If you love @markpeterboro’s #setlistgeek charts, the final versions for #U2TheJoshuaTree2017 are now on our site: u2gigs.com/article1242.ht…
u2songs We asked about the single this week rumour. Told it won’t be this week after all, but will be “very soon”. Sorry for any disappointment!
@Rodrivox They played it 17 times on I+E
@_JamesMiller_ I’m kind of wary of looking back to see how wrong I was, hahaha.
Thanks to everyone who mixlred, periscoped, commented, complained, and even blocked across the tour. See you again! #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Our final summary: u2gigs.com/article1241.ht… #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
The best #U2TheJoshuaTree2017 setlist remains that from the second show, Seattle. I’m glad such a great city got that honour.
markpeterboro The #U2TheJoshuaTree2017 is over, here is the FINAL #setlistgeek chart.@u2gigs
A pdf version will be available soon… https://t.co/1GJLxRRCmt
Ax checking in, since flight taking its sweet time to depart, and what a shame no 40. Glad IWF got a run. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
That’s all, folks. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
One last song. I Will Follow. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Invisible snippet #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
One, dedicated to the audience #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
2022 because ZooTV started 92, but 21 good too! RT @u2gigs: I’d say this could be the last Ultraviolet ever, but… #U2AchtungBaby2022
Not talking about song choice. RT @GnoccoFritto: @u2gigs Basically the same show…ok so it has the gravitas of the last night of the tour.
I’d say this could be the last Ultraviolet ever, but… #U2AchtungBaby2022
No actually. Listen to night 1, then any of these later shows. So much better. RT @GnoccoFritto: @u2gigs I can smell the sarcasm…
The only other two tours without a full 40 are ZooTV and Elevation. But those two got it as a snippet. No 40 snip on #U2TheJoshuaTree2017!
Ultraviolet! I still love this song. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
I (Ax) am just boarding a flight. Hope to get off to see something special in the encore. Fingers crossed for 40. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Best Thing is next up. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Hey Ax, how is your back on the bumpy bus?
Live Forever snippeted a second time tonight. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
A scintillating set so far. So much more than opening night. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Daniel Lanois joins for the final verse! #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Mothers of the Disappeared… #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
The Shadowman exits… Tour highlight for sure. Hope this isn’t goodbye. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
One Tree Hill is next. And here is a stat Ax will like: including snippets, this is the song’s 100th appearance! #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Love Me Do briefly mentioned at the end of Trip. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@davidguarino I won’t be shocked if they start with just 1-2 and it ends up 3-4 as tour progresses.
@davidguarino ISHFWILF and WOWY will work their way through the set, perhaps rotational. Bullet maybe for politics…. twitter.com/i/web/status/9…
@Flyersgirl65 Given they’ve avoided Exit for 30 years and Bono finds it uncomfortable to sing, I doubt it’ll be back despite its quality.
Seems fair to me. I’d expect 2-3 per show with maybe 4-5 total across tour. But could blow out with AU/NZ shows. twitter.com/ekstewie/statu…
You know what I (Ax) won’t miss about this tour? The godawful long #U2TheJoshuaTree2017 hashtag. Always should’ve been #JT30.
Surprised people so pessimistic about RTSS’s future. It’ll be back. Tonight was its 397th performance. It’ll crack 400. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@maum27oli Seriously. Hope this tour has made the band realise it should not go anywhere.
Exception might be EI shows in Australia/NZ to make up for skipping them this year, like extra ATYCLB songs at 2006 shows.
And this is likely another: Red Hill Mining Town. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Ax’s prediction re future of JT songs 4-11:
Played again: RTSS
Played in specific locales: IGC, OTH, Mothers
Unlikely: Trip, Exit
Dead: RHMT
Some songs will almost certainly not be played again after tonight. This may well be the first of them. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Running to Stand Still #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Black Dog and War snippets #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
With or Without You (minus Shine Like Stars) is followed by Bullet. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
u2songs 51 shows. Countless tweets. So many who periscoped, photos, Mixlr. You let us into your shows. And we thank you for it. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
I Still Haven’t Found #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
The Tree breaks through the soil for the final time… #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
This is what happens when you’re bouncing around on an uncomfortable bus! Good to have you here to catch my errors, Matkin. ;)
Pride (In the Name of LOVE!) #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
The Joahua Tree? I think somebody has been listening to a ripoff…
u2songs “This is the last moment of the Joshua Tree tour” - didn’t he say something like that in ’87? See you for the 40th. :D #U2TheJoshuaTree2027
Like all #U2TheJoahuaTree2017 shows, the last one begins with SBS and NYD.

