Minneapolis Setlist Watch and Party - DO NOT POST U2.COM SETLIST!

[Axver]

Welcome one and all to the first single-night-stop setlist party! Get out the Tim Tams and Squiggles, crack open an L&P, and get with the party!

As always, please, if U2.com post the set before the show is over, don't tell us. The point of the party is to watch the set unfold in real time.

DO WE HAVE A SOURCE?

And will U2 keep going with this variety? I'm sure we all hope so!

PS Minneapolis is in CENTRAL US TIME, folks! And no, gorman unfortunately isn't there tonight. Who here supports the establishment of the Send Gorman To More Shows Fund?

 

[Queen Bee]

We have a source!

Schmeg will be texting me setlist updates tonight

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

[Chizip]

I predict 4TH OF JULY!

 

[Chizip]

I predict 4TH OF JULY!

i doubt theyll play that one Axver

 

[Utoo]

I've got friends over tonight, so I can't make it. Have fun, everyone!

 

[Axver]

i doubt theyll play that one Axver

I bet you would've said that five nights ago to The First Time.

 

[mobvok]

I predict 4TH OF JULY!

...Which will play before the inevitable TUF encore, featuring Wire/Bad/MLK?

Discotheque again! The more shows Discotheque appears at the more likely it is that some taper will post it in its entirety. And let's hope they do something with the Daddy's Gonna Pay snippet from The Fly.

 

[DublinGuy]

Cool, have there been any rumours of songs that have been rehearsed earlier in the day does anyone know? Mofo would be incredible

 

[Super_Fan]

I hope that no one backs into a pole after the show in back of First Avenue like I did in August of 2004 for Metallica book signing.

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

MLK

They should replace pride with mlk.

 

[Axver]

I've got friends over tonight, so I can't make it. Have fun, everyone!

Setlists > Friends

Get your priorities right!

That would have made for an interesting time for those around you.

 

[U2dork]

Awwwwww yeeeeah.
Setlist Par-tay.

 

[uwwedoogie]

THATS IT IM STAYING UP FOR IT

 

[DublinGuy]

U2DORK- are you an REM fan out of interest?

Yay!

Say hi to Schmeg for me

 

[Axver]

That encore would be an Axvergasm.

 

[{paintedroses}]

uwwe - thats the spirit

hello everyone

 

[Dragonfave]

Any news about the rehearsal over there??

 

[Queen Bee]

That encore would be an Axvergasm.

Did you tell everyone around you or keep it to yourself so you could watch their reaction?

(the setlist info, not the nearly crapping part )

 

[MCF74]

I would be happy with Wire/Bad/MLK. But I'd also be happy with a random War track like "Like a Song..." or "Drowning Man". I have a feeling that won't be happening, though.

 

[AtomicBono]

I wish I was in Minneapolis right now...! I've got relatives there, man.

I'm curious to see how, if at all, U2 will vary Minneapolis since it's a one night show... I'd LOVE to see more variety in the one night shows since I'll be going to Cleveland.

 

[kellyahern]

Oh geez, CNN is showing that stupid "guy in a wind tunnel" video again . They drag that out for every hurricane I think.

Thought I'd throw it a bit of off topicness .

I think I'd die of drooling joy if they played Drowning Man.

 

[U2dork]

U2DORK- are you an REM fan out of interest?

I'm one of those people who likes REM in the sense that I go to all of the shows, I have a bunch of albums, I get a tad excited when Michael Stipe shows up at an event I'm at, etc... but I'm not the type of fan that knows the name of every song (or even most of the songs, for that matter). The only band I can do that for is U2.
I do have a friend that's an REM-aphile and constantly recites REM facts and figures to me. I suppose it's payback for all of the random U2 trivia I spout out at him.
