The Fly
I have seen a lot different artists in concert, but I have never seen anyone open a show with 8 consecutive tracks from their current release like U2 did during the opening leg of ZOO TV. I thought it was a bold statement about the bands confidence in their new material. I also figured the fact that Achtung Baby sounded so different from everything that came before, it would have been harder to place older tracks next to the newer material throughout the show. It also unfortunately lead to little set list variation which I hate.
Just curious what others thought about a block of new tracks opening the show back then and would they be receptive to it this time around.
