This is an unofficial film from the Vitalogy Tour of South East Asia, Australia and New Zealand. The comments have song links, the film of Eddie opening Night 1 in Auckland with Throw Your Arms Around Me is the first ever song played on NZ soil, check out that mosh pit, I am somewhere on that rail feeling like a sardine in heaven!
Yeah 98 was brutal aye! I was up front with my mate who was a tougher than me rugby lad, he lasted about 6 songs from memory! I hang in until the encore- pulled out, found a pick, danced in front of the boys like a lunatic and then enjoyed Betterman & YLB - my fav for the first time under the stars from mid pit, that was a moment!

Great to see the unofficial film not being taken down these days. Many years back is was Not For Trade. Couldn't share it publicly. Glad things have changed.
Guess not alot of Kiwis on the boards... but I'm looking forward to getting the hell outta my crazy country for a while and returning to a stadium I last visited for U2 in 2007.
I had tickets for that show but when it got rescheduled from 06 we couldn’t go as our son has been born, got to see them in 1993, 2010 & then Joshua Tree show (incredible!)
Cheers for support folks
I can imagine (see what I did there 🤣) things in the US right now are heating up, sure is an interesting week for the boys to hit the stage!
HARD TO IMAGINE in AUCKLAND!
Hearing U2 do One Tree Hill from the front rail was a moment I'll not forget.
I'm hoping we (Americans, and of course the world) have a reason to celebrate soon.
Are you sure it wasn't 06? I think it was postponed from St Patrick's Day to November and I flew straight home from seeing PJ in Australia (they skipped NZ) to catch the rescheduled U2.

I'd say they played One Tree Hill in Nov 06 and again on the Joshua Tree more recent show. I had tix for 06 on St Pats Day (how good would that have been!) but couldn't go the rescheduled show as son had just been born, but I did get to the two Brisbane PJ shows just before he was born, I remember Auckland was originally on that tour programme but Vector (now Spark) Arena wsn't ready in time

For those wondering about early entry with Ten Club Golden Circle tickets (1st shows in each city) here is confirmed info from Ten Club It's unclear if this is just Ten Club GC tix or all GC...
Thanks for emailing the Ten Club and congrats on your tickets. You will receive a 'Know Before You Go' emails approximately 24-48 hours before the show. This email will have all of this information for you, and will include the GC early entry information.
Those with Golden Circle tickets get early entry, and GA and Reserved are 30-45 minutes later, depending on the venue. Some of the shows have 2 openers, and generally the first opener should start around 6pm. Your emails will have the music schedule for you, as those details are still being fine tuned.
I still have my shirt from 1995 - black long sleeve with "Vitalogy" in yellow/gold on the front, and a small cherub on the back. Can't find any photos of it online, unfortunately.

Thanks for this info. I was thinking of messaging 10C asking the same.
It does seem from the response it's for all of Golden Circle which is contrary to what it said on the ticket selection page back in Feb (I got Aussie show tix).
It said "Golden Circle tickets purchased through Ten Club Presale will receive early entry into the venue. You will be contacted by Ticketmaster closer to the event with further details."
I've just emailed Ticketmaster, but not hopeful for a response.

Yeah that’s how it can be interpreted which would be disappointing as loyal Ten Club members, I also replied back to Ten Club so I’ll post here if I get a reply in time #HARDTOIMAGINEinAUCKLAND!

I think it will be ok. It doesn't make sense for all of GC to get early entry since it's a separate section anyway? Probably just poor wording.
Here's a list of all the songs (and number of times) played in the 5 Auckland shows. Formatting will probably make it look like ass but it should give us an idea of what's been played, so keen to hear songs not on this list.

#HARDTOIMAGINEinAUCKLAND!
A warm kia ora and welcome to our international friends arriving!
Now we are all obviously wanting to hear HARD TO IMAGINE :-) but there are plenty of songs on the menu that have never been played in NZ...
How about these two long hanging album closers? ( Year last played)
And a shortlist to complete Vitalogy, No Code & Yield!
From 2000 the lists get longer...
+ Most of Lost Dogs
+ All of Gigaton + Dark Matter
What's on your wishlist peeps?
Well Hard To Imagine is a pretty relevant phase this morning!
Here is a flashback to the lads on stage in Auckland 2009
One more sleep!
Hard To Imagine fits so well, and I really hope you get it.
