Joshua Tree Tour 2019
 Legs (1): New Zealand, Australia and Asia
Shows: 15
  1. Yep. Walk On is on a list of songs never to be played again.
  2. Originally posted by ddarroch:So what game are we playing? Guessing a likely setlist, or dreaming up fun setlists that will never happen? What's likely to happen I suppose is a regurgitation of the Joshua Tree tour, with a changed encore of i+e/e+i songs. But that's no fun!

    Here's my first take, which will NEVER, EVER happen

    Idea 1. A brief description. Oceania/Asia has missed tours of the last 3 albums. How do we condense this material into one night? We don't! We do it over two seperate nights. We finally get out Innocence & Experience nights.

    As U2 hasn't visited these shores for a long time, they bless us with long shows, at least 25 songs.

    Innocence + The Joshua Tree
    1. Sunday Bloody Sunday
    2. New Year's Day
    3. A Sort Of Homecoming
    4. Where the Streets Have No Name
    5. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
    6. With or Without You
    7. Bullet the Blue Sky
    8. Running To Stand Still
    9. Red Hill Mining Town
    10. In God's Country
    11. Trip Through Your Wires
    12. One Tree Hill
    13. Exit
    14. Mothers Of The Disappeared

    *** Intermission (Van Diemen's Land) ***

    15. God Part II
    16. Desire
    17. Staring at the Sun
    18. Every Breaking Wave
    19. One

    21. Raised By Wolves
    22. Until the End of the World

    ****** Encore ******

    23. All I Want Is You
    24. Bad
    25. The Little Things That Give You Away

    24. Gone
    25. Love Is Bigger Than Anything in Its Way

    Just about all of these songs have been played over the last few years. So the band & techs should be across them. The video production is done. Of course they'd need to be changes in the production, for all of the arena songs. But it's a good start, & means maybe there's a chance of more variation between nights. Lots of variation (other than the JT)!

    On the JT30 tour, one reason that the show started with the 'old school' opening (with no video production), was the sunset times of the shows. In the northern latitudes sunset times would have been around 9pm. So a few songs had to have been played before we got to appreciate the spectacular "Streets". This year, at all shows, sunset times will be before 8pm. This gives the band the option to open the show with the Joshua Tree, if they so wish. Without compromising the screen visuals.

    Pride takes a well earned rest. As does Elevation, City of Blinding Lights, Even Better Than The Real Thing & Ultraviolet (Light My Way).

    Problems. Not all cities get two shows. People will complain they missed out on their preferred night (Is prefer the Experience night I think). B-stage wouldn't get any real action until the second set on the Experience night. Yeah, they've played nearly all of these songs quite recently, but Bono still can't remember this many songs It's all too complicated, for so few shows. But it's an interesting idea (that won't happen)
    My guess, with the exception maybe the intermission/encore, they keep it much the same as TJT30... Start with pre-TJT, then TJT in full... then after intermission (or encore, if ya wanna call it that) for the post-TJT era is where they may mix it up a little with more from SOI/SOE...

    Pride definitely won't get a break, and COBL doubtful... maybe, just maybe EBTTRT and UV do...

    That's how I'm calling it.

    Agree that there's a 99.9999999999% chance it won't happen. Hence why I said it "will NEVER, EVER happen". Not a prediction, just a dream.

    I think it's a great tune, although I'm not sure Bono could sing this (or Heartland) very well now. This song needs power!

    If we're getting deep cuts though, I think this song is as good as any for the audience! Rattle and Hum is U2's highest selling album in Australia after all.
  10. Don't worry, that one will rotate with LNOE!
  11. Nice!!
