I might have to make a cd of some of the lists if they sound good enough!!

Ohhhhh...you put their version of "I Can't Help Falling In Love" on your list...I'm, like, hooked on their version of this song now. I think it's the way Bono sings the song...it just makes the lyrics seem a lot sweeter.

I don't know what order I'd put these in, and these are just from all the songs I've heard by them thus far, as I hear more this list could easily change, but this is what I'd love to hear:

When Love Comes To Town
Angel Of Harlem
Exit
With Or Without You
One
Mysterious Ways
Desire
All I Want Is You
Trip Through Your Wires
In A Little While
Stuck In A Moment
Walk On
Kite
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
Where The Streets Have No Name
Bullet The Blue Sky (not only would I want them to do this song, but I'd love it if they did this song the way they performed it in the "Rattle and Hum" movie, and Bono did the whole thing with the spotlight again-yeah, that'd be so cool)
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Running To Stand Still
I Can't Help Falling In Love
Staring At The Sun
Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World
Pride (In The Name Of Love)
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me (I have a feeling they could do a rockin' version of this song live)
Elevation
Beautiful Day
Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses?
I Will Follow
The Fly
Stay (Faraway, So Close)
New Year's Day
Bad
If You Wear That Velvet Dress
Please
Love Is Blindness
If God Will Send His Angels
Helter Skelter (I LOVE their version of this song)
All Along The Watchtower
The Sweetest Thing

There, I think that's it-man, that's a long list, but it'd sure be an awesome concert (for me, anyway). I know I'd have fun.

all right! now i don't have to make a list! :D
 
I don't have any specific setlist for my ultimate concert (besides Running to Standstill, which I will hear live before I die) but there are four times that I would love to be able to see U2 live: the ZooTV tour, the tour after Boy, after UF, and JT.

too bad there are no time machines... :(
 
Sometimes I think people wish for too much and are not happy with what they have or what they have seen concerning a U2 live show.

May 01, 2001 / Minneapolis, MN
Tour: Elevation - 1st leg
Venue: Target Center
Opening Act(s): PJ Harvey

Main Set: Elevation, Beautiful Day, Until the End of the World, New Year's Day, Kite, New York, I Will Follow, Sunday Bloody Sunday, Stuck In a Moment, In A Little While, Desire, Stay, Bad/40, Where the Streets Have No Name, Mysterious Ways, The Fly
Encore(s): Bullet the Blue Sky, With or Without You, Pride, One, Walk On/Hallelujah
