Wake up!! Did you guys really expect them to play a totally different setlist???

 

[carrotflowers]

And seeing as how there are a few of us going against the grain right now, i think Pride rocks live.

HELL YES!! Well, judging by the live DVD's I have of course

These so called 'standard' songs have been the soundtrack to the last 4 years of my life!! (I'm a 20 year ols new fan who has fallen in love with every era of this great band)

AND I WANT TO HEAR THEM LIVE SO SHOOT ME!!!

exactly!!

And an old grumpy moanin fart like me misses these tunes!

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

"Wake up!! Did you guys really expect them to play a totally different setlist???"

 

[Miringeltje]

"Walk on" is stated as the next song on the Zoo

Walk On.

So for that!

Ahh! Apart from you being two years older than me, we're on the exact same path.

what are the odds of them even playing WITS? they havent even rehearsed it the last few days, at least not in public...

I would say there is ZERO chance that they will play WITS, I don't know why people are hoping for that. It ususally takes them a lot of practice before they can play new songs live, and they haven't got that much rehearsal time. Plus it's not even out yet... They will most likely be playing Saints, but not WITS.

That being said, it WOULD be great if they did, to play an unreleased song live before it hits the airwave... But no, won't happen!

 

[KUEFC09U2]

"One" live at Twicks last yr was one of the highlights - moved my sis and I too tears - just so so moving!

i know when we were at the manc concert, my brother was just in total awe when they played it, he even loved pride,

outside the U2 nuts people do actually like these songs

 

[ramblin rose]

It's actually refreshing to be in here reading these types of comments.

The good news is that everyone will get to hear the classics. I can't wait to hear the reaction from you guys after you see the show; like what you feel at the climax of Streets.

I'm sure all the Aussies are just ecstatic that U2 are there at long last whatever the set list.

 

[last unicorn]

The setlist can and will still change. I think it's great so far and the fans at the concert surely don't care whether the songs have been played a trillion times before in a similar order or not, for many it's the first concert and I am glad everyone gets to see and hear old and new stuff. People who are not there at the show should stop complaining, the band will never be able to fulfill all the wishes of everybody. Just be glad you are part of this beautiful experience.
