Vancouver #1 setlist party (part 2)

[Miro]

I really want one song from NLOTH tonight c'mon but this is incredible

 

[nitebusnitebus]

very good spot for the Troubles

 

[beegee]

Have they SERIOUSLY played nothing from Joshua Tree yet?

 

[trevgreg]

8 new songs... 7 off the proper album. Not a terrible showing for new material.

 

[ApolloAndy]

Edge's guitar is shredding on this one. I love it.

 

[clerks]

I can't stop thinking of The Walking Dead now...

 

[littleheartsuitcase]

How about 360 for a start.

I honestly have never seen a 360 show, so I ought to go and watch one. So they didn't play Vertigo, Pride, etc. at all during that? I'm just trying to figure out what people would expect if NOT "hit" songs.

 

[DRay9911]

I like Pride...but I'd rather a full version of Hands that Built I think at this point. Though RTSS might sound great after that Bullet/Hands snippet.

may get one step closer tomorrow

 

[coach]

Have they SERIOUSLY played nothing from Joshua Tree yet?

Bullet.

 

[topplehatU2]

Was kinda worried it was gonna be WOWY in this spot.

 

[Zoomerang96]

Yes, playing songs we love is the worst along with new ones. Terrible. They should play what -- Bieber?

Yes, Bieber. Justin Bieber.

 

[AcrobaticFly]

What do you call BTBS?

I know everyone here's stoked on how many SOI tracks they're hearing, but I'm not convinced an audience that, besides GA, is full of casual fans, is going to enjoy this.

 

[Partyslammer]

After people have wiped the pre-cum away, had a cold shower and got over the high of an opening night on tour, most are going to think they went to a greatest hits concert. Whether thats fine or not is another story, but thats all this is.

Add elevation and walk on and youve got a shit sandwhich of a setlist here folks.

Neither song will be played tonight.

I'm as cynical as anyone when it comes to the burnout tunes but I'm honestly surprised they are sticking with a majority of the songs off the last album and better, most of those songs are vast improvements over the album versions (which is my least favorite U2 album).

 

[TheEdge25]

That video screen would be perfect for The Fly, with ZooTV visuals, propaganda and words flashing across the screen...

 

[Airseven]

I just don't think this band is capable of going much deeper into the catalogue.

Zooropa or Pop? Come on!!

 

[Partyslammer]

Have they SERIOUSLY played nothing from Joshua Tree yet?

They did play Bullet The Blue Sky off Rattle and Hum.

 

[littleheartsuitcase]

Honestly I just want a few more Pop songs, c'mon.

 

[Rachel D.]

It sounds like Bono is singing along to a recording. Is the rest of the band playing?

Free POP!

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

Bullet was on JT first...

This album is so much better than last album... even if you don't love these songs... last album had a lot of songs that made me feel sad inside as I wanted to love them, but couldn't.

But I do want to hear some of them again... sometimes songs sound better one tour off...

And I would love to hear Crazy Tonight played straight and not whatever the hell they did last tour. My favorite song, turned into disco. What am I talking about?

 

[beegee]

What do you call BTBS?

K, cool, I made a mistake.

This set list still blows.

I like NLOTH better than SOI.

That's next.

 

[DRay9911]

whatever song comes with the lights that spring up from the stage and walkway, we haven't seen/heard yet.

stay tuned

 

[dan_smee]

Yeah, the set is a bit flat, but we all need to remember that this is the first of 60-odd shows. More will show up, but they want opening night to be a solid performance more than anything else.

 

[topplehatU2]

Ah yeah there's that extended guitar solo

 

[coach]

No Zooropa, Passengers, Pop, ATYCLB songs so far...

That's a full decade, right?
