What's up next for U2 Karaoke? Acoustic 'Slug' perhaps? Some stirring campfire renditions of Mofo or Lemon?

Amusingly enough, if they wanted to really shit their audience off, I notice there's a piano on stage now... you could easily do an old-timey barroom piano version of The Fly (Deadwood mix).

Tonight was good as well. Got to pay attention to the screen. Enjoyed hearing 5 diff songs. I thought both Angel of Harlem and Love Comes to Town were really good. Miracle Drug chorus change was weird, but I enjoyed the rest of it.
Even nose bleeds make for good sets this tour, as long as you're sitting on the sides.
Got to hang out with Joyful and HG afterwards. Pretty sure I got drunk off of one drink and acted like a fool. I'm an Ex-Mormon light weight.

Don't encourage them! They've actually rehearsed an acoustic version of The Fly.

Is it worth me trying to hold out on updates to watch the replay of tomorrow, or should I just look at results and see highlights?

So the band is now taking the stage to Patti Smith's People Have The Power instead of Beat On The Brat? Wonder how long this will go on for.
Topical and not as "fun", but a great track. And I loved when it was snippeted at the end of Bad on the Vertigo tour.

One look at that thing and Larry will say, "we're never playing that building again."

It troubles me that they seem to have discarded The Troubles already

I won't tell anyone although I admit I'm still shocked by what happened.

Yeah, this is rather pathetic, though as I said it may have been one slow song too many.
With 5 nights in Los Angeles, hopefully it gets rotated back in. Because if it doesn't make an appearance on a long stand like that, it's done.
Regardless they need to be playing another new song on the regular.
Well color me intrigued. I wonder what could have happened...

Nice head of hair there, laz. You just need to bring the cut up to date and then you're good to go.

I had such a fucking blast, you guys. I'm so glad I went.
I started reading some of the threads, and I am this close to just telling all the people complaining about setlists* to fuck off and do a mic drop off the site.
Yeah, I could take or leave Beautiful Day at this point. But I looked around a lot during both shows, and everyone was just so damned happy and excited. How is that ever a bad thing? I'm not going to get pissy about the band doing stuff that makes that many people go nuts, you know?
The crowd both nights was amazing. And the band looked like they were having fun. In God's Country was a blast, and I thought it was hilarious when they fucked up Sweetest Thing (I think Bono was playing in a different key). Bad. Out of Control. Electric Co. Still love the new stuff, and guess what? It's finally happening - I like Song For Someone now.
I got to hang out with loads of people I was excited to see. Wish I'd gotten to spend more time with joyful and mofo, but was happy to run into mofo**. Was able to find joyful in her seats both nights and wave to her like a crazy person.
It's just all good, it's all joy. I don't think I care about setlists anymore***
*except you guys. I love you guys. (Except a few of you. you know who you are.)
**I learned that mofo really isn't a hugger. Sorry about that, mofo.
***this opinion subject to change. But not for a while, at least. i've seen U2 play Zooropa multiple times. It's kind of all gravy from here. I'm enjoying it for what it is. A freaking U2 concert, you know?

Oh, and of course I bought another shirt. Since I ended up at a place where they were selling the nice logo shirts they didn't have in Vancouver.
My only disappointment of the trip? My picture of DRay finally hearing Out of Control didn't turn out. I so wanted to share that with everyone. He was so happy, you guys.

The crowd and band both having fun? I'd take the most predictable setlist of songs that aren't my favorites at a show where everyone on stage and off the stage seems to be enjoying themselves over some kind of omfg dream setlist anyway. Sounds like a good time.

I don't even realize I'd reacted weird, now I'm going to be paranoid any time someone hugs me!
I bought two shirts, black one with the band that has white and yellow back drop behind them, and a navy logo one.
I wanted a water bottle, but the cooler looking black one is tiny, and the larger white one is ugly.
