How about a set list covering all the albums, with some great snippets!

Opening set

City of Blinding Lights
11 O'Clock Tick Tock
Gloria / Van Morrison's Gloria
The Cry / The Electric Co.
An Cat Dubh
Into The Heart
The Ocean
Tomorrow
Where The Streets Have No Name

First encore

I Will Follow
Out of Control
In God's Country
Desire
Two Hearts Beat As One / Billie Jean
Angel of Harlem

Second encore

When Love Comes To Town
With or Without You / Shine Like Stars
The First Time
Please
Miss Sarajevo
Bad / Not Fade Away
Stay (Faraway, So Close)
Walk On / You'll Never Walk Alone
Kite

Third encore

The Fly
Zoo Station
Until The End of the World
Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
Window In The Skies
The Saints Are Coming
One Tree Hill
''40''


Can we change the title to be something like "Ideas for set lists"? I'm sure we've all written perfect set lists now about 26 times each.

Yeah I'd pay a ticket to this gig! Would be a great Farewell Tour setlist.

There's quite a few songs there others might miss; and I've intentionally left out for reasons of preference; but no doubt U2 and the fans themselves would see them as important to include. Several from The Joshua Tree, one or two from Achtung Baby, I really missed some good ones from Pop and Zooropa, and a lot from the early days (Boy - Unforgettable Fire).

However, the new tour is going to be interesting to see what compliments Gloria, Electric Co, An Cat Dubh, I Will Follow from the older tours, or even takes their place.... maybe something not played for a long time, for example Electric Co and some other Boy / October tracks hadn't been played for almost 17-20 years on the last tour. Maybe the remastered discs will prompt the band to play some older tunes, but I'm not holding out for any return to Pop any time soon.

However, the release of 18 Singles before the Brisbane '06 show didn't have them playing Sweetest Thing, either. The one song they didn't play on the last shows at all from that compilation. All 17 of the other songs listed - on official versions, not iTunes or whatever - they played.
