Rehearsals

[Tinwal]

Hello y'all.
Since the band are playing on Wednesday have they started rehearsing? Usually there is some report as to what they running through.

 

[Pop Artist]

Seeing as Bono was in NY yesterday they probably haven't yet (they did not get together at all during the break), but they probably will today...

 

[Mirrorballman83]

Bono was in NY, so nothing for now......and on wednesday there is the Grammy premiere.......so I think they'll go to monterrey the day after and start the rehearsal

 

[U2FanPeter]

The may do a runner at the end of the Grammy's. Just like the did at the R&RHOF redeye into Vancouver.

[U2Man]

Did I disappoint you?

 

[Axver]

At least this means we don't have to bother watching.

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

Good call. Maybe I'll go see Brokeback Mountain tomorrow instead.

Did I disappoint you?

Or do you feel the same?

You guys can't start singing "One" or any part of it without a 10 minute + speech.

 

[Lila64]

there's rehearsal pics in PLEBA, if you dare

Looks like they have finally rehearsed in Monterrey.

'It's Cold Outside...'

Band and crew have been rehearsing ahead of the opening show of Vertigo '06 in Mexico. It was pretty cold in the Estadio Tecnológico in Monterrey and everyone on stage was well wrapped up in woolies and leather jackets but the music soon warmed things up.

Adam took a tip from Edge and was wearing a very cool beanie. Great to hear the songs ringing around a stadium again after a a two month break.

The locals were out in force for the arrival of the band, which made for quite an exhilarating journey from airport to stadium in the company of local paparazzi. And hundreds of fans have been camped out in a kind of mini-festival around the stadium - about 600 are sleeping out, some in their own tents, in a bid to be first in to the venue and claim their chance of eye-contact with the band.

Rehearsals threw up some changes: new visuals in some places and, as our shot shows, Original of the Species looked particularly stunning. Looks like there's been some creative rethinking of 'Streets' too, but more of that after the first show.

'It's cold outside...' but as the song goes, ' It gets so warm in here.' Should be hot in Monterrey on Sunday night. We'll have more soon, including the set list and a report of the show. Keep tuning in.

I guess we can assume that OOTS has permanently replaced Miracle Drug.

No surprises. The typical Eurigo setlist was rehearsed.
More accurately:
Vertigo
I Will Follow
The Electric Co.
Elevation
New Year's Day
Beautiful Day
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
City of Blinding Lights
Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
Sunday Bloody Sunday
With or Without You
Miss Sarajevo
Bad
Bullet the Blue Sky

 

[nurse chrissi]

The Electric Co is back?

and Bad

 

[djerdap]

I just hope Zoo Station and The Fly are also back.
And... are we going to get that long rumored Pop encore?
Don't think so at this point.

 

[L03VIk]

I don't think we will see much changes the first few shows... They haven't got the chance to rehers too much yet...

 

[KUEFC09U2]

who knows whats going to happen in the encores, and by the sounds of it they are also working on something different for streets, so could be the end of pride-streets, who knows

I sure hope so

recently I had this idea of One -> Unchained Melody -> Streets

does that seem like it would work?

cuz if it does, I will call the guys and tell them to do it today

Reasons why it doesn't work:

1. One
2. Unchained Melody
