think the first Slane show was too close and emotional for the band to release commercially. I feel uncomfortable thinking about a company cashing in on someone's personal grief. I think the emotion of the first show is meant to stay between the band and their fans and to release it to the world would be quite insentitive.

hqr_syd · Jul 29, 2003

Yeah Yeah,

Just got my 5.1 Digital Home Theater for the PC,

can't wait for this ,

A Sort of Homecoming Hope it was played full.

Someone inform me when they purchise this.
