Bono changes post-Bullet schtick to “don’t shoot, I’m a Canadian!… America’s not a country, it’s an idea, and the French invented it!” #U2
@U2Sydney @hjwallace1 @U2BROTHR As an adopted Melburnian, let me say BOOOOOO SYDNEY
No snippet of 19 in Bullet tonight (but Bono is still using the megaphone). Very few snippets at all so far. #U2ieTour #U2

10. Until The End Of The World. There was the usual Psalm 23 snippet at the end of Raised By Wolves. #U2ieTour #U2
@KevinMFeeney However did you guess!
@EveryBrokenWave Yeah fair enough. But one less person to shoot the shit with and keep me entertained when they do Elevation/Stuck!
@sb_wreeldeal @KevinMFeeney Hahaha oh dear. So glad I got electric WGRYWH.
6. Cedarwood Road. More Periscope action. https://www.periscope.tv… #U2ieTour #U2
@EveryBrokenWave Oh no I’ll miss you being around! :(
@KevinMFeeney May 05 was peak of my fandom so oh god I must’ve been unbearable to people around me when they did TEC, An CatDubh, WGRYWH etc
@sb_wreeldeal Thereabouts, yeah.
@EveryBrokenWave Haha, I just looked it up - weird!
U2 |LIVE NOW| Stay Tuned… #U2ieTour #meerkat mrk.tv/1Sc18us
Bono chatting to the crowd: “What a great feeling to be standing here, the four of us with all of you.” Bits of French too. #U2ieTour #U2
Bono’s giving his mid-I Will Follow speech about the importance of surrender. “Who do you surrender to?” #U2ieTour #U2
@_aihsila I’ve spent a loooot of time in the depths of our database over the years!
@KevinMFeeney Nope. Electric Co was dropped after one bad crowd in Monterrey in Feb 06. Lucky I went to Boston May 05 too!
@atu2 I’m chuffed I managed to remember it, thanks to its appearances in UTEOTW on 360.
I hope that whenever #U2 make it to Australia (no solid rumours yet), they keep Electric Co. Hasn’t been done here since Sep 1984! #U2ieTour
On one of the Periscope feeds, somebody just yelled “wow! wow! wow!” Yep, my feelings about Electric Co exactly. #U2ieTour #U2
For those of you who dig Periscope, here’s a couple: https://www.periscope.tv… and https://www.periscope.tv… #U2ieTour #U2
Here’s our mainpage article where we’ll post the full Montreal 1 set as it progresses: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2
1. #U2 have begun - and as usual by now it’s The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone). Need audio? Try here: http://mixlr.com/u2wande… #U2ieTour
@sb_wreeldeal I keep hoping…
@atu2comSherry Here’s a craaaazy guess: Vertigo somewhere in the main set.
@Rlabs19 I hope so! Imagine if there’s more variation it’ll be nights 3-4 though.
Setlist guesses tonight? I figure this show will feature Electric Co, a couple of Rattle & Hum songs, and Still Haven’t Found. #U2 #U2ieTour
@thom2805 Yep, and they manage to communicate more than most bands with vocalists.
Also, last night here in Melbourne I saw an epic gig by Sleepmakeswaves. If you like heavy, evocative instrumentals, do NOT miss them.
Ax here to take you through #U2’s 1st of 4 Montreal shows. Here’s a feed for tonight. #U2ieTour https://twitter.com/u2wa…
