'Adding more?'

25 Mar 2010659
Speaking to Dave Fanning of Irelands's 2FM a few weeks back, Edge said the band had begun thinking about this year's shows. Dave mentioned that in 2009 there was always five or six songs from No Line on the Horizon: 'Would you keep that many?

'We were talking about adding more,' said Edge, in a decidedly enigmatic tone. 'Changing out some of the songs...'

And that was it, the subject was closed, he was giving nothing else away. But we can dream can't we ? So here's the thing: if you could add in a song from 'No Line' which wasn't a regular in the set last year ... what would it be?

And while you're musing on that one, what song from any earlier album, which didn't feature in 2009, would you love to hear in the mix this time around ?

Answers in the box below please. One different track from No Line, one other track from any earlier album. (And why, if you have the time...)

(If your memory needs refreshing on the songs the band were performing last year, check the 2009 dates and click on any city to see the set list.)

And... the song Must be:
BAD... by far one of the best songs ever. When mixed with Where The Streets have No Name, you know guys: It is the best classic U2 =) Hope you support it! Kind Regards, M.

new songs in 2010
Stand Up Comedy as the opening song - while I love the entire new album, this song always gets turned up in my car! I'd love to see them revisit A Sort of Homecoming or even break out Fast Cars.

Fez would be amazing to hear live and would love to hear Walk on live as well. The Edge's guitar is so powerful in Walk on that it gives me goose bumps everytime I hear it. I will be at the June 3rd show in Salt Lake City, Ut. Can't wait!

Set List Changes
I would remove Breathe and add Stand Up Comedy. I would also remove In A Little While & Stuck In a Moment and add One Tree Hill and Bad.

Romantic Songs
At U2's 360° Tour 2010, I'd like to hear some Romantic Songs like "Sweetest Thing"&"All I Want Is You". From HTDAAB: "Original Of The Species". From NLOTH: "Crazy Tonight" (Single Version). I love "40" at the end of the Show. See You in Rome...

Add: Stand Up Comedy!!!!!
Loved the show, but kept waiting for Stand Up!!!!!! Another song I want to hear again is 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For' I met the Edge in Milwaukee last tour and told him how God used that song to wake me from a coma! I think he changed the chords of one song so they would play it for me, maybe not, but I like to believe it!~ Jen

Fez Being Born and One Tree Hill
Fez is a great chance for Bono to let his voice soar live and One Tree Hill is an all-time classic that every true U2 fan knows.

Add some more
Whatever they add-don´t take away Ultraviolet. Stand up comedy would be my choice from NLOTH. Would be great to hear The Fly or Love Rescue Me.

Wish List
Stand Up Comedy was a disappointing omission from the first leg and I would like to see it added. As for an older one... hmm so many to choose from. How aboout Trip Through Your Wires?

Some Possible Songs For Setlist
"Fez Being Born" would be nice to hear live, "Bullet The Blue Sky", "The Fly", or even "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" - (Never been played live since the Popmart Tour) would be a very interesting song to hear this summer! Even one or two of these songs would be nice to hear on the 360 Tour.

I will follow !!!
Last year it was the first time i had the chance to assist to a U2 concert ! That was great, but i dreamt to see them playing "I will follow"... I really hope i will hear this great song in 2010 in paris. And to balance with this, I would really enjoy "White as snow" which is for me one of the best songs of "No line..." !!! But anyway, i'm sure i will enjoy the show even if these 2 songs are not in the set !

The Best Idea!! Please read U2!
Beautiful Day (David Holmes Remix) with some ad lib lyrics of A Forest/The Cure. To top it off, Electrical Storm!! I love the 360 Tour!!! See you in East Lansing!!

FEZ FEZ FEZ
Why Fez has not been a regular concert staple, I don't know. I can't imagine a better song for opening an encore. Since Bono has described the 360 show as existing in two acts, with an intermission ("I'll Go Crazy") and a coda (the final encore) I think Fez would fit in perfectly at the beginning of the FIRST encore... Sonically, lyrically, all that... Drop With Or Without you in favor of an acoustic number (perhaps 'The First Time" since the final encore is meant to be "U2 at their most raw and vulnerable?") and open the first encore with Fez rather than "One." All that being said, DO WHAT YOU WANT out there, and have fun.

my picks
I think Stand Up Comedy would be awesome, its such a great song! Love and Peace or Else would be great to hear again. Out of Control would be great too:)

adding songs
From "No Line" Fez or for a slower moment--Cedars of Lebanon (let edge use that voice :)--I think it's him on back-up. As a 25 year+ fan and U2 concertgoer (1st show: Thursday March 7, 1985--Cow Palace San Francisco California USA--ticket still in hand) this goes back a ways---but I would love to see the band start ending their shows with "40" again. If not 40 than "I Will Follow" somewhere in the set list. I saw this tour twice in Dublin (yes--all the way from California USA just for U2) and then the Las Vegas show---thanks to the U2 team for some great memories.

mr_mojo
Stand Up Comedy in....
Bring in Stand Up Comedy.............and play Bad into Streets - that is one of the great U2 concert experiences and arguably one of the best live rock show song combinations ever!

Adding Songs
Should open the concert with Magnificent. Add FEZ (Omg it would be epic!) Add 11'O Clock Tick Tock (Bring it BACK!) Best Song Ever. Use Silver Lining lyrics tho :D Long Live the Trinitarium
colms
11 o'clock tick tock/get on your boots
from the back catalogue def one of the best live tunes lots of improv has worked with that one. Yeh get on your boots was there but the remix version i just heard from artificial horizon could be amazing live!!!!

FEZ LEMON BAD ELACRICAL STORM
The song to add from NLOTH for me would be FEZ and a song from a previous album… I can’t pick just one…but I would definitely die happy If I see and hear LEMON live. I love this song more than my life, I swear!!! ACROBAT would also be so amazing live – I can hear it in my head - IF YOU CAN DREAM SO DREAM OUT LOUD… Same goes for LADY WITH THE SPINNING HEAD, I wanna hear Bono sing this one live, LAST NIGHT ON EARTH, THE FLY (it will be so cool),DISCOTEQUE, WHO’S GONNA RIDE YOUR WILD HORSES , ELECTRICAL STORM or GROUND BENEATH HER FEET and IF YOU WEAR THAT VELVET DRESS (would be such a treat…that song is so sexy…) and BULLET THE BLUE SKY’s live performances usually sound so raw … Please, please, please KEEP and make the following everynighters on the set list: ULTRAVIOLET (that song live broke my f@#*ing heart , I can never keep a straight face while I’m listening to it …I cry like an actress  , no seriously I do, I cry my eyes out and I shiver), BAD, the remix of CRAZY, OUTSTANDING !!! UNKNOWN CALLER is a one in a million song, UNTIL THE END OF THE WORD, STAY, YOUR BLUE ROOM (if you decide to make it a regular, it’s an amazing song) , MAGNIFICENT, NO LINE ON THE HORIZON, CITY , VERTIGO, BEAUTIFUL DAY, ELEVATION, BREATH( that song is like an adrenalin shot/kick in the a@#), WALK ON, THE UNFORGETABLE FIRE, NEW YEAR’S DAY The ones I can live WITHOUT: I still haven’t found what I’m looking for, Where the streets have no name.

Song s for the New Tour
Please add White as Snow, it's a great ballad. For previous songs how about : In God's Country, All I Want is You, or Gloria. Anxious to see you in Denver.
