If you're see them on the tour, would you prefer MLK or Bad in slot 4?

I'd take Bad hands down; love MLK, but Bad is such a great, anthemic live song.

The tour has gotten a lot better in my opinion. Night one in Vancouver was weak. They've added Bad and I Will Follow to the setlist, but need to cut the shoehorned political crap from the beginning of songs like Ultraviolet (which doesn't even fit with the song thematically).

I'll bet I Will Follow was scheduled for Vancouver but had to be cut after the delays due to noise ordinances.

I agree the political stuff with Ultraviolet doesn't really fit, but I'm just glad it's on the setlist at all, I was too young to see it on 360

Today's /mu2/ challenge: fix Rattle and Hum

Definitely MLK, heard enough of the big singles

remove it from history

Single album, kill the live tracks and release a proper TJT tour live album or EP outside of these versions:
Hawkmoon 269
Van Diemen's Land (No fade)
Desire
Angel Of Harlem
Heartland
Hallelujah Here She Comes
Love Rescue Me
When Love Comes To Town
God Part II
A Room At The Heartbreak Hotel
All I Want Is You

make a fully-fleged live album like UABRS and then release a Rattle and Hum EP

1. Desire
2. Angel of Harlem
3. When Love Comes to Town
4. Van Diemen's Land
5. Hawkmoon 269
6. All I Want Is You

Leave the rest to resurface in reissues later on down the line

The good thing about Rattle and Hum compared to something like ATYCLB is that RaH's issue isn't lack of good material, it's just bloat. So just start picking out the next worst song until you're down to 45-50 minutes

A Room At The Heartbreak Hotel
Angel Of Harlem
Silver and Gold
Desire
Hawkmoon 269
Love Rescue Me
Hallelujah Here She Comes
God Part II
When Love Comes To Town
Van Diemen's Land
All I Want Is You

>but need to cut the shoehorned political crap from the beginning of songs
I agree. I also wish they would cut Ultraviolet and Elevation from the setlist

I agree with these mostly but I think you have to make it a pure "U2 does black roots music" album to have it work thematically. So you have to take out God Part II and Van Diemen's Land (even though it's probably in my top 3 on the album)

Van Diemen's Land I would put as the first track of the live album

>Miss Sarajevo encore
what the fuck? hell yes!

Is this song a lot more well-known than I thought? A Passengers song seems kind of obscure for second encore

It's actually a George Michael song. So I think you can connect the dots.

I like this one

>It's actually a George Michael song. So I think you can connect the dots.
U2 original though

It's been really boring this tour though. Doesn't work at all.

for those who have already been to a show this tour: I've got GA tickets, what time should I show up if I want to be within a couple rows of the stage? is there a beer vendor that comes through the crowd or do I need to stock up before?

>Elevation
Dear God I can't stand that song
Sorry I can't help you buddy. I would guess 3 hours?

Bad. I've never heard it live. Feels weird that it was the 4th song though. I would love them to close with it

rather that than vertigo

So are they going to release the new song? Would kinda like to hear the studio version before I see them

Are you going to post the stream link?

10/10 remix.

How long are you fucking faggots going to act like you like U2? This meme isn't funny

We do though. Though it may be hard for your young elitist mind to conceive, U2 was actually quite good back in their heyday.

what is this from?

>young elitist mind
You guys are good. Take your (You) and get the fuck off my board

I'm I the only one who thinks the setlist is to safe? I don't think there is much room for change. I feel like at most they would change 1 or 2 songs. There's no surprise.

You can just hide this thread.

Walk to the Water
Hawkmoon 269
Desire
Silver and Gold
Angel of Harlem
Love Rescue Me
When Love Comes to Town
Heartland
Sweetest Thing
Van Diemen's Land
All I Want Is You

Still eagerly awaiting for the release of SOE.

The Lemon 12" single

honestly, i think it's gonna be shit

This is pretty dead compared to past threads. I don't think there is much to talk about

Where did everyone go?

that psycodelic intro

I don't think 18 people for a thread about U2 is bad. As I said I don't think there is much to talk about. U2 threads were kind of rare so I think a lot of people enjoyed the first few threads. But now it feels forced. Like we just want people to know that people still like U2.

True. It just works better when there's 60 posters tbqh. I think the trolls made people fuck off.

Also I think a lot of people still have finals.

This is good uh, rock n roll music.
