U2 Have Rescheduled Their Cancelled Tonight Show Visit For Next Week - Stereogum

By James Rettig / 6:44 pm


U2 are getting ready to embark on a worldwide tour in a few weeks, but they’re tying off some loose ends stateside first. Back in November, the band was scheduled to do a week-long residency on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon in support of Songs Of Innocence, but it was cancelled after Bono got into a bicycle accident that put him out of commission. He’s still recovering, but the band is ready to perform. The show has just announced that U2 has rescheduled and will appear on Fallon next Friday, 5/4. And it looks like they’re the only guests that are appearing that night, so they probably have something special cooked up.

Well 5/4 is Monday, Friday is 5/8.

Oh, you did it here too. You are so very clever.

Why do you bother?

 

[bobsaget77]

They should play Womanfish.

Man, they totally need to play 'Tonight' - I was so pumped when the Roots played it last time

They should tease us with SOE material:

Civilization
Red Flag Day
Flying Instruments

More realistically:

Every Breaking Wave (this time full band... )
Raised By Wolves/California/TMOJR

 

[thavidesco]

Single For No One and Playboy Mansion

 

[Gonna Run 2 U]

They should tease us with SOE material:

Civilization
Red Flag Day

Every Breaking Wave (this time full band... )
Raised By Wolves/California/TMOJR

Would really enjoy them playing one of the new songs but I highly doubt it

Stand Up Comedy - Grace

Appears to be one episode, but like the Conan special where they were the only guest and kinda ran the show.

 

[ozeeko]

SFS
EBW

[corianderstem]

Since they're the only guest, they're clearly going to take the whole hour and play all of Songs of Experience.

 

[Hawkmoon269]

I hope they play sleep like a baby tonight with toy instruments

Would really enjoy them playing one of the new songs but I highly doubt it

Really? Given how many new songs were played on the recent promo tour I'd say new material is certain.

 

[bobsaget77]

I'm gonna go out on a whim and say that they play Raised By Wolves paired with a new reworked version of SBS.
