U2 Glastonbury Setlist Prediction

[coolian2]

I predict that Bono and Edge will join BB King's band for When love comes to town, not the other way around. Thus wasting a perfectly good opportunity, and sadly probably their last (BB is in his mid 80s) to reunite the original musicians on the song. I hope I'm wrong, but this would sadly be VERY U2 for them to do this.

you'd prefer the guy in his mid-80s to have to wait around at glasto all day?

[KUEFC09U2]

Its always like that in the UK

 

[nirniva]

700 times? If true, that's crazy even by our standards.

Yep - that's about as close to a perfect summer's day as you get in June as far as I remember it.

Really looking forward to the prospect of U2's fanbase expanding after tonight's performance. Just think of the amount of fans they can turn into die-hards after tonight's performance, not only in the audience but on TV around the world aswell. Your talking millions.

I think their performance tonight will change alot of people's viewpoints on them aswell, especially the people who claim their overrated.

maybe some.. but I think people who dislike them will still find reason to dislike them..

Anyone know what time they go on and if it can be watched live online?

Thanks in advance!

 

[vjacqb]

Has U2 really performed 700 times?? I know people here who have seen them 100+ times, and that dates back to the 80's. I don't know where the other 600 shows could have come from...

I can see this. Do the other BBC streams work as well, or we'll need Expat Shield? I can see the "Live Stages" too.

Not to sure to be honest, the "live stages" is currently on the pyramid stage, so you might get to see U2 there

It looks like they were streaming their full set Hope they stream all of U2's set as well.

In the US, and it's working like a charm for me. Thanks!

 

[redhill]

Confused about time though...

It they play around 10 in Glasto that should be 5PM here in the Eastern time zone in the US, right?

 

[digitize]

I'm kind of fucking excited in spite of myself to see ZooTV Part Two.

Also, this appears to be from Glasto:

[James U2]

the next u2.com fanclub cd really needs to be the glastonbury show.

Yes. "Wide Awake In Glastonbury", anyone?

 

[Rob33]

nvm

I think the most surprisingly wrong prediction here was the snippet marathon one. I mean, sure, it's pretty obvious we were right about how hard Bono thought about his snippets in advance (Independent Women, Jerusalem, Yellow weren't exactly spur of the moment stuff), but just one snippet in what should've been the Bad snippetfest to end all Bad snippetfests?

I AM SO DISAPPOINTED IN YOU, U2.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Ax what did you think of the st mate?

 

[cobl04]

And it wasn't even a Moz snippet.
