  1. Bad wording on my part. I want them to nail it but I doubt they will pull it off. Bono basically needs to be God or Popmart Bono in order to not be perceived as the tosser that most people see him as.

    Fuck what hipster crowds think.


  3. Initially, that's what I thought. But suppose the whole crowd starts booing, god, I don't want to see THAT day

    I'd feel truly bad for our lads.

    Muse + Edge, they cheered their asses off.


  6. Of course they did, but I understand what they are saying Bono isnt the most loved man over the world.
  7. here we go, how many bands get a chance to prove their worth to 5the world over and over, will U2 triumph like 1985 live aid or 2000 irving hall plaza or Slain...or will they fall short like the 2009 Rock and Roll Hall of fame and just about every No Line on the horizon promotional appearance? I can't wait to find out.
    In the meantime they must play the best setlist of all time:
    I will follow
    New years day
    Sunday bloody
    Pride
    Out of control
    Bad
    Streets
    Bullet
    Running to strand
    Still haven't found
    Desire
    All i want is you-
    break-
    The fly
    Mysterious
    Until end of world
    One
    Elevation
    Beautiful day
    vertigo
    City of blinding-
    break-
    Glastonbury
    Kite
    With or without you...
    No one is going to this fest to see the new material - so for just this once they NEED to give the audience what it wants, by the time they get to Pride people will be out of their minds and then hit them with Bad/Streets, wow. Of course the band won't come anywhere close to this type of set nor will they impress me and we will probably have to sit through another 360 set list...but why, why not go for broke?
  8. I wonder if they will play a 360 tour setlist there or a complete new setlist.
  9. I think the set list will be something like this.

    1. Vertigo
    2. Beautiful day
    3. I will Follow
    4. Get On Your Boots
    5. Magnificent
    6. Mysterious Ways
    7. Elevation
    8. New years Day
    9. Until the end of the world
    10. I Still Haven’t Found What I’m looking for
    11. Sweetest thing
    12. Glastonbury
    13. North star
    14. Sometimes You cant make it on your Own
    15. Pride
    16. Sunday Bloody Sunday
    17. Where the Streets have no name
    18. Desire
    19. One
    20. With or Without You

    Pretty Standard with maybe Sweetest Thing as this was a huge hit in the UK in 98
  10. The Glastobury crowd of now is not the same as the old. Less hippies more mobile phone clad teensters. U2 will blow there fekin novelty hats off.
  11. I would love to see costume changes, something to have fun - like The edge in his joshua tree garb or adam in his zoo tv stuff, and larry, well t-shirt and jeans of course, and what if Bono came out in a mullet wig! They could have the fans eating out of their hands and set the standard for big band big concert appearances for a long time... this could be remembered like a Beatles at Shea stadium.

    cause they will play a crap set list when the people will only want the hits...and they will be booed simply because they are not radiohead, the fest goers are there every year and they know what to expect from the best/biggest bands in the world and anything short of that the fans will smell the weakness in the air and they will let their voices be heard...although this must be the most anticipated concert since floyd reuniting for live 8, i think?
