New Setlist... with changed structure

[drummerboy]

I think they will go old school and close the show with "40".

[ericnurgles]

Here's my guess -- one that was made *before* all of the rumors started going around.

--U2 Setlist--
Vertigo
City of Blinding Lights
Miracle Drug
New Year's Day
Stuck in a Moment
Sometimes You Can't Make it On Your Own
Electrical Storm
Mysterious Ways
A Man and a Woman

--Acoustic Set--
One Step Closer
The Hands That Built America
- - - - - - - - - - -

The Unforgettable Fire
Bad
Where the Streets Have No Name
Yahweh

--First Encore--
Love and Peace or Else
Crumbs From Your Table
With or Without You
Out of Control

--Second Encore--
All Because of You
Beautiful Day
One
40

Way too many songs...............and I guarantee that "Walk On" will be closing nearly every show......

Most of the time they open and end the show with a song of the album they are touring.

wishful thinking. If you're that curious, check my latest post under the MERGED thread. I updated what their setlist will be for at least the first few shows. Thanks!

Not true.

Boy Tour - Not really applicable, but even here, when they had barely anything else to play, they sometimes closed with other material, like 11 O'clock Tick Tock or Father Is An Elephant.
October Tour - The Ocean from Boy.
War Tour - 40 from War.
The Unforgettable Fire Tour - 40 from War.
The Joshua Tree Tour - 40 from War, with a couple of exceptions.
Lovetown Tour - typically 40 from War.
ZooTV Tour - Love Is Blindness from Achtung Baby.
Popmart Tour - One from Achtung Baby, then as the tour progressed, Bono-and-Edge-only performances of songs, only one of which (Wake Up Dead Man) was from Pop. Three songs closed Popmart 20 times: One, Unchained Melody, and Wake Up Dead Man.
Elevation Tour - Walk On from All That You Can't Leave Behind.

So as you can see, only on three tours did they consistently close with a song from the new album - War, ZooTV, and Elevation.

Yahweh or one step closer will be the closing song for sure...it will not be an oldy...

[bazza]

disagree - it will be Neon Lights / Yahweh or one step closer...

they wont repeat structure from elevation...that'd not be origional...

Uhh, they did it for nearly a decade at one point.
