Saw this and figured there was no thread yet. I'll start compiling the info from the last thread but as I missed it completely it'll take a while.


Party on!

Is it too early to start a thread now?

I'm not sure about any audio or twitter sources but perhaps that could be added later on by a mod? This is my first proper setlist party in here after all, not to mention the first setlist party thread to be started by myself.

My source in Helsinki says that there has been a soundcheck. I don't know in what exact order though.

Helsinki afternoon Soundcheck August 20th 2010:
City Of Blinding Lights (intro)
Mysterious Ways
Where The Streets Have No Name
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me

Odd, I opened this video while I was listening to 11 O'Clock Tick Tock off of my iPhone, with my computer's audio muted. It fits pretty well.

no line, pride and i will follow possibly acoustic?

Dear god what a terrible thought.

I think they have a wrong definition of acoustic. About 90% sure they mean that only the guitar parts were played. That's how it was for IWF in Dublin last year, they only rehearsed the guitar riff at first.
 
I'm sure they'll play Pride and I Will Follow, but not No Line.

Yayayayayayayay
 
I'd be happy with IWF, I wonder if TUF will reappear tonight. If it doesn't, I can't wait to hear Willie's rationalization of why they dropped it.

Nah, there's too many people who want to hear IWF. They'll just play Pride. Instead of UV or Glastonbury or so.

No joke, we've become so jaded.
 
Well you know the funny thing is? I still don't mind the setlist as it is, and I wouldn't even mind it if they put Pride back in. :shrug: I didn't mind it last tour, wouldn't mind to hear it in Brussels again.

I'm such a shitty fan. U2 can play Vertigo x23 for me and I still would like the show. I need to learn how to bitch more often I guess... But since they still haven't played Stuck, it's hard for me to hate.
 
I know what you mean. Last night I was watching the Hannover DVD and I was enjoying it immensely. I was thinking to myself, for all of the bitching I've been doing, watching them in action still brought a huge smile to my face. Although I did skip IALW. :wink:
 
OMG:lol::hmm:

Hello all, ready to rock again!!!:wave:

Larry doesn't care if you're ready to rock or not. :lol::lol:

Hannover? DVD? Where?!?!!? :hyper::hyper::hyper:
 
I'm going to assume that's based on stuff they were heard rehearsing, and just smile and nod. :wink:

I'm the same I guess. I'm seeing U2 for the second time in my life and for the first time this tour in Brussels and I don't wanna let the setlist spoil that show because when you start thinking too much about the setlist there are always things that you don't like. Just enjow what they play.

Wait WHAT? There's a DVD from Hannover already? :hyper: I can has link please?

Well yeah, in the audio bootleg I also skipped IALW. That's another part where I don't get all the bitching. If you're only checking the setlist online, what's the fucking point? You're not actually at the shows(ofcourse you're not, otherwise you would not be complaining) and thus don't have to endure all these songs you claim to hate... So get an audio bootleg and skip the songs you hate. :shrug: May be just me though.

Hannover was such a different show from Frankfurt, with the same setlist even!

Usually during a show I don't care what they play. I have fun either way! :wink: Just Stuck is a dead moment for me. I'm even starting to enjoy the most overrated U2 song evar.
 
Thanks, I started the download :D

I will have to buy new empty dvd discs though. The ones we have here are so old you can only fit half a concert on them. :crack:
