@u2_se I wouldn’t mind it at the shows I’ll see in Stockholm :)

@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 ;)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to markpeterboro

@markpeterboro Uhoh, looks like 40 rather than One is marked for NYC6…

@EveryBrokenWave Honestly I’ve thought of discarding those repeats. But I thought the SATS repeats were those that made it to solo?

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

@EveryBrokenWave My rule is basically “if at least half the song played, list twice”. They barely got past the first line tonight!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

@bonojour @jenm_c1 Yes, beg(one) with you!

(…I know that doesn’t quite work.)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to bonojour

@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…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

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.

 via Twitter Web Client (retweeted on 7:16 AM, Jul 28th, 2015  via Tweetbot for iΟS)

@jenm_c1 His voice seemed pretty done by the end of the show. One became rather shambolic really!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to jenm_c1

Damnit they cut October from NYC6’s set! #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/U2sJ…

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

@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!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@KevinMFeeney So do I… hence I ended up doing this! I remember being at high school scrolling through what became U2gigs whenever I could.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

#U2ieTour Video of #U2 performing Two Hearts Beat As One for the first time in 25 years: https://twitter.com/xAqu…

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney I may have to work that into today’s article - but after lunch, because I am starving!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@KevinMFeeney Aha, good detective work! I know the stats tour-by-tour but hadn’t checked leg-by-leg.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

Here’s our write-up and the full setlist for #U2 NYC 6: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney I think we’ve blown past it already. It beats whole tours until ZooTV!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

That’s the end of NYC 6, folks. Thank you to EVERYONE who streamed tonight; A+ work! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

One has an All You Need Is Love snippet. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@JesseBasi Yeah, just Hear Us Coming. I will add it to the database one day (I promise!) to sit alongside Shine Like Stars.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to JesseBasi

Alright, now they’re going from the top, One has resumed! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

24. One. Bono: “you can sing yourselves home - I’m out”. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

@creative_type Yeah I wouldn’t mind hearing Edge give it a go.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to creative_type

@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.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Toonamette

23. Mother And Child Reunion snippet leads to Where The Streets Have No Name #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono gives a shoutout to President Kigame of Rwanda, who is in attendance tonight. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

carynrose Fan in the front row had an equality flag which is what prompted Bono’s remark @u2gigs

 via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 4:36 AM, Jul 28th, 2015  via Twitter Web Client)

Bono: “people who support justice and equality, well, we like to kiss their arse”. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono: “people who get in the way of justice and equality, we like to kick their arse” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Hah and now Bono’s gloating about how Ireland beat the US to marriage equality; “by popular vote I might add!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono at end of COBL: “Blessings not just for the ones who kneel. Blessings… blessings like marriage equality!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

22. City Of Blinding Lights opens the encore. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@creative_type No, they use Lykke Li’s studio vocals over the PA.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to creative_type

It’s encore time - Stephen Hawking video is playing now. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

WOWY has a snippet of Van Morrison’s In The Garden, but alas no Shine Like Stars. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@EveryBrokenWave No I didn’t! In fact I recall an elaborate theory involving Stockholm, Berlin, and Barcelona shows.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

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

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono claimed this as Troubles’ 2nd perf. It’s actually 5th after Vancouver dress rehearsal for small audience & 3 times on #U2ieTour. #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

The last time The Troubles was played was over a month ago, 16 June in Montreal. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

20. THE TROUBLES! Back for 4th performance of tour after missing 17 shows! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Beautiful Day ends with an I Remember You snippet dedicated to Joey Ramone #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@initapplette Agreed. Those Vertigo Tour versions were dismal. I never expected it to come back so strongly.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to initapplette

Bono in Beautiful Day: “see the world in green and blue, Julian Lennon right in front of you!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono’s giving his usual mid-Pride speech about peace. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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…

 via Twitter Web Client

18. Hands That Built America snippet leads into Pride. Also, Bullet had the snippet of 19. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney @carynrose Yeah but they haven’t done WLCTT in almost 2 months now so prob forgotten it again!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@EveryBrokenWave Well it’s a poor transition to begin with. That at least tried to thread them together.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

@EveryBrokenWave What I wouldn’t give for Beach Sequence/NYD. I’d even sit through Ordinary Love/Stuck/IALW for that!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

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

 via Twitter Web Client

17. Bullet The Blue Sky - back to the old setlist order again tonight, it would appear. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney @carynrose Wonder if THBAO is to “blame”; time rehearsing it precluded rehearsing rarities for E stage so chose 2 easy ones.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

16. Every Breaking Wave. I miss October beforehand. Or even better, putting it afterwards to lead into NYD. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono has gifted the guitar to the Chilean fan (Ignacio, I think) - third time he’s done that this tour. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney I’m curious to see if this was on printed set or chosen because the fan can play it.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

Never mind Angel Of Harlem people, take #asignofhomecoming and get pulled on stage to play A Sort Of Homecoming. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

15. Angel Of Harlem, also back after missing two shows, with fan on guitar. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono’s bringing another fan on stage now, from Chile - “now you better be able to play guitar alright!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

