Anybody else listening to the CFOX thing?
That Buzzcocks song was really good.

ending with Bad or All I Want is You is preferred, at least those have a great climax. I know everyone loves 40, but it can drag on. MOS was even worse because there was no singalong with it. loved the 5th leg Vertigo encores. Saints are Coming/Desire or Angel of Harlem/Kite or AIWIY or One Tree Hill. something like that would be great
WOWY/MOS was such a snoozy way to end the huge spectacle of 360. I'm fine with a slow ending as long as there's release (Love is Blindness with the guitar solo, One/extra song after Mysterious Ways on Popmart, et al)
glad I registered here to have these conversations, my more casual friends have no idea what I'm talking about

I am. The band's song choices have been great.

If I had wifi or a home isp, I totally would listen to the Vancouver station.

Love that photo!! Our team talked with Guy, but he said nothing about coming do Brazil :grr: ... Just sang "Parabens".
Yep, agreed. I think the ideal way to still get in 40 is how they did it at some Vertigo shows, with a reasonably lengthy 40 snippet near the end of Bad. If it weren't for One Tree Hill at Auckland II, that would be the greatest closer U2's ever had.

Bad/40 is the best way to end a show.

I can't wait to hear what they play tonight! I have a feeling the first song will probably be "the miracle".

I'm very hopeful they stick to their guns this tour, and keep playing lots of the new stuff.
I don't want to see them repeat the 360 tour - where for the first time ever they morphed into band playing the "greatest hits". I thought that tour had so much potential....and I was very disappointed as a hard core fan. (Though I can understand that the casual fans probably loved it.). To a lesser degree, we saw the same thing with Popmart.
I hope they give the haters and naysayers a big middle finger this time around, and just stick with the plan. I think this album can stand on its own and truly be the backbone of this tour.

When does everyone think the "experience " album will come out? My guess will be before the third leg of the tour.

Maybe august/16? It has to be before the Latin America concerts, in order to get the stage ready for stadiums. I hope so

Part of the reason 360 changed was the lengthy delay. Bono's back recovery took months. And since not only was NLOTH not doing well, but it was the 20th anniversary of AB, a move towards that material made more sense. I saw 360 in Tampa in 09 and then in both E Lansing and Pittsburgh. It was almost as if I'd seen two different tours because there were so many changes. That said, I loved having the experience of both the NLOTH material and the ZooTv-style AB nostalgia-esque shows. Seeing them perform Streets on a stage as magnificent as The Claw while using the same exact JT footage that was used on ZooTv...it was stunning.

Surprised he has to wait in line.

As long as it's not an intro to Wake Up Dead Man. That would feel awkward.

Fair enough. I saw the Seattle show. It was definitely the AB-centered show, which was cool, being a fan of AB myself. But I really felt like something was missing. I wanted more NLOTH songs. I felt like they weren't touring an album. I felt like I was truly watching an AB tribute show....and maybe that's exactly what it was.

I'm betting we see something like Kite or Sometimes as a tribute to Mr Mullen for a few shows. They won't NOT mention it.
