    Setlist Discussion Part II - Spoilers Allowed, Enter At Your Own Risk

    That’s most U2 shows in my experience. Doesn’t make me enjoy it less.

    More SOE Reviews

    I do feel like the reviewer has misinterpreted a few things there. I’ve also noticed a trend in reviews of the album that they assume I/me in the songs means Bono and I’m not sure that is always the case. It’s undoubtedly a personal album but I think there are characters in there too...

    Red Flag Day Appreciation Thread

    I really like Little Things but it sounds like what I would expect a good U2 song to sound like at this stage of the band. This on the other hand is so fresh and sounds great, one of their best songs in a very long time IMO. Reminiscent of War days but brought right up to date. The chorus is so...

    California (There Is No End To Love) - Song Discussion

    I always thought this sounded flat when they played it a Jools Holland, but just listened to the boot of Chicago 5 and it seemed to go over really well. It is a bit baffling it's not been played more - thought when the album came out this was a lock for when we saw them in LA!

    Raised By Wolves - Song Discussion

    Having watched the video of this from Belfast 1, I must say that the adapted visuals did a great job and if anything made the song more powerful. The modern attitude that somehow remembering one tragedy diminishes the others is a bit depressing though, particularly in light of Paris. It...

    Belfast #1 Setlist Party (?)

    Sounds like this show will be worth the download! This band always turn up when it matters. :hyper:

    London #5 Setlist

    I only ever saw the stadium Vertigo show and it was OK, but I much preferred 360 and I+E. If you're talking about weak encores then finishing with All Because of You, Yahweh and Vertigo (again) was a serious low point after the highs of the Zoo mini-set to open the encore... Elevation was great...

    London #5 Setlist

    ^Good post. That Staples Center show looks a bit of a disaster apart from Please! I attended one of the LA shows (Sunday night) and London #3. London #3 blew it out of the water, partly due to the performance but mainly due to the flow of the setlist. It's annoying they aren't changing things...

    Start times (London)

    I'd guess an 8pm start on the Sunday and 8.30pm on the other nights but don't shoot me if you miss the start! I'll be aiming to get there for about 7pm on the 29th.

    Start times (London)

    Start time seems a bit out of whack with the finish time unless the band are spending the week off turning into Springsteen.

    All Purpose Pre-Show Lineup Thread

    Never heard of nonsense like this outside the U.S and Canada. I went to one of the LA shows and people acted like they owned their spot on the floor and the surrounding area because they'd been in the magical queue, and dished out abuse to anyone that dared encroach. It was pathetic. The same...

    All Purpose Pre-Show Lineup Thread

    Does anyone know how early you have to lineup so that you can behave like an ass to people that turned up hours later and ended up standing next to your precious spot?

    What do you think the t-shirts/merchandise will be like?

    My fiancee had exactly the same problem with hers! Anyone else out there? I think a replacement is only fair as it is clearly a manufacturing problem.

    Bad and the backing track

    Hi all, This is something I've wondered for a very long time- why does the studio version of Bad not have the synth backing track that AFAIK is used in every live version? Do live versions exist of Bad without the backing track? Conversely, does a studio version exist WITH a backing track? I...

    MERGED-->Patti Smith spat at Larry?

    Reminds me of Manchester's Elevation show when the band left the stage after playing One and didn't come back out for Walk On, then the houselights came up. It was really weird at the time, there was a strong sense in the crowd something had happened with Bob. Very emotional.

    anyone know who the mysterious ways dancer was on the new dvd?

    Her dancing made Mysterious Ways for me, it's not a song I'm all that crazy for but she can really move and Bono looked to be having fun. :wink:

    BRITS : Chicago DVD being shown on Channel 4

    I was hoping they would show Zoo Station/The Fly, but never mind. Obviously it makes me want the DVD more to see those two.
