The friendliest place on the web for anyone that follows U2.
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
I'd love this set...but I'd surprised if they play so many tracks from the new album. I think Moment of Surrender into Magnificent would be amazing as the joyful climax U2 like to have at the end of their main sets (similar to Bad into Streets on the Elevation tour).

1. No Line On The Horizon
2. Get On Your Boots
3. Vertigo
4. Gloria
5. Beautiful Day
6. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
7. The Unforgettable Fire
8. City of Blinding Lights
9. Unknown Caller
10. Sunday Bloody Sunday
11. Please
12. The Wanderer
13. Kite
14. Original of the Species
15. All I Want Is You

They won't close with 40 again. This I know. Everything else is up for grabs, but I REALLY hope that they finally decide to drop Bullet and New Year's Day.
 
thiers been a string of bands that have tried doing new albums in thier entirety. don't seem them doing it. but if they did, i would wish they would do hits/album cuts first half, NLOTH second half. or vice versa. but thats not gonna happen. i;m gonna try this. based on what they have done live before. so no acrobat. lol. but mabey a album cut from a previous tour.

rotating 3 or 4 tunes a night would be great
Bring back 40 to close!
 
in gods country, late in the set. thats good. i do belive, they can tie in ceders to bullet. in fact i;m leaning toward that happening.
 
My Setlist (if this happens, I'll crap myself)

House lights go out, crowd roars, the FEZ intro begins . . .

Circular video board above stage begins to flicker with light . . .

Band reaches stage in darkness halfway through minute-long FEZ intro . . .

Video screen starts to flicker on and off, band members take their positions, and launch into:

MAIN SET:

1) No Line on the Horizon -->
2) Get On Your Boots (with "Let Me in the Sound" intro) -->
3) Magnificent
4) I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight
5) Beautiful Day
6) Even Better Than the Real Thing -->
7) Vertigo -->
8) Until the End of the World -->
9) New Year's Day
10) Desire (Acoustic)
11) Angel of Harlem (Acoustic)
12) Moment of Surrender
13) Unknown Caller -->
14) Where the Streets Have No Name
15) Pride (In the Name of Love)

----

ENCORE 1:

16) City of Blinding Lights
17) Breathe
18) Stand Up Comedy
19) Mysterious Ways
20) One

----

ENCORE 2:

21) Elevation
22) With or Without You -->
23) All I Want is You -->
24) Bad

Tell me that set wouldn't top everything they've ever done :drool: :applaud:
 
Here is a possible setlist with some idea's for lighting and effects tied in with the songs.A few of these songs I highly doubt will get played but i like creating setlists that are fun too.

Set list Educated Guess

This is more of a logical guess (with a few WILD guesses), and I think the songs will probably be fairly accurate, but maybe not the order. And I highly doubt they'll play EIGHT songs from the new CD, but I could not decide which one they won't (besides the title track, I don't see them playing it and I think it's ONE of the reasons it's not the name of the tour!).

Fez Intro
1. Magnificent
2. Even Better Than The Real Thing
3. Moment of Surrender
4. Fast Cars (wild card there but you never know)
5. Vertigo
6. Get On Your Boots
7. All Because of You
8. New Years Day
9. Elevation
10. Unknown Caller
11. Stand Up Comedy
12. I Will Follow or Gloria (some early 80s favorite)
13. With Or Without You
14. Pride
15. I'll Go Crazy if I Don't Go Crazy Tonight
16. Where the Streets Have No Name
17. Bad
18. Breathe
19. City of Blinding Lights
20. Beautiful Day
21. Gone
22. Walk On
23. One
24. White as Snow or Cedars of Lebannon

Breakdown:

8 - NLOTH (highly doubt this but then again, they do love love love this CD!)
4 - HTDAAB
3 - ATYCLB
1 - Pop
2 - AB
2 - UF
2 - JT
1 - War
1 - pre-War

This is not my dream set list, which is in some other post, as this was (Mods: Please delete my other post of this in the other Setlist thread). This is my LIKELY setlist

No doubt I've missed a glaringly obvious inclusion! >_<
 
Oops, apologies. :D

Rotate Bad with All I Want Is You or a rare track and we have a winner, in my opinion anyway.
