New York II Setlist Watch and Party

[redkat]

Hi Carek


wouldn't it make sense to alternate WOWY with AIWIY?

<really wants to hear AIWIY (just watched Slane )

 

[Harbinger]

The American Trainwreck Awards < shudders >

 

[timothius]

You know, Timo, when I first met you, I thought you were much older than 18.

When are you seeing Neil? Is he touring again?

But once we started playing this game I well and truly showed my immaturity .

He is playing the ARIA's as a tribute to Paul (1 song I payed $50 ) and Homebake they are playing an "All Star Performance" as they headline. Rumoured members of the group include Jim Moginie & Rob Hirst (Midnight Oil), Brent Eccles (The Angels), Nick Seymour (Crowded House), Eddie Rayner, Nigel Griggs, Noel Crombie (Split Enz) etc.

There is a rumour going round it could be a complet Split Enz reunion.

Drinks for all tonite

 

[one4u2]

HI everyone! Do I even want to know the set so far or will I be annoyed that I'm not there again until Monday?

 

[Carek1230]

Wonder what they will close with tonite?

 

[Lila64]

he took someone's cellphone and talked into it, I believe.... now at the Father Abraham part

 

[timothius]

I missed that night. :-(

I have been able to meet Neil, Tim and Mark Hart on several occasions, but I never met Paul or Nick. I have seen about 3-4 of Neil's performances at Largo here in L.A.

Please tell me you were there the night where he played Making Plans For Nigel!

Did you manage to get on stage and play anything when he asked for all comers!

That bootleg is sooooooooo funny!

 

[sue4u2]

to those staying



(just kidding)

You'll have to do better than that to get rid of some of us

 

[kellyahern]

I will follow and all I want is you

Edge Urkel

I'm going a little overboard with Urkel

 

[Thora]

Hee hee - they just played Elevation in the Vancouver - Edmonton game!

 

[Carek1230]

Hello One4U2 and welcome

 

[Lila64]

Diane says... "Bono just scolded a fan! Father abe snippet"

 

[kellyahern]

No, no, no!! He's a jinx! check the Larry and the Red Sox thread.

Ooooooo, right

 

[BonoIsMyMuse]

looks like Edge forgot his sunscreen. Or are those the burns from him always being on fire?

 

[jon_lemire]

From a few pages back -- People Got the Power is a Patti Smith song and one frequently covered by other bands. I've seen both R.E.M. and Pearl Jam do it (R.E.M. with Smith, who opened for them that night).

Maybe with U2 in November? Maybe...

Damn!! What did he do??

Before the Leafs games they play WTSHNN, LOL! Puts me in a goooooof mood.

 

[Carek1230]

Ahhh, right, I remember you posting about those now. I wasn't sure if your wording implied there was some full tour coming up or not. In any case, next time either/both Finns come around, I'm there!

A complete Enz reunion would be pretty awesome.

By the way, I'm having a hard time dividing my attention between the set party, Bathurst, and my girlfriend as it is, so do you mind if we continue our Aucks/Welly rivalry at the next setlist party? livebranch:

QueenBee made stills. They're in Pleba

 

[LMP]

Ooooooo, right

give him a Florida or Miami jacket instead, lol

 

[cleazer]

Hardly played on the Leg 1 at all.

I don't think you know what you're talking about.

Are you talking about AIWIY, or a different song?

 

[Lila64]

Yeah that was great! There are still pics in PLEBA, along with possible (expired?) links to download. It was great. I liked Bono's the best

 

[timothius]

Consider the rivallary postponed.

 

[kellyahern]

Damn!! What did he do??

Ditto, what happened?
