No 19 snippet.

Never heard of this song. Enlighten me?

 

[mellow moog]

Thank you kabigon.

Anyone else who was at the other Chicago shows wishing they were there tonight?!?

I gotta friend posting live pics on facebook. God, even when I wanted to avoid it, every now and then...PING!!!!

 

[Pop Artist]

When Meerkat actually works, the quality is a lot better than Periscope.

Bono usually snippets two seconds of it when he does the "n-n--n-n-nineteen" bit in the Bullet rant.

 

[Diane L]

Too-long pants + elevator heels = Bono falling if he isn't careful.

And that's the last thing he needs!

 

[littleheartsuitcase]

Cori got it

Hello all. Just got home from work. I see that I didn't miss much. Ah, so little variation. Other than Gloria, that's awesome.

Miracle Drug
Troubles(or will it pop up tonight?)

As much as I freaking LOVED seeing WLCTT via feeds & YT vids, I am convinced the only reason it appeared at all was for BB King. Shame, as it went over REALLY well from the sounds of it! They could easily slip it into the AoH/Desire spot!

And MD/COBL should rotate. Period. COBL is great but the encore needs more of a shakeup than a closer.

You'd think they would have played When Love Comes to Town, Chicago being a blues kinda place and all.

Yes, the way this concert was talked up so much, I expected a little more excitement in the set list, but I really do think they are bound by their template!

However, I think they sound fantastic!

 

[corianderstem]

As much as I freaking LOVED seeing WLCTT via feeds & YT vids, I am convinced the only reason it appeared at all was for BB King.

Of course that's why it was played.

Miracle Drug is deader than a doornail. Which is fine. I like the song, but it was a really odd choice.

[kabigon]

Bad

Is it my mix or does the intro sound Popmartish?

 

[littleheartsuitcase]

BAD *memories of Chicago 2*

 

[PopmuzikMofo]

OMG YESSS!!!!!!!!

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

Bad!

Now they better friggin do 40.

 

[RioRhodes]

Is it me or are Periscopes losing connection like crazy tonight?

 

[U2FanPeter]

Hello all. Just got home from work. I see that I didn't miss much. Ah, so little variation. Other than Gloria, that's awesome.

California is the biggest deal tonight

 

[littleheartsuitcase]

What do you think the end song will be... ISHF, One, or 40? or something else? I really hope it's not ISHF because it's so awkward.

I also noticed, is this just on this tour? The extremely high pitched warbly Edge guitar noise during this song.

 

[RioRhodes]

California is the biggest deal tonight

But... In Chicago?

 

[kabigon]

Definitely sounds a bit different..

 

[corianderstem]

They played it in Vancouver, which is also not California.

 

[Diane L]

Bad!!!
