This is a picture I took of Bono pissing on the notion of meaningful setlist rotations.

Great time tonight on the floor. It was easy to move from the catwalk to e stage and back up but the entire segment after Pride is a listless (ha) drag.
Half the crowd left after One, which suggests to me lots of people realize they can read setlists on the internet now. It's a pretty strong show hampered by a head scratching final run of songs.
Staring At The Sun sure was lovely though.
And they better not rotate out SATS because it sounds frickin gorgeous. Did not expect SATS-Pride to be my highlight of the show, but these things happen!
Strong agree. That pairing hit me much harder than I was expecting. It probably didn't hurt that they absolutely nailed Staring At The Sun, which I understand they've been fucking up a lot on this tour.
I’m not he biggest setlist complainer - but this practice of dropping songs for he second night and zero to little changing is pretty fucking lame.
...ummmmmI don’t blame him, he supposedly hates rehearsing.
No regrets for only doing LA1. Shame to see 2nd nights getting less love.
The audience rarely really got into the show.
