The Boston transition was the best ever.
Nosebleeds and $300 seats alike get no video close-ups. GA gets limited sightlines. Red Zone gets a camera crane in the way.
Guy Oseary gets a boat.
Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.Starting this tour's shows with Sunday Bloody Sunday, tuned farther down to compensate bono's voice- may I add, is the laziest idea they've ever pursued.
IT'S THE JT TOUR! Start the show with Where the Streets Have No Name with the guys rising above the stage (zoo tv style). It's a stadium show; it's logical, gets the crowd excited, and move those songs to the middle of the JT album set so they don't bore non-hardcores with Exit and Trip.
This might possibly be the most uncreative thing the guys have ever done on tour.
There, I said it.
And yes I'll still be attending

So I gave most of it a watch again, and there is very little color live footage but yes it exists. I wonder if it was an aesthetic decision based on the JT era or how they superimposed the live footage on the other.
Oh, and you half a dozen screen savers comment is even more laughable now.
So which footage did you think he shot the day before the show?
So obviously the U2 crew agree with me rather than you.
I don't know, you could probably make a 22-song setlist that's just big, well-known hits! U2 aren't like other bands where they need to pace themselves with their five or six big singles.
What's up with Lionel's face
[emoji38]Is Lionel pointing at where Mariah's clothes are?
Bill Cosby was also on that bill. Mariah was actually roofied and is sleeping.Well he just saw Mariah naked, he's probably pretty excited?

Positive things:
2. ....and no more attention whores on the stage.
Hopefully JUST musicians if does happen. because that's where there's a real connection -most- of the time.
Yep, really looking forward to seeing it live.
PI mean , if you would have said that U2 would play EXIT , ASHOH, One Tree Hill on a nightly fucking basis a few years ago everyone would've laughed at you and look at this now?!
You know what else got the crowd excited in Vancouver and Seattle? Sunday Bloody Sunday.
I love that someone is bitching this hard about the tour after the first show. Oy.
It takes A LOT for me to come back on this forum after 10 years- 8 pages later, I can see that some feel the same sentiment as I do.
You don't have to be a hardcore fan to realize this tour was rushed

Amen to this^...male or female
Yeah, good god, listen to some of those early Vertigo shows. They couldn't even get their heads around the setlist. Clearly that tour was rushed too, and nobody was on board.
But you were speaking for all of us, yet only one agreed?
Have you ever seen any other tour opening? U2 are always a little rough around the edges when starting. So no, no one outside a few feel like this tour was rushed.
