    Exactly! If you think they will do otherwise they wouldn’t be U2.

    I would like to see them get rid of all of the political bullshit they do and concentrate to the music. SoE is still my favourite album but I'm afraid they will alienate me from the tunes if they put too much politics in the songs. This is just a dream though they will never stop doing this.
    They've been political since 1983.... that is what a huge chunk of the career has been part of??
  3. Summer of Love and footage of Syria will be in there to replace Miss Sarajevo
    I hope Patti Smith isn't involved this time

    And replace "October" remember the screen in 2015. So sure they will play Summer of Love.
  5. They've already done the visuals so it's a no brainer
  6. Same with GOOYOW , no doubt a bit of Trump footage etc and into that one they go.
    This will not be a political lite tour unfortunately
  7. U2 have always been political. Always will be. That’s part of their make up
  8. Agree but they can be varying levels of political in a show ranging from 6 to 10
    This tour shaping to be a 10
  9. I wish someone would switch Bono's mic off inbetween songs. Instead of a 5 minute speech about how War is Bad (CLANG!) we could get a song. I know War, Racism, and being a twat are bad already!
  10. Totally agree Mark but we have to accept Bono for what he is

    Hawkmoon 269 would be very Nice. Drop Vertigo and Out of Control and add Gone and A Day without me.
  12. U2 dropping Vertigo? It's only missed 10 shows since 2004.
