You know things are running late when you have to set your DVR for the program after The Tonight Show AND the program after that in order to record U2's appearance.

What an inauspicious start to the SOE promotional campaign - an appearance on The Tonight Show that no one will see.

Why is it on so late?

Is there any links so I can watch it on my phone?uk link?

 

[dan_smee]

That was fire.

 

[SecretFly]

Bullet the Blue Sky and then The Best Thing. Total opposites.

The NFL season kicked off on NBC, and of course those games go 3 1/2 hrs.

Pretty awesome performance of "Bullet the Blue Sky". North Korea visuals, a diatribe against Trump... where is this on the tour???

 

[dan_smee]

That is the kind of performance that will get the general public back on their side. Shame it's nearly 2am there

Our football only last 90 minutes

 

[dan_smee]

80 over here!

 

[rennowba]

80 over here!

I think it's a lot longer then 80 when you throw in all stopping and starting etc etc. Hence why u2 are on so late tonight

 

[Y2K]

Pretty wide-ranging interview for the amount of time they had, although I've heard Jimmy tell that story about being pulled up to perform with the band at MSG before, so that was kind of a waste.

I'm talking about Rugby League.

I hope it's just the stream but this sounds horrible live.

Bono's voice was mic'd waaaay too dry. It'll sound better in a stadium

I hope so because Bullet shat all over that.

 

[dan_smee]

Bono did seem to be having fun with the words though. Adam looked a bit... strange after it was over. He let out a big sigh like he wasn't overly happy

Oh shit. Adam is not on board.

Fallon ratings are almost certainly going to be dreadful considering the show didn't start until 1 AM.

 

[mofo82]

Maybe it's just me but in general the band's body language during and after TBT on Fallon just gave me a feeling like they're not in love with this arrangement or something just seems a little off. Bono crossed his arms immediately after Fallon shook his hand. Adam was cracking smiles after Bullet but not one smile after TBT. Add in Edge's waffling back & forth during the interview about the album being done/ not done/ done I think was truly hesitation and not just for show.

I think the band / U2 mgmt made a terrible terrible mistake booking Fallon tonight of all nights to debut the lead single. Had they chosen Colbert also logistically wise being in NYC after the Buffalo show they would've gotten on much earlier & also gained the non-football Tv crowd. And then be at the tail end when people are tuned out or falling asleep. Giant headscratcher. I love these guys but for all the perfection they strive for this was not well thought out.

Face orange like a rose bush, skin as thin as
an orange crush. Lmao

 

[SecretFly]

TBT is a great song but The Blackout would of sounded awesome live. I think they have mad a little boo boo with releasing the wrong single.

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

Where can we watch it?

 

[redhill]

Nowhere yet that I can find. For some crazy reason, I slept and didn't catch it live.

What was said about the album?
