LA #1 Setlist Party

[Angtre01]

Away we go...

 

[Oregoropa]

Take us to periscope depth

 

[Angtre01]

Give me a little volcano tonight, let's go

 

[prbiker15]

I'm hoping California returns to the setlist.

The band soundchecked earlier today, judging by the following tweets. Forget spoiler tags!

Rob Moynihan
@robmoynihan

Currently listening to @U2 rehearse 11 O'Clock Tick Tock in the Forum! @u2gigs @atu2

U2 now rehearsing The Ocean. Could be a night of rarities at the Forum!

I'm VERY giddy about that first tweet.

 

[bnu2ts]

I'm ready for the crush ... Fly and volcano coming ... Zoo night 4 Chicago ....

What time does the show start? Same as the others, or is there daylight saving involved?

Holy mother fucking goddamn shit. Guess I'll be smashing periscope today.

smashing periscope

Best catchphrase of the tour so far

 

[prbiker15]

That needs to be a tag.

Today's "venue cake":

The Forum

Apparently The Forum has abandoned it's GA policy:

Jason Rector
@jasonrector

They let 250 people in and then held the line. Still waiting. So much for getting a good spot. @theforum continues to be inept. #U2ieTour

3 hours behind EST time. So it'll start around 11pm est, if that helps.

This person is planning to periscope tonight:

The Ocean? Cool, but I can't get very excited about a song that's a minute long.

 

[Harbinger]

Ideally it's paired with 11 O'Clock Tick Tock. That makes it 10x better.

 

[prbiker15]

Sil is testing:

Sil Rigote is on Mixlr. Mixlr is a simple way to share live audio ...

 

[DRay9911]

can't see them getting crazy with 11 o'clock on night one.

 

[david]

This is exciting. I hope the show tonight is sexy. Very sexy.

I wonder if 11 O'Clock Tick Tock is for the KROQ show at The Roxy?

 

[Harbinger]

I wonder if 11 O'Clock Tick Tock is for the KROQ show at The Roxy?

That seems plausible. But there are still 2? shows after that, so it seems to me like it's got a good shot at a night 4 or 5 slot; much like 3rd nights on elevation.

 

[Oregoropa]

I predict Gloria shows up by the end of the Forum run

Or segues with The Wanderer intermission.

Washes my feet, splashes the souls of my shoes / I went out walking

 

[prbiker15]

Red Zone is a bit far from the stands. Forgot that the floor at The Forum is big.

I just think it's funny because I have no interest in being that close to the stage or catwalk when the screen is that cool looking. I will definitely be walking in late and hanging back and drinking heavily.

Me either. I'm a seat person, so all I have to worry about is making sure that I buy tickets on the sides.

 

[Gonna Run 2 U]

Sorry but they are saving Gloria for NYC

Yeah, I'm getting quite a bit of joy seeing people arguing and lining up for days when it doesn't really pay off.

By the time they get to Australia they'll probably be back in fucking stadiums but either way I'll be walking in late and having a few froffies.

The Ocean? Cool, but I can't get very excited about a song that's a minute long.

Well, yeah, it's been an accompaniment song its whole life...

 

[Harbinger]

I'd love to see a Danger Zone snippet in 11 O'Clock Tick Tock someday.

I was just about to tell you to go fuck yourself but then I realised that every time I've ever listened to 11OTT, that song has popped in my head every time, during Edge's downward guitar playing towards the end after the solo. So I apologise.

 

[Axver]

I just went and hyperventilated about 11OTT in the soundcheck thread so I'll contain myself here, but woooow. I really hope they go through with it. It would be almost enough to send me back into fanboy mode and jump on a plane.
