Originally posted by LikeASong:Let's not forget that, while half of the Joshua Tree wasn't what we'd consider "hits", THE REST of the setlist was mostly a greatest hits compilation with a few obscure/unreleased songs scattered around every now and then. Starting with their 4 biggest hits of the pre-Joshua era (SBS > NYD > Bad > Pride) and then the encore consisting mostly of Beautiful Day, Elevation, Vertigo, One, ocasionally I Will Follow? It doesn't get much more mainstream/greatest hits/dad rock than that.
JT30 was the closest they've ever been to playing a Greatest Hits show... if we exclude Glastonbury, that is.
