As a reference for anyone making sets, these are the songs that have been played, as of the end of the 4 October 2005 concert in Boston:

40
All Because Of You
All I Want Is You
An Cat Dubh/Into The Heart
Bad
Beautiful Day
Bullet The Blue Sky
City Of Blinding Lights
Crumbs From Your Table
Discotheque
Elevation
Fast Cars
Gloria
In A Little While
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
I Will Follow
Love And Peace Or Else
Miracle Drug
Miss Sarajevo
Mysterious Ways
New Year's Day
One
Original Of The Species
Out Of Control
Party Girl
Pride
Running To Stand Still
Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of
Sunday Bloody Sunday
The Electric Co. (+ The Cry)
The First Time
The Fly
The Ocean
Until The End Of The World
Walk On

That's a total of 42 songs (43 if you count An Cat Dubh and Into The Heart separately) and once you add other songs rehearsed but not played live, the band essentially has two whole, separate setlists there. I'm impressed by the diversity.

You know, people say ZooTV setlists were the most static of all, but I just checked u2-vertigo-tour.com and it says for ZooTV's 3rd leg alone they played 46 different songs. So apparently that was even more diverse...
 
And the more I think about it the more I think switching in Walk On for One would be perfect.

A few points about that. Firstly, the count is bloated by Larry's Irish drinking songs. Secondly, the count is also bloated by what were essentially song snippets (i.e. Unchained Melody, She's A Mystery To Me) between One and Until The End Of The World that don't neatly fit into being classed as a snippet of either so they get classed as a separate song. The third is a problem I've been meaning to rectify but it'll simply take for-bloody-ever: extended snippets such as AIWIY at the end of Bad or Stand By Me at the end of ISHFWILF are classed as their own song. One day when I feel like doing a lot of monotonous work, I'll fix that (I've already done First Time on the fourth leg but that was only eight or so instances).

If I remember correctly, most of the legitimate variety came during the acoustic middle portion where Bono occasionally would break into, say, So Cruel around the time of the Satellite Of Love cover. The rest was extremely static.
 
I'll give it a shot, complete with snippets!

I was counting solely U2 songs played since 28 March 2005 (so no Unchained Melody) and excluded She's A Mystery To Me on the basis it was essentially a glorified snippet in Denver. If I had included the HTDAAB Promo Tour, both Desire and She's A Mystery To Me would be added to the list.

chizip, i agree with some of what you posted.

but no matter how overplayed one is, it's a crime to substitute it with the lyrical cheese-fest that is walk on.

if you wanted to hear any more lyrics laced with cliche's, pop in bon 7ovi's "thank you for loving me".
 
Ignoring the fact that U2 would never drop Bullet, I went ahead and made this list.

I think Vertigo and COBL work better at the end of the show and Streets needs a better transition. Opening up the encore seems perfect to me.

And I think U2 needs another Elevation song to get the crowd going, but since I think it should be from the latest album, I picked ABOY.

Espically for New Yorkers as that's the song they played on the flatbed.

Here we go---
