Thanks everyone for all the links, videos and pictures. SO much fun! See you Thursday!!
Well that was nice. Thanks to those who posted links and such. My first ever setlist party and I was a wallflower lol
I did see it live during Zoo TV and there is no comparison. None.
errrr... where were you in 1992?
Zoo TV started with 5 new songs and it was great. I think it's odd to open a new tour with old songs.
Cons:
- not enough 90s stuff (Gone, LIB, The Fly, UTEOTW, MW)
I was there ,well 93 for European leg.
Saying that though Achtung Baby was a far superior album to NLOTH .
Now am off to do my art history project -
that's due in 4 and a half hours
Really? Why, speaking in musical terms? How dramatically has the arrangement changed? Because I fail to see how the arrangement is weaker, watered down or bastardized...I can understand vocal quality, emotion, those kind of quantifiable factors..but realistically - and maybe I need to go watch ZOO again lol - the arrangement is pretty much the same. The synths were there on ZOO, btw.
I still don't think that's any basis for anyone to demand that they stop playing one of most U2 fans' favorite U2 songs. Most of U2's versions of older songs don't compare to the original tour they were featured in. I'd go so far as to say all of them.
Yeah, but one thing to keep in mind is that when one of U2's better songs goes away for a tour, when it comes back it is generally fresher and, well, better when it returns....
Same setlist EXACTLY as rehearsal, right? 22 songs a little short, no? Anyone clock the exact run time of the show?

There are many songs I would rather have U2 play in it's place. However, I'm disapointed that they chickened out.
Great setlist, just looks like it could use a few more rockers in there!
I was there ,well 93 for European leg.
