That was a very cool setlist, Wilki. I saw them here in Monterrey, Mexico on February 12th and they seemed to have some lighting problems at the beginning. The screen didn't turn on until City of Blinding Lights, which was the 5th or 6th track. They opened with Vertigo (they closed the show with Vertigo aswell), then I Will Follow, I still haven't found what I'm looking for and The Electric Co. I know many of the hardcore fans enjoyed the addition of the Boy album tracks, but I would have prefered a setlist like the one they played in Mexico City some days later, including Zoo Station and The Fly, ass kicking tunes from Achtung Baby. Anyway, the show was very cool! :)
I saw the Rolling Stones a couple of days ago and it was a good show aswell, but I knew more tracks from Alejandra Guzman, the female singer who opened the show for them, haha :).

Hey! I attended that U2 gig in San Diego! I went home to California in a huff as I was POed because I didn't think I could get tickets to see Q+PR at Brixton.
Bono spent the day between the two San Diego shows walking around Ocean Beach mingling with the locals. The beach area was swarming, quite literally, with butterflies that day, making me think of what Brian wrote for Freddie in "The Show Must Go On."
It was a great show even WITH the civics lesson. Had tickets to see U2 again in October here in Washington, DC, but it clashed with one of the Q+PR gigs, LA, I think. I gave my U2 tickets to the same friend I gave my Stones tickets when their gig clashed with the Q+PR Aruba gig. I have my priorities.
BTW, U2 opening with "City of Blinding Lights" going right into "Vertigo" was brilliant.

It was absolutely fantastic with the band in great shape.
nice set! where was this at? so i can download the lossless boot off U2 torrents.thanks!
River Plate Stadium, Buenos Aires. March 1st and 2nd.
Please tell me where I can find U2 lossless bootlegs.
In eMule there are some mp3s from the radio broadcasts and also videos (including a DVD) from the partial TV broadcast of the 2nd show.
I recorded the first show on Hi-MD, but the sound it is mono sometimes due to heavy shaking.

does anyone realize how weak Bono's voice really is??He uses every trick in the book to get thru a show.also how bad was duran duran in london-they kept the camera far from simon so they could audio overdubb the whole F'ing show!Paul im sorry-you are great!!!

Go to www.u2torrents.com
Just like dimeadozen.org, but only U2.
You've got a point Thanks. I can't stand the speeches bono does. It's so nauseating- I think he does it before One to bore people so they won't notice his bad guitar playing.
I'd rather listen his speeches than him trying to do a falsetto.
The guy sucks at singing high as much as George Lucas sucks at writing dialogue on a screenplay.
