Anyone thing "Boots" will be dropped next year to make room for the new material? And, does anyone think they'll still open with "Breathe"? They won't be promoting "No Sales on the Horizon" anymore

No. Boots is one of their best live songs
Say what?
Casual fans...It gets a strong reaction cause most of the crowd gets bored with the first two songs, then Boots starts and people are like 'yay, i know this one! my 250 bucks may not have gone completely down the drain'

it has been on the us leg.Um hello, Elevation isnt played every night. Your theory is gone

If SOA is really released in the spring, Boots, Crazy Tonight, and possibly Magnificent will stay. The rest will be dropped or rotated. And if SOA turns out to sell well, then I think U2 will be more willing to move on from NLOTH.
Alot of people are going to strongly disagree with me, but if SOA is released, I think they should completely overhaul the setlist. They should drop The Unforgettable Fire, Ultraviolet, Walk On, etc. I LOVED hearing these songs on the tour, but with them dropped, U2 has the chance to bring out some new gems and give them some tour time.
Also, it's one thing to have similar setlists when there is only a few months between legs (IE the first and third legs of the Vertigo Tour). However, I think people coming to their second (or third or whatever) shows when there is, in some cases, going to be almost a year between shows will be really pissed if they are essentially seeing the same show with a few new songs thrown in. And I'm not even really talking about die hard U2 fans, I'm talking more about the casual U2 fan who might've seen them this year and were blown away by the production and want to see U2 again with a new album to promote.
