** SPOILERS** The soundcheck thread

Spanish Fly ftw

 

[PopFly]

I'm sure there are a few U2 fans in Spain who have seen "Spanish Eyes" at every concert they've ever attended and are like, 'geez, not this warhorse again.'

I'm sure there are a few U2 fans in Spain who have seen "Spanish Eyes" at every concert they've ever attended and are like, 'geez, not this warhorse again.'

Spoiler

But I can't help myself: Spanish Eyes has actually only been played at 4 out of 17 shows played in Spain since its release (that will be 4 out of 20 if it does not appear this year).

A more likely "not this warhorse again!" rarity would actually be One Tree Hill, played at 8 out of 10 New Zealand concerts since its release and snippeted at the remaining two.

I'd be happy to hear One Tree Hill live

I would love to share the burden of hearing One Tree Hill live. Please let them play it at a gig I attend.

Definitely not tonight... It's the obligatory Desire/AOH night. I'm not a big fan of Desire, I gotta be honest. I think if they aren't gonna do it like on the album or the Lovetown tour, I don't want to hear it.

Several people on Twitter said full band rehearsal of Spanish Eyes today. Won't let me embed for some reason, but shouldn't be hard to find.

Desire/Spanish Eyes.

It'd be nice if it was Magnificent / Spanish Eyes, since Mag was rehearsed the other day.

Wow this thread's been dead for weeks.

Anyway, Gloria and NYD soundchecked before London 3.

What are they playing?

 

[stigman]

Just a normal run through of the show

They have to modify movements on some songs because of the modified setup so they were probably going through that as well.

 

[cobl04]

play a sort of heomcoming u stupud fucks

 

[Mack_Again]

Acrobat?

 

[Hewson]

Crystal Ballroom has to resurface in Dublin.

 

[RoKKeR]

How is the stage going to look? Anybody know?

 

[Ifeelnumb84]

Realistic surprises for Dublin:
Zoo Station
Van Dieman's Land
Whiskey in the Jar featuring Larry Mullen
Two Hearts Beat As One
Tomorrow (connection w/ Iris?)
A Sort of Homecoming

 

[prbiker15]

Fuck, if they really gave A Sort of Homecoming a shot...I'll lose my shit.

 

[bono_man2002]

In A Little While and Vertigo twice, surely!

 

[RoKKeR]

Would definitely lose my shit if they played ASOH. Would be more than appropriate obviously, but I'm not getting my hopes up....

 

[Peterrrrr]

26 years since the 26th December 1989, they will play the same playlist as that show.

 

[Mack_Again]

ASOH should be on the setlist, but.......i feel like their surprise wont be as good as we actually think of.

 

[kabigon]

ISHF hasn't been played since London #2. Opportunity for a new rotating closer. They'll probably just do One on odd nights and Bad/40 on even nights though.
