Now who was on @U2 - I'm hearing that @U2 was mentioned somewhere in the concert. Or is just that I'm hearing things o_0 ?

I read that on Twitter but don't have any idea what it means, either.  Would M2 know?

I don't understand what all the "excitement" is over tonight's setlist.  Folks, this is basically the EXACT setlist from Barcelona #1, with the exception of Desire, Electrical Storm, and Party Girl.  Suppose you could include normal version of Crazy as well, but i'd prefer they play a different song instead of the same song twice.  

Granted, Electrical Storm sounded great and I'm happy to see them play it, but for a band of U2 stature, tenure, and back catalog, throwing in UTEOTW, Last Night On Earth, Exit, Dirty Day, Gone, etc etc would have a) rocked the show more and taken it from the "softer" side and b) really showed that Edge was being totally honest when he said they'd shake things up more this tour.  Changing approx. 13% of the previous nights setlist is encouraging, but they could and probably should do more.  

It is early in the tour, so I'll reserve further judgement for later.  But again, I'm sure it was a stellar performance, but this unabashed excitement over 3 new songs (at least 2 acoustic) while the rest of the setlist remained unchanged (Crazy exception in encore notwithstanding) is rather interesting.

Thanks so much. Funny to hear a German voice secretly broadcasting the concert...at the end he says, "see you later!"

Do you guys think the setlist is "Softer" for the European gig and gets "Rockier" for the American tours? Just a thought.

Someone needs to talk to the synth player on One....if you listen closely to the chord changes he messes up really bad going back into the next verse from the chorus...not a big deal though

The show won't get its identity until about half way through the first leg.  As you can see with both versions of Crazy being played, they're still testing the waters on what's working and what's not.   I hope they keep this setlist up, it only seems to getting better as the tour goes on and maybe they'll bring out more rare songs.
