jljoplin Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Magnificent would be great. When The Edge hits those first notes the whole stadium would go nuts!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think will be the opener of the live set? YEAH! I completely agree with you!! But also FEZ+NO LINE.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortitude Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I think they'll start with Fez-Being Born followed by the alternative version of No Line on the Horizon, then Magnificent. Boots will be the start of the first encore, followed by Discotheque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sad_eyes Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 electricco wrote: Unknown Caller, Why Not ? Sunshine, sunshine Sunshine, sunshine Oh, oh Oh, oh ................ Makes the most sense - it's like the only song on the album that "eases" you into the song with a buildup of sorts - then BOOM OH OH!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Cary Posted June 13, 2009 Subscriber Share Posted June 13, 2009 Recent band commentary reports that the new material is going better that expected. We will hear more than 5 songs fromthe new album. I foresee this tour being similar to the ZooTV tour with the majority of the front-half of the show being dominated by new material. I alsothink that many staples (IWF, SBS, ISHFWILF, Bullet, UTEOTW, Fly, Mysterious Ways & maybe even Pride) get shelved this tour. Fez (PA intro)>01. No Line On The Horizon02. Get On Your Boots03. Magnificent04. The Unforgettable Fire or One Tree Hill05. Moment Of Surrender06. Gone or Last Night On Earth07. Unknown Caller08. Stand Up Comedy09. I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight--10. White As Snow or Promenade11. Kite or Heartland12. Original Of The Species--13. Beautiful Day14. A Day Without Me or Fire15. Please or Acrobat or Hawkmoon 26916. Walk On or Two Hearts Beat As One17. Elevation18. Where The Streets Have No Name(Encore 1)19. City Of Blinding Lights20. Breathe21. Vertigo(encore 2)22. Cedars of Lebanon23. One24.

sea_islander Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 mariacm wrote: Fez could be played as an encore opener, maybe even the second, Larry, Adam and Edge on the stage and Bono singing from the backstage "let me in the sound" and then Magnificent. I can actually see NLOTH as the show's closer, with the idea of ending, but not ending...but NLOTH would make a fine opener, too, as some suggest. Many suggest FEZ -- me too -- but I'm closest in thinking to Mariacm, though still not the same : I'd like FEZ with its atmospheric intro to be the atmospherics which gets the band onto the stage, with images of ghost fluttering sheets but everything is mostly dark so you can only just guess the band is appearing. When Bono begins his first Moby-like yawp, he can be spotlighted, followed by the spotlighting of Larry, Adam, and Edge, with the fluttering sheet images less ghostly, more tangible. You can imagine the crowd is roaring now, which brings in the bad part -- the entire song can't support this early energy (they'd have to wear the audience down into the entire-concert-long rythym, that is play the song later in, to play it all) so the end of FEZ must be sacrificed for a segue into MAGNIFICENT which can support this energy With the line "African sun at last," the blowing sheets lift into a very large, very strong sun image. Bono's next yawp marks the beginning of MAGNIFICENT. The sun image can stay there strong then slowly fade until, when Edge really kicks in with his guitar, we move into a bright lights, big city rendering of the show's real opener. Such is how I would imagine it -- though I will absolutely accept however U2 opens a show. I'm a fan from way back Btw, how can I get the U2 360 TOUR hood ornament for my Volkswagon? I can't find "Automotive" under "Featured Categories" at the U2.COM SHOP (okay, okay ... I really just want to pimp it on a chain around my neck at the club ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
