Phoenix #2 Setlist Party

[dan_smee]

Here we go again - Phoenix 2.

After what was fairly unanimously agreed as the show of the tour so far, loose vibes and a good set, can U2 open up further for night 2?

Will there be any tour debuts? Will The Troubles or Miracle Drug come back?

Sil's testing her stream. I wonder if Dan (DRay) will be Periscoping tonight.

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

 

[prbiker15]

I would also love for In God's Country to make another appearance tonight.

Bold Prediction: Joey Ramone and Vertigo will be played tonight.

Our man on the ground DRay will be streaming - and he has set up a twitter account for the occasion:

https://twitter.com/dray9911

Every time he starts broadcasting, a new link will be posted there

They let us in right at 6. I ended up on the red zone rail, edge's side. The process was much smoother tonight

I will be periscoping tonight, but there's a change:

Periscope: DRay9911
Twitter: DRay9911

Sorry I wasn't set up yesterday.

There is wifi here, so if it's strong enough, I won't stop the feed

I have Corianderstem next to me tonight, she says "hello"

Eta: dan beat me to it. Ha

 

[dan_smee]

In the spirit of improving the service for everyone - every time we find a new periscope user, we should all be posting the new links, and/or links to their twitter feeds to help others find the streams

Hi DRay and Cori!

 

[bobsaget77]

I'd love to hear Gloria, Surrender, or 11 O Clock Tick Tock tonight. Yeah, I know it won't happen. But there's been some surprises thus far, so I'll hold out hope.

Some stats before things get going:

32 unique songs have been played so far in 5 shows. 360 Leg one had 35 unique songs in 24 shows. Those songs included The Auld Triangle, Happy Birthday, and 1 slightly bigger than a snippet version of Stand By Me.

Of the 32 so far on i+e - The Troubles, Miracle Drug, California, and In God's Country have been played only once, and Angel of Harlem, One, Out of Control, Electric Co, and WLCTT have been played twice.

Awesome, have a great time tonight! (Hope they play OOC for you...) And Cori!

 

[trevgreg]

I shall be watching here on the laptop tonight and watching the show itself in L.A. a week from now. Wow... time flies, right?

I feel bad for those who have this view. Can't even see the main stage, other than the 'I'.

Yikes - hope they didn't pay much for those seats!

 

[prbiker15]

Probably $30 or $65.

This is the first show I can stay awake for!

I'm still hanging out for the band to play P[leaeer.

 

[Axver]

So, predictions:

- Out Of Control will return, though it would be in keeping with some of this band's baffling choices that they'll give California another run instead.
- No other changes to the first set.
- Second set will have either Angel of Harlem or When Love Comes to Town in place of Desire.
- There will be a tour debut: TGBHF or Ordinary Love in the Sweetest Thing slot. (Please please please TGBHF)
- The Troubles and Miracle Drug will both finally get another go.

I'd like to believe they'll give In God's Country a second try but I suspect it will remain a one-off.

 

[prbiker15]

P[leaeer.

Seems like today was Bono's day on Instagram.

I see that now that I moved to the laptop. Mr CK is impressed

I'm still hanging out for the band to play P[leaeer.

Oh lord, yes.


Predictions: Pride AND One tonight. With the passing of the vote to legalize marriage equality over in Ireland and the protest mess now going on in Cleveland (my dad's hometown.... ) akin to those in Ferguson and Baltimore, I sense a lot of preachy Bono tonight. Especially during Bullet as well.

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

And for the record, I'm slightly tipsy. Not leaning towards drunk. Darn family picnic tomorrow.

I just noticed the "axverisdrunk" tag.
