Did he sneak a line of Relax into Crazy’s intro or was I hearing things?
16th is Crazy Tonight.
She Loves You snippet at the end of Vertigo.
@Galeongirl *checks wallet* … reckon $25.20 is enough?
15th is Vertigo.
@ZooPony Here’s hoping! This is, I think, only the 3rd song on tour he hasn’t heard, after YBR and She’s The One.
@atu2comSherry Camera tech improvements mean next year you may be able to set a new higher standard! Next tour could be amazing…
14th is City Of Blinding Lights.
@U2log Blasted tall people, eh? Maybe I should coax one of my tall friends into doing some recording in Melbourne…
13th is Miss Sarajevo.
@atu2comSherry I just hope they have Matt’s good camera and stable hands! ;) (I know I don’t!)
Back down to earth now, folks. 12th is just In A Little While.
Well, I reckon this sounds pretty sweet. Wish Matt was in Coimbra to record this. :(
@alljokesmustgo I can’t believe you’re right and that they’re actually doing something TOTALLY new! Wow, nice.
This is that Spiderman musical song.
So eleventh is LIVE DEBUT of BOY FALLS FROM THE SKY.
Woah, in honour of the welcome Coimbra has given U2, they’re playing a song they’ve never done before!
Now crowd’s chanting Pride’s “oh oh oh oh” bit.
Pride has only been done in this setlist spot before in Moscow, Athens, & Istanbul. Guess they aren’t doing the SBS/Pride swap for night 2.
Oh hello, tenth is Pride!
@U2log I Still Haven’t Found The Best Night I’m Looking For.
@Galeongirl Don’t really think it was a snip, wasn’t the melody of Singing In The Rain, nor is “won’t you come back again?” a lyric in it.
Shorter speech than last night. Ninth is I Still Haven’t Found.
It’s Bono speech time now…
@SeattleB It’s been far too long since he’s snippeted that!
Woah, Bono doesn’t bring UTEOTW to a halt before the “drowning my sorrows” verse. Thank god.
@SeattleB Bad, AOH or Desire, UV, Pride in SBS’s spot. And Cartoon World instead of Walk On. ;)
Eighth is Until The End Of The World.
Goddamnit, I was briefly not paying attention - was that another rain-themed snip in Elevation, or just improv lyrics?
Seventh is Elevation.
Can’t Stand The Rain snippet in MW.
Sixth is Mysterious Ways.
Fifth song is Magnificent. No “where are we going?” tonight.
@U2log Haha, if it were, I can’t wait for the next song, Magnifitastic.
Bono’s changing up the lyrics to Boots’ verses tonight…
Live feed drops out, returns, just in time for fourth, Get On Your Boots.
@SeattleB Hehe, or how about NYD / October (snippet)? At this stage, it’d be better than nothing…
@wxander Even spottier than yesterday! Sounds like the communication network is really overloaded…
Third is New Year’s Day, back after a night off yesterday.
Snippet of The Beatles’ Rain at the end of BDay. There we go, the Snippeting In The Rain begins!
@SeattleB “NYD into October”, you say? Now that’d be funny. ;)
Here is our mainpage article where I will be posting the full set live: http://u2.gs/gt
Second song is Beautiful Day. Crowd is again in very good voice.
Live stream today courtesy of @U2tour is here: http://u2.gs/f9
Opener is, naturally, Stingray Guitar.
Space Oddity now playing in Coimbra… almost showtime!
@xalira Hah, awesome! I’ve been to all 6 of their Australian shows; best gig I’ve ever seen was their Melbourne gig earlier this year.
@SeattleB You may want to reconsider that opinion; have you heard October into Tomorrow from the War Tour, 1st leg?
@SeattleB I’m sure there’s some truth if there’s money behind it. ;) God I’d love a song from October, even just the title track before NYD.
It was raining in Coimbra earlier… wonder if we’ll get some Snippeting In The Rain and other torrential classics tonight!
U2 should begin in about 35-40 minutes. Soundcheck was Pride, Desire, Bad, but may have been just by the crew, not U2.
Hi folks, Ax here for Coimbra 2. Like yesterday, neither of us are there, but let’s not let that stop us from doing gig coverage!
@xalira Top 5 bands? Hmm… Porcupine Tree, Crowded House, Agalloch, Pure Reason Revolution, The Chills.
@u2wanderer Bono’s afraid I’d make him snippet 50 obscure Kiwi bands in Bad.
Looking forward to seeing what the band do for Coimbra 2. For now, this is Ax, signing off. See you folks tomorrow!
@ZooPony Hahah, good call!
Sorry, we won’t have videos today (or tomorrow), since Matt isn’t in Coimbra. But don’t despair: he will be in Rome! :)
Full live set and info for Coimbra 1 here: http://u2.gs/gs
Thanks very much to @U2tour for the live feed today!
That’s the end of the gig today, folks.
@ZooPony I wish Bono would at least try to sing it properly rather than speaking the verses.
@Drea104 I have to get in at least one per show. ;)
A time traveller from 1983 would be so confused by how little this sounds like a moment of Surrender.
24th and presumably last is Moment Of Surrender.
@ZooPony No kidding. Remember how great it sounded in 1987-89? I miss that.
@ClaytonsKitten Here’s hoping the surprise of HMTM two nights in a row happens in Melbourne. ;)
23rd is With Or Without You.
@ClaytonsKitten I’d say UV is pretty much guaranteed tomorrow now!
22nd is… Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me!
2nd encore break… HMTM or UV? My bet’s on HMTM, since UV was done at the last gig.
@AnaVitti I think you’ve found a solution! And bribe Edge with a brand new beanie…
Amazing Grace snip leads into 21st song, Streets.
@AnaVitti I hate to think how huge that bribe would have to be…!
20th song, first of encore, is One.
Here’s Desmond Tutu’s speech…
There’s the You’ll Never Walk Alone snip, right on cue.
@AnaVitti If they ever play Wild Irish Rose or bring back Zooropa or Dirty Day… that’d be perfect. Perfect.
@U2log @U2wanderer How about a filter so that only OUR tweets and other approved accounts get through!
@AnaVitti Yes! But only fans who own October, to get rid of the people who own just a Best Of and request hits we’ve heard heaps before. ;)
18th is MLK; 19th is Walk On.
@AnaVitti As for early songs, like all your suggestions, would add Electric Co, The Fool, Brick, and Another Time Another Place.
@AnaVitti How about a 2nd gig, of 1984-89 songs? I want to hear One Tree Hill/Exit/Mothers close a set. It’d rule.
When I turned on my radio the other night, I heard Gloria on a hyper-commercial station. As if it was an obscurity in the ’05 sets.
17th is Sunday Bloody Sunday.
Here I was, thinking all our tweets appeared on Bono’s teleprompter…!
