You've gotta open with a song people know.

You can't prove anything to someone who cannot comprehend logic.

 

[nirniva]

You know what else could work?

Opening the set with Glastonbury!

Picture it!

No, odds are it's either going to be EBTTRT or Streets. I can certainly see it showing up later in the setlist, though.

Hell, i appear in the 3D movie

it was amazing

Nice.

[coolian2]

surprisingly zoo tv

 

[kingofsorrow]

that means we're getting an all AB set. complete with AB outtakes performed live for the first time.

 

[prbiker15]

This was from today/last night - just fucking epic in my opinion. If you can't see it, don't know what happened but your loss :

Fixed that for you.

That, right there, is epic. Zoo Tv, Pt. II, indeed...tomorrow is going to be awesome.

Spoiler

What are the odds that Macphisto returns for the encore? Because that would pretty much be the best thing ever.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Oh yeaaah, baby ...

I'm a little too excited for this.

 

[coolian2]

open with streets and a few old songs, hit achtung baby and the 90s in a big way, close with bad/40 - yep, i'm not embarrassed.

Macphisto with a haircut and swinging on the wheelmic (if they brought it). EPIC. And maybe the famous "telephone call"? Ok, going too far with this wish list.

 

[nirniva]

Even though I went on record as guessing that either EBTTRT or Streets will be the first song, I think we all know what should be the opener:
YouTube - ‪U2 - HD Intro-Zoo Station (ZooTv)‬‏
Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy over the PA, old propaganda films and TV shows on the screens...cue that iconic opening riff, Bono silhouetted against the static, and Worthy Farm going ballistic.

When Bono's silhouetted against the screen and does the crazy dance moves, that is just epic. I really doubt they'll open with this at Glastonbury, obviously (maybe EBTTRT instead) but it would be be another great salute to ZooTV. Really think there will be an Achtung Baby overload tomorrow!

 

[TheEdge25]

I hope they bring the wheel mic and do a full on ZooTV style encore.

Open the set with this:

EBTTRT
The Fly
Mysterious Ways
Until The End of the World

Then play whatever the hell else they want.
Then close the main set with Bad.

Then have the encore be just like the ZooTV encores, but include the amazing wheelmic:

Desire (Full band, balls to the wall rocker, none of this acoustic shit)
Ultraviolet (Light My Way)
With or Without You/Shine Like Stars
Love is Blindness

Close with "40" if they are able to.


The people at Glasto will be eating out of their hands.

 

[TheEdge25]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

 

[redhill]

 

[hedge]

1. I Will Follow

It didn't achieve quite that effect on me but the hairs on my arm stood on end.

[super fly guy]

[hedge]

700 times??!! Um im edging towards bullshit also.

got to be 70 hasn't it?

or 7?

no one is crazy enough to have seen them more than 70 times.

are they?

I predict that Bono and Edge will join BB King's band for When love comes to town, not the other way around. Thus wasting a perfectly good opportunity, and sadly probably their last (BB is in his mid 80s) to reunite the original musicians on the song. I hope I'm wrong, but this would sadly be VERY U2 for them to do this.
