Dear U2 fans and pretenders, 2009 has been a year full of U2. An album, a tour – and the debates here regarding both of it. I've enjoyed staying here for years now –with interruptions – and sharing my point of view, reading the points of view from other fans. I enjoyed helping others with a 26...

So, folks, following the rules of the forum: This thread is not about 360 tour in general (there are many others) nor about the (imposant) stage design. It is neither about the new tracks live. It is designed only for the people, that like to share opinion about the decay of the 'old' tunes in...

...does anybody know, the setlist "The Script" played when supporting our boys in Dub 3? Thanx ...

No, this is not a general thread about 'The Claw', how big & beautiful it is etc. – such a thread already already exists. With only (very) few days left, I would really like to know now – when, how and if at all it will be possible for us fans to get to the inner circle. Silence is golden, but...

...might it not only be a possible real danger for everybody's health, but also a danger for U2's tour plans this year. What do you think? Were there ever tours cancelled because of a situation like this? Don't want to panic that much, but the news, that reaches us here from Mexico City today...

When U2 open their world tour in Spain, I keep my fingers crossed, a full electric rocking "Spanish Eyes" will make it in the setlist this time.:drool: Unfortunately ignored during their last stay in 2005 (though at least rehearsed) this gem B-side from THE JOSHUA TREE, rarely performed, was...

Billboard announced today, the tour will kick off in Barcelona on June 30. Does anybody know, when or whether a 2nd night in Barca will happen? What is more probable, the June 29 or July 1st? And did you hear about the contests, where the winner can attend the tour rehearsal concert (in...

This thread does not intend to go into details about the different tunes or an album review (there are a lot of those threads around now:wink:), but to look at NLOTh from a broader point of view, to see it on a wider horizon, to share opinions about this. My feeling towards the album is, that U2...

Hi y'all, just wanted to ask those of you, who recently did their 'pilgrimage' to the fallen Joshua Tree area. Is the tree still there on the ground – or have the remains been removed. Please tell us your story ...:drool:

It's time for a new perspective on the new album's tracks, I guess. I will try an analytical summary of NLOTH from the journalist's view, with the tunes in a casual running-order: - First the Q-source from November visiting the Olympic Studios and a private session with Bono ... - Second the...

Happy New Year everybody, now with a lot of U2 fans here requesting for a bit more of 90ies and especially 'POP' in the current tour setlists (which is a good idea), I'd like to put an emphasis on an 80ies album too, too much neglected during the last decades: 'THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE' When U2...

Now stuck inbetween an 'old' and a 'new' record, I'd ask the provocative question, if you ever got - Bored by U2 in general? - Bored by a certain phase or performance? - Bored by the hype surrounding them? - Bored by communities likes this here? In other words: Have you ever lost faith in...

Why "U2 3D" is a disappointment ... Two nights ago, I watched the movie in my hometown Munich. Me and my friends have been looking forward to this event for moths. The promoted ground breaking "U2 3D". The ground beneath my feet actually did break, but in another way than hoped for ... The...

Mine are (in no particular order) ... 1. Where The Streets Have No Name 2. 11 O' Clock Tick Tock 3. The Unforgettable Fire 4. Until The End Of The World 5. Exit 6. Drowning Man 7. Please 8. October 9. Bad 10. Vertigo

Hi y'all, just post here the the "best U2 concert" setlist-wise, and give a brief explanation why. Simply "I was there" might not be too satisfying, okay? As a reference page, you might look at www.u2-vertigo-tour.com Though my heart is still banging loudly for the beutiful, beautiful...

Hi y'all, after most of the threads celebrating U2 - logically, because we're all fans - I'd like to open up a thread, throwing some light on the dark side of the moon. Did you experience concerts, where you were disappointed for something happening? If so, please post your memory here ... My...

Hi y'all, does anyone know, if a new volume of "U2 Live: A Concert Documentary" is in progress at the moment? The last edition covered U2's live career until the 'ELEVATION' Tour. So since then a lot has happened, including one of the best live periods of the band ever ... I do know, that...

Hi y'all, there does exist a recording of a U2 show from the 1986 'Conspiracy Of Hope' Tour - might be San Francisco - where the usual Edge-guitar can be heard. But then: Another (masterful)guitar explodes over that sound - a solo reminding me kind of metal/hard rock. Bono doesn't mention the...

Hi y'all, with now the reports about the climate finally being spread all over the media worldwide, Al Gore's documentary being honoured by the Oscar-Academy and getting more attention in the USA plus more and more rumours about the "Live Earth"-gigs really happening, there remains one open...

@all It is really embarassing, how (too) many people treat each other in here. In a lot of discussions there's no tolerance, no feeling for others' attitudes. On the other hand there is the phenomenon, that some people find - related to the anonymity of this medium - a certain strength to bitch...

BARCELONA - song requests: "Spanish Eyes" and "El Pueblo Vencera"!? Dedicated to everybody attending the Camp Nou show on Sunday - and mybe those, who want to celebrate the magical tunes "Spanish Eyes" or even "El Pueblo Vencera" live: So with a lot of people lamenting about the (non-)flexible...

Dedicated to everybody attending the Munich show on Wednesday: So with a lot of poeple lamenting about the (non-)flexible setlists in Europe at the moment - with one single night following the other - why not simply do something, when you are in the Front of Stage area, especially close to the...

@everybody, who's attended a VERTIGO-gig so far Now, this is a very delicate matter: U2 are for me the best live act in the world - I guess, many here will agree - but there is a strange idea coming to my mind regarding the shows of this tour. First of all, I want to say that I've never heard...

Yes, apart from the circulating rumours of U2 thinking about changes in the (until now brilliant) setlists for Europe, I have a dream: The band does not only think about to play more 90ies' stuff, but also a step back to seldom played tracks from THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE, especially the album's...
