Vancouver #1 setlist party (part 2)

[Vlaco]

Lots of flubbed lyrics and bridges. 1024587340 snippets. Bono started preaching again.

Thanks! Very accurate summary I guess....

Bad isn't a staple, it's just old. And it's still great.

They haven't played Bad regularly since Elevation, and hardly at all on 360. It's a rarity at this point.

Just heard BB King died. Don't think u2 were aware of this. Maybe a tribute to him tomorrow night.

True, shouldn't have had Bad on that list. The rest however...

 

[Yahweh]

Apart from Streets, does anyone really care for their staple songs anymore? Pride, WOWY, BD, Bad, COBL, ISHF, One and MW just seem a bit meh to me these days.

If it wasn't for those staple songs U2 would have retired 15 years ago.

Edge's pretty nasty fall:

One day I really want to get my hands on one of these

I have one from 360's Toronto stop, one of the last shows of the tour. A roadie saw me engrossed in Moment of Surrender and walked up to me and handed it to me. It was such a thrilling little moment.

I just turned 69, Yahweh, and I'm hoping they come back to the U.S. in 2016 so I can go to a show - I'll be in Ireland during all of their Chicago shows. Talk about irony!

Yes, R.I.P., B. B. King, and thanks for the music.

 

[Yahweh]

Im actually only 37 I am just quoting Rattle and Hum the movie from memory....not exacty quote but still 30 years have went by fast.

 

[Eliv8]

Is it over? What time did it end? Just checking in.

Go back to bed poser ;-)
Just kidding Chris, miss me?

 

[Sicy]

Sicilicious, you're late.

Well I was out drinking

 

[Iskra]

Edge fell off the stage. Anyone hear if he's ok? Bono did it on the first night of Elevation in Miami so maybe it's a good sign ; )

Looks like a pretty balanced set, IMO. Curious about tonight, guess MD will finally be played, Bono has recently talked about it in an interview. Not surprised about One being left out after all the rehearsal reports, but still a bit sad about it, guess Bono's injury and inability to play guitar changed the program for the show a bit. I hope all the SOI songs will make their debut once the show moves on. And I'm sure most people in the audience are happy to hear some U2 classics.

Everyone who's being overly negative sitting comfortable behind their computer keyboards or phones should just go out and get a life. Stop spoiling the fun and excitement for others. I'm personally excited about the way the tour will evolve. And cannot wait to see videos of the visuals.

BB King has passed. Expect some Lovetown medley or whatnot.

1st YouTube video of the tour? Iris & Cedarwood Road.

I caught the trio of songs off of the iHeart radio broadcast & caught SBS/RBW/UTEOTW on Sil McGee or whatever. LOL. Missed quite a bit, but got Derek's link in time for Pride onward. The opening sounds amazing & Iris sounds much better than I anticipated. I didn't think they'd do that one right off the bat. I'm dying to hear Bullet The Blue Sky's new incarnation & rant. The encore seems off. I get ending it with I Still Haven't Found, but it seems so odd. However, I'm still optimistic about night 2 and I can't wait to see how this tour plays out, especially for the multiple night runs. Edit: Anyone have a quick list of what didn't get played tonight? I'm guessing that something like Sweetest Thing will be a one night per city tune.

Another video up of Bono's speech in Pride. I guess we'll have to be patient to get the really awesome stuff.

I wonder what songs they're holding off on until next year's proposed stadium tour. They need to keep some unplayed to sell tix.

Anyone else think the show should open with the band in the screen doing Invisible and Even Better? I like Miracle as an opener but that was such a brilliant part of the show.. Regardless, there def. needs to be a little setlist tweaking in the second half, The Troubles is brilliant but too mellow for it's spot and too soon after EBW and before With Or Without You. 3 of the last 5 songs of the main set are ballads..that needs to change. Speaking of EBW, that needs to be moved to somewhere else in the set where Bono has had a chance to rest his voice beforehand, be it an encore or closing the show. He was straining during sweetest thing and it hurt his performance of EBW.
