Most songs feel like nice B-sides ...

Well, I fell asleep during the first listen. It didn't keep my attention and some songs I found them quite boring. My feeling is that a lot of the fire and urgency of the original songs have disappeared in these stripped down reinventions ... when I hear WOWY, SHWILF, Streets, Stay, Dirty Day...

Why didn't anyone in the U2 family come up with the idea of ​​using a hologram of Larry?

OK, the Sphere seems to be a next level musical/visual experience... but does this Vegas residency celebrating their 30-year old album AB justify playing without the founding member of the "Larry Mullen band" ? And fly-in a relatively unknown Dutch drummer? (I am still curious how they ended up...

From one hand very cool they will give shows again. (unfortunately for me as a residency in Vegas...) But the whole thing makes me wonder: 1) Are there contractual issues maybe playing a role? Obligations towards LiveNation to play certain amount of shows? Is there a possibility that the band...

Songs that should be much HIGHER on the list: Mofo PLease Gone ZooStation Kite The Unforgettable Fire Ground Beneath her Feet Landlady Songs that should be MUC lower: The hands that built America Elevation Vertigo Stand Up Comedy The Showman

"...be able to seat 17,500 (and a total of 20,000 including standing capacity)" according to Travel Weekly. (https://www.travelweekly.com/North-America-Travel/The-MSG-Sphere-continues-to-expand-at-the-Venetian). But in this setting it will feel very akward to be in the GA part ...

It looks impressive! But I'm wondering if anyone will look at the band with such a screen? I think they might as well record a concert in advance. ..

Yes that's right! But I'm wondering if the band members have the will and the feeling of urgency that are needed to spend a lot intensive time together for the creative process of making music. Do they still have that deep intrinsic motivation? Are they still willing to go into struggling like...

The ending is indeed a bit of a mess... At ~3:26 it sounds somebody coughs... anyone else hearing this?

Sgt. peppers (Beatles) and Made in Heaven (Queen)

And as a third: U2 1983-1988 War Under a Blood Red Sky The Unforgettable Fire Wide Awake in America The Joshua Tree

Difficult to define what's alt/modern/indie. If U2 falls in this category, then I would also like to add: Pearl Jam 1991-1994 Ten Vs Vitology Springsteen 1975-1980 Born to Run Darkness on the Edge of Town The River Guns n' Roses 1987-1991 Appetite for Destruction G N' R Lies Use Your Illusion...

I listened to "Your Song Saved My Life" and got a bit sad about this meaningless irrelevant song, but after that Spotify directed me into "Until The End of The World", "Acrobat" and "ZooStation" and made me really happy again! :-) Let's hope for an Achtung Baby celebration Tour!

A bit silly to include: "First access to ticket presales, if the band announce tour dates" Tour dates, that will not happen. Smart marketing to state: "This one-off special release, produced by the band especially for U2.com subscribers, will not be on sale online or in store." ...but that...

until today...

yes!! unvelievable!!:drool::drool::drool: This change is great! Gonna be the best e&i show so far... I'm hoping for A'dam 2 :-)

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::applaud::applaud::applaud::applaud: I missed this comment... mwaaahaaaaaa could not agree more on this. But 'These are the hands that built America' is MUCH WORSE even. I have to trow up everytime I hear it (luckily almost never)

But maybe it still gave maximum revenue/profit AND prevented going money to scalpers/secondary market. I think it is understandable that artists don't want scalpers to earn a lot of money but prefer to earn the money themselves. However, there is also choice for a band to keep tickets...

Make him not watch during the MacPhisto part..... honestly think it's WAY too young. Lot's of noise and impressions, it will be too much to handle

i like the setlist. If they pull in Gone, Please and A Sort of Homecoming somewhere, it would be perfect!

If I were u I would buy tickets for New York or Washington.... It is HIGHLY UNLIKELY U2 will add another US leg...

Ok, you are right that comparing with a tour 9 years ago is less valid. (but 360 was after NLOTH, definately not one of their most succesful albums.) Let's compare it with the tour 3 years ago. In 2015, 660.000 tickets were sold within a day! Of course, many of those for European shows. But...
