Also, I think a 2nd, shorter encore is needed. Just come out after “13” and do a quick old school rocker like OOC, Electric Co or Gloria, then end with something epic like Bad or 40.

Cedarwood-Iris-Sunday felt like watching a replay of the tour a few years ago, even the same graphics on screen, even with ommitting the entire Joshua Tree they couldn't find some spots for something 'rare' or unique other than Acrobat, and Acrobat cannot carry or make/brake an entire show the way Bad or 40 could. Discoball coming down? Surely something like Discotheque right? Nope, again the remix of EBTTRT....I mean come on. Hope something will happen in Amsterdam, I go there twice in a month, but looking back at the other setlists now, my god. Always feels strange to complain about my favourite live band but this show did absolutely nothing for me tonight. Well at least he didn't have many long and drawn-out speeches about africa or refugees this time, that was the only positive. |

I agree that Discotheque should replace EBTTRT. I think U2 lean on AB too much.

I’m seeing them next month in London but gone are the days I would aim for 2-3 shows just to see some rotation
The lack of comment here says it all , this has evolved into one of their laziest tour ever. Gone is the spirit that made the late 80’s / early 90’s going to a u2 gig special . I usually be buzzing about next month but this time feels like I going to mass on a Sunday . |

Cologne #2 Setlist Thread
I think also as I get older I’m just less mesmerized by things like music and concerts. I remember during Elevation and Popmart concerts I was completely awestruck. Ever since the 360 tour, I find myself just feeling like I’m watching a friend’s band play or something. I still really enjoy U2’s music and concerts, but I just am not capable of reproducing that feeling that I had as a teenager. I am this way with other bands as well.

The whole thing happened really quick. I just kinda waved and said “hey Adam! Great show!” He kindly smiled and nodded at me, and I kept walking to my car. Myself in my teens - early 20’s would’ve been all “WE’RE NOT WORTHY!!!” |
