Second Vancouver update, 8 May 2015
Earlier today, U2 rehearsed at the Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver. Later in the evening, the band played a dress rehearsal concert for a small audience of people on a guest list – friends and family of the band. One Interference poster, dabiggestu2fan, reported from the venue for most of the gig until his phone apparently died. Consider the setlist incomplete for now.
1. The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone)
2. Vertigo
3. I Will Follow
4. Iris (Hold Me Close)
5. Cedarwood Road
6. Song For Someone
7. Sunday Bloody Sunday
8. Raised By Wolves
9. Until The End Of The World (followed by a video)
10. Invisible
11. Even Better Than The Real Thing
12. Mysterious Ways
13. Sweetest Thing
14. Every Breaking Wave
15. Bullet The Blue Sky / The Hands That Built America (snippet)
16. The Troubles
17. With Or Without You
18. Beautiful Day
19. Where The Streets Have No Name
Sunday Bloody Sunday was reported as “kind of acoustic”, so it likely sounds similar to the audio clip that leaked recently. Raised By Wolves was preceded by the sound of explosions. Until The End Of The World was followed by a video of some description – it sounds like this was for the band to take an intermission break. Sweetest Thing was performed for the first time in almost fourteen years; it last featured at a U2 concert on 22 August 2001. Every Breaking Wave was reportedly played acoustically, and much like the Vertigo Tour, Bullet The Blue Sky featured a snippet of The Hands That Built America, a song that has been rehearsed over the last few days. Miracle Drug, which has been rehearsed extensively as the song that leads into Where The Streets Have No Name, apparently was not played.
