All Discussion on 2011 Rehearsals, Soundchecks *SPOILER ALERT*

[theu2fly]

With the concert 2 days away, I haven't heard ANY news about soundchecks... what gives?

 

[ramblin rose]

Let's use this thread to discuss soundchecks and rehearsals so that people don't get spoiled in the gathering threads. Thanks.

 

[silkensky]

Any soundchecks in Cape Town???

 

[shebeen]

Any soundchecks in Cape Town???

has been pretty windy, but someone MUST know something

 

[Blue Room]

Anyone listen to the feed U2gigs put up of rehearsals in Chile?

OTH, very surprising, looks like they will most likely get OTH AND MOTD in Chile. Very lucky fans. Would love to see them do either again in person. I hope they play OTH for a broadcast of one of the South American shows.

(No Bono)

if you wanted to be uncharitable you might say this sounds like a dream gig for some fans

 

[digitize]

HMwhatever now. Sans vocals. Digitize misses Ultraviolet.

Ha. Doesn't look like one to me.

I love HMTMKMKM, but I'm missing Ultraviolet. Still think that HMTMKMKM/UV encore from Horsens II should come back.

 

[gareth brown]

yeah thought that was a beauty myself.........


but seriously, a surprising couple of additions there. here's hoping they actually go through with them, even if they play it safe and keep them back for night 2

[gareth brown]

.......urghhh they need to let

Spoiler

Moment Of Surrender

just drop (in my opinion)

 

[corianderstem]

Seriously? Well, that's an unusual opinion.

 

[gareth brown]

haha i had to edit my post and add that on the end simply because i knew someone would jump in and tell me to stick it otherwise

 

[corianderstem]

Ha! I would never tell you to "stick it." But I did totally give you a funny look through my computer.

 

[Blue Room]

Doesn't the thread title have a warning for show spoiler???? Why does it have to be put on each comment???? Don't go in the thread if you don't want to know!!!!

 

[Blue Room]

I'm surprised Mothers Of The Disappeared was not rehearsed yesterday. Maybe soundcheck today.

 

[TheEdge25]

Miss Sarajevo.....still?

OH MY HELL

 

[catlhere]

Yeah, I've pretty much come to terms with the fact that the most boring song in the setlist is here to stay.

(I thought after Vertigo it would be gone)

 

[TheEdge25]

Seriously.

I was really wishing that they would switch up the set for the South American shows.

 

[super fly guy]

They should break out the fly and zoo station! And bring back breathe.

 

[Blue Room]

So, since spoiler is on the thread I can say it. The setlist has been posted. Chile gets One Tree Hill AND Mothers Of the Disappeared. Plus the Stingray intro is back. Not bad, like I said I would love to see either played again in person, they get both!

 

[trojanchick99]

Rumor has it EBTTRT has been soundchecked multiple times today.

Not sure if it's just crew though.

crew for 8th times???

 

[trojanchick99]

crew for 8th times???

I'm just trying to not get my hopes up. Now I'm reading there were in fact vocals. Must. Try. Not. to get Excited.

 

[nickoslo]

give them one more chance..

 

[topplehatU2]

I'm just trying to not get my hopes up. Now I'm reading there were in fact vocals. Must. Try. Not. to get Excited.

That would be neat, no doubt they are warming it up for Glastonbury.

 

[Niceman]

I'll give them one more chance to keep me satisfied.

 

[ar195]

If You listen closely - there is EBTTRT rehearsal in the background...

[corianderstem]

A little birdie told me they soundchecked Zooropa, with possibly just Edge singing some background vocals? Sounds like Bono wasn't there.
