that setlist is wrong.
For a start, robbie not doing angels just isn't going to happen.
REM - Man on the moon??
The Who - My Generation??
Elton John - Candle in the Wind (quite poignant for africa) or even are you ready for love??
and my final 'omg should be there'
Madonna - Like a Virgin

And I might add....maybe Bono just hasn't told the media what U2 is playing, since they want to surprise like the last time....So they write 'One' since that's what they often do at charity events.
I could see that Bono doesn't like to get off stage
No way would he hand over the reigns.

Hopefully, they'll remember to plug in McCartney's microphone this time
and The Sun says George Michael is a legend?

This I seriously doubt. If they wanted these songs to appear, they could play them in London at the venue....

anybody else a little annoyed there are like 500 threads all talking about what songs are going to be played?
Yes.
there are 3 threads on the first page of this forum alone. Get with the program people. WildHoneyAlways said:
Yes.
plus 2 on the front page of EYKIW, and one in the U2 setlist forum
theres really not much reason to speculate over it anyway, lets just wait and see what happens

No.. Floyd is supposed to play 3
There can be only one, and it's our boys! Not a one-time come-together of a splitup-band

If there weren't any speculation in here, only 5 % of all threads would survive

Why do we need 500 threads about possibly only one song?!?
It just doesn't make sense.

Well I wouldn't miss Sgt. Pepper, but I agree with you on One, that just isn't very exciting.

That would be really cool, since it's kicking off the whole show. Perfect set-up for the theme of the day.

why is it then that U2 are only doing 1 song, and other bands are doing 3 or 4?
why are REM doing 4? who are they, no one wants to see them. we need 7 full hours of U2! and they can still do Vertigo in Vienna in the night.

The Madonna songs are correct. She has already confirmed that it'll be her setlist. She has spoke too about present there the 1st single of her future album...
About U2, I have already head about Sgt. Peppers, Crumbs, Beautiful Day and Walk On, but not One... We'll see tomorrow what happens...

Maybe U2 doesn't want to announce the songs they are playing beforehand, and announced One because everyone expected it. Maybe they want to surprise people or haven't decided which other songs they are gonna play.
could be something to do with fatique? playing live 8, travel to airport, flight to vienna, travel to stadium? soundcheck reharse whateverybird3k said:why is it then that U2 are only doing 1 song, and other bands are doing 3 or 4?

could be very tiring for them, am sure the people of vienna wouldnt want to see a tired band, after all they bought there tickets

U2 will only play one song. I can confirm this right now.
That one song will be Vertigo.
And it will be played fifteen times.

It was written in my local paper how Paul McCartney and Bono were clashing and that Paul wasn't going to do Live 8 unless he was opening and closing the show.
I also found this on u2log.com. I apologize if this was posted already.
Are you ready for U2’s hit and run performance at Live8 this Saturday? The band are kicking off the day at London’s Hyde Park, playing ‘St Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band’ with Paul McCartney and then, according to a schedule sent out to affiliate broadcasters, a short set of three songs: ‘Vertigo’ en ‘Beautiful Day’ and ‘One’. After their Live8 performance they will jet it over to Vienna to continue their Vertigo Tour on the same day. It’s not as impressive as Phil Collins’ Concorde stunt 20 years ago, but a valiant effort nonetheless.
