Today, U2 performed the first of three concerts in Sydney, New South Wales. U2 took the stage at roughly 8:40pm local time and performed a setlist identical to Brisbane's, except with some different snippets. These snippets included the combination of INXS's Never Tear Us Apart and Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart that was rehearsed in Brisbane the night before the first gig of the new leg.
The setlist was:
City Of Blinding Lights Vertigo Can't Stand The Rain (snippet) / Elevation / Can't Get You Out Of My Head (snippet) / Highway To Hell (snippet) Until The End Of The World New Year's Day Beautiful Day / Here Comes The Sun (snippet) Yahweh Walk On Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own / The Black Hills of Dakota (snippet) Love And Peace Or Else Sunday Bloody Sunday / Rock The Casbah (snippet) Bullet The Blue Sky / When Johnny Comes Marching Home (snippet) / The Hands That Built America (snippet) Miss Sarajevo Pride (In The Name Of Love) Where The Streets Have No Name One
Encore(s): Zoo Station The Fly With Or Without You / Never Tear Us Apart (snippet) / Love Will Tear Us Apart (snippet) The Saints Are Coming Angel Of Harlem Kite
