Today, U2 performed the penultimate show of the 360° Tour (and last US show) in Pittsburgh. This show was not in the original itinerary for 2010, and was added only after the tour was rescheduled. It was announced on 12 October 2010, displacing Minneapolis as the last gig; it, however, also lost the "last gig" status on 31 January 2011 when Moncton was added to conclude the tour.

The setlist was not significantly different to that performed in Minneapolis three days ago, but it did feature two notable changes. One of these was not tremendously surprising; in the middle of the main set, Stay returned after a single show absence. The other change came right at the end of the show after Moment Of Surrender and was much more surprising. U2 seem to have embraced their newfound penchant for playing a song after MOS, tonight performing fan favourite Bad to close the show. This is just the third time it has been performed in 2011, following appearances on 3 April in La Plata and 24 June at the Glastonbury Festival. This is also just the second time Bad has been performed in North America on the entire 360° Tour, bookending the band's jaunts through the US; its other performance was at the tour's first US show back on 12 September 2009.

There was another little morsel for those fans paying close attention; Bono snippeted the title lyric of Two Hearts Beat As One in Vertigo. It has not appeared live in any form, not even snippet, since 27 December 1989. This was in fact its first appearance as a snippet; all 132 previous appearances were full performances.
