Helsinki II setlist party 21-08 part 1

[ramblin rose]

Wow, two changes already, I'm impressed.

 

[trojanchick99]

I've got to say, I really liked that arrangement. It had a nice little kick.

 

[Galeongirl]

Ok now the audio is dead. Seems like the updates are indeed lagging due to bad connection. We had that in paris last year as well, I could barely get my texts through.



NLOTH sounded pretty good. needs some polishing but it sounded more rocky than the album version, more like NLOTH2 (but still not enough NLOTH2 in it)

 

[bonocomet]

"Talk amongst yourselves"

 

[Purplereign]

well that was a lovely suprise

 

[nielsgov]

Wait, wasn't NLOTH in Elevation's spot?

 

[ramblin rose]

"Talk amongst yourselves"

What do you think he meant by that?

 

[trojanchick99]

Oh, so it's not the Bono/Edge thing? It's a full band, just different arrangement?

The arrangement was different, to me it sounded acoustic, but with the rest of the band too? It's hard to explain.

We need more NLOTH2.

The first verse was Bono/Edge, then on the chorus or 2nd verse Larry and Adam poppped in. I'm not sure where it was. Like Elevation on the vertigo tour with its long intro, or SBS on the JT tour.

Oh one can only hope.

 

[angel_28]

We need more NLOTH2.

No Bad tonight please, save it for belgium night #2

I Will Follow but new year's day is so damn good live too, I wish they stop switching great songs out with other great songs and start to swap out the weak songs,..... YES IALW / Walk on / MW

lol, i was thinking the same thing. or play it and trhem keep it in the set!

 

[remoh]

i think he usually says something like that when they are forming a tight circle to recall how the rest of the song went (i'm thinking specifically of party girl sydney 3 06)

 

[STERKERNOG]

I LOVE this version of NLOTH. They have to keep that for 2nd nights (brussels 2, coimbra 2 )

 

[Galeongirl]

Whaaat??!! hey everyone just joined the party.
And uhnmm what's this I hear acoustic NLOTH??!!

NO acoustic NLOTH. I repeat it was NOT acoustic. Just a new arrangement that had an intro with just the guitars and vocals.

If people keep repeating it others will pick it up, that's how misunderstandings are born. I'm not trying to be rude or mad at people, just trying to get everyone to know the truth. Sorry if I come across as harsh!

My computer is moving slower than a slug right now so this maaaay just be my only post, but I just needed to say that:

Yay NLOTH!

And the audio to I Will Follow woke me up, and I jumped out of bed because I thought it was Electric Co. (...I'm very tired...) But still cool, all the same!
