Brisbane I Set List Party

[Earnie Shavers]

I doubt you'll get BFFTS without them soundchecking it first, ie. giving it a run through on the day. Which means if it's not Sydney, it will if anything probably be at a cities second gig (given that they seem to be flying in from Sydney only later in the afternoon before first gigs.)

Nice. I like North Star. I wonder if any changes have been made to it, and if they did it just Edge/Bono or whatever.

...if you like "this tropical paradise thing". Larry and Adam agree use of expletives an art form. Rain has stopped.

love this!

 

[Earnie Shavers]

How he introduced North Star - if he did at all - will be interesting. Still the "oh, hey, this is something we knocked up this afternoon" business, or something a bit more interesting/revealing?

North Star was still just Bono and Edge, with Edge on electric guitar (i.e. like most past performances). #u2360brisbane

 

[coolian2]

. . . all of that but I think batman for ultra violet tonight

i didn't think they'd do hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me two nights in a row (auckland 2, melbourne 1), so i'm now going to completely flip-flop and expect ultraviolet two nights in a row.

 

[Purplereign]

U2tour U2tour
13) Miss Sarajevo #u2 #u2360 #u2360brisbane


I know lots think this is a momentum killer but I love it live

Should I be worried? They intend to finish the album while on tour, hence the days off (along with the shipping/construction of the Claw I suppose)
yet we still haven't heard a full band version in an actual show.
Or do they just want to surprise us when we have the record in our possession?

13) Miss Sarajevo


I know lots think this is a momentum killer but I love it live

i like it, but when it follows a steaming turd like in a little while it's a real 1-2 punch on momentum.

i've also found the miss sarajevo -> recorded questions -> city of blinding lights run surprisingly moving, including the extra keys before city of blinding lights starts.

ah true, they could do without IALW before it and Miss Sarajevo would have much more power

 

[wendynz]

Its kind of quiet between songs when you have no live feeds isn't it. Purple have you been to any of the concerts in Oz yet or will Sydney be your first one?

eternal optimist says they can't replicate what they have in the studio live. realist knows this isn't likely the case.

Activity wise in here, yeah.
But not if you ask my ears. Currently going through this gold-mine of the unofficial fruitlegs: U2 Fruitlegs

sydney 1 & 2 will be the first and last on this tour (unless the lotto gods feel like smiling on me!) and, ooooooosh I'm excited

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

Finally here. What have I missed?
