MERGED --> Miss Sarajevo! + Miss Sarajevo again in Zurich?

[BigMacPhisto]

Miss Sarajevo!

U2Log just reported that "Miss Sarajevo" was played at tonight's show. Full band, full song!

 

[WinnieThePoo]

finally, the managed to dig something interesting
after all these years ................

 

[Axver]

I truly can't believe this. So awesome!!

 

[dutchfan]

yes its true!!
i was there.....bono had a very good aria!!

i posted this in reviews.
The played 40 at the end an
first time ever: original of the species (that were bonos words)

 

[Herco]

That opera of Bono blews Pavarotti away!!!

 

[dutchfan]

Yes!! thats my opnion also Herco

 

[typhoon]

HOLY AWESOME, THAT'S AWESOME.

I hope this becomes like "Bad" or "Gloria" this tour; a song that they play enough to make the setlists interesting but not so much that we get sick of it.

So they didn't use a pre-recorded Pavarotti or anything?

(Edit: We also apparently got "Wild Horses," full-band "Original of the Species," and no "Vertigo-dos." Definitely gonna be an essential boot.)

 

[dutchfan]

No Bono did the aria himself!! and pavarotti can retire......really!!

it was a great night.....

 

[typhoon]

THAT'S AWESOME.

 

[Axver]

THAT'S AWESOME.

Correction:

THAT'S BLOODY AWESOME!

 

[dutchfan]

dont forget the premiere of the original of the species...

you know: i had goosebumps all over when they played miss sarajevo My year is perfect now no matter what happens.......

 

[Axver]

Well, it wasn't the premiere of OOTS, as they've been doing it on piano sparingly, but it's the premiere of it with Edge on guitar. The first proper OOTS, hooray!

 

[dutchfan]

you know what also happened. i just remember....

The edge played New years day different: Bono told that edge never wanted to change that sons because its perfect and now he did.....the edge came to bono and told him that it was a mistake and Bono told us funny moment

 

[Axver]

This is so going to be one of the best bootlegs ever.

 

[dutchfan]

well i dont know that: the acoustic in the arena is not so good. I prefer the other big stadium in Rotterdam. But maybe the bootleg will turn out ok.

I had a ball, and want the bootleg ofcourse no matter what the quality is

 

[one4u2]

Awesome Miss sarajevo

 

[MarcusOneTree]

WOW!

And for a total of 25 songs, which I believe is quite rare!

 

[Joshua87]

Not fair!!!

Miss Sarajevo


Btw, anyone know what the full set was??

 

[Axver]

Btw, anyone know what the full set was??

And U2Log.com has a video clip of most of Miss Sarajevo up. It is simply one of the most incredible vocal performances from Bono that you'll ever hear.

 

[corianderstem]

Miss Sarajevo? Wild Horses? OOTS?

GET. OUT!

 

[popacrobat]

u2 sucks. why didnt they play your blue room instead? i can't believe this travesty.

 

[U2FanPeter]

Yet another song from their greatest hits album....

[sarcasm]

This show was also rare in that it's one of the handful of times a 5th musician joined U2 onstage - in full view.

The video snippet is really cool - the crowd goes apeshit when Bono hits the Pavarotti high note.

u2fp

BTW, is there a lyric change in the live version with Bono singing Synagogue/Senegal?

 

[2Hearts]

Miss Sarajevo is such a work of genius.

I am very happy that they brought someone (Terry Lawless) on stage to play the keys on OOTS. I think they restrict themselves too much when they don't use additional musicians and/or backing tracks. I just want the songs to sound good.

 

[popmart86]

Miss Sarajevo? Wild Horses? OOTS?

GET. OUT!

......................snippet of 'please'.................

 

[corianderstem]

Pardon my ignorance, but who is Terry Lawless?

 

[UnforgettableLemon]

I think it's pretty ballsy, too. Still nothing from Pop or Zooropa, but Passengers!?!?! Gets my approval.

Had there been any mention of this being rehearsed at all?

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

 

[Ageeth]

It was a really great show!!! I loved miss sarajevo!!!!

 

[U2girl]

Watch the clip on u2log com.

Mamma mia that was good, and he n a i l e d the opera.

 

[bloodysunday972]

I half to say this has put my faith back into the europe tour or whats left of it I really hope the 3rd US leg will have some special memories
