2010-08-21 - Helsinki, Finland - Olympic Stadium

setlist

Performance notes: This is the first time ever that U2 perform two shows in Finland on one tour. Previous visits in 1982 and 1997 were for just one concert each time. For the occasion, a number of surprises are in the setlist. Most notable is the debut performance of an unreleased song called Every Breaking Wave. I Will Follow makes its tour debut; No Line On The Horizon is played for the first time in 2010, in a new semi-acoustic arrangement; Pride returns after a 25-concert absence, displacing Sunday Bloody Sunday. This is the first time U2 have played no songs from the War album at a concert since 27 June 1997. The snippet of Led Zeppelin's Rock And Roll at the end of Glastonbury is played by Larry on drums.

Performance

A fantastic performance, with everyone in excellent form, delivering a tight show with few mistakes throughout, minus Bono singing early on Mysterious Ways and singing off-beat at the start of With Or Without You, which he corrects by restarting. Almost every song at this show is played exceptionally well. Because of the weather at the show, Bono also takes the liberty of throwing in a couple of Singin' In The Rain snippets throughout the show, along with Rain in One, which is great to hear. The only performance I would describe as weak here is Mysterious Ways, which features the standard 360-era problems with Bono singing the verses flat. However, everything else at this show rectifies this.

Overall

Overall, it is a fantastic performance from the 1st month of the 2010 European leg of 360, featuring an excellent band performance which is backed up by a couple of noteworthy additions to the setlist, with these being the tour debut of I Will Follow, which is played instead of New Year's Day, a one-off semi-acoustic version of No Line On The Horizon which is it's only performance after 2009 and the debut of an early version of Every Breaking Wave which contains noticeable differences when compared to the final song that made it on the Songs Of Innocence album. The band also play brilliant versions of Glastonbury, which happens to be the final performance of the unreleased song, Miss Sarajevo, with these August 2010 versions being exceptional, I'll Go Crazy, with the Discotheque snippet which even has The Edge joining in and One featuring the snippet of Rain. A phenomenal show for the most part and a high-ranking 2010 360 show in my eyes which shouldn't be missed by anyone checking out 2010 360 performances.
