I don't want to toot my own horn, but I mentioned before they may return to a very strong 6 song NLOTH album opener number for the tour, then end it just as they did on ZooTV. I am still holding onto this belief, they want to be a little balsy and flood new music in the ears of the audience. Good for them.
I hope they return MW to the fuller sounding version as played on ZooTV. More swagger to that tune always helps.
Too bad no champagne moments with TTTYAATW.

I agree - imagine if they pulled out HMTMKMKM, I mean come on......only 1 tour appearance..sad..
I'm just praying they rehearse some of these monsters before the second leg, as I will be at the first show of the second leg...

I'm sorry but I don't find that to be too interesting or exciting at all. It seems to be U2 by the numbers. I feel like I have watched that show before. I'm sure it will be a great show nonetheless and people will love it cause it's only great music there. But I wish they would be a little more daring with their songs choices. They are certainly not trying and match the original visual of the tour with a more original approach to the setlist. I know this may not the final setlist but the only thing I think is cool there is the fact that the first four songs are all new and the last song is MOS. The rest has the same vibe from the two previous tours. Its same ol'...
I agree....I know we don't know the real set-list and there will be a few surprises (so I'm just speculating because it's fun)....the rehearsals are missing real rockers like HMTMKMKM, Mofo, Disco, Gone etc.....they don't seem to be matching the high-tech stage with the high-flying, techno-rocking beats....rather they are rehearsing the oldies....it's very strange....but either way I'll be happy.
Anyone else feeling this way?

Love it all, all I would suggest is:
a) "adding" The Fly right after Vertigo and right before Mysterious Ways!!
b) "replacing" Sunday Bloody Sunday with New Years Day
How about replacing Vertigo with The Fly?

I can't say IWF from Popmart Vegas has stood out to me as particularly bad, but I guess I've honed in more on the trainwreck of songs like SATS.
Hell, if you can play guitar, you should be able to play IWF with precious little effort involved.

Sorry but I just don't picture Breathe having enough power and drive to be the opener. That's my only complaint with this set list. The drum intro and when the guitar and piano kick in will be good but other than that it's a weak ass opener.

WTF?? how did i miss this....gah!!!!!
i'd take fly if it meant i also get mysterious ways
but please don't stick me with sbs or nyd. i'd rather take fez or dirty day, since they are both soooo epic
even though the vegas show had it's problems, i liked the popmart arrangement of IWF in the #2 slot after mofo
are they going to rotate the posted EBTTRT/remix and the crazy/remix in the set? unless both are just new arrangements the updaters are confused about.

Just be aware, this was one of many reahearsal nights – let us wait and see, what U2 will bring up the next nights. I keep my fingers crossed, that the new tracks stay in. Then I really wish for "Drowning Man" 
, "The Unforgettable Fire" and "Ultra Violet" being fixed for the opening night, too.
Those three 'rare' tunes (plus IALW & MLK, which in a way you can count to that group, too) at that moment of the rehaersals have BD, ISHFWILF, SIAMYCGOO, COBL, Vertigo, MW, SBS, Pride, WO, WTSHNN, One, WOWY on the other side – which is something like 5:12 ...
Interesting that we arrive at a 50-50% pattern when you add the 7 new tracks on the 'risky side': 12:12 – a mixture, that U2 obviously head for to please the one-off-concert goer, the first time and the die-hard fans.
On the other hand I am a bit concerned of the band now inserting more and more 'Greatest Hits' aka staples from previous tours. The balance seemed to me a bit better in the earlier nights – and I do hope, that the share of war horses not get higher and eat up exactly slots, that should be reserved for some surprises and to-be-dust-off gems from the catalogue ...

I have to say, I'm good with that setlist. It has something for everyone. A good amount of songs from the new album, some classic hits, and some rarities for us hardcore fans. If I saw that setlist at the show I'm going to, I would be very happy with it.
It looks like Ave Maria will be outro music ...

It's funny, I think there's a disconnect between what we perceive this new staging to provide (a kick-ass visual assault against everyone in a massive stadium during The Fly, MW, UTEOTW, etc.) vs. what the band may have envisioned the Claw to provide: a more intimate, atmospheric staging for them to connect better with the crowd.
I was never a huge fan of the Vertigo staging, as I personally feel like U2 deserves more intense visual support than a poor-quality screen can provide. Looking back on TV footage of the Vertigo shows from Sao Paolo, the band were definitely in top form, but even during the peaks of the show the visuals and effects from the stage didn't blanket the whole stadium. I'm hoping that the band utilize the amazing potential of the Claw to spread the love and turn the whole stadium into different shades of light instead of aiming a few spots down on the band.
4 days till we find out!!