20. Ultra Violet #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Re: the snippet in Beautiful Day. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017 twitter.com/mich40u2/statu…
@mich40u2 Ah great, thank you!
@AntonioMbass Yep. Not sure at which show they did it first, but it’s been par for the course in South America.
19. The Best Thing #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
End of Vertigo has a snippet of It’s Only Rock ‘n’ Roll. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
18. Vertigo, with a snippet of I Can’t Get No Satisfaction in the intro. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Yeah that comes across as notably loud just on the bootleg. twitter.com/gnoccofritto/s…
17. Elevation #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
I have no idea what Bono is snippeting in Beautiful Day. Guessing this is a Portuguese-language song. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Let’s get everyone’s opinions. Loudest U2 crowd you’ve experienced? twitter.com/jerevenencia13…
16. Beautiful Day #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
That’s it for the main set. Encore break now. No El Pueblo Vencera at the end of Mothers. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Hey this is pretty cool! twitter.com/vwithl/status/…
Bono at the start of Mothers: “censorship … Brazil is not going back”. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
15, Mothers of the Disappeared. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Exit has Wise Blood and Eeny Meeny like every other night of tour. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
14. Time to Exit. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@AntonioMbass No, I proclaim One Tree Hill the eternal number one of The Joshua Tree. All debates revolve around second.
@BrianovichIV That one’s absolutely top 4.
13. The best song on the album. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
12. Trip Through Your Wires. It was, of course, preceded by Running, Red Hill, and In God’s Country. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
I just need to pop out for a few minutes. You know what the next songs are. Back in a few.
Bullet also has the usual America snippet. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
8. Bullet the Blue Sky. It has a snippet of War in the first solo. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
After more fighting with an unco-operative laptop, I have a main page article for today’s show! u2gigs.com/article1239.ht… #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
7. With or Without You #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Bono in Still Haven’t Found: “Take it to church now! The church of Neymar! A church not made with… feet.” #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
6. “You’re back for more! Wouldn’t be the same without you.” I Still Haven’t Found. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Streets has the little snippet of California. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
5. Time for Brazil’s second joshua tree: it’s Where the Streets Have No Name #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
The first few results on Google when I looked up the lyrics misled me. Waters of March is by Antônio Carlos Jobim. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Bad had a very long snippet of David Campbell’s Waters of March. Now onto Pride. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@GnoccoFritto I assume as part of a rap wth Elvis Ate America?
Huzzah, I’m in business now, U2 partway through Bad. This is Sil’s Mixlr: mixlr.com/sil-rigote--2/ #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Hopefully I’ll be in action for Bad but somebody keep an ear out for snippets for me in case, please…
The band have begun São Paulo 2 with SBS and NYD but I’m having computer problems! #U2TheJoshuaTree2017

That Drowning Man snippet Bono did at some shows to end One disappeared too quickly… #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Invisible snippet at the end of One. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@gilson_jr_ I think ASOH is dead after not appearing or even being soundchecked in Mexico City or Buenos Aires. MWays, yeah, probably.
@DrewBrown777 I was going to agree with you until you said Ordinary Love!
Fingers crossed for a 22nd song. Might be the only spot we get variation at these Brazilian shows. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017

@themadirishman3 Thank you, really appreciate the kind words!
19. You’re the Best Thing About Me #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@U2History And then when Bono started talking OVER the Pavarotti recording. That was so frustrating.
Vertigo has a snippet of Rebel Rebel at the end. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@U2History Yeah there’s one that didn’t need to be revived for this tour, that’s for sure. Please would’ve done the same job, but better.
18. Vertigo. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@JereVenencia13 I think COBL needed a rest - I was surprised it was a regular on IE. Expect it’ll be back in future though.
To be honest I wouldn’t miss Beautiful Day or Elevation if they both took a long rest next tour… #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
17. Elevation #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Starman snippet in Beautiful Day #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
16. The encore begins with Beautiful Day #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
That’s the end of the main set. Encore break now. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
I never thought Bono reciting Eeny Meeny Miny Moe in Exit would survive even halfway through #U2TheJoshuaTree2017, let alone to the end.
“You are not going back, Brazil” Bono says over intro of Mothers of the Disappeared. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
15. Mothers of the Disappeared. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@gilson_jr_ I’m hoping the huge positive reception it has received might spur the band to consider keeping it on. But very doubtful.
@Noah_Weafs 3 more in São Paulo and then it’s done.
Exit has its usual Wise Blood and Eeny Meeny snippets. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
14. Exit. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017

And yes I’m pleased about yesterday’s political developments in NZ. Some of my thoughts quoted at end of this: abc.net.au/news/2017-10-1…

12. Trip Through Your Wires #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
@GnoccoFritto Yeah I’d love a guitar-led version…

11. In God’s Country. My guess is we’re unlikely to hear this again in full electric form after this tour ends. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017

@gilson_jr_ Haven’t heard anything new recently, I’m afraid!
Will São Paulo be the last city in the world to hear Red Hill Mining Town, or will it live on to future tours? #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
10. Red Hill Mining Town. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
9. Running to Stand Still #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
And to complete the Bullet snippetry, America from West Side Story. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
Bono hums The Star Spangled Banner’s melody leading into Bullet’s first solo. Then snippet of Edwin Starr’s War. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
8. Bullet the Blue Sky #U2TheJoshuaTree2017
I hope I wasn’t the only one who misheard Bono as saying “goddamn” here. #U2TheJoshuaTree2017 twitter.com/atu2/status/92…
