Figured it'd be fun to lay down a setlist prediction. I'm sure I will be very wrong but will be interesting to see what (if anything) I get right. This isn't what I hope they'll do, but probably some biases are coming in.
Decided on a 25 track show just like JT30. Start off with a short set that doesn't fully utilize the screen yet (as some others have speculated/imagined). Minimal visuals or perhaps only a fraction of the screen, letting the hard rocking songs carry.
1. Atomic City
2. Vertigo
3. Desire
4. The Blackout
"When the lights go out" - all the lights go out. Then we slowly enter a set of 90s songs, primarily AB focused with a couple nods to Zooropa and Pop. Here's when the full extent of the sphere is unleashed.
5. Zoo Station
6. The Fly
7. Even Better Than the Real Thing
8. Mysterious Ways
9. So Cruel
10. Lemon
11. Mofo
12. Until the End of the World
13. Acrobat
After the sensory overload of all of that, we tone way down (perhaps even an intermission). Enter, the acoustic set. In my version, they play 4 songs, with the first two being rotated every night between a number of regular options (this is probably the least realistic aspect, if they have rotating songs it's probably from like a 4 song pool max). I figure more likely than not if they play something acoustic it will be something from SOS.
14. and 15. are 2 of the following
- I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For
- Every Breaking Wave
- Stay (Faraway, So Close)
- City of Blinding Lights
- Bad
- The Little Things that Give You Away
- Stuck in a Moment You Can’t Get Out Of
- Sometimes You Can’t Make it on Your Own
- All I Want is You
- If God Will Send His Angels
- Get Out of Your Own Way
- Sunday Bloody Sunday
- Your Song Saved My Life
Then these two round out the acoustic set, and are played every night
16. Walk On (Ukraine)
17. Who’s Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
Then back to full sound and screen
18. Beautiful Day
19. Ultraviolet (Light My Way)
20. Tryin to Throw Your Arms Around the World
21. Where the Streets Have No Name
22. Pride (In the Name of Love)
Encore:
23. With or Without You
24. Love is Blindness
25. One
