@u2fanz Well, I’m hoping we get lucky and score HMTMKMKM two nights in a row!
Now time to sleep I think! Then do it all again on Friday. Here’s hoping that show gets Boy Falls From The Sky. #u2360melbourne
@JohnnyVOXX I was able to order now but no mail confirmation …
@skid63 Haha, I wasn’t really expecting One Tree Hill to stay in the set. Wish it had made it though.
@llootsteen39 Enjoying/Interneting until the phone decided to pack it in. One of my mates may’ve been filming…
@thephonebox Thanks. Hope there’s a recording; didn’t sound like Every Breaking Wave to me but I was all too stunned they were playing it!
@ZooPony MW was missing the solo, as it has all tour!
I have just updated our article with more statistics, and added a couple of snippets to the set: http://u2.gs/melb1 #u2360melbourne
Hi folks, Ax here, sorry my phone died during Crazy Tonight! One of 360’s better shows, thanks to Bad, HMTM, and IWF. #u2360melbourne
eatingmelbourne Larry Mullen must have given up the Botox. Or lost that recipe for eternal youth. I guess he couldn’t stay looking 25 for ever. #U2
@JohnnyVOXX That would be Germany. Tried 3 times to register now …
That’s it for the first Melbourne show. Here is our setlist recap: http://u2.gs/melb1 Ax will update the article as soon as he is back home.
@JohnnyVOXX Both but Argentina seems to me more difficult with the website problems.

snarkle Gigantic stage is GIGANTIC.
17 stitched photos to fit the whole thing in. #u2 #u2360melbourne http://yfrog.com/07lktjj
@buckleup so we just learned it’s nearly closed. See previous tweet.
@atu2 that looks clever with the rain going stronger.
atu2 Check out how they almost closed the roof —> RT @lamontcaldwell: Pre Show look! Melbourne, Australia! http://twitvid.com/DSDPD
@buckleup They can’t close the roof as the stage is to high.
Shit, phone parlously low on charge. Won’t update until band on. 5 or so hours to go. Have backup ph with little credit if this dies.
Think that’s it for soundcheck by crew. Local time is 3.40pm. #u2360melbourne
Check, check… Vocal test now by crew member. #u2360melbourne
Rain showers getting heavier. #u2360melbourne
Crazy Tonight soundcheck now. Still instrumental, still crew. #u2360melbourne
Opening notes of IALW, now Miss S keys only, then walk on keys. #u2360melbourne
So yes, I am here now. Crew did Boots riff, B Day, Desire riff. #u2360melbourne
All obviously instrumental and incomplete to various degrees #u2360melbourne
Crew soundcheck. Cobl, vertigo, mos, magnif, mw, uteotw, elevation, streets #u2360melbourne
Poster in tram tells me it’s World AIDS Day. Guess what Bono will speak about tonight! #u2360melbourne
Crew are testing the PA with 80s music at the moment. #u2360melbourne
Catching tram to Etihad pretty soon. Will try to tweet as much as I can from the gig! #u2360melbourne
@hjwallace1 There are some weird sculptures outside Etihad… I photographed some of them here, 11th and 12th photos: http://u2.gs/hy
Melb forecast: 25C, “Isolated showers, more widespread with possible afternoon thunderstorms in the north.” Rain snips? #u2360melbourne
Since a few of you asked: no, I’m not in the queue yet; most of my mates are. I’m going down around 2:30 or 3 in case there’s a soundcheck.
He also says the queue has been divided into pens of 50 people like last time. (This did not happen in other Aussie cities.) #u2360melbourne
Via @Almond87, a picture of the queue about 15 minutes ago: http://yfrog.com/gvv6l0j #u2360melbourne
@snarkle Exactly! I’d show up even later than 3pm but I’d like to hear the soundcheck if there is one.
Well over 600 people in the queue at Etihad now. #u2360melbourne
