U2's Athens setlist, 03/09
Today, U2 performed in Athens for the first time ever. This was just their second Greek concert ever, following Thessaloniki on 26 September 1997.
Like in Moscow last week, the band played only one unreleased song, the instrumental opener Return Of The Stingray Guitar. All other 2010 shows have had at least two unreleased songs. Pride was performed in the spot where an unreleased song is usually played. This was just the third performance of Pride in 2010, after it was ditched from the setlist in 2009.
Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me made its seventh appearance on tour, being performed tonight after missing the last two concerts. Most notably, I Will Follow was performed for just the second time this tour, following its tour debut in Helsinki on 21 August 2010.
