    Mine (at this moment) would be:

    Where the streets have no name
    I will follow
    I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
    Beautiful day
    Stuck in a moment you can’t get out of
    Every breaking wave
    The unforgettable fire
    Gloria
    New Year’s Day
    City of blinding lights
    Vertigo
    Pride (In the name of love)
    Bullet the blue sky
    Running to stand still
    Sunday bloody Sunday
    Gone
    Zoo Station
    The fly
    Even better than the real thing
    Mysterious ways
    Until the end of the world
    One
    Stay (far away, so close !)
    Encore 1
    Angel of Harlem
    Bad
    With or without you
    Encore 2
    Moment of surender
    Out of control
    “40”
    You can find maybe a thousand of examples of that in our legendary Your Perfect Setlist thread
  4. I did 4 legendary i+e setlists that would make every show I've been to pointless as the four covered so much.

    Unfortunately they would only be performed by a parallel earth U2. Earth #53 perhaps.
  5. Wow.

  10. U2 have now played 45 songs on the first leg of the Innocence + Experience Tour; 43 original songs plus Happy Birthday and Stand By Me. In this period they also did two more original songs at their Roxy sideshow. The leg total of 43 is the most original songs U2 have ever played on any individual leg of a tour, and the figure of 45 songs overall is also close to a record. The third leg of Vertigo had more songs overall, 48, but six were covers, hence it featured only 42 original songs compared to this leg's 43. The second leg of Popmart featured 43 songs overall, of which 27 were originals and 16 covers; the third leg of ZooTV featured 42 songs, of which 28 were originals and 14 covers. In the eighties U2 only once played more than forty songs across an entire tour, never mind an individual leg: they did 44 on the Joshua Tree Tour, of which 29 were originals and 15 covers (our stats on that page show 14 covers because Helter Skelter is counted with Rattle And Hum).

    Statistically speaking this leg is awesome setlist-wise, relatively in the U2 universe of course.
  11. They had to play two different setlists in each location ,it seems to me.
    They change setlists but only for a couple of songs.
    The promise is more rock for the new album SOE and more changes for each concert (twoo min. in each city) in the European leg. The first cause the second must be next summer in stadiums. That what i think and i hope they will produce what i hope
  12. Do we know that U2 are going to tour in stadiums at all or are we just assuming this?
