Something that I normally do in anticipation of a tour for one of my favorite bands [not just U2, others like Bon Jovi, REM, Motley Crue, Metallica, etc.] is make a "tour mix," 16/17/18 songs which I would either: love to hear, predicting as part of the setlist for the tour, know we're going to hear it, or just plain dreaming out loud.

I'm going to see the Crue next month, and made a sweet 18-song tour mix which I've been listening to for the past few weeks.

Granted, my Boston Vertigo gigs are over 3 months away, but I'm itching to make a tour mix...and I need help. Here's what I'm thinking, and PLEASE reply with some of your suggestions. After all, it is Friday afternoon and I can't wait to get out of the office! :)

1. Love And Peace Or Else
2. Vertigo
3. Until The End Of The World
4. New Year's Day [U.S. Long Single Version]
5. All Because Of You [Alternate Version]
6. Gone [Best Of Mix]
7. Even Better Than The Real Thing
8. Out Of Control
9. Electrical Storm
10. Stay [Acoustic]
11. Fast Cars
12. Gloria
13. Bad/40/Streets [Live From Boston]
14. Pride
15. Zoo Station
16. I Will Follow
17. One
18. City Of Blinding Lights

Let's come up with a nice, kick-ass mix!
 
Yeah, I really hope Love and Peace is the opening track. How could would that be?
I was hoping it would be the Love and Peace or Else tour!

I'd love to hear Gloria and 11 O'clock Tick Tock come back.
 
I went with my girlfriend to a Crue concert once, and we walked out mid-show. They have no class. None. I was so embarassed by their visuals and onstage banter, that I was relieved to hear my girlfriend say "Let's go". They have a very different feel than U2 does playing live. I prefer the heart-in-the-clouds feel of U2.
 
Here's a fantasy live setlist I would LOVE to see and hear...
An Cat Dubh/Into The Heart
Out Of Control
11 O'Clock Tick Tock
Electric Co.
I Threw a Brick Through a Window
Tomorrow
The Unforgettable Fire
Acrobat
Gone
Please
Walk to The Water
New Years Day
Like a Song
Until The End of The World
The Fly

Running To Stand Still
Bad (full on 15 minute epic version)
Love Is Blindness

Sometime You Can't Make it On Your Own
