13. Every Breath You Take (cover of The Police)

I'd actually been thinking of hypothetical examples like this lately, because I've had exams at school and when I finish early and have time to spare, I muck around with U2 setlists. Quite fun, although I bet the teachers, when they look over my shoulder, think I'm a bit weird ... Anyhow, on with the setlist.

U2: Live at Bonoedge Adamlarry Stadium (Seeing they decided Carrara Stadium was terrible and built a new one just for U2), Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia

1. Tomorrow (I reckon this would make a fantastic opener)
2. Surrender
3. Sunday Bloody Sunday
4. October --> New Year's Day
5. The Cry/The Electric Co.
6. Bullet The Blue Sky
7. Gone
8. 11 O'clock Tick Tock (an absolute must)
9. Until The End Of The World
10. The Fly
11. Mysterious Ways
12. I Will Follow
13. Out Of Control
14. Exit
15. Please
16. Where The Streets Have No Name
17. One Tree Hill

Encore;
18. Bad
19. Gloria
20. One
21. Beautiful Day
22. Walk On --> Hallelujah
