OK, I'm bored, what else is an Axver to do?
I figure I'll make this conceptual. It's 2007, so U2 decide to celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Joshua Tree. They book six nights at the Point Depot, with the final on the 20th anniversary of JT's release. At each of the first five shows, the band revisit the albums/eras leading up to JT, and on the sixth night, celebrate JT itself. Each night contains two sets, one focusing on the specific era being celebrated and one on the other eras in the series. Encores draw on the rest of the band's career. The final show is naturally much longer than usual.
