Hi setlisters..

Hello all

 

[DRay9911]

I predict a snippet of something from the "Oklahoma!" musical.

Bono's going to sing something about the Claw being as high as an elephant's eye, or how The Edge's guitar sounds come sweepin' down the plain.

i'm hoping he throws out a couple of BOOMER's

atu2 U2's stage is turned sideways to fit the stadium tonight, and the upper level has a black tarp over it - those seats were not sold.

 

[corianderstem]

I wonder if they'll have to put it in sideways in Vegas, too.










..... that'swhatshesaid!

10 minutes to peas. About 65% full.

 

[Bonoandboss99]

Hope they play Lets Get it Started. Its the one song by them I really like.

 

[corianderstem]

I like a few of Fergie's solo songs, so I'm hoping they'll do a few of those. Not a big fan of any of the Peas' songs, although that "I've Got a Feeling" one is slightly sort of maybe a little bit starting to grow on me.

And I probably won't be able to resist shaking my rump to "Boom Boom Pow," because I can't resist a rump-shaking beat no matter how much I might hate the song.

They will, judging by every show they've done for the past few years. It's been their opening song ever since it was released.

 

[redhotswami]

I stopped listening to the peas once they let fergie take over vocals. what a 180.

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

I would've loved to experience any of the college town shows! If the OU game was at home I would've totally gone there for the weekend to experience both. Now that would've been something.

I hope you have the time of your life!

Except for the part where they can't have a game the same weekend as the shows due to construction needs.

wow i'm an idiot. that never even dawned on me.

 

[Lila64]

Would be interested in knowing the BEP's setlist. So I can be prepared for it next weekend.

ETA: @atu2 Black Eyed Peas are on stage now...

[Bonoandboss99]

Exactly. has it started yet??

 

[lauramullen]

Yes, the BEP are on stage

 

[Lila64]

U2 concert ... Free tix ... Very thankful! on Twitpic

 

[Bonoandboss99]

What's their set so far?

 

[lauramullen]

I don't know. Let me see if I could find it

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

wow i'm an idiot. that never even dawned on me.

Yeah. The stage takes approx. 5 days to build, then they perform, and another like, 3 days to tear down. Hence the need for three stages. It also explains why this leg is only 20 or so shows...it's football season.

 

[Bonoandboss99]

Thanks! I really appreciate it. I'm so used to Greasy lake set list watching, and Bruce never has an opener so this is new to me haha.

 

[trinn]

Hi all!

 

[lauramullen]

I'm assuming they opened with Gotta A Feeling

again, i am an idiot. see, i knew all this! wow.
well hopefully next time they can tour college football stadiums during basketball season. then i'd actually have a case.




wow. just, wow.

 

[Jeannieco]

Hi guys! Just popping in...
Are the BEP's going to do a flash mob dance?

 

[beau99]

I'm assuming they opened with Gotta A Feeling

Let's Get It Started has been their opener for about... 4 years now. I doubt they'd change it now.

Oooh...now see, that would be awesome. A college basketball game and a U2 concert over at the football stadium. *nodding* There's a good case if I've ever seen one. We'll have to see once the next set of US dates is released. Odds are it'll be June and July.
