Washington DC II Setlist Watch and Party, Part II

[Queen Bee]

Wow

 

[catlhere]

I just have a hard time with the intro - I'm basically conditioned to expect a red backdrop and a certain intro to the song. Still any Streets is a good Streets

Yah I agree. Rattle and Hum style with Larry counting time and then Edge coming in. Amazing!

 

[torontosep16]

coming in clear as a bell ("ring that bell edge")

 

[GibsonGirl]

Woah, people, calm down!

 

[catlhere]

LOOOVE
LOOOVE
LOOOVE
ONLY LOOOOOOOOOVE

 

[gvox]

Yeah here's my take

We're in a virtual concert room here

You turn to me inside the ellipse and start that shit about how Bono talks to much and goes on too much about Africa

Ima tell you to shut the fuck up and enjoy the show

And then smile and hug ya

 

[Chizip]

if Bono would cut down his preaching by a half, they could fit in another song. now who can honestly say theyd rather hear bono preach than another song?

 

[MTEdge]

What are the odds of Bono doing the "wow's" at the end of Streets?

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

why doesn't your music prof just stick to teaching music!

yes, god forbid if he has an opinion about u2.

 

[CTU2fan]

Yah I agree. Rattle and Hum style with Larry counting time and then Edge coming in. Amazing!

Absolutely right, and not even debatable IMO.

BTW, did I mention...this streamnig thing is frickin' awesome! Gorman you rule!

What are the odds of Bono doing the "wow's" at the end of Streets?

He just did it.

 

[catlhere]

What are the odds of Bono doing the "wow's" at the end of Streets?

About as good as his "Wow" when everyone takes their cel phones out before One.

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

aaaaaaaaaaaand there was the "wow"

 

[MTEdge]

What are the odds of Bono doing the "wow's" at the end of Streets?

He did it!

 

[mkdominatr]

Now comes the surprises after one....!

OFFICIAL SETLIST:

16. One (we know it's coming, so I'm posting...)

speech first

 

[Axver]

if Bono would cut down his preaching by a half, they could fit in another song. now who can honestly say theyd rather hear bono preach than another song?

Precisely. How about Please that gorman played for us earlier? Bono said two sentences at the start. It made his point far better than a two minute speech.

 

[Blue Room]

I cant believe I agree with Chizip on something.

 

[catlhere]

Do speeches count as snippets? If so Bono is Snippet crazy tonight!

Hmm... does speechifying save or hurt Bono's voice during a concert?

 

[pepokiss]

15 - Where The Streets Have No Name
15.5 - Wow
16 - One

 

[gvox]

Haha

Ask him when he visits your part of the world.

Pretty glass house over there dude...

 

[Chizip]

I cant believe I agree with Chizip on something.

 

[GibsonGirl]

Nothing quite compares to Twinings tea.

I wonder if Bono's One speech is going to be as long as last night's?

 

[angel_28]

Lets face it Bono loves the sound of his own voice....

 

[Lila64]

do they still scroll the names on the screen like they did on the first leg?

 

[Varitek]

Lets face it Bono loves the sound of his own voice....

He even wrote a song about it (sorta).

 

[wenda]

The Dangerous Cellphone snippet...

 

[CTU2fan]

Yeah, the pre-song soliloquies could go...but gimme a mid-song "Fuck the revolution" or "The God I believe in isn't short of cash mister" anytime
