I'm bummed that Red Flag Day and Little Things are not part of the SoE set. I'm stoked that Acrobat was played tonight. I was worried that it might be relegated to the second night only, in cities with two shows. I'm still worried about that (I only have a ticket for Night One in San Jose). Was Acrobat as powerful as on the recording? Well, just as JT was played at every show last year, TLTTGYA was played at very many of the shows, and (if I recall correctly) the only SOE preview to be played last year. That must have gone into the thinking. (I'm also a little disappointed - I love that song and think it is a new classic. But, I forgive them. ) "Acrobat" in the setlist just makes my year. Bring on the shows! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its an awesome summer time song and should be in heavy rotation on the radio airwaves right about now, imo. Oh well, we don't always get what we want. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(I still haven't gotten over missing ASOH on JT) Agreed. It was a very weird feeling last year to hear "Bad" (a song I love, but have heard countlessly many times live) and end up being disappointed that it wasn't ASOH (a song I don't think I have ever heard live - in person, anyway). I think a lot of these songs are keepers - I bet we hear it (Acrobat, that is). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was a powerful performance. Why have they waited all these years? Why wasn't it played right before "Love is Blindness" on the Zoo TV tour?? I'd like to see Edge on the catwalk for his soaring solo (3:05). Can't wait to hear it in San Jose. It's gonna be like a date with my 30-year-old self from 1991..

Subscriber doctornickriviera 756 Posted May 3, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted May 3, 2018 Love love love acrobat, made my 5am U.K. start a much better one! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber dmway 1,952 Posted May 3, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted May 3, 2018 WAIT! No mention was made by anyone about the "Be Attitudes". Did they feature in the show, and, if so, how? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paoladegliesposti 521 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Hello from Italy, that has been a fabolous set list, indeed. It is incredibly talkative the guitar in ' The Blackout' and Lights of home is even better live! Acrobat nevertheless , I have heard something new in it. Thank you and I hope to listen to all the other songs soon. A great show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber kings 81 Posted May 3, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted May 3, 2018 No Little Things? OMG! In my opinion one of the best songs written over the last 10 years. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
