Re: U2 Discussion

Will be interesting to see what tunes they include from songs of Innocence/Experience and the rest of the catalog in these sets. Would love to see a few songs from the Pop album like Gone, Last Night on Earth, or Staring at the Sun.

    Was originally going to get GA for Nashville after enjoying it in Louisville in June but couldn't find any yesterday so I shelled out for reserves. Will be nice to get a good view of the the middle screen/stage though.

    Oh wow - if you got good view of the screens you definitely shelled out big time. For both St. Louis and Nashville I got seats bordering the $101 tickets. So I should have a pretty decent enough view of the screens.

    For St. Louis I'm like 10 rows up from the floor out by Stage B so that'll be cool when they play out there.

    Very nice. Checked out American Soul on my flight. Interesting to hear little bits of that Glastonbury tune pop up in Volcano and now American Soul

    I like American Soul. But something feels hollow about the production. Same with The Blackout.

    The last time they did that we got Breathe, Moment of Surrender & Ultraviolet. I'm hesitate to think this upcoming one will be that cool. We'll see though.

    Agreed. Not what I was expecting, but different and good.
    Still wonder what they had originally planned on releasing before Trump...

    It's cool how the 3 best songs are all in a group together (Summer of Love through The Showman). Landlady is the only bad song. Couple meh ones, mostly really good ones, and a few amazing ones. Why Red Flag Day wasn't the lead single, idk.

    Loving Red Flag Day more with each listen. Looking forward to seeing some of these tunes live.

    Rankings songs, because why not?!

    13. Landlady. Awful
    12. American Soul. Meh
    11. Love is All We Have Left. Dece
    10. Get Out of Your Own Way. Pretty good! They could have cut it down a bit though.
    9. 13 (There is a Light). I love Song for Someone. This is a cool take.
    8. Love is Bigger Than Anything in its Way. Fucking cool.
    7. The Blackout. Fucking cool.
    6. Lights of Home. Awesome. I'm glad they went with this version instead of St. Peter's Strings.
    5. You're the Best Thing About Me. Fucking awesome. Dance remix was awesome too.
    4. The Little Things That Give You Away. Fucking awesome. I like it better than then live version from a few months ago.
    3. Summer of Love. One of the best U2 songs of the century.
    2. The Showman (Litttle More Better). Samesies. So cheesy while also being so catchy.
    1. Red Flag Day. A top 15 U2 song for me already. Sounds like it could have been on War. Fucking awesome.

    Bono and The Edge were on Stern today. I'm listening on delay. Actually quite a good interview. Both seem like really good guys.

    They're doing Sunday Bloody Sunday acoustic. Really great. Never have been a big U2 fan. Might have to dig in a little bit.

    If you don't have Sirius there are many accounts that usually post the whole show on Youtube a day or so after. Some do it the same day. Just type Howard Stern 12/4/17.

    I think Stay (Faraway, So Close!) is a classic U2 song. Yet somehow, I feel it is underrated these days.

    New single specially for Spotify. https://open.spotify.com/album/3VJRDS3Xv9kAE8NLA9rHX1

    I like the rawer version of Little Things. Their cover of What's Going On isn't needed nor is it a great cover. It's okay. It's U2. Enjoy regardless.

    I was listening to this the other day in the car and wondered the same thing. I wonder if they'll do a big reissue for it's anniversary like they did with Joshua Tree.
