WTSHNN For those concerned with soundcheck stuff. Bono and Edge soundchecked the Stevie Wonder version of Happy Birthday earlier today. #u2ieTour
@FearthePhenom Yeah, grey zone there - I think he’s just aiming to blend that old snippet in as part of the California ref.
@Ehud97 That’s a fair point, and I’ve put that caveat in the article.
Here’s our write-up and full setlist for Chicago 4: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2

@dgta31 @atu2comSherry There’s a rumour, sourced from a crew member, that the DVD will be filmed in Paris.
@atu2 Absolutely, very clear what he was singing there.
Bono sings a My Kind Of Town snippet after WOWY to end main set. Full set so far: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
@atu2comSherry Yeah it’s shown up for the previous two 4+ night stands so I’d expect it once in Chicago at least.
@ryannichols7 I briefly hoped so… but straight into WOWY damnit.
I’m disappointed that an extra song appears between BDay/WOWY only occasionally. Kind of expected Bad/Troubles there tonight. #U2ieTour #U2
Pride has usual speech referencing Martin Luther King Jr, Charleston, etc, Bono asks crowd to sing for global trouble spots. #U2ieTour #U2
@litofpigs Afraid not. Stiiiill waiting.
#U2 have now done 13 new songs this tour, equal with 360. More details in our mainpage article: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour
bethandbono Sweetest Thing lyrics. #U2ieTour http://t.co/cjig8uA2Pf
bethandbono The most beautiful sound I ever heard!!!!! Crystal Ballroom. Brilliant live. Never take it out of the set. #U2ieTour http://t.co/nLNofPqgnR
WTSHNN Bono has the southside sing the “oh oh ohs” and the northside sing “the sweetest thing” #u2ieTour
@atu2 Yeah that sounded excellent - it ought to become at least semi-regular.
15. Sweetest Thing - dedicated to Ali Hewson. Back after over a month! Missed 13 shows. #U2ieTour #U2
I should pay a whole army of people to ask for A Sort Of Homecoming. #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/u2in…
Bono is describing how people have been following band all #U2ieTour and asking for Crystal Ballroom, now telling story behind it. #U2
U2 |LIVE NOW| Tune in now live tonight from Chicago #U2ieTour #meerkat mrk.tv/1SZxYiN
@pappy90 I’m glad I’m not the only person who went there.
@AntonioMbass Kept snip as She’s A Rainbow. I’m a pedant but not enough to log the rego numbers! There’s an account doing that: @Reg1385WZ
That’s the end of the 1st set; intermission time now. Full set so far here: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
@EveryBrokenWave Ah cool, hope it was a good trip!
@EveryBrokenWave Oh where’ve you been? I’m just heading to Sydney for a week for work.
Johnny Comes Marching Home snippet in Sunday Bloody Sunday - Bono worked a Charleston mention into it. #U2ieTour #U2
@Lunnzies I’m using this one, which has generally been stable: http://mixlr.com/u2start/
@EveryBrokenWave No worries. Ax here - missed you being around during shows lately. Hope you enjoy next week; I’ll be travelling during them
A heads-up for next week’s shows… #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/Ever…
Bono: “we stand in front of you naked - metaphoric of course. I find it excruciating sometimes … it’s a raw thing.” #U2ieTour #U2
I couldn’t make it out, but bunch of people confirm Smells Like Teen Spirit also snippeted at end of Electric Co - thanks! #U2ieTour #U2
A third Mixlr, via @U2start: http://mixlr.com/u2start/ #U2ieTour #U2
Here’s our mainpage article where we will have the full set in progress: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
It’s worth noting that @harbinger384 is also the guy who played guitar in Desire last night. Good job mate! #U2ieTour #U2
Intro music playing. Two Mixlrs today. @harbinger384 at http://mixlr.com/harbing… and @thecravecase at http://mixlr.com/thecrav… #U2ieTour #U2
Hey folks, Ax here for Chicago 4. Show begins soon. Hope soundcheck of Two Hearts & Ballroom are harbingers of tonight’s set. #U2ieTour #U2
@Tvbona Actually that’s a good question - I don’t know. Most soundcheck reports are just what’s heard outside so they could be anywhere.