14. Desire, back after missing two shows. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono brings fan on stage, asks where he’s from. “New York fucking City!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

And also a Young Americans snippet in MWays. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

MWays has Burning Down The House snippet. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

U2 |LIVE NOW| Tune in now live from NYC #U2ieTour #meerkat mrk.tv/1LQEJTl

 via (retweeted on 3:35 AM, Jul 28th, 2015  via Twitter Web Client)

@KevinMFeeney Yes, they rehearsed Mofo and Velvet Dress on third leg. Please was rehearsed on first leg but not used.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@KevinMFeeney Oh man, the Popcore would’ve been epic. I’ve no idea why Edge disliked that version of Discotheque so much.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@akmcquade Yeah at its heart it’s a fairly simple song to play. I live in hope it’s played again one day…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to akmcquade

12. Even Better Than The Real Thing #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

11. The second set begins with Invisible. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney No kidding. I think it’s U2’s best post-Lovetown tour.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@KevinMFeeney Wait, I HAVE been to a show with 2 of those: 2005-05-26 Boston had Gloria and OOC and it’s prob the best U2 gig I’ve attended.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@KevinMFeeney I can’t even begin to image how epic a show would be with just two of those in the same set, let alone all four.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

Intermission time with The Fly. Here’s the set so far - TWO HEARTS!: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney No kidding. Some of these rotation songs sound great and deserve more live opportunities.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

UTEOTW has the Love & Peace Or Else snippet. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@KevinMFeeney Yeah there was nothing at the start and I don’t think there was a Sex Pistols snippet in the middle tonight.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

I find it interesting that so far #U2 have played 3 War songs on the #U2ieTour - and New Year’s Day is not one of them.

 via Twitter Web Client

10. Until The End Of The World. At the end of Raised By Wolves was the normal snippet of Psalm 23. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

When Johnny Comes Marching Home snippet in SBS, the first snippet of the night as it happens. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

7. Song For Someone, Bono introduces it with a shoutout to his daughters who are there tonight. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@iammarsgirl Go for another bike ride, jinx it for another rarity!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to iammarsgirl

@Manyi5 Watch the video I just posted and then get back to me about Hawkmoon. ;)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Manyi5

I’ve posted this often before, but if you’ve missed it, proof Hawkmoon may be #U2’s greatest live opener ever: https://www.youtube.com/…

 via Twitter Web Client

Oh and don’t forget Hawkmoon! That song badly needs to come back. #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/U2st…

 via Twitter Web Client

@anandadaydream @achtung_meggie Yep, its last performance was 1989-12-27, which is 25 years and 7 months ago exactly.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to anandadaydream

He also gave a shoutout to Anton Corbijn, who is there tonight. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono describes last couple of months of #U2ieTour as including some of the best shows of their life. #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono speaking to crowd, describes #U2 as “a brotherhood - there are some sisters of course, and I’m not just talking about Adam Clayton”.

 via Twitter Web Client

@EveryBrokenWave Man I wish they’d played it for you! But woooow can’t believe they pulled it out finally.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

OK people, if #U2 can resurrect Two Hearts, bring your #asignofhomecoming to every show and get A Sort Of Homecoming played! #U2ieTour

 via Twitter Web Client

4. Bono says “we got some more”: I Will Follow #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Safe to say the fanbase is excited about #U2 playing Two Hearts! https://twitter.com/Ever…

 via Twitter Web Client

3. Vertigo. Goddamn was Two Hearts fun. Sounded good for a song after a 25 year layoff! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Wow wow wow. I thought Two Hearts was abandoned after its soundchecks in Chicago led to nothing. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono introduced Two Hearts as a song #U2 have not played in a quarter of a century. He’s right! 1989-12-27 its only perf since ’85 #U2ieTour

 via Twitter Web Client

2. HOOOOLY SHIT TWO HEARTS BEAT AS ONE FIRST PERFORMANCE SINCE 27 DECEMBER 1989!!! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

We’re definitely not short on Mixlr streams tonight! A fifth: #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/ross…

 via Twitter Web Client

Here’s our mainpage article with tonight’s full set in progress: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2

1. NYC 6 begins with The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone). #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@Drea104 @u2interference Though I do prefer “vocal parasite”. ;)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Drea104

People Have The Power is playing in New York. Almost showtime! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@StartAtlnfinity Cool - I really don’t know why people churn through their battery life broadcasting 30+ mins of preshow music.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to StartAtlnfinity

Time for #U2ieTour NYC 6! Ax here with a shoutout to my insufferable wankers on the @u2interference forums, my Internet home of 12+ years.

 via Twitter Web Client

@carynrose Wait you’re telling me you don’t remember last night’s crazy Hendrix/Buddy Holly/Beethoven jam on Spanish Eyes?

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to carynrose

@popartist61 WLCTT a four-off, do you mean? ; ) But otherwise I agree.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to popartist61

@TomLiodice Wow, that’s some incredible luck! I (Ax) consider myself lucky to have seen it once during my 19 shows.
