#U2 #dreamfest @U2Community
I (Ax) will get back to work and leave Matkin to his madness. Cheers folks, see you next time, whenever that is.
ClaytonsKitten @u2gigs @stefsaysgovols Kinda want to see Bono and Hammer break into the Cha Cha Slide now, tho….
My now deleted tweet about Bono busting out Can’t Touch This was, of course, filled with lyrics for the Chaa-Chaa Slide instead. Oops?
@AntonioMbass Hahaha ooops.
Because it is 1am for Matkin and I don’t know any better RT @stefsaysgovols: @u2gigs why is he doing the cha cha slide
Here’s our writeup on today’s #U2 #Dreamfest performance with the full setlist: u2gigs.com/article1139.ht…
SilRigote As much as I wished I was there, I have to say, it was fun to share this moment w/ all of you online! Thanks #U2ers! See you in 2017!!! #U2
Well that is it for U2. Time for the afterparty with MC Hammer and will-dot-i-dot-am. Possible Bono will join one of them for a song
That would appear to be the actual end. I (Ax) am surprised neither iHeart nor this show got Out Of Control. #Dreamfest
“All the way at the back! We’re feeling ya!” #U2 #Dreamfest
Will be ten minutes or so till their slot runs out after 40 ends. Maybe they’d sneak in an Out of Control? ;-) #U2 #Dreamfest
Bono intros 40, referring to band’s anniversary: “It’s kinda like a fortieth birthday song.” #Dreamfest
40 to close the night. #U2 #Dreamfest
OH YES HERE WE GO IT’S 40. #Dreamfest
Songs Ax says better than Streets live: Bad, One Tree Hill, 11 O’clock TickTock, Fly, UTEOTW, A Sort of Homecoming, Elec Co. #myshitopinions
The answer: “Unfinished business!” Now Edge, it’s been a while: don’t fall off the stage! #U2 #Dreamfest
Still Haven’t Found is next. Bono talks about meeting 40 years ago. “Very good question if you ask: Why are we still here?” #U2 #Dreamfest
Unlike Ax, I (Matkin) happen to have nodding-dog syndrome because it is almost 1 am! #U2 #Dreamfest
TylerBronn Prays for shine like stars @u2gigs
I (Ax) am going to be controversial and say Bad wipes the floor with Streets. twitter.com/SilRigote/stat…
Unlike Matkin, I (Ax) was paying attention. There was a bit of a “la la la” but nothing quite enough to be a snip i… twitter.com/i/web/status/7…
Here’s With Or Without You, the song on the printed set for iHeart that missed out. #Dreamfest
I missed checking for a California snip in Streets! #U2 #Dreamfest
Streets, for the first time ever with the red background on the Vertigo stage! Bounce, Sherry, bounce! #U2 #Dreamfest
U2Community #Dreamfest trending #2 we hear. In Germany.
Up next: Mother & Child Reunion, which of course means Streets. #U2 #Dreamfest
Bono takes another shot at Trump? “This community is about giving away billions, not making it.”
My Sweet Lord snippeted at the end of One. Bono echoes Slane and says they’ll stay on the stage. Guess this the encore break? #Dreamfest #U2
Eleven songs in and we finally get a song from the nineties. #Dreamfest
Glad that I (Matkin) am not the only one with backend troubles!
Naomi_U2Sydney Compare video of #Trump with #MLK - can’t get a more powerful contrast #U2 @U2 #dreamfest
U2 have been on stage about an hour so far. They have another 35 minutes or so to use before cutting into MC Hammer #U2 #Dreamfest
_Bigwave_ Tonights Presidential debate is brought to you by @U2 & #Dreamfest from Daly City SF. The Donald gonna punch Larry in the face?? Right.
@MarkCDarwin Ha, maybe I (Ax) will count that in two decades after I finally finish Hear Us Coming for One.
One is eleventh #U2 #Dreamfest
I (Ax) am having tech difficulties w/ the site backend adding the snips for Bullet, so those won’t be displayed until Matthias can fix.
What a rant. That was a seriously long Bullet as a result. #Dreamfest
Hands That Built America snippet into Pride #U2 #Dreamfest
KevinMFeeney @u2gigs I was just thinking this is the ballsiest Bono has been politically since Please. Maybe 01 Bullet.
atu2 What’s the over/under on a Trump tweet coming with comments about Bono? I say less than an hour from now (sherry)
RT @SilRigote: YES!!!! ALL the Brazilians
SO… Bullet the Blue Sky / Star-Spangled Banner (snippet) / Statue of Liberty (snippet)???? Ax???????? #U2 #Dreamfest
Geez I (Ax) wish U2 were doing a full tour right now. It’d be proper political and fiery like in the old days.