@JereVenencia13 I would expect it on the E stage but it would work in a lot of places in the set…
Want to know what Crystal Ballroom’s soundcheck was like? Check out a bit of it here: https://twitter.com/V_fo…
@U2start Yeah that was one of the Elevation Tour’s cooler moments.
Previous soundchecks of Crystal Ballroom had not included Bono. https://twitter.com/WTSH…
Via @WTSHNN, today’s soundcheck in Chicago: Two Hearts Beat As One, Sweetest Thing, Crystal Ballroom. #U2ieTour #U2
@duuuaaaane @U2start Hahaha fortunately nobody’s tried to persuade us of that.
u2girl1966 In the 80s it was cigarette lighters.Now it’s cell phones.Waiting for encore.@u2gigs @atu2 #U2ieTourChicago #U2ieTour http://t.co/E4OoQByXbP
@Lunnzies Already retweeted this one :) https://twitter.com/ryan…

@ChipSwain @markpeterboro Chicago 1 is a duplicate of Montreal 1. But yeah otherwise all sets have at least one variation from all others.
ryannichols7 epic video of Gloria! #u2ietour @u2gigs @u2start youtube.com/watch?v=JBmrPl…

RT @U2start: So, until a proper video surfaces, here’s our exclusive audio of Gloria from tonight’s debut #u2ietour Chicago3!
https://t.cohttps://yout…
View Chicago 3’s full setlist and show info right here: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
What a show, it sounded like. So uplifting in the wake of the #LoveWins decision. So upset I (Chris) missed a vast chunk of it.
Bono just sang “did you come here to play Jesus? I did.” Don’t think he’s done that particular lyric modification in a while. #U2ieTour #U2
This is only the 2nd time One has been done at consecutive #U2ieTour gigs. First was Phoenix 2/LA 1. #U2
Bono: “Thank you America for following our little country, which beat you to it! Ireland putting the ‘gay’ in ‘Gaelic’.” #U2ieTour #U2
Bono talking to crowd. “Why would you be against anybody committing their life to each other? What could be more extraordinary?” #U2ieTour
@vetriu2 Huh? It was played in its usual spot after Pride.
After some discussion we’ve added The Beatles’ Julia as snip after Desire. Bono got lyrics wrong but pretty sure he was trying to sing it.
It’s encore break time. Catch up on main set here (Gloria! Lucifer’s Hands! AIWIY!): http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
I’m hanging out for Shine Like Stars, but Love Will Tear Us Apart is just as good! Used to be an essential part of WOWY live. #U2ieTour #U2
AIWIY into WOWY was great. Bad into WOWY has been great at other shows. Make this a regular rotation #U2!
Bono: “feeling the spirit of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash in the house”, and gives nod to their son at tonight’s show. #U2ieTour #U2
20. ALL I WANT IS YOU, 2nd time this tour!! Bono: “You can tell the missus is in the house tonight.” #U2ieTour #U2
bethandbono “Gay pride in the name of love.” #U2ieTour #chi3 #pride http://t.co/Sq9UqRqq6U
@atu2 He’s used it over the intro of Pride a few times. It sounds great in Bullet but I find it jarring with Pride’s chimy intro.
@U2_News He sang “let me paint a picture of you Julia”, which I don’t think is a lyric of the Beatles song? But prob he just got it wrong.
Chris here popping to say YES, GLORIA!! (Almost) As excited as Ax is! Tremendous song, so happy it’s back. #U2ieTour
@DerBFreund Oh yeah might’ve been. He sang “let me paint a picture of you Julia”, which I don’t think is a line but he mangles snips often.
16. Every Breaking Wave for Bono’s “first love and my last love, who’s also here tonight”, Ali. #U2ieTour #U2
Bono is now talking about when his Dad first saw #U2 in the US, and giving a nod to his sons being in the audience tonight. #U2ieTour
@DerBFreund I’ll put it at the end of Desire, but I don’t know what song that was.
