Is there any reason why the setlist isn't being updated or doesn't state its still in progress...they can't have finished the show after Mysterious Ways..
 
i dunno.. maybe they went off and they're gonna come back on for an encore.

Hello,

Just got this from YouTwo:
At least seven people have been arrested at today's U2 gig at Slane Castle. Charges range from public order offences to larceny. There have also been more than 90 drug seizures.

Despite the arrests, Gardaí have reported a relatively quiet day. Speaking to RTÉ News, Chief Superintendent Mick Finnegan said that from a Garda point of view it is a very good operation. He added that they are an excellently behaved crowd.

Off course we are well behaved, every REAL U2 fan is well behaved!

Sorry, DITM is indeed a song covered recently by an English band called Toploader, however, I wish I knew the name of the original artist who wrote it but the name evades me...

I wanna say "Dancing in the moon" is a cover from Van Morrison....

Yellow (snip) is from Coldplay....

That song was a hit last year by Toploader. They'd covered it but I don't know who had the original (it was mid-Seventies IIRC).
