@ZooStation89 @U2BROTHR Variations of that “brief break” note have been on multiple sets this tour…they’ve never actually taken the break!
@EveryBrokenWave Damn! Ah well, Europe!
@TylerBronn You have NO IDEA how happy this makes me (Ax)!
bethandbono “U2 fans are the worst,” according to @TheGarden security. youtu.be/bJ7jaSfzCqo #U2ieTour
TylerBronn @u2gigs Some fans in the GA line with Dallas Schoo. I showed him my homecoming sign!! He said “you need a fender!!” http://t.co/ZmiT5zMq4D
Great photo set from the 7th U2 New York show by Jason Brice http://u2.gs/qj #U2ieTour http://t.co/uV4fBBpRoE
#U2ieTour halftime for the dates announced so far. It’s about time to start for me (Matt) soon.
@WTSHNN Where would we be without people who pay attention to the minutiae! (It’s how I keep myself in a job…)
@KevinMFeeney I’m putting money on 40 tomorrow. Perhaps Bad? Only done at 1/7 so far!
@WTSHNN Thanks. I’ve revised the write-up so hope it’s an accurate reflection now!
Satellite Of Love from 7th New York show https://youtu.be/u8Db8vE… video via @xAquaheart #U2ieTour
@WTSHNN Thanks. Was the firefighter on stage, or just handed the mic too?
Picture of NYC 7 printed set is on Instagram - closer was listed as ISHFWILF not One: http://instagram.com/p/5… #U2ieTour #U2
@Cloverground Crap I can’t read, let’s do that again…
@KevinMFeeney Surely, SURELY at least one of Cali or Crystal Ballroom will be done.
@KevinMFeeney Haha. Volcano actually seems to be slightly off the boil after becoming semi-frequent for a while.
@jpstarkey Well yeah, but you know what I mean. I should’ve probably said “with the restart”.
@carynrose Thanks for the heads-up!
@KevinMFeeney Ahaha hey @CBarcaSTJ you’re getting above your station a bit! ; )
@KevinMFeeney Or at least bet that if the rotations were repeats, they wouldn’t be repeats of songs already done twice!
@KevinMFeeney Haha! I was baffled when Elev began and even moreso with OLove. I would’ve bet money on at least 1 song not done yet in NYC.
@KevinMFeeney Yeah that was unusual. I’d like to see a printed setlist.
markpeterboro U2 Setlist stats #NYC7 (35 gigs) #setlistgeek #u2ietour @u2gigs
Mother & Child Reunion longer than snippet so its in! http://t.co/1JK6CF6YMA
Here’s our write-up and the full setlist for NYC 7: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
@jamesamurray @U2start The boundaries between song and snippet can be very fuzzy. If dependent on another song, then (normally) snippet.
@U2start @jamesamurray Honestly we’ve had basically nobody try to persuade us Hands should be listed separately.
All You Need Is Love snippet in One and that’s the end of the show. Thank you to all the amazing people streaming it on Mixlr! #U2ieTour #U2
@U2start MLK is a weird case. And for whatever reason that just brought to mind that weird night they did MLK/11OTT on the JT Tour.
Haha, tonight’s singalong of One has gone much better than the one at NYC 6 with the false start. #U2ieTour #U2
@U2start I wouldn’t say Hands is distinct from the following song - it’s clearly sung just to give a lead-in.
24 (or 25, depending on what we do with Mother & Child Reunion). One, for 3rd show in a row. Been done at 5 of 7 NYC shows. #U2ieTour #U2
@U2start Hah. four lines - of which only one is from the song - definitely is only a snippet!
At the moment I’ve got Mother & Child Reunion listed as a snippet but I am inclined to give it a separate listing. #U2ieTour #U2
@EmpirePix I remember fully expecting it to be played or at least snippeted in ’05 during the MSG residency then. Surprised it wasn’t.
Well that performance is probably going to evoke a “snippet or full song listing” debate. #U2ieTour #U2
Mother And Child Reunion is still going. No Streets yet. Oh wait, here’s the organ, Streets kicks in now! #U2ieTour #U2
Wait, Paul Simon is on stage and singing! The organ in the background seems to have stopped. #U2ieTour #U2
bethandbono Young man on stage with Bono during City of Blinding Lights. #U2ieTour #nyc7 http://t.co/VjVKsqRAlD
@EmpirePix I’m not, honestly. They haven’t touched it since end of Elevation in Dec ’01. Not even a snippet!
@AdrienneQW I didn’t catch the Burning Down The House snippet - will have to check later.
Encore time. As the band leaves stage Bono yells “most beautiful sound in the world!” to the cheering crowd, a la show intro. #U2ieTour #U2
With Or Without You has a Satellite Of Love snippet over Edge’s solo. No Shine Like Stars though. #U2ieTour #U2
@LarlarGamingYT I’m wondering if Party Girl will get an airing - it often does on such occasions…
@LarlarGamingYT Yeah I definitely expected something different tonight.
