I know someone mentioned Pearl Jam earlier too as an example of a band that busts out rarities and the crowd goes nuts... I'm a pretty big PJ fan and have seen them several times, and I think that overall PJ and U2 sets are actually pretty similar - a healthy dose of whatever new album they're...

Everyone is right... flagman was the best part of the set. He reminded me of the guy wh used to be in the Mighty Mighty Bosstones who just danced around and that was his job in the band....
Oh - and two Marley songs they covered were Could You Be Loved and Exodus.
