[Zooropean103]

I think there will be no changes on the first few shows compared to the 1st leg's setlist (mayby except crumbs, but we'll see). Perhaps they will retire an cat dubh/ith. In the middle of the leg (like on the european leg when MS and OOTS appeared) I have a feeling we might see please, electrical storm, uteotw. That's all, but I'm fine with it.

[MrBrau1]

There will be no changes from the 2nd leg. Same songs, same order.

 

[scottyT]

hope they drop zoostation and pick another AB song, like EBTTRT or Ultraviolet or Until the End of the World, etc.

 

[Wildhit]

I definately predict that Until the End of the World will be put back into the set list (at least I hope so, it's been my dream to experience the song live!). I'm actually hoping for more 90's material like something from Zooropa or Pop. And I could go for Mysterious Ways being put back into the encore.

As for 80's stuff, "Gloria" or "Out of Control" would be nice for the beginning of the show.

UTEOTW wouldn't work in that spot, you'd need to shove it between or after Fly and Zoo Station. Zoo is an amazing opener for the first encore.

I like the OOTs to WOWY transition, though.

 

[Joshua87]

There will be no changes from the 2nd leg. Same songs, same order.

Haha, I like to think that so I'm usually pleasantly surprised. 26 or 27 songs is a bit much. How bout this:

1. Love and Peace or Else
2. Vertigo
3. All Because of You
4. I Will Follow
5. Elevation
6. Beautiful Day
7. Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
8. All I Want is You
9. Gone
10. Until the End of the World
11. New Year's Day
12. Sometimes...
13. Bad
14. Sunday Bloody Sunday
15. Bullet the Blue Sky
16. Please...<HRT>
17. Pride
18. Where the Streets Have No Name

19. Zoo Station
20. The Fly or Ultraviolet haha
21. One

22. With or Without You
23. Original of the Species
24. Yahweh

Not exactly what I would like, but realistic enough

 

[Harbinger]

Some things that I'd like to see:

- More rotation in opener/early stuff like the first leg:

Electric Co. / An Cat Dubh / Into the Heart
Gloria / The Ocean
I Will Follow / Out of Control

- Vertigo only being played twice IF it opens the show (and not necessarily then, either)

- Rotation on openers in multi-night stands

- Rotation between Running to Stand Still, Miss Sarajevo, and (new) Please

- Rotation between Pride and (new) Crumbs

- Original of the Species --> With or Without You instead of (or rotated with) Yahweh

- Rotation in the Zoo set:

Zoo Station / The Fly / Mysterious Ways
The Fly / Until the End of the World / Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
just to name a couple

So that gives us something like the following:

City of Blinding Lights
Vertigo
Out of Control
I Will Follow
Elevation
New Years Day
Beautiful Day
Miracle Drug
Sometimes
Love and Peace or Else
Sunday Bloody Sunday
Bullet the Blue Sky
Running to Stand Still

Zoo Station
The Fly
Mysterious Ways
All Because of You

[God Part III]

hope they drop zoostation and pick another AB song, like EBTTRT or Ultraviolet or Until the End of the World, etc.

Zoo Station is the best song during the encores.
Drop The Fly.
I never thought I'd say this, but the song has turned a bit stale in my opinion.
Zoo Station -> Until The End Of The World.
Please.

 

[Theedge070]

Zoo Station is the best song during the encores.
Drop The Fly.

Zoo Station -> Until The End Of The World.
Please.

I'd drop The Fly and replace it with Mysterious Ways (making it a regular) anyday! The Vertigo Tour Fly isn't anywhere as good as Elevation's was.

EDIT: Someone was kind enough to tell me I fogot Original of the Species, the next U2 single. And they were right. Eeek!

 

[Axver]

I can't believe anyone has a bad word to say about this tour's Fly. Absolutely the best the song has ever sounded. Definitely keep that one in the set! MW/WOWY can go, though.

 

[Lo-Fi]

We all thought they'd make the effort and make big changes for Europe and that never happend, so I don't think this leg will be any different. I hope I'm wrong, but they don't seem to be giving themselves a lot of rehearsal time before the first show to learn a lot of new songs, so that suggests same old same old.

 

[Theedge070]

I can't believe anyone has a bad word to say about this tour's Fly. Absolutely the best the song has ever sounded. Definitely keep that one in the set! MW/WOWY can go, though.

I like Fly from this tour, but not as much as Elevation's version was. Bono didn't play guitar so he had the freedom to run around the stage and jump into the crowd on occassion. Now he plays guitar, so he has limited mobility, and his voice has been attributed that muffled underwater-sounding effect in the mic.

The graphics that show up during the song are good, though.

 

[Joshua_Tree_Hugger]

I think 26-27 songs is a bit long for a set... can't really see the band going along with it. Maybe 23 songs (excluding snippets) would be realistic, IMO.
