I won't be able to party for most of the day, as I'm babysitting. Kid wakes up in an hour, so after that you'll have to party on without me. I'll be back in the evening.

Does anyone know when the show will start?

For the US the times are 9PM Johannesburg is 1PM CT, 2PM ET, 11AM PT. Looks like its 8PM in Belgium.

Can't wait!! Seems like it's been so long since the last setlist party, I guess since I wasn't able to go to any of the OZ parties due to the timezone.

 

[Galeongirl]

Yeah, Johannesburg is GMT +2 I think.

 

[ramblin rose]

It's fun to read the tweets from the people making their way to the show. Seems like there's a great buzz in the city!!

 

[Pamelakellett]

God I`ve missed these set list parties and I really need cheering up at the mo, so come on lads give us an amazing show and hopefully a live feed

 

[prbiker15]

Gone golfing today, may make it back in time for the setlist party to start.

It's going to be a great show that's for sure. So happy for the South African fans.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

wooohooooo! setlist party! it's been like a million yrs since I have been in one.

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

I have missed this.

Sadly, my computer died last month, and I lost all my bookmarks, so I am without all my favorite setlist graphics.
(The motherboard went BOOM, but the hard drive is salvageable, so we're planning on encasing it and recovering the files, we're hoping to recover bookmarks as well...)

At least one good thing came out of it...I've got a laptop again, so setlist partying is going to be more comfortable this leg! Is it summer yet? I want to see my boys!!!!!

 

[cleazer]

Party time!

 

[Galeongirl]

Sounds like people are getting in, inner circle is filling up.

Gotta go babysit now.

[cleazer]

Wow, look at all those portapotties they've got down on the floor!

Looks like the folks in the front rows are going to be forced to stand up to see over them.

 

[Pamelakellett]

I so want to be there

What I can`t understand is why are those people sitting at the back so early???

[Steved1998]

Glad to see they're changing up the setlist this leg!

I have some friends at that show (and the Cape Town one too). I read some comments of them on Facebook yesterday and then it looked like it would be chaos. Good to see it all turned out well in the end.

Lol, I want it to be summer so I can be put out of the misery of having my show delayed for a year.

Popping in from work I love Johnannesburg after the world cup.
(After we lost the pathetic final )
The orange Seatings of the Stadium just screams Holland
And match the claw!
Glad to hear I'm not the only one that regrets not buying any tickets.

 

[Lila64]

[Popmartijn]

The field is already quite full.
