Toronto III Setlist Watch and Party, Part III - DO NOT POST U2.COM SETLIST!

[oceane]

Oceane, thanks again for posting the setlist and filling us in with all the details.
It's very much appreciated!

My pleasure! I felt like I needed to share before going to bed

One last thing I forgot to say:

Sunday Bloody Sunday was different. During the bridge, when Bono usually talks about Father Abraham, he made the crowd do the three claps like during the Elevation Tour, and asked Bruce to turn on the lights so he could see us. He talked about Coexist and Father Abraham, but it was completely different than usual, and about a thousand times better.

Not sure about Jonnhy comes marching home (but don't think so)... no Bullet with Butterfly wings. Those lyrics could be the right ones, but I'm bot very good with Italian Also, it was just a short snippet. But what a snippet

That'd be strange if they dropped Johnny, as I think it's been done in every Bullet this tour. And I can't wait to hear this Italian snippet.

Thanks again for all the information! Have a great show tomorrow - wait, do I even need to say that?

 

[oceane]

I really think if they are going to play only two songs in the first encore, it should be Zoo Station/Fly or UTEOTW/Fly. Definitely Fly second, as it has the "gotta go" line and makes sense there!

Even if it has to be first, following it with WOWY just seems peculiar to me. Did it seem disjointed to you there?

And are you going to tomorrow's show? I'm really excited about that one's set!

Yes, I am going tomorrow as well, and am planning to be in the line early (hence why I should go to bed, but I have so much things to say about the show, I could go on forever!)

Maybe I'll stop by that same 24hours internet cafe on my way to the hotel tomorrow night also!

 

[Axver]

Would BD --->UTEOTW--->COBL work?
I think I would like that even better.
Kinda tired of NYD.
Sorry.

I think I'd want a slower song, or at least one featuring keyboards, to flow into COBL. Something rocking like UTEOTW may work if they ended it properly, but I just can't hear the ending of UTEOTW flowing into the intro of COBL in my head.

I'd LOVE October --> COBL

 

[oceane]

Ok now, good night for real

 

[Utoo]

adios, oceane! Thanks again! enjoy tomorrow!

Awesome! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts after that one too! Have a good one!

 

[Utoo]

So, back to tim-tams...

 

[Axver]

So, back to tim-tams...

I had one while the power was down. Best part of the two hours ...

 

[Utoo]

I think I might actually order some online. All this talk has me curious..!

 

[Utoo]

All in all, I'm pretty happy with the setlist tonight. It would have been fun to see live.

 

[Utoo]

Good night, Axver--I'm off to bed!

 

[Axver]

You really should!

Have a good night!

I think it was good, though not exceptional until the second encore. Glad COBL opened.

 

[Utoo]

You really should!

Have a good night!

I will & I will! Have a good day!

 

[Axver]

I hope the rest of today for me is, uh, electrifying.

do i just got back from my first u2 show ever!!! holy christ, the bad was on fire tonight, not just edge. It was an amazing show and an experience i will never forget. When i grow old, I will always have certain life-changing moments to look back on; the day i met my wife, the day i married her, the day i had my first child and the day i saw U-friggin-2!!!

When i'm coherent i will be sure to post a review.

 

[fandangamoq]

by the way, the out of control was very very cool. it was so awesome seeing them pull something right out of the hat. and for those of you who would say "they always play out of control" they did play in a different key that was requested by the rookie band, and adapted completely to having four new musicians on-stage with them. even if it wasn't a huge difference for the band, the key change is huge for a singer, and bono really jumped to form

Anyways. I should go to bed now, unless anyone has any more questions, because I will line-up again early tomorrow. From a personal point of view, this was my best Vertigo show so far. I can't really say why (my perfeft spot on the outside rail probably helped a lot), but I was just completely into it tonight. I felt every word, every song, like it was going straight to my soul, despite the fact that I had seen this show 6 times already. I don't think I've ever felt so much love for U2 as tonight. It's hard to explain... I really reached U2 heaven. I was completely hysterical from start to finish. It was such a good night for me... but maybe other people will think differently.

Well, I just got in from the bar, and am honestly pretty drunk, but I can tell you that U2 heaven is the best kind to reach...until REAL Heaven that is. This band gives you something that no other band possibly could. It's an intangible thing. Not sure how to describe it, but I definitely felt it when I saw them live. And I feel it now when I hear their music. This band is very, very special. Period. I'm off to spend time with my favorite person in the world. Good night all you awesome, crazyU2 fans. Talk to you soon!

 

[cleazer]

Sounds like a brilliant show! I'm glad everyone there had a blast!

 

[bcrt2000]

It was an INCREDIBLE show. My first U2 one. The sound was a bit oversaturated or something, at least from my section (306). But I still enjoyed every bit of it.

They screwed up some old song from Boy I think, they tried playing it and then Bono was like well I guess we shouldn't try playing a 20 year old song with 20 minutes of rehearsals.

Okay, wtf happened over night? I read someone came in with the whole setlist before U2.com had it, but the one they posted wasn't the same as the one on U2.com that was posted later on...

Was there OOC? What about Daniel Lanois during One?

Regardless, the two setlists had a very short 1st encore...

Well said... I felt the same thing after Wednesday's show...my closest U2 experience. The HTDAAB songs are much more vibrant for me now, especially COBL and MD. They've got a quality no other band has, like you say. It's not based around pure musicianship, but something greater...

 

[RavenBlue]

Wow it looked as though it was quite a good show, great setlist by the looks of things.

 

[ChangeTheTemperature]

This is the band that was pulled up on stage for Out of Control

http://www.menew.com/main.html


One of MENEW's greatest inspirations is U2. It was one of the reasons they started the band. Other influences include: The Beatles, David Bowie, The Cure, and Oasis to name a few.

 

[Knapster]

I am sooooo jealous...
I was there for show II, and they didn't play OOC, one of my favourites!

Awsome show on Wednesday as well, although we didn't call BB and sing happy birthday to him.
