Shuttlecock!

[birdman]

I love Shuttlecocks, far more aerodynamic than a regular mere tennis ball.

Sadly, I can't see as many rotations in the set as Tourist does - it'd be interesting to do it more on a thematic basis like the Tomorrow/Mofo/Lemon slot than the "THIS IS THE OBLIGATORY ACHTUNG BABY SONG" slot that the Cock tends to rotate with.

All I want is to hear is Running to Stand Still.

Are we really going to have another Shuttlecock thread?

Can't stop the 'cock.

 

[PhilsFan]

I'm drunk and The Troubles sounds just incredible.

Anyone want to take a stab at a setlist?

1. I Will Follow/Out of Control
2. The Miracle
3. California
4. New Year's Day
5. Until the End of the World
6. Mysterious Ways
7. Beautiful Day
8. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
9. Song for Someone (Acoustic)
10. Iris
11. Pride/All I Want Is You
12. Every Breaking Wave
13. Stay (Full Band)
14. Bullet the Blue Sky
15. Volcano
16. Walk On

17. One
18. Where the Streets Have No Name

19. City of Blinding Lights
20. Vertigo
21. Cedarwood Road
22. With or Without You
23. Invisible

I'm not any more optimistic than you are. This is essentially a "worst case scenario" setlist for me. I had to take one stab at something surprising and cool and my guess is a full band Stay. Also have two rotations in there because they're not completely static. I'm scared of how in their ballpark this feels.

Invisible closing? You are drunk. That song went over like a fart in a space suit.

I'm hammered, did you even see that Eagles game tonight?

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I'm hammered, did you even see that Eagles game tonight?

I did. Eagles won, jackass.

If they played Gone and Please live on this tour I'd shit pants and move to trash.

 

[birdman]

I don't get it. Why is there all this talk about the need to find out new tour ideas, when all that needs to happen is for them to play arenas, and to have interesting setlists?

 

[cobl04]

because they won't play arenas, or have interesting setlists.

 

[martha]

Make fun all you want. Mark my words, you will.

I was right.
