I noticed this on the rehearsal list. AFAIK, it's been been infrequently played since the summer.
Is With or Without now in the main set?

I'd be open to One --> One Step Closer (snippet) --> Streets.
I'd love for OSC to appear live, even in snippet form. Not going to happen though, it seems.

That's a great idea
I'm very curious to see what this "reworking Streets" idea is too
Streets needs to close the main set like PopMart, none of this One speech -> One crap killing the momentum

No, what they need is to ditch the whole Streets intro and go back to the way they've been doing it up until this tour. Red screen, lights on during the intro, etc.

The setlist stinks. That's all I'll say about it.

Should I already start "The Official Thread: South America Got Fucked (Again)"?

probably not a good idea to misquote 11 O’clock Tick Tock around a U2 fan (perhaps they are rehearsing that - it would be fun to see how many u2 fans would spontaneously combust at the mere thought
)I thought a better analogy would have been from Zooropa
It's cold outside but brightly lit
but then again it seems that the band has a severe case of amnesia concerning the events from 1993-1999 so I can see the overlook there

Rehearsals threw up some changes: new visuals in some places and, as our shot shows, Original of the Species looked particularly stunning.
WOW!
Finally something I agree on with u2.com.
Looks like there's been some creative rethinking of 'Streets' too, but more of that after the first show.
What if "One" is dropped from the setlist and the main set ends with "Where the streets have no name" with African flags at the beginning that as the song goes on are gradually replaced by red lights and Bono talking about RED.

It's Original of the Species for sure. He played the acoustic guitar for that song on the last dates of the 3rd leg.

It's not that I dislike "One" either.
I just think it's overplayed way too much.
It's one of a few songs that hardly ever is left out.
And I'm just of the opinion that some of them need some retirement.
Imagine if it is dropped.
WOW!
Everybody would be
Although I think chances are higher that Pride will be the song that gets dropped.
Seeing as it wasn't on the list of songs that was rehearsed.

I hate to give this correction, but it's not just hardly ever left out, but NEVER left out. Since its debut at ZooTV's opening show, it hasn't missed a full tour gig.

If either Pride or One are dropped, I will reach through my computer screen and hug every single person in the setlist party.
If both are dropped, I won't hug anyone because I'll be lying on the floor after collapsing from joyful shock.

I felt a bit cheated at the show I went to when I heard the paltry Pride -> Streets transition, the songs individually were great, but no red lights, no smoke, no Running... harmonica, no All I Want is...YOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUs
it was like asking for sex and getting a candy bar, still good, but not as satisfying
