Thanks for the link! Couple thoughts:

1. Why did they start in the daytime?
2. The first bass they show Adam with, is that a Gibson or Epiphone? Reminds me of John Lennon's Epiphone when he had it sanded down.

Moment Of Surrender

Moment of Surrender wasn't played. It was on the set list but wasn't played.

I'm hoping they break out The Fly soon.

It started at about 8:45 pm, but I think it stays light later in that part of the world. no clue on the bass.

I was wondering that, thought I heard something about it last night, but wasn't sure. Maybe they had a curfew and couldn't fit it in at the end. Probably Bono blabbing too much during the show. I'll edit.

for me, they can play the Fly instead of Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, etc. I like that song, it's ok, but I would rather hear The Fly. That position in the setlist is the Achtung Baby wildcard slot for this tour. Earlier in 360 tour it was UltraViolet and that was awesome too.

During the Vertigo Tour, I saw them do Zoo Station followed by The Fly and Mysterious Ways in that part of the show, like a ZooTV mini-set - that was awesome.

I did. it was good. is it lighter in this part of the world later? I don't know. I thought it was the same, save for the arctic at certain parts of the year.

Time for them to break out "The Fly" after playing that about 5 times for the documentary.

I'll be in Seattle this weekend after skipping the Canadian shows.

Have caught Denver and Salt Lake so far this leg and they were both sensational. It seems like they've settled on this setlist, and it'll probably vary night to night very little for the rest of the tour. But as someone who saw this tour develop from the beginning, from Dublin through the 09 US shows, to the 2010 Europe and Australia run, I can honestly say this is the best set and this show has the best flow. We're in for a treat this summer in the US.

As for Seattle, I'm hoping that a certain local boy or two or from a band we all love shows up. I can only imagine what a duet on Sunday Bloody Sunday or Walk On would sound like...

I can see that happening. They're good friends with each other.

This is definitely awesome.

I was wrong it is Qwest. Never seen a show there either. Lenny is opening up last time i saw him was at the Horde festival in 96 at portland meadows with dave mathews,and blues traveler. At the show Lenny got shocked from his amp and than had gliches had a marriage propsal on stage than he threw me his guitar pic. I think that is what started my obsession on trying to get a pic from every show i go to. Should be intersting show.

restlesssoul

evenflowman, i am coming down for the show. i too, would like to know what time Lenny or U2 are scheduled to hit the stage, as I NEED to see my canucks whip some more Boston ass and then go to the game.


p.s. - Im not taking any chances at the border, of course, but I would love to spark up some greenery at U2 in seattle. anyone out there care to bring a j, that ol restlesssoul can purchase? msg me if yes. pretty please?

Well - U2360° FANCAM is back!

Not only do we have sensational 360° images from the shows in Denver and Salt Lake City but U2360° FANCAM is going to be covering the rest of the tour as well.

And after each show we'll be posting the huge images from the 360° gigapixel camera on U2.com - so you'll be able to explore every corner of the venue, then zoom in and tag yourself or your friends.

And share the image with others on Facebook or Twitter or email it to friends.

Were you at the shows in Denver or Salt Lake City ?

Know someone else who was?

Does anyone know a good place to follow the setlist of a U2 show? I have friends going Saturday and would like to follow along with them. I know I can probably just check the previous show's setlist, but I'm a nerd and not doing anything Sat. night (see: nerd reference) and thought it might be fun to follow along.

U2.com forum with a thread that will follow along, but I think it is for paid members. That is usually where I follow along.

I am not a member of it, but I think Interference also has threads to follow along:
