It'll be 7-8 new songs
Beautiful Day
Vertigo
Streets
Until the End of the World
maybe Love and Peace, COBL, Original/Sometimes
all of the songs that will never die
 
Well, I'd say that they have mined Boy and Achtung Baby for a lot of the non-new album material this tour (along with the classic JT stuff, which always appears). So I'm wondering where you think they will turn to for the next tour?

October?
War?
Unforgettable Fire?
Non-Classic Joshua Tree?
Rattle and Hum?
Zooropa?
Pop?

It'd be cool to hear how the supposed re-worked Pop tunes get treated...and perhaps more UF, RH and JT rareities.

See my first post for a setlist based on this wish.
 
1. (New Song)
2. (New Song)
3. Vertigo
4. I Will Follow
5. Elevation
6. (New Song)
7. Until The End Of The World
8. New Year's Day
9. City Of Blinding Lights
10. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
11. (New Song)
12. (New Song)
13. Sunday Bloody Sunday
14. Bullet The Blue Sky
15. (New Song) or Please
16. Where The Streets Have No Name
17. Pride (In The Name Of Love)

18. MOFO
19. Discotheque
20. With Or Without You

21. (New Song)
22. One
23. Yahweh
24. (New Song)

There will be a solid closer this time around

I sure hoppe they mix it up more than this (in terms of set list structure)...its virtually identical to Vertigo Tour. And I think they will.
 
Alright, filled in the question marks on my setlist:

1. Where The Streets Have No Name
2. Until The End Of The World
3. Seconds
4. New Song
5. New Song
6. New Song
7. I Will Follow or Out Of Control
8. 11 0' Clock Tick Tock
7. A Sort Of Homecoming
8. I Fall Down
9. New Song
10. New Song
11. Desire
12. Stay (Faraway, So Close)
13. New Song

14. Even Better Than The Real Thing
15. Beautiful Day
16. The Unforgettable Fire
17. Desire (Full Band)
18. All I Want Is You

19. Discotheque
20. Lemon or Gone
21. Staring At The Sun
22. Vertigo (I guess you need something from Da Bomb......I'm pretty much over it though)
23. Bad
24. Walk On


Boy: 1 Track (Fair since there was the 'Boy' set at the start of the Vertigo tour)
October: 1 Track (Because anymore would have the casual attendee going "wuh?")
War: 1 Track (Because '40', 'SBS' and 'NYD' have been played to death)
The Unforgettable Fire: 3 Tracks (Because two of these haven't been played lately and 'Bad' is their best live track)
The Joshua Tree: 1 Track (Heard it all to death, but you can't have a U2 show without "Streets")
Rattle and Hum: 2 Tracks (Because "Desire" has had plenty of rest and because "All I Want Is You" has been m.i.a. in North America)
Achtung Baby: 2 Tracks ("EBTTRT" has had endless rest and "UTEOTW" still is killer)
Zooropa: 2 Tracks ("Stay" is gorgeous and underused, "Lemon" would knock people's socks off)
Pop: 2 or 3 Tracks (The two most well known tracks along with a third one that rocks live........barely touched upon in the last tour)
All That You Can't Leave Behind: 2 Tracks (Because these two songs still are amazing)
How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb: 1 (Because we're all sick of it by now)
New Album: ?
Nonalbum: 1 Track ("Tick Tock" is one of their greatest live tracks........a shame they don't pull it out much)