@LarlarGamingYT Ah thanks, glad somebody caught that! (Perhaps shows what I think of it… Chris is probably going to kill me…)
Lou Reed’s recorded vocals were used during tonight’s Satellite Of Love just like on ZooTV. #U2ieTour #U2
#U2 did Satellite Of Love at 145 shows on ZooTV, plus Bono & Edge did it at a memorial for Reed: http://www.u2gigs.com/Sa…
I’m genuinely surprised Elev/OLove are being done in NYC for 3rd time when Cali, Crystal Ballroom, etc yet to be played there. #U2ieTour #U2
15. Ordinary Love, back after missing one show. This is 3rd time at 7 NYC shows #U2 have done Elev/OLove in rotational slots. #U2ieTour
She was saying that nobody else stopped to help, but she did because she’s from Virginia not NYC. https://twitter.com/Ever…
The woman who called 911 took some potshots at NYC when she got the mic and they did not go down too well with the audience! #U2ieTour #U2
Haha the woman who called 911 is clarifying her name and where she’s from because Bono got it wrong! #U2ieTour #U2
Bono has the woman who called 911 for him after his bike accident and the fireman who responded! #U2ieTour #U2
Bono has @U2BROTHR on stage! Talking to him about when he was on stage with his band Acrobat. #U2ieTour #U2
TylerBronn Let’s go!!! NY 8!!! #U2ieTour @u2gigs #ASignOfHomecoming http://t.co/QZnUJ5mqtO
U2 |LIVE NOW| Tune in now live again from NYC #U2ieTour #meerkat mrk.tv/1H8wQR5
So if you are wondering what the big event is that’s meant to happen later, here’s a spoiler. #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/Jeff…
@KristinLones Ah I’ve been trying to make out the snippets at the end of UTEOTW! I’ll check that when I have a chance after show.
Intermission music is The Fly, and the full set so far is here: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
@EveryBrokenWave I reckon it’s dull both studio and live. Wouldn’t miss it if it were dropped, but being latest single it’s going nowhere.
@markjoelcaplin I’d quite happily make that permanent too. I’ll trade say Song For Someone and MWays for Electric Co and Gloria every night.
The #U2ieTour needs A Sort Of Homecoming. Let’s hope his #asignofhomecoming works! https://twitter.com/Tyle…
@EveryBrokenWave We could tag-team tomorrow like old times if you want? NYC 8 should be a bit of a party anyway.
@EveryBrokenWave Well if you’d given me a heads-up preshow…!
Bono’s now apologising for his NYC joke, and apologising to his mum for saying “fuck”. #U2ieTour #U2
Bono NYC joke: “Englishman flies to NYC and catches a taxi. Says should I ask to be taken to Empire State Building or go fuck myself?” #U2
@cqleonardo Yeah I’m actually kind of surprised he hasn’t done a line from it in any of these speeches. Prob forgotten it exists!
Dear Bono, less talk about surrender, more performing of the song Surrender. Cheers, Ax. #U2ieTour #U2
wildchordypie @atu2 @u2gigs ‘helter skelter’ being the song that inspired ‘i can see for miles.’ roger daltrey shout out #1!
Helter Skelter was played 15x in 1987 and is on R&H. Since then? Only two snippets, one of them today: http://www.u2gigs.com/He… #U2ieTour #U2
If I could pick one rotation song and make it a permanent fixture, it would be The Electric Co. #U2ieTour #U2
Yep, another Mixlr: http://mixlr.com/mysteri… #U2ieTour #U2
@EveryBrokenWave Whichever works, haha! Sil and Aingeal sound good right now.
Here’s our mainpage article where we will have the full NYC 7 set in progress: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
We are not short on Mixlrs. More: http://mixlr.com/no_end_… & http://mixlr.com/u2brothr & http://mixlr.com/gatobro… #U2ieTour #U2
@LarlarGamingYT Ooh cheers!
Well this is an interesting tease! https://twitter.com/U2BR…
Remember, this show equals #U2’s record for most consecutive nights in a city. They did 7 in a row in Melbourne ’89: http://www.u2gigs.com/to…
Three Mixlr audio streams so far for NYC7: http://mixlr.com/aingeal/ and http://mixlr.com/sil-rig… and http://mixlr.com/zoostat… #U2ieTour #U2
Hi folks, Ax here with you for NYC 7 of the #U2ieTour. What surprises tonight? Will California or Crystal Ballroom get another run? #U2

So Edge and Adam sprang a big surprise at today’s @atu2 party. We’ve posted a brief article about it: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2
mattmcgee So right now The Edge and Adam Clayton are playing at my U2 website’s 20th anniversary party. No words for this. #atu220
@EveryBrokenWave I’ve added the set to the site and am writing it up now!

atu2comSherry So happy to be supporting @AfricanWellFund tonight. FANtastic volunteer-driven organization who deserves your donation dollars.
xAquaheart @u2gigs here’s my video of One from the 27th. sorry it’s a bit late youtube.com/watch?v=e7VYX_…
@jatgolf I Threw a Brick into A Day Without Me would be immense. One of their best combos. Would love to see it given another go.
