Moncton Setlist Party Part II: The Final Chapter

[Lila64]

Dfit00, yes, that's me screaming 'go Maddy', LOL. I have the video of the whole song on my computer somewhere. What a night, what memories.

If you get the chance, see The National. Great band!

I will check them out.

Truer words have never been spoken. I still rank the National gig I saw ahead of the U2 show I saw.

Looks like they closed with "40"!

RT @zanecarney: @Hoosier2012 they closed with 40 actually!

Maddy?

That's awesome! How did I not see this video before?

Nice! Probably just a snippet, but still a fantastic way to end the tour.

u2tours.com is listing OOC as the last song.

I've seen them twice. The last time was in April when they opened for Arcade Fire in Indy.

Reports are quite scarce. Though I wouldn't be surprised if true.

 

[Lila64]

Can anyone text/call their friends at the show & try & find out?

 

[ntalwar]

Zane Carney's twitter says 40.

u2gigs Via @Zoomo72, Bono opened champagne and sprayed the audience before 40. #U2360MON

So...confirmed?

 

[ryancoke71]

wut?

 

[angel_28]

They ended with 40?!..

 

[LuckyNumber7]

wut?

I hear champagne and "40"!

 

[U2BROTHR]

Bono sprays champagne on the crowd....they end with 40!

 

[GopherMacPhisto]

They sure waited a LONG time to bring out the bubbly and 40.

 

[ryancoke71]

Did they leave and come back? That sure is quite a delay!

I wish we could have champagne on Interference and turn our sorrows into joy!

 

[prbiker15]

Nope, it was immediately after Out of Control - as said before, Bono sprayed champagne at the crowd before the song began. I knew they would end the show with it. So glad the people at the show got to witness an epic ending.

 

[Dfit00]

This time around Adam and Edge definitely had to switch sides since the whole song was played, and moreover it ended just like Larry ends the Vertigo-Chicago DVD. Those drumbeats at the end are amazing.

I bet Larry was pissed though, too much work for his standards.

Comments: The U2 360 tour ends with three artists on the bill at the Magnetic Hill Music Festival in Eastern Canada. Bono sings a bit of 'The Ballad of Springhill' (AKA Springhill Mining Disaster) in honor of the nearby town devastated by an earthquake in 1958. It's the first time he's sung any of that song since 1987. The show ends with 40, which has only been snippeted twice before on this tour (Pittsburgh and Chicago 2009). The 360 tour ends as the most successful ever, grossing $736 million on sales of 7.2 million tickets.

 

[ryancoke71]

that was actually the ending that made the most sense!

 

[U2Girl1978]

Thx to @zoomo72 and @Dutchelevation -- "40" was full band, each one leaving separately, with Larry last to go

 

[prbiker15]

A good point from @Zoomo72: tour started with a drum solo (Breathe intro) and ended with one (40 outro). #U2360

That's just awesome. To me, it shows how important Larry is in the band! It will sink in soon that U2360 is over.
