Istanbul Setlist party II

[Galeongirl]

They couldn't open the encore with WOWY could they?

No, WOWY is clearly labelled as song 22. That leaves a gap of one song which happens to be the encore opener...

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

Clearly this happened -

The time vortex opened by the Claw transported all in to a reality where time passes much slower. While there they played Acrobat, Mercy, Drowning Man, HMTMKMKM, UV, Lady With the Spinning Head, Mofo, Gone and Last Night on Earth. Upon returning from said time vortex all who witnessed it had their memories wiped and thus it looks like a regular encore.

It is the only explanation.

Y'know, I'd almost believe that is possible. Seeing as how B constantly calls the Claw a spaceship and we all KNOW that Edge is a time-traveling alien...

It was Batman according to this.

KissthefutureU2 said no one knows as a response to my tweet.

How...HOW CAN NO ONE KNOW? U2gigs knows EVERYTHING.

They couldn't open the encore with WOWY could they?

I'm thinking at this point they dropped a song and did just this.

 

[Lila64]

Someone ask on Twitter:

Does the mystery song rhyme with Blercy?

 

[corianderstem]

I'm actually sorry to finally have an answer.

Can't be true. It has MLK in it.

 

[nirniva]

Can't be true. It has MLK in it.

 

[CTU2fan]

Can't be true. It has MLK in it.

And no One. No One would be bigger news than Mercy.

 

[lauramullen]

Ok, now they changed it. They took HMTMKMKM out.

They have Streets into WOWY, and they have MLK. They're clueless.

that there is gold

 

[Galeongirl]

They clearly retracted their MLK statement. U2gigs did, U2log did, Atu2 did. Thus I think it's safe to assume that MLK was NOT played.

which means that these setlists are just taken from the guess of twitter and they're just as confused as we are.

Oh btw, I'm going to take a shower and wash my hair. Back in about 10 minutes, hope to have things cleared up again then.

[ClaytonsKitten]

Exactly. The true setlist would have MOTD in it.

Alas, I gotta get going. Plans to meet the hubby and get Taco Bell...

Hopefully I'll come back later and you'll have an answer!

Thanks for a great setlist everyone! ESPECIALLY OPEN-SHIRT!ADAM FROM ATHENS!

 

[nicv]

Can't be true. It has MLK in it.

yeah, this does not seem right.

That's jacked up.

 

[nirniva]

They have Streets into WOWY.

But didn't that one guy describe it as being "'90s-ish?" WOWY doesn't sound particularly '90s-ish, and Bono doesn't dance around on the mike, and I don't think there are any smoke effects...

well that obviously ain't right

 

[lauramullen]

They had to of played something. Twitter was taking forever to update.

You forgot God Part II... for some reason I did not have my memory wiped... because of my level of insanity

 

[nirniva]

Well, folks, I think we've learned a lesson: Never, NEVER, take 1000Mikes for granted.

 

[one4u2]

Obviously

 

[Lila64]

Thanks for the setlist & party peeps!



And as for smoke - there's been a guy on stage with the smoke thing blowing during the first song of the encore - you can see it/him in the videos from previous shows.

I'll be lurking for a bit

 

[corianderstem]

This is cracking me up.

 

[nirniva]

They had to of played something. Twitter was taking forever to update.

Then wouldn't someone have posted "Huh, this is weird...I don't recognize this song!" or something?

 

[ramblin rose]

Exactly, that sight doesn't have a clue.