@sirens_wail It’s still a bummer they didn’t do Lemon on Vertigo’s third leg after spending some time rehearsing it.
@u2_se I wouldn’t mind it at the shows I’ll see in Stockholm :)
Here’s the photo set from the 6th U2 New York show by Jason Brichttp://u2.gs/qizW #U2ieTour http://t.co/MipOBBhLpt

@markpeterboro Shame we can’t retroactively alter what U2 played to suit the chart. Though if we could do that ASOH would be in every set ;)
markpeterboro #U2ieTour #setlistgeek New York 6 @u2gigs http://t.co/sHE4z7AHiV
@markpeterboro Uhoh, looks like 40 rather than One is marked for NYC6…

xAquaheart @u2gigs vertigo from last night youtube.com/watch?v=_qJpEt…
@EveryBrokenWave Honestly I’ve thought of discarding those repeats. But I thought the SATS repeats were those that made it to solo?
@EveryBrokenWave My rule is basically “if at least half the song played, list twice”. They barely got past the first line tonight!
@EveryBrokenWave Aha there we go, it should be visible now!
@EveryBrokenWave OK that’s weird, I actually expanded that note ages ago on the backend and it appears there but not on the live site…
sb_wreeldeal @u2gigs Incredible show. I apologise for every bad thing I thought about u2 after Sunday’s show. I freaked out during 2 Hearts and Troubles.
@jenm_c1 His voice seemed pretty done by the end of the show. One became rather shambolic really!
Damnit they cut October from NYC6’s set! #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/U2sJ…
Just added great stat on total songs played this leg of the #U2ieTour to our NYC6 article (thx @KevinMFeeney!): http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2
@KevinMFeeney Back in those days I had a bloody good memory. Right now I probably can’t tell you where I put my keys or diary!
@KevinMFeeney So do I… hence I ended up doing this! I remember being at high school scrolling through what became U2gigs whenever I could.
#U2ieTour Video of #U2 performing Two Hearts Beat As One for the first time in 25 years: https://twitter.com/xAqu…
@KevinMFeeney I may have to work that into today’s article - but after lunch, because I am starving!
@KevinMFeeney Aha, good detective work! I know the stats tour-by-tour but hadn’t checked leg-by-leg.
Here’s our write-up and the full setlist for #U2 NYC 6: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour
@KevinMFeeney I think we’ve blown past it already. It beats whole tours until ZooTV!
@JesseBasi Yeah, just Hear Us Coming. I will add it to the database one day (I promise!) to sit alongside Shine Like Stars.
Well this is falling apart. Bono’s asking Edge to hold on… now he’s trying to direct crowd and band, song come to a total stop. #U2ieTour
Huh, no snippet of California in Streets tonight. Wonder if it will be played in full at either of the last two NYC shows? #U2ieTour #U2
@creative_type Yeah I wouldn’t mind hearing Edge give it a go.
@Toonamette Every year at the uni I work at, I lecture on the Rwandan genocide. It’s… an intense gig, let me tell you that much.
Hah and now Bono’s gloating about how Ireland beat the US to marriage equality; “by popular vote I might add!” #U2ieTour #U2
Bono at end of COBL: “Blessings not just for the ones who kneel. Blessings… blessings like marriage equality!” #U2ieTour #U2
@creative_type No, they use Lykke Li’s studio vocals over the PA.
The band are taking an encore break so catch up on the full set so far here (Two Hearts!! Troubles!): http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
@Maideneer Hah I wish.
@EveryBrokenWave No I didn’t! In fact I recall an elaborate theory involving Stockholm, Berlin, and Barcelona shows.
May I (Ax) have an I-told-you-so moment? I kept saying Troubles wasn’t dead, even as other people eulogised it! #U2ieTour #U2
Bono claimed this as Troubles’ 2nd perf. It’s actually 5th after Vancouver dress rehearsal for small audience & 3 times on #U2ieTour. #U2
@initapplette Agreed. Those Vertigo Tour versions were dismal. I never expected it to come back so strongly.
Bono in Beautiful Day: “see the world in green and blue, Julian Lennon right in front of you!” #U2ieTour #U2
I thought that was an intense version of Bullet tonight. It’s sounded very good after having 360 off. Some others may benefit from a rest…
18. Hands That Built America snippet leads into Pride. Also, Bullet had the snippet of 19. #U2ieTour #U2
@KevinMFeeney @carynrose Yeah but they haven’t done WLCTT in almost 2 months now so prob forgotten it again!
@EveryBrokenWave Well it’s a poor transition to begin with. That at least tried to thread them together.
@EveryBrokenWave What I wouldn’t give for Beach Sequence/NYD. I’d even sit through Ordinary Love/Stuck/IALW for that!
That was one of the better EBW/Bullet transitions. Bono kept doing high note from end EBW over Bullet intro in short bursts. #U2ieTour #U2
17. Bullet The Blue Sky - back to the old setlist order again tonight, it would appear. #U2ieTour #U2
@KevinMFeeney @carynrose Wonder if THBAO is to “blame”; time rehearsing it precluded rehearsing rarities for E stage so chose 2 easy ones.
