Experience and Innocence tour
Legs (3): Promo tour, Leg 1: North America, Leg 2: Europe
Shows: 79
  1. Why would you wanna go 15+ times to pretty much the same show? 2 maybe 3 i get but 15? You got to be autistic
  2. So do you think we'll get the same Stephen Hawking speech before COBL? The same "I was trying to impress Ali" speech before SFS? "Is Guggi out to play" during Cedarwood Road?

    I was wondering this same thing. I really hope not. We have this thing called the i+e DVD if we want to see the same thing....
  4. Maybe hologram Guggi will appear on stage

    Indeed, sure hope not a repeat button tour. Fingers crossed
  6. Originally posted by cesar_garza01:So, worst case scenario, a typical E+I show will include:
    IWF
    Iris
    SBS
    RBW
    UTEOTW
    Cedarwood Road
    Song for Someone
    BD
    Elevation
    Vertigo
    COBL
    Pride
    One

    That's 13 regular songs in the I+E tour! Not just 4 or 5. That's more than 50% the old I+E show, presumably with the same visuals. You can add Desire if you want to count it as a regular I + E show. That doesn't look good.


    if they do a 24 song set list then

    4 innocence songs
    9 hits
    11 songs for experience + surprises
  7. The madness for me is they aren't playing the best 2 songs off the new album - Little Things / Landlady , yet mediocre stuff like American Soul & Showman are mainstays .
    They need better advice than they are getting

    Yes, most likely because Hawking passed recently. Cedarwood Road they had to play again because it was probably the coolest element from the Innocence tour Bono walking down his street inside the screen. So no surprise there. I have no problem with Song For Someone either but they should not play 13 then. Should be one or the other or tied together somehow.
    The Acrobat thing is overblown to me. It is an OK song on a great album. The only highlight to it would be Edge's solo for me. Now Wild Horses I would not understand being dropped. That seems to work in context of the theme. So I am at a loss why that would appear to be getting dropped (things can change when they rehearse in Tulsa).
    Landlady I doubt was ever in contention for being played. To mellow, would probably be a momentum killer. Red Flag Day should be played, but probably wont. I can see Summer of Love showing up at some point on the B stage. Little Things also should be played. Not sure why they cannot work that in. Close with it like the JT if it kills the momentum of the setlist if played elsewhere.
    Maybe we will be suprised what happens during Tulsa rehearsals. Not optimistic though based on the recent rehearsals.
  9. I don't think the Hawking intro will be there. They seem to be fixated on seguing directly from American Soul
  10. American Soul will be beer / piss break for me . Dreadful song
