Here is a clip. Take a look for yourself:

U2 Vancouver

And here is a fresh review: [www.aftonbladet.se]

Markus Larsson strikes again...

Yeah, he's the one! But U2 got one more plus sign than the Stones... I kind of envy Markus though. What a job - going to concerts for a living.
Travel and see the world on someone else's account. Not so bad, I guess... Another review by the way:

Markus Larsson is the biggest loser among the swedish so called music journalists. Don´t even mention his name thank you.

I wouldn't say that, Jeppe. He's not a big Rolling Stones fan, that's for sure though.

The new U2 video screen looks a bit innovative though. Something for the Stones?

He knows nothing about blues and/or rockmusic, fact. That pathetic newspaper Aftonbladet should only let him write about indiepop and other meaningless music.

Setlist:

The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone)
Out of Control
(with 'Do You Remember Rock 'n' Roll Radio?' snippet)
Vertigo
(with 'God Save The Queen' snippet)
I Will Follow

I guess U2 will be the last surviving rock dinosaur. I can't see any younger rock and roll act waiting to take their place.

I have seen them about 10 times but i think i will pass this time around. To much hallelujah bla bla bla from Bono these days.

I will go for Stones in the US and DG at RAH this autumn instead.

Nice stelist !!!

He was not wounded (apparently) but The Edge was too close to the edge yesterday night :

He surely did come too close to the edge there. It's easy to understand why he got his nickname!

Ouch!! I hope he's all right?

Why do U2 have "World Premiere" while the Stones have "Opening Night"?

Because it's a world tour, perhaps?

GREAT SET-LIST

Got to chime in on the set list. See how they spread out the new songs, 8 of them and the one is the first song! Invisible is also new, just not on the CD. Also I like how they pay homage to other famous tunes. Very nice.

Wow! Love Cedarwood Road and the Bowie clip at 2.14.

I'm kind of think its a pretty "blah" setlist. New songs mixed in with the warhorses they play literally every tour. Nothing here that makes me want to rush out and buy tickets.

I hope the GUITAR is OK. Apparently Edge is fine (https://instagram.com/p/2sbd08gF3D/) but that poor Strat appeared took a HARD blow to the neck/headstock.

Peace,

The neck and the headstock didn't actually take any blow. Maybe the body and even that maybe fell on The Edge. [www.youtube.com]

It surely was no worse for the Strat that the blow Keith's tele got at Hampton in 81. Edge could hurt himself easily, but luckily he probably didn't.

Fantastic setlist indeed! MEZ

First 10 songs (at least it say so)

video: [www.youtube.com]

All the Best!

I would have went either last night or tonight but when tickets went on sale, good seats were over $300 so I decided to pass. Not a huge fan but my favorite song is One, so I would have been disappointed that they didn't play it last night.

I keep hoping they'll play Red Hill Mining Town

"One" is gonna be back in the setlist before long. They are crazy not to play it.

Agree, it's one of their best tunes, imo.

peace

i was a huge fan of u2 many years ago and this set list is crap.

too many songs like

sweetest thing and desire and not enough of the real great early 1980,s stuff that made u2 the band that they became.

heres my fantasy u2 setlist.

11 o clock tick tock
a day without me
out of control
i will follow
the electric company
gloria
tomorrow
rejoice
jerusalem
two hearts beat as one
surrender
sunday bloody sunday
new years day
like a song
pride
wire
bad
the unforgettable fire
silver and gold
angel of harlem
lady with the spinning head
beautiful day
still havent found what im looking for
with or without you
mothers of the dissapeared
