    That performance of Bad and then Gloria/People have the power is amazing.

    It's bizzare that the HBO show last night hasn't found it's way online in full yet. Any word if it will be out on DVD/Bluray for Christmas?

    the leaked version showed up quite quick but this one has not yet

    The clip innuendo posted is from the HBO broadcast

    The leaked show from the 11th November is on Youtube, but I havent seen last nights broadcast yet.

    Where is it out? Can only find clips on youtube and nothing on the usual sites.

    The 1080p one from Nov 11th on youtube is excellent quality. I just ripped it and am watching it on my TV now. Here it is. Hopefully the DVD will have highlights from all the filmed shows as the setlist wasn't great last night. Sunday's setlist was better for example.

    Doe the transmission go mental for Cederwood and Iris on the 11th broadcast you are watching? The copy I have does, 2 of my favourite songs

    Yeah it's the same. A real shame as the quality is excellent apart from this.

    Sunday Nights was leaked also.Great show in full 1080p 30GB tho to download

    Why is it such a huge file size? I ripped the 1080p from youtube and it was only 4.5GB. Really good quality too.

    I still can't believe there are no downloads of the gig last night. There are several of the leaked gigs but none of the gig broadcast to millions of people on HBO? Was it not possible to record it from HBO or something? Very odd.

    yeah its fairly odd quite annoying tbh. hopefully it might get a dvd release with the planned tour documentary. sure we have it on rte on christmas day


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭innuendo141


    I see a couple of sources online now from the other night. Here's the one I found, has this setlist:

    [01] The Miracle (of Joey Ramone)
    [02] Out of Control
    [03] Vertigo
    [04] I Will Follow (with 'Mother' Snippet)
    [05] Iris (Hold Me Close)
    [06] Cedarwood Road
    [07] Song for Someone
    [08] Sunday Bloody Sunday
    [09] Raised by Wolves (with 'Psalm 23' Snippet)
    [10] Until the End of the World (with 'Love And Peace Or Else', 'Words' and 'The Divine Image' Snippets)
    [11] Invisible
    [12] Even Better Than the Real Thing (with 'Break On Through' Snippet)
    [13] Mysterious Ways (with 'Fashion' and 'Burning Down The House' Snippets)
    [14] Elevation
    [15] Ordinary Love
    [16] Every Breaking Wave
    [17] October
    [18] Bullet the Blue Sky (with 'Zooropa', 'Ode To Joy', 'America' and '19' Snippets)
    [19] Zooropa
    [20] Where the Streets Have No Name(with 'California (There Is No End To Love)' snippet)
    [21] Pride (In The Name Of Love)
    [22] With or Without You
    [23] City of Blinding Lights (with 'Ne Me Quitte Pas' Snippet)
    [24] Beautiful Day
    [25] One (with 'Mother And Child Reunion' and 'Invisible' Snippets)
    [26] Bad (with Patti Smith's 'Gloria' Snippet)
    [27] People Have the Power (Patti Smith Cover) (with Patti Smith)

    Seems like they opted for Patti instead of EODM for the broadcast

    EDIT: Hang on, this is Sunday. Jasus, how are all these broadcast/leaked?

    a lot of the copys have sycing problems or are very large in size.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,097 ✭✭✭✭Seve OB


    Looks like a class arena, just watched the pati smith duet, gonna download the show and hook it up to the TV me thinks :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,752 ✭✭✭johnpatrick81


    The show just works so much better in a proper arena. I felt it lost a lot of its impact in the 3Arena. Looking forward to watching the Christmas day showing:)

    I got the impression from the Joe O'Herlihey interview on Dave Fanning that he felt the same. Was going to hold off watching it until Xmas day but the temptation proved too much...

    I agree. The only thing the point had going for it was having the e stage in the center.

    Feel lucky that I got to see the full setup over in the dome


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,097 ✭✭✭✭Seve OB


    How in the name of jaysus did yer man get onto the stage at the end of One.... Mad, but fair play to Bono, I wonder did he watch the Rugby Final? It kind of reminded me of Sonny Bill


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,609 ✭✭✭irishgirl19

    Will it be shown on irish tv?

    Its odd how a normal sized file hasnt shown up yet without issues? I got one thats just under 2 gigs I think and the sound goes out of sync very close to the start. This was from the Sunday night show.

    From quick listens I think the gig on the 11th of November sounds a bit better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,582 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    I definitely watch the show on Christmas Night on RTE2. It will be fantastic.

    Ice if you use it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,582 ✭✭✭dublinman1990


    I did watch it earlier on RTE. Loved the whole thing from start to finish.

    I will buy the Blu-ray or DVD when it's eventually out in the music stores or on Amazon.

