OH GOD...PLEASE DON'T SHAVE UR HEAD BONO!!!!!!

 

[chrissybaby]

If the setlist tonight is the same as Monday's i'm not going to visit here for a few days! The disappointment/anger will be unpleasant to say the least!

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

thinking maybe they may replace the zoo set with a pop set... that would be awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Boomcha bitches!!

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

I have my students listening to Pop today in honor of theses developments!

Mofo!!!

 

[U2Girl1978]

I have to wait until December to hear all this stuff. Goddamn school!!!

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

Boomcha bitches!!

Yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we are!

 

[randhail]

SHAVE YOUR HEAD.

DO IT!

DO IT NOW!!

 

[U2@NYC]

Mofo...

Not sure about how this would work in the current setlist...

 

[MCF74]

The possible inclusion of Mofo in the setlist is the best news I've heard in a LONG, LONG time!

I was just thinking yesterday if they added Mofo that the whole arena could tremble from the energy of the song itself and the crowd's reaction. Oh, please let this be true!

 

[U2Man]

Mofo...

Give it a chance at least, you

 

[U2@NYC]

Give it a chance at least, you

I want them to play 'I'm Too Sexy' or 'Whoomp! There It Is'... the rest of the announcements are crapola...

U2 is done, they should retire.

Well, I am confused as I do not know whether a lot of the people in the crowd will know Mofo, given that Pop is not such a well-known album...

I knew it. pfffft.

 

[kellyahern]

Boomcha bitches!!

Now that's an idea for a t-shirt if I ever heard one . . .

 

[U2@NYC]

I knew it. pfffft.

Why? You and other posters in that forum are super shallow and only want U2 to play U2 songs! Why prevent the audience from hearing them covering great anthems? Why?

WHY?

If some people are open enough to accept the fact that Kanye West (= crapola) is opening some shows, why don't we allow Right Said Fred to duet with the boys?

Otherwise, U2 is doomed.

And if damn U2.com posts the setlist before the end of the show I will hack their site and transform it into a dog poop lover forum...

 

[TheBrazilianFly]

Wow, I never expected Mofo to be soundchecked. I hope they change the song a bit so we can get a new version (hopefuly a more rock n' roll version). I hope they don't stop playing Zoo Station for good though.

 

[God Part III]

If you wear that velvet dress would be nice to hear.

They have snippeted it at the end of All I Want Is You.

Pop may be a better known album than you think. Even if it wasn't, the fans that haven't heard Mofo will be introduced to a rollicking, high-energy song that kicks some serious ass. To me, this is a great way for U2 to re-introduce the Pop album to all of it's fans, new and old.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

Now that's an idea for a t-shirt if I ever heard one . . .

oh yeah...

Great Idea kellly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


i'd buy one!

Not sure how men would react to a "Boom-cha Bitch" T-shirt if you wear it on your first date...

I agree that Mofo is a high-energy song, but it played a different role in Popmart, where it was used to get the crowd pumped for the beginning of the show... my sense is that, in Popmart, the crowd was more excited by U2's appearance than by the song itself... I might be wrong and would be happy to be proved otherwise.

go for it!!!!!!!!!!! I won't tell even if they handcuff me and put the big spotlight on me.

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

I'm intrigued as to why all of a sudden they're pulling out these songs. I would love to know how there mind works. Maybe they finally did get sick of playing the same thing day after day, although I wonder if any of this will come to the U.S.

Maybe they're just mixing it up for Canada?

Good question. Bono has always said that Pop was much better received in Canada than in the U.S. but I hope you guys get the new additions as well.