15. “We’ve been trying to do some different stuff… think we’ve played this once” B’s right: LUCIFER’S HANDS, 2nd time ever. #U2ieTour #U2
Bono now talking to the two fans on stage, Sean and Kevin. Kevin says “don’t stop making the music guys, don’t stop!” #U2ieTour #U2
WTSHNN A blind guitarist on,stage for Desire.
14. Desire, back after missing three shows. Sounds like Bono’s pulling some more people on stage to play with #U2… #U2ieTour
She says she has been on stage once before, 10 years ago in Cleveland at her 1st show. Bono replies: “my how you’ve grown!” #U2ieTour #U2
U2 |LIVE NOW| Tune in now.. live again from Chicago. #U2ieTour #meerkat mrk.tv/1SWht6U
@AntonioMbass I’m happy to forget about Crazy myself. ;)
@AntonioMbass Haha, time for another Great Snippet Debate?
@ryannichols7 Yeah I’m baffled YBR was tried on 360 rather than in arenas.
@AntonioMbass No, counting it as She’s a Rainbow by the Rolling Stones.
And poor old Passengers! I keep saying Beach Sequence/NYD would be an amazing pairing. https://twitter.com/ryan…
It’s intermission time, so catch up on the full set so far here (Gloria was played!!): http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
@U2start I’m calling that as a Stones snippet, since Mick Jagger has been in town.
U2 |LIVE NOW| Stay Tuned… #U2ieTour #meerkat mrk.tv/1SWeWcY
bethandbono Going live on Mixlr ‘bethandbono on Mixlr’. Listen here mixlr.com/bethandbono.
#U2 did two shows at the Park West, in April and December 1981: http://www.u2gigs.com/Pa… #U2ieTour #U2
Bono now talking to the crowd, mentioning when U2 played the Park West. “Would be nice to play again - note to selves.” #U2ieTour #U2
@MarkCDarwin True, I should probably clarify that on the site…
@popartist61 Haha yeah, I’ve seen it live and if it hadn’t been done for 20 years, that would’ve meant I’d been to a U2 show before I was 8!
For the record, Gloria’s live absence was 9 years, 6 months, 15 days - which in Bono’s world rounds up to 20 years. ;) #U2ieTour #U2
Another Mixlr, from @U2start: http://mixlr.com/u2start/ #U2ieTour #U2
@AntonioMbass Yeah I think that was added at the Denver show?
I love how Bono introduced Gloria as not played in 20 years though. Only one decade too many. ;) Intro’ing band over bass solo now.
Gloria is the 40th song played so far this tour, or 42nd if you count the Roxy sideshow. #U2ieTour #U2
Here’s our mainpage article for today’s show with set in progress: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
Woooaaahhh hooooly shit I’m so stoked they’ve busted out Gloria! I (Ax) ADORE this song. #U2ieTour #U2
And @thecravecase has a Mixlr feed: http://mixlr.com/thecrav… #U2ieTour #U2
Here’s a Periscope: https://www.periscope.tv… #U2ieTour #U2
Here’s the answer to the mystery 1989 song that was teased earlier. We were keeping that under our hats! https://twitter.com/atu2…
@atu2 Not Lucifer’s Hands? Or both of them? I saw mention of Lucifer earlier but not Ballroom.
@BeeZee05 VDL was played a few times on ZooTV and once in 2008, so that would appear to rule it out.
Songs not played since 1989: Exit, Hawkmoon 269, October, Two Hearts Beat As One. Counting Rotterdam January 1990: God Pt 2. #U2ieTour #U2
Soundcheck report before Chicago 3 today: Gloria, Lucifer’s Hands, and a mystery song not played since 1989. #U2ieTour #U2
@ryannichols7 I do wonder where some of the Vancouver rehearsed songs have got to… but ask about A Sort of Homecoming instead. ;)
@kaniep Don’t want to argue/get too political, but today is one of the more important days in American history. I’ll leave it at that.
Early prediction time: Beautiful Day dedicated/make reference to today’s #MarriageEquality decision. The heart is truly a bloom #LoveWins
I can’t wait to hear what Bono’s got to say about this historic occasion in a few days at Chicago 3. (Chris) #LoveWins #MarriageEquality
Chris here, popping in to say I’m damn proud to be an American today. Been on the verge of tears all day. In the name of love! #LoveWins
