Istanbul Setlist Party # 1

[ramblin rose]

Another historic night for U2!! Let's see if they break out desire or if that impromptu performance was just for the airport crowd.

Not sure if we will have any audio. Let's hope so!

Showtime in 4 hours.

Stadium looks kind of barren.

[dougal55]

I think the above song is linked with Fehmi Tosun, one of the prisoners of conscience and the name is listed on U2's POP album and she is from Turkey.

Still surprised at the inclusion of that song in rehearsals...no, make that a OMG fecking big surprise!

fingers crossed they will play it tonight... it will be something special as will the entire gig too!

NB the song Im referring to is MOTD, not Mercy.....

Goodbye. It was nice getting to know you guys. (Though some of you liked to complain a lot).

Morning everyone Probably a setlist similar to Moscow and Athens, which is fantastic. I wouldn't be surprised if they did Desire tonight after what happened at the airport.

EDIT: Oh wow, Mercy?? Sounds really good.
