The U2 warm up threads

[Langdale Wolf]

Or you could leave it open until June 2011 when Bono walks out onto the Pyramid stage..........

[ThomThomDrum]

Yeah, because that'd be as comforting as stapling my scrotum to a a Pamplona-bound bull, slapping it on it's ass and shouting 'run!'.

[Langdale Wolf]

I take it this is still your last glasto so? Soz............

[When Jokers Attack]

Kinda gutted as really wanted to see them

[Wooderson]

Somewhat ironically U2gigs reporting that 'even better than the real thing' was/is tipped to feature at Glasto with a tribute band video alongside U2

"One of the setlist changes may be the return of Even Better Than The Real Thing after a nine year absence. The Australian U2 Show, a (very professional and talented!) U2 tribute band based in Melbourne, Australia, have e-mailed their mailing list subscribers and posted on their website the news that footage of them will be shown on screen when U2 perform at Glastonbury on 25 June 2010. The Aussie U2 Show state specifically that "the footage will appear on screen with U2 during their performance of Even Better Than The Real Thing""

I'd take that for the Big G next year. Interesting that Pride seems to have got the bullet.

[Wooderson]

Hes looking at you Sifi.

Best U2 video on the Internet as far as me and Nal are concerned.

The Edge's "Hows she cuttin' Phil??" is a career highlight.

[Vieuphoria]

if they play Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me i will be so incredibly over the moon

[Wooderson]

I wouldn't stick with that to be honest...that mid set half an hour: Spanish Eyes, Mercy, In A Little While, Miss Sarajevo, City Of Blinding Lights, Vertigo, I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight / Relax (snippet)...Has the potential to lose me and others..

[scudetto_boy]

I'm not a big fan, only know they're hit singles but i think they'd be good live & a crowd pleaser (saw them on Zoo TV Tour and they were really good)

I was looking on over at the U2 forum to see if the nutters are seriously gearing up to take all tickets available, it doesn't seem that there's that much buzz as yet but I did stumble across this interesting piece of info

'U2 to play a real time vitual concert in 2nd Life during the song "Even Better than the Real thing"

linky

looks like Bono is making up for missing out last year and pulling out all the stops, especially with his

When it sells out on Sunday do you think theres a chance of Mick Eavis confirming U2?
