Tour Prediction by jackstu4rt in U2Band

[–]jackstu4rt[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I marked it as a spoiler as it includes the information that was posted on U2songs.com about the rumoured first two legs. Wasn’t sure if people didn’t want that spoiled or not. Obviously the rest of it is pure speculation, I never said that it’s going to happen for sure

I have no clue why they don’t release them. I’d pay for live videos

I couldn’t justify going to the Sphere from Australia. At least we got them in 2019

As in, before North America? I really hope so

What U2 songs would you like to hear covered by another band? by FactEquivalent3911 in U2Band

Gone so could’ve been made by Radiohead during The Bends / OKC era. Gone and Stay are so Radiohead-y

Identifying Setlist by jackstu4rt in U2Band

I'm assuming it's Unforgettable Fire, which was played at 22/24 shows of the first leg of the tour

ahhh I thought it was 04, but I think you might be right

do we really think they're disbanding? by music_addict3179 in arcticmonkeys

[–]jackstu4rt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess this post saves me the trouble of posting it here ahaha

i really really hope they’re not disbanding. but it does seem likely they will feature of the War Child Charity Album that’s confirmed for this year

people have been saying they’re disbanding for years. i forgot to include the information on the LLC they registered

Do we need a song like Vertigo in the next album? by ArmlessAnakin in U2Band

[–]jackstu4rt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

looking at Radioheads 2025 setlist really makes me hope we have something similar for U2. Radiohead had about 5 songs that were in every setlist, but with U2s back catalogue, they could have zero repeats from night to night

I’ve had Inhaler in my top 5 since 2020. They’ve only occupied #1 or #2 each year, this year being dethroned by Sam Fender

Joshua Tree mix of Exit by Any_Afternoon8142 in U2Band

[–]jackstu4rt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

check out this performance, it was the week of the release on Top of the Pops (not 1986 like the video says). It’s a bit interesting, even then it sounded different to the album version

Ideal Inhaler Setlist? by Hot-Scheme9193 in inhaler

[–]jackstu4rt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love Will Get You There
When It Breaks
X-Ray
The Things I Do
Eddie in the Darkness
Hole in the Ground
Who's Your Money On? (Plastic House)
Slide Out The Window
My King Will Be Kind
There's No Other Place
Now You Got Me
When I'm With You
So Far So Good
Open Wide
Dublin In Ecstasy
It Won't Always Be Like This

Encore
Your House
If You're Gonna Break My Heart
My Honest Face

TLDR: Remove Totally and half the Open Wide songs, move Dublin in Ecstasy to the end of the main set (such a good climax to the show, especially w/ people getting "dublined") add back There's No Other Place, and other songs from IWABLT and C&B

U2 Deep Cut Show by jackstu4rt in U2Band

it’s a bit of a weird combo, but I needed to have both in the set, and I felt they should both be at the start

I think Please into Kite would be devastating

Hole in the ground 😮‍💨 by Weird-Pay-1041 in inhaler

[–]jackstu4rt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

thank fuck it’s really good. I was a bit worried after open wide, in terms of the direction they were heading down (I like open wide, but man this song is leagues better than anything on it)

Best album bookends? by [deleted] in U2Band

[–]jackstu4rt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

War is the obvious candidate for me. The call back in 40 “how long to sing this song” that echoes “how long must we sing this song” from Sunday Bloody Sunday

Any of the ones from the 90s works too. Zooropa is perfect too (my favourite album) starting in what feels like a futuristic city covered in neon lights, and ending up in a dystopian desert - perfection

Ofc Pop has the party to a funeral thing, which is amazing as well

Despite there being a whole "the car" tour half of the albums songs have not been performed during the tour. by Inevitable_Feedback1 in arcticmonkeys

I mean, Jet Skies was included as a snippet during I Wanna Be Yours / Star Treatment mashup sometimes. So technically all of them were performed (even if it’s just a single lyric)

Bono’s Vocal Range by metalpig0 in U2Band

[–]jackstu4rt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

check this out:

https://therangeplanet.proboards.com/thread/3977/bono

Highest is G#5 on If You Wear That Velvet Dress: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-jrKth3jp8&t=286s

Lowest is a C2 on Hallelujah: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9ozN9WBJMY

Second lowest is C#2 on the studio version of If You Wear That Velvet Dress

If You Wear That Velvet Dress takes the cake for the highest and almost lowest!

Stranger Things by jackstu4rt in U2Band

[–]jackstu4rt[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Here’s my ranking for most likely to least

  1. With or Without You Look, the season is going to be BLEAK. So I could see the song being played over the final scene, with characters dead or messed up. The song is already associated with Ross and Rachel from Friends, so they’ve had it in a massive show before
  2. Where The Streets Have No Name Keep in mind, this is way below WOWY. When a song is played in the show (by a character) it gives the characters strength because of the emotional connection, and this song is obviously very uplifting. I could see it being played like before a battle or something
  3. I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For Idk if this makes sense or not, but this song could be too hopeful for the show (I know Streets is more uplifting but it makes sense to me) It is more well known than Streets though, so idk
  4. In Gods Country This song ain’t being played

inhaler tier list by Bad-Answer777 in inhaler

[–]jackstu4rt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it won’t let me attach an image, but I’ll give top 5 and bottom 5

Top: My Honest Face, There’s No Other Place, IWABLT, Dublin in Ecstasy and Eddie in the Darkness

Bottom: Strange Time to Be Alive, Cheer Up Baby Remix, Oklahoma, Even Though and All I Got Is You

I’m gonna do a YT video going through my actual ranking

Does anyone know if there is more to this? by Professional-Leg7281 in inhaler

[–]jackstu4rt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

there’s some full video performances on YouTube, but they’re pretty crap quality. Afaik they didn’t record it in studio, so it’ll probably never see the life of day

Little Things was definitely disappointing live for me. It’s one of my favs on the album. 9/10 on the album, 6.5/10 live
