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

[ramblin rose]

Runs to Audio/Video forum to see who already started a thread asking for a recording of the show.........

 

[nurse chrissi]

Wow, so do you think U2 played Crumbs partially because of that??

People, get your Dirty Day and Mofo banners ready

i think they have been working on it but I really think they are taking fan requests into consideration this leg

 

[JMScoopy]

I wonder if Bono played guitar during crumbs

In a way thats immensly sweet, but in another way thats more disturbing.

If they come to Australia I will encourage some female friends to hold a sign stating "I underwent gender alteration surgery to dance with you".

It'll be a moment.

shades of the crying game

I think I just peed in my pants a little

Me too.

well there are confirmed reports of Mofo being soundchecked and didn't someone say Bono told them they're working on Dirty Day??

this might be the best tour ever.

If I lose 20 pounds to dance with Bono, will that be impressive enough?

Jag is away this weekend isnt he?

Partially? Entirely

Partially? Entirely

hope for Dirty Day yet

I think asking how much influence Willie Williams had on the setlist is very reasonable. We've had The First Time, Walk On, and Crumbs From Your Table spontaneously emerge in sets, and two of those have never been played before. Clearly *something* has changed since the second leg ended, and WW is a worthy target to ask about.

Willie missed the end of the European leg too and you didn't see variation then.

If it was full band, they had to have rehearsed it at some point. I agree with you that it was because of the fans, but why were they holding out for a fan's request in the first place?

I liked the picture of the 4 people the other day on the rail each with a letter to spell out M O F O

good point he missed the last 9 shows

 

[timothius]

Partially? Entirely

The only way DD could be anymore of a reality at this point is if they played it.

I think it is harder to mix it up in larger venues. Did anyone check out Edge's interview on U2.com. He says so in so many words, like it is easier to try things in arenas (America) moreso than stadiums (the rest of the world)

 

[Lila64]

can someone get out a SALOME sign? LOL

 

[nurse chrissi]

did anyone give the petition to any of the band members in Chicago?

 

[AtomicBono]

maybe they want to know there is serious demand for the song...

just curious, does U2 realize that out of their entire fan community Acrobat is probably the song people want them to play the most?

 

[Queen Bee]

Stories for Boys and eep better make a DD banner this weekend

They weren't they probably rehearsed it 40 odd times between Mexico/Toronto etc and found it incredibly easy to just pull it out.

Perhaps, and they are waiting to play it at their last gig ever!!

Please, please, please make Dirty Day banners!




I will pee my pants.

 

[ramblin rose]

I'm almost afraid to think that it can't get any better than these 1st seven shows.

 

[Axver]

New thread coming up!

 

[mobvok]

Yeah, but he announced his exit *during* the leg, right? It isn't hard for me to imagine that U2 decided to keep going with their 2nd leg strategy to its conclusion.

But regardless of that, no matter which way you cut it, this is an exciting time to be in a setlist thread!

I read it!

In case someone missed my post, I want a SALOME sign

 

[Queen Bee]

I don't think so

Stories for Boys has a DD wristband though

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

Stories for Boys and eep better make a DD banner this weekend

I love them both for this.