Bono tells Trump: “you’re fired!” #Dreamfest
.@atu2 Bible verse isn’t it? I recognize it from Mike Oldfield’s Let There Be Light. Maybe a snippet? #Dreamfest #U2
Bono going for it w/ mocking “convo” w/ Trump. “Good people are not going to stay silent while you run off w/ the American dream” #Dreamfest
Bono referring to Trump as “Candidate”, not by name. #U2 #Dreamfest
Smug Trump picture on the screen. “I’m really rich!” “And your point is?” #U2 #Dreamfest
One Billion! Two Billion! #U2 #Dreamfest
“A candidate comes up to me, his face red like a rose on a thorn bush.” You mean orange, Bono. #Dreamfest
atu2 Expect a huge rant on Trump during Bullet tonight - you’ve been warned #Dreamfest #U2
Star-Spangled Banner snippet #U2 #Dreamfest
@metsfanmx I’d put it at 0.5%
@sb_wreeldeal I find its sentimentality to be sickly sweet, and the lyrics ham-fisted.
Ninth: Bullet #U2 #Dreamfest
It will remain my secret until they begin falling from the sky. #U2 #Dreamfest RT @Acrobatgirl: @u2gigs So what was your version?
Anyone expecting a non-hit/rarity tonight really shouldn’t. U2 will focus on their known songs. #U2 #Dreamfest
@sb_wreeldeal How do you shift gears that badly?!
@sb_wreeldeal I (Ax) still can’t believe U2 went from writing Mofo to writing Stuck in the space of 3 years.
Steve of course being Steve Jobs #U2 #Dreamfest
Song 8 is Every Breaking Wave, dedicated to Laureen and Steve, the son of a refugee #U2 #Dreamfest
It was only during the IE tour that I realized I’ve been singing the lyrics at the end of Stuck wrong for 15 years… #U2 #Dreamfest
This is character assassination, Matkin! On the other hand, U2 playing this blather is good for my productivity at… twitter.com/i/web/status/7…
The only U2 song Ax likes more than Stuck is IALW. I’m at least quite happy that it has been played differently every tour. #U2 #Dreamfest
No guitars given away at end of AOH. Song seven is Stuck in a Moment #U2 #Dreamfest
Bono mentions #U2 started off in a carpark, playing gigs at Dandelion Market. #Dreamfest
I can’t type tonight. CC @mattmcgee #U2 #Dreamfest
“The goal is soul” Bono shouts at the beginning. He said it quite often during BD on Elevation, but as far as I know it isn’t a snippet
Edge went a bit original at the end there. Well, I’m sure @mattmccgee will be happy he heard it. Angel of Harlem next up. #U2 #Dreamfest
When the rain of snippets finally arrives, it pours. twitter.com/harbinger384/s…
Ax has determined it is Zooropa, not Acrobat. The “dream up the world you want to live in” seals it. Bollocks. #U2 #Dreamfest
sb_wreeldeal @u2gigs They finally played a location appropriate song!
RT @SilRigote: OMG!!!! This California intro. Ok, now I’m in tears
This is just the seventh performance of California, the third IN California itself. #U2 #Dreamfest
California Dreaming snippeted at the beginning #U2 #Dreamfest
Fifth song is California #U2 #Dreamfest
Blackbird snippet closes Beautiful Day. #Dreamfest
Dream out loud Bono shouts at the end. Ax, PLEASE can we call that an Acrobat snippet? Followed by Blackbird snippet. #U2 #Dreamfest
Zooropa snippet in BDay! “Dream up the world you want to live in, dream out loud”. #Dreamfest
@atu2comSherry Just about the length of U2 Go Home, perfect!
Fourth song is Beautiful Day #U2 #Dreamfest
Seems the break has wiped the snippets from Bono’s eyes. #U2 #Dreamfest
Bono band intros in IWF. “On the drums the man who started this show, Larry Mullen Jr!” #Dreamfest
Bono introduces the band and directs the spotlight #U2 #Dreamfest
Ax is quite shameless. Third song of the night is I Will Follow #U2 #Dreamfest
If you’re at work like me (Ax) and just need #Dreamfest audio, try this Mixlr: mixlr.com/therossman/
Also, can I (Ax) promote my book again? Yes? Thanks. This has kept me busy lately, hope some of you may like it: otago.ac.nz/press/books/ot…
Second song of the night is Elevation #U2 #Dreamfest
Vertigo Tour visuals are quite fittingly back #U2 #Dreamfest
Matkin will be your main host today because I’m at work, but I’ll keep the main page humming and chime in every now and then.
I’ a bit rusty; let’s see if we can catch snippets! #U2 #Dreamfest
