Doing it in reverse is a really kick ass running order. Fuck yeah. Just do what I said above but play Joshua Tree in reverse. 11. Mothers of the Disappeared 10. Exit 09. One Tree Hill 08. Trip Through Your Wire 07. In God's Country 06. Red Hill Mining Town 05. Running to Stand Still 04. Bullet the Blue Sky 03. With or Without You 02. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For 01. Where the Streets Have No Name Playing the the album front to back will not work this album, so your suggestion could work. I think the band have to find a flow for these songs and I hope they use different arrangements, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surreal if you think about it. This tour will have two polar opposites: it will most def kick ass with full Joshua Tree. it will be an anti-Trump filled show and there will be many annoying cringe moments. God I hope not. I'm as liberal as any human being can be, but the current anti-trump climate from artists comes off as inauthentic to me. I don't remember when actors and musicians became so annoying about expressing their opinion, but this election sure brought out the pretensions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Holographic Universe Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 I purchased 3 GA tickets to the NJ show this morning. The prices for seats is fucking astronomical. The prices make the current GNR tour affordable by comparison. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 It took me an hour of trying and bitching on the U2 forum to realize my password is for tomorrow's presale. Fuck. Let's try again tomorrow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I saw U2 on September 9, 1992 on the ZooTV Outdoor Broadcast. I honestly don't ever see them toping that night for me, so I've sat out every tour since. I'm on the fence about attending this tour whenever they get to Michigan.

What tickets are you getting? I'm getting the 4 day pass, that's usually what my buddies and I like to do. This time we might not camp out though, its so much work. Meh to RHCP, they're all right. Funnily enough I've seen them twice now, once at Bonnaroo 2012 and at Lollapalooza 2012. Guess this will be my third time seeing them, and I'm not even really a fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think a huge U2 fan would be at least a decent person, if not a good one. But, this forum does attract a certain type of person at times. I'll be at the Toronto date! I'll be trying for GA.

Powerage5 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I hate U2, but I may hit either Toronto or Cleveland. I know they put on an incredible show, and cheap seats aren't too bad, so this seems like a good tour to check them off and say I saw them.

I want to do MetLife, but with all of the other GN'R shows I'm doing, it's hard to justify, especially if they add a second show because I'm going to want to do both and already plan on doing the second Philly show if they add it. And I can't really buy a ticket now and sell it later if I change my mind, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I am so damn salty about them not coming to Michigan AGAIN. What the fuck. I am liking this idea even more with every passing day and it would guarantee I get to see One Tree Hill live. I already traveled to see them last tour, but they're so damn good I may do it again. Getting all of Joshua Tree makes it so tempting. 6 hours ago, RussTCB said: I saw U2 on September 9, 1992 on the ZooTV Outdoor Broadcast.

Still, I wish you could have seen 360. I still get chills thinking of that show. One of the best concerts I have been to, I'd say top 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 At least with the Nightrain you could accept defeat and buy VIP or settle for some crap seats, but with this there is literally nothing coming up and that includes the usual tricks of refreshing your cache, using the Ticketmaster App instead of the desktop version, etc... I'll try again for general onsale and if nothing happens I'll wait until closer to the show and buy GA off StubHub. If I can get GA for around $280 Canadian then I'll still have done better than getting crap seats at the back end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
