Auckland Rehearsals

[powerhour24]

I have no problem with him popping up for a song, but Scarlet is a gorgeous little ditty that is begging to not have a guest verse added thank you very much. Especially if this would essentially be the first real performance of it!

 

[powerhour24]

Its like you guys just don't care about little old me anymore.

I'll have my revenge. And It shall come when you least expect it. Just you wait.

Peace, love and YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH!,

I'm probably the only one who's excited at the thought of Jay-Z joining U2 onstage.

^ yeah probably!

I dont have an issue if it happens somewhere that gets lots of shows. But we dont see them too often down here, I dont want songs ruined by guest performances from people that the crowd as a whole wont respond well to

IF that was really Jay Z, I bet they were just fooling around.

I'm positively giddy.

I'm positively giddy.

 

[romi]

I'm not against the idea, but I would not be overly excited, either.

 

[ryancoke71]

I'm pretty excited!! It is better than Interpol!

Quoted for mucho mucho Truth.

 

[daygloeyes2]

Love Jay-Z. He's on my list of must-see artists.

For those who don't want to see him open, can the fans going to the NA shows trade you Interpol and The Fray for him? You get two for one!

 

[powerhour24]

I'd take the Fray over Lenny Kravitz, at least they're still 'on the rise' which is what U2's openers are usually.

 

[Edge_Orchestra]

I'm not so excited about Jay-Z doing "Scarlet". If that is indeed the plan.

I am super excited that they might play "Scarlet". It's a longtime favorite of mine. Could make a good lead in to another song.

The performance of SBS at Brandenberg Gates was cool. That would make more sense.

 

[bono_man2002]

I'm positively giddy.

I'm holding back Vomit. Seriously, Jay-Z gets his 45 minutes and can leave as far as I'm concerned. Might as well call Mary J Blige in as well....

Sorry, I don't want to sound close minded and negative... but I paid to see U2...and not to have one of their songs ruined with a rap going down in the background.

I second this motion.

Contrasting to tht thoroughly mature response?

LOL, I don't care that much, but when it is so rare that they visit it is a small let down that we have to endure a guy going "uh-yeea" "uh-huh" over the top of one of the most powerful moments in the show.

 

[coolian2]

i'm here. band (i presume) going through boy falls. i also found 50 cents on the footpath and a marquee hire van just ran over a cone trying to turn around at the gate.

 

[corianderstem]

i also found 50 cents on the footpath

Oh shit, he's there too? I guess he'll be rapping over MLK.

OMG Cori!!!!

 

[Fer Castillo]

[KhanadaRhodes]

personally, i'm not a jay z fan but i'd rather he come onstage with u2 and do scarlet versus them not play it at all.

and now they've just been tinkering with bffts since we got here. no vocals though.

 

[coolian2]

i also think i've parked in a brand new no parking zone, but it was a tight parallel park so i won't be the first towed.

 

[bono_man2002]

Oh shit, he's there too? I guess he'll be rapping over MLK.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Oh shit, he's there too? I guess he'll be rapping over MLK.

Yeah, this can't be topped.

 

[coolian2]

sounds like they're doing the tour blessing right now.

Oh, maybe they'll leave the cars alone, good luck.

And thanks for the reports

 

[dazzledbylight]

tour blessing ??!!

 

[romi]

I presume a prayer?

 

[dazzledbylight]

I am disappointed that I cannot see the Claw at the stadium on Google maps.

I feel cheated.
