Edge's playing is back on track, sounds like.

"we have to go away and ... and dream it all up again..."

Actually he followed up "god knows when... " with "Not such a beautiful day... "

Oy. Not a good thing to hear.

Perhaps B man was given a certain amount of years left to live?

I'm hoping it was just an ill placed reference to the weather, but yeah, not exactly a hopeful statement...

 

[The_acrobat]

If U2 don’t release anything or tour by 2022 or 2023, then we can panic about the end being near. Otherwise, it’s just business as usual.

2022 seems so far away. But it’s only 4 years out. 4 years ago, SOI was released. That doesn’t feel like it was very long ago to me.

 

[The_acrobat]

Also, hopefully Landlady returns, and stays in the set for the Berlin DVD filming. I’m all about having pro-shot versions of as many songs as possible.

Also, RIP Red Flag Day... you deserved better. Now you’ll always be the song that broke Bono’s voice. Glad I got to see you in person!

 

[jachba]

Landlady!

 

[jachba]

The crowd singing "How long" from "40" after City of Blinding Lights was a nice touch.

 

[RoKKeR]

Just walked out of the show, it was really good but man, crowd singing 40 and then not playing it was a real burn. Really thought they would.

Landlady was a nice touch, my pops was so stoked. His favorite new song.

Good stuff all around, could be a while before we see them again.

How did Dirty Day go down with the crowd?

The weather has been crap the last couple of days in Dublin, I wouldn't read anything into it

Must admit I don't get the love for Landlady, it's u2 at their most Coldplay-ish a bland bit guitar pop

 

[zoocarolina]

"Last show in our hometown until God knows when..."

We all know the end is not as far as the start and I’m just enjoying every chance we get, guessing they will lay low in 2019 and start to dream it all up again in 2020.

 

[RoKKeR]

How did Dirty Day go down with the crowd?

I thought better yesterday than today personally, but maybe that was the excitement of hearing it for the first time.

 

[dazzledbylight]

they did sign a new contract, what, last year?

Will be definitely looking forward to the DVD!
And having not watched any of the Euro shows on yt looking forward to that as well.

Flew in from Philly this week and explored the whole country. Weather was off and on but that’s what we expected in November. I will say the set in Europe was just so much better than the States. Sat in the stands (Block G) on Monday and GA floor tonight. The energy in the stands was brutal I thought. 90% of the audience even in that front section sat the whole show. When we stood for Zoo, The Fly, Horses (high energy songs) people kept asking us to sit. My response was am I really in Dublin? Was shocked by that. Was expecting more from the crowd but didn’t even touch MSG or some other US shows where very few people sat. Energy was much much better on floor. Really glad we came because not sure how long it will be until we meet again. They’ve earned a long multi-year break after the last few years of heavy touring. All in all, great show and great set. The majority of the fellow U2 fans in Europe were awesome and it was great to explore the country as well. Killarney was great, as was the ride through Dingle. Will follow along for the final show in Berlin. Was a bit sad during 13 tonight knowing this is it for awhile. Similar feeling to being at Magnetic Hill in Canada for the 360 finale. Looks bleak now but health allowing they’ll be back.

Wow, the setlist really has changed over time. It sort of became the Zoo TV tour in the middle lol. There's about eight songs in this setlist that weren't played at my show, so it would've been really cool if I had been at this one, too. But that would have been totally impossible based off of my current life situation

So one more show? They've been touring for awhile, they deserve a break. Hopefully the tour ends on a positive note.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

This should have been the set from day 1. The rehashing of the last tour was a waste of real estate.