    Great show. Only disappointment is that they cut the second song which was a highlight of the tour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,456 ✭✭✭Shedite27


    The bit with the dancers, in the TV show they got them all up, saying these are all the dancers that joined us on stage. Kinda seemed to suggest that they were either (a) fanatical supporters that had followed them around the world or (b) paid dancers.

    Any insight?

    Fanatical supporters that won some competition I think. I recognised the bird with the devil horns from the leaked show in November and the black lad dressed in the shiny builders outfit has seen them a ridiculous amount of times, and has his own documentary on Youtube. Basically people with money to burn.

    Overall the show reminded me of everything I don't like about U2 (well Bono) and everything I do love about U2. A very conflicted, and highly enjoyable watch it has to be said.

    Can't wait to catch them live again in the flesh

    the guy with the youtube movie is a teacher, dj and part time musician. hes prob a secret millionaire or something. i have respect for this fans though because they dont go to these shows to get drunk, go there to say they were there etc like many irish gig goers. Bands should repay some of there mega super fans eg free tickets to a show of there choice etc

    there was a planned documentary about the tour being made but think it was shelved after the paris attacks

    I believe the dancer people were all invited back for the Paris concert ,as they had appeared at other gigs ,they were given free trips by U2.

    I was talking to one of the people in Dublin that was in the Paris broadcast,he was dressed up as Mr Mc Phisto.
    Nice chap but a bit crazy.

    Christ, that serenade between Bono and the muscle top wearing tattooed dude was fcuking creepy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,087 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    Great piece recording etc. (watching it on BBC)

    But as it is so rehearsed - it doesn't come across as well as a TV/DVD show. As most their other tours did >

    Was at gig twice and loved it , but wonder how this is coming across - was watching it with a young lad who wouldn't know them, he said good show - but no connection with crowd ?

    I say that as a big fan.

    It is also an age thing - crowd and band 50s etc, Bono singing well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,752 ✭✭✭johnpatrick81


    I thought it was great except for the VIP spoilt obsessed fanatics on stage(3rd time this tour alone for some). People pay to see U2, and/or a special guest like Bruce or Noel. This lot had no place on the stage. Essentially we lost a cracking song like Gloria or OOC and had a whole song of these twits prancing about on stage.

    As someone mentioned, there was some great, and some terrible moments.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 726 ✭✭✭weadick

    Yeah that bit was really weird and you could tell that the crowd were looking on dumbfounded too. Not as bad as the guy in Glasgow who just stood there gawking at Bono but still pretty bad.

    Agreed ,I do not like these exhibitionist stage people ,most of them are not the full bob.
    I much preferred it when the band used to bring down to earth people up on stage.
    That girl in Paris with all the vile tattoos ,I nearly got sick looking at her.
    Christ, that serenade between Bono and the muscle top wearing tattooed dude was fcuking creepy!

    What the hell was that about? :confused:
    Initially I thought it was some stage invader but it was obviously planned but it was utter nonsense ,himself and Bono were like two drunks after a night out .

    Disagree you should have stopped at people pay to see U2.

    The gig is advertised as U2 not U2 possibly featuring Noel G,Bruce S,Patti Smith etc. and Eagles of Death Metal fall in that bracket also. Noel G with U2 doing the Beatles was well cringe tbh.

    Your post is very opinionated not everyone likes Bruce Springsteen, Noel Gallagher or even U2 that matter ya know.

    My post is very opinionated?:D I thought that was the idea:pac:

    I was speaking for me, not for everyone. But exactly, you hit the nail on the head. I would be willing to give a proper musician a pass, not some amateur wannabe celeb desperados. It was a massive cringe moment IN MY OPINION.

    This was a disappointment and it was done for production reasons as far I know. The second track was always a 'rotational' song (Gloria/ElectricCo/Out of Control).

    These are fanatics. Basically the same group of people travel around to a large number of the shows all over EU/USA. They que up all day and go straight to the front row of e-stage which is where Bono would normally invite someone up. It's pretty desperate in my opinion - I was standing in Belfast 2 and Dublin 2 and I saw saw that Devil horn girl standing in exactly the same place at both concerts.

    The panti bliss thing in Dublin was a bit much from the videos I saw. Who payed 200 Euro to see Bono kiss and bow to a drag queen

    Hi all

    Posted this in one of the other music forums, probably better here.

    I'm looking for a ticket stub for the Friday night gig. Third gig I think it was.

    Have stubs for every gig I was ever at framed and missed out on this one as the missus went ticketless!

    Anyone still feeling the Christmas spirit please pm me...

    Thanks

    Zero interest in purchasing this.Recorded it at Christmas and/or can watch it on YouTube...Surely 99% of fans would prefer an official release on CD/ vinyl.

    Yeah the I+E tour is the only one U2 have done since Zoo where I'd actually love a CD of the concert itself.

    theres plenty of fan recorded bootlegs around. Some have almost as good quality as an offical recording
