May 1,1983 Live @ Stony Brook, NY

[snutes1]

I am from NYC but I attended Stony Brook university in the 1990's. When I saw that they played there I was shocked because this school hasnt seen such big acts as U2. And this was WAR tour show which made it especially Odd. I am wondering if anyone has any set list info on this apparently mysterious show.

It would appear no full setlist is known, but this review is given: http://www.elevation-tour.com/reviewdetails333.html

I dare to suggest this was either the last or second-last time the band played Tomorrow, despite the fact the last known date is 30 April.

thanks a lot Axver, I can always depend on you for setlist stats.

If I were to speculate, the setlist probably was exactly the same as the night before.

Gloria
I Threw A Brick Through A Window
A Day Without Me
Seconds
Surrender
Sunday Bloody Sunday
The Cry
The Electric Co.
I Fall Down
October
Tomorrow
New Year's Day
Two Hearts Beat As One
Twilight
Out of Control

encore(s):
Party Girl
11 O'Clock Tick Tock
I Will Follow
40

If there was any difference, it's likely that Party Girl was not played. Just a couple of concerts later, U2 changed to open their shows with Out Of Control, so this was near the end of Gloria's run as an opener. It only opened a couple more War shows and a few on the UF Tour.

Your madness with the setlists is matched only by my addiction to ranking every u2 song
