You choose Walk On above Love Is Blindness? 😱 For me LIB was the best closer ever. 40 is second. One was the worst closer

You could make the case though that they shouldn’t play more than a couple of new songs at any tour as they end up dropping big hitters to accommodate the new songs. As much as on fan sites we generally don’t want to hear a greatest hits set I think a true hits/best of set would be the most crowd pleasing so I’m glad they don’t cater to people too much and do things like finish gigs with little things or 13(there is a light) rather than do the predictable. Little things is one of the best closers they’ve done that I’ve personally witnessed, for my taste anyway, behind only walk on and 40. (Well technically little things wasn’t the closer at Twickenham, don’t look back in anger was but I would have walked out more than happy after little things).

Why restrict it to 22,23 songs they could easily play 30 songs per night especially as the touring
schedule isn’t as extensive as past tours , GnR can do 35 songs some nights and so does Paul McCartney and he's 80 , yes you can't keep everyone happy no matter what but they've such an extensive back catalogue that playing an extra 7 or 8 songs would really benefit the gig ,but they need to get away from the concept of a "Broadway Show " which is the approach they've taken to concerts since Zoo Tv which doesn't allow much room for spontaneity or improvisation .

Originally posted by LostSailor:I was at the JT 17 show in Seattle and IWF as a spontaneous closer was so refreshing. I left the stadium on a high wanting more U2! Seattle may have been the best JT 17 show... A Sort of Homecomimg, Little Things, Eddie Vedder singing Mother's of the Disappeared, and the IWF mentioned above. That was a great May Sunday night!

Still among the best moments of my entire life ✅
And still the most disappointing U2 show overall from the 11 I've seen
But it's good to remember it anyway ☘️
