Welp looks like that song didn’t show up...

Coming from a big fan of this show, I have no idea why they’ve cut it down from 26 songs to 24. It worked great at 26. Keep Raised By Wolves, rotate Gloria with
Electric Co.
, and rotate Red Flag Day with All Because of You.

The Canadian flag on the screen is a bit awkward...guess they didn't have a budget to get a humongous flag of other countries.

That was nice. Some little kid had a sign and they brought him on stage to shake their hands. Then Larry kicked him back into GA.
 
Good thing they took a week off to reimagine the same leftovers that sat in the back corner of the fridge all week. It really is asking to much to interrupt their "theme" to play a few different songs on a second night in a market.

Got to love replacing Gloria with a dud off Bomb. A t least if they plug in Red Flag Day, there is some fresh/newness with that.....but uggh with ABOY. The set is short at the least 2 classic warhorseyesque tunes with Gloria, so when you drop it and replace it with that....even less spectacular.
 
The music industry is abuzz with the most rock n roll audaciousness witnessed in years. U2 has shocked the world by playing virtually the exact same set every show. No one saw this coming - they promised extended sets and rarities - so boring - but have come out swinging with a predictable and somewhat baffling running order every night.

Thematically questionable and often somniferous, the lads have nevertheless been pulling off what was once thought impossible - or at least what was once thought impossible since the last time they toured - and did the exact same thing.
