Berlin #4 Setlist Party

[kabigon]

I hope they play Beautiful Ghost

 

[Axver]

NYC was the beginning of the end. Boston at least had Crystal Ballroom, AIWIY, Volcano.

Two Hearts is cool, and I prefer it on the e-stage (better energy) but could you guys imagine a Magnificent/Two Hearts pairing? I like Desire and it's fun but come on

Man that NYC run was fucking weird. You get to the end of a leg with all kinds of shit sprinkled through the set and you play it as safe as possible over eight nights?

I'm baffled that Magnificent hasn't got a second run yet. Would work as a rotation with COBL at start of encore. And there's no reason why AIWIY and WOWY or Pride and NYD can't rotate.

 

[Mack_Again]

I hope they play Impossible Germany.

Hey NYC had the tour debuts of October and Two Hearts, Satellite of Love!, and Party Girl plus Volcano, AIWIY, Stuck (OK not so exciting but has it been played much this tour?), Lucifer, ... Not to mention Jimmy Fallon, the Roots and Lady Gaga. Oh, and the last play of the Troubles.

 

[Axver]

I hope they play Viva Davidoff in a medley with Theme From The Swan and 4th Of July.

*4th of July (Techno Remix) for the Intermission

 

[Mack_Again]

I actually like 4th of July.

this portion must be identical to like 30% of this tour's setlist

 

[Axver]

Fun fact: 4th of July has even been soundchecked. Adam has used it as a bass warmup.

 

[Edge_Orchestra]

It's time that they play the ORIGINAL 'Pete The Chop'... followed by 'Whatever Happened To Pete The Chop'.

Encores of Boomerang I and Boomerang II, also in order.


Since we're being silly about songs and such...

OOC has been done at 19/50 shows, so that run of six songs has been done at 38% of shows this tour.

 

[Hollow Island]

I'd love to see Edge, Larry, and Adam (and even Bono) play a few instrumentals instead of taking an encore break.

I think they sacrificed setlist variety for those "special guest" moments. But still, that only accounts for one night of Desire / Angel of Harlem and one performance of Ordinary Love.

exactly. the guest spots were cool but eh

and Magnificent's treatment is baffling, you figure they worked on it a lot, it was successful, why not try it again? I think Dallas said they were even looking to that last night in Stockholm, which didn't end up happening

 

[Mack_Again]

We definitely need Edge improvisation solo time for 10 minutes. It's not fair when EVH has his own solo time and Edge doesn't

 

[kabigon]

If we're listing obscure UF picks to be played live..

1. The Three Sunrises
2. Disappearing Act
3. Yoshino Blossom

 

[Tommy WM]

I reckon Bono would be shredding the Gretsch during Cedarwood Road if he could still play. Never forget the IRISH FALCON!

 

[Mack_Again]

see? Jimmy Fallon can make anything lame and mundane (don't hate on me)

Sort of Homecoming can defeat them all!!!!!

 

[Tommy WM]

Can't Bono somehow connect Electrical Storm to his youth and play that instead.

They also must have put plenty of effort into Zoo Station - it's not exactly what you think of when you think "easy one-off track". So to only do it once is weird. But they seem to like putting in all that effort for little airtime; just see Ocean/11OTT!

ah...i don't see that song works live, unless they go for the original version

ASOH is sort of like Acrobat for me.. it'd be cool to hear live but I'm not fully clamouring for it.

Maybe I need to hear some more ASOH live performances so I can be corrected

 

[Mack_Again]

Larry's snare sounds like Lars' snare used in St. Anger.

 

[Tommy WM]

Neither did they obviously after they played it a couple times in 2009.

 

[Hollow Island]

Did they really have to put any effort into 11 O'clock/The Ocean? They played thse so many times when they were starting out it's probably still in their muscle memory. It's really weird they dont' play Magnificient though - they did so much work on it it makes more sense to record and release it as a 7" than to only play it once.
