Vancouver Setlist Party (OPENING NIGHT!)

[RedHill Townie]

I am so glad Foxboro has paper tickets. And I feel awful for everyone stuck outside.[/QUOTE/]

Me too and I'll be there too dg

Plus there's Patriot Place if anyone needs a distraction

 

[lisag71]

Damn it..... Guess I should have waited, but I was hoping to catch a perascope link

 

[Yahweh]

Basically the same setlist that they've been rehearsing. I would enjoy it very much had I been able to get tickets

 

[AndrewCowley]

Too short setlist. Needs at least 3 more songs on each side of the JT set.

 

[RioRhodes]

Leaving UTEOTW out of a setlist is depressing. I hope it makes a comeback soon.

 

[AndrewCowley]

Also an 80's themed show without Bad = facepalm

 

[Axver]

Those first diehards are all inside. GA that isn't getting in at this point are people that haven't been in line that long.

Do you mean to imply that the people who haven't been in line aren't diehards?

Because there's no way I'm showing up before doors in London or Berlin and I doubt anybody would say I'm not a diehard.

Seems like a 9 o'clock start from U2 then.

Wanna know what their Space Oddity/People Have The Power is this year! Can't wait to hear it.

Yep, that's my one complaint.

No shit. It's the obvious segue into Streets, or ASOH is. The clunky Pride/Streets segue from Vertigo should not be revived.

 

[Yahweh]

To me this setlist was always going to be a "retro" one. I am surprised they are playing anything off Achtung Baby and beyond. Outside of a new track or two to wet people's appetite

No, "first diehards." Keyword being "first."

 

[superchuk5]

Ah so it appears the rehearsal spoilers have been revealed. Yeah, the show is too short in its current form. Hopefully it will grow. However, we are getting some incredible rarities.

I am not reading the setlist, but since someone posted a picture I accidentally saw one title. And I am very happy to see that title is making the show. I didn't think they'd actually do it, but looks like they are. I tip my hat to the band for taking that risk.

 

[jrcjohnny99]

Yep, that's my one complaint.

Yeah, "Bad' will be sorely missed, especially as it was the centrepiece of the original JT tour

 

[RoKKeR]

Yeah, I will say that Bad not showing up in rehearsals is surprising and incredibly disappointing.

 

[trevgreg]

To be fair, they said the first diehards. Not the second or third wave of them and such.

 

[Yahweh]

It wouldn't surprise me though if that isn't the real setlist

I saw them at the old Sullivan Stadium remember that old place? Gillette is a bit more..... Comfortable

 

[AndrewCowley]

So the rehearsals were fake too?

 

[superchuk5]

Any updates on the ticket scanning situation? Are we looking at a late start?

 

[Rachel D.]

I'm going to bed.

The setlist will most likely get longer as the tour goes on, unless they feel like they can't be on stage for more than 120 minutes anymore.

(Still baffles me that the setlist is only 22 songs)

 

[Axver]

No, "first diehards." Keyword being "first."

Right, I just read the tone of "people that haven't been in line that long" as implying they don't matter so much or won't care if they miss a few songs. Sorry, didn't mean to misread you. Seen too many comments over the years that you're only a proper fan if you're willing to sit on your arse outside a stadium for hours upon hours.

360 started at 22 and ended at 26. That's the truth I hold on to in hope that by the time they hit DC they will be playing a 24 song set.

 

[prbiker15]

Hey, it's everyone's favorite Mixlr stream!

Sil Rigote is on Mixlr. Mixlr is a simple way to share live audio ...

Crossing my fingers the set hits at least 24 songs by the European leg.

No worries!

I thought that was obvious to everyone

 

[Yahweh]

It would be nice if the set was about 25 songs but there is a few things that go into a U2 show. Its not just them on the stage - hasn't been since the early 80s. There will be video and technology - even though it won't be as forward as some of the tours. Bruce Springsteen can basically play what he wants when he wants because its just him and the band on the stage. Sometimes I wish U2 would go back to this approach but I think they like the technology too much.

The album is fake. The real setlist is Vertigo 21 times (with a Hands That Built America snippet after #12), and closing with In a Little While

 

[dan_smee]

My body is ready - anyone got revs on the best periscope to follow? It seems no one is live now, but a kind user up in the seats with a good view of the screen and clear audio has to be online soon
