@JeffReinhart77 I should fix the view option to have snippets below the setlist. Keeps the main sets more clear :) Matt

 via U2gigs (Matt) in reply to JeffReinhart77

@JeffReinhart77 I think snippets are something that can make a show special. So we’ve decided to include them long ago. Matt.

 via U2gigs (Matt) in reply to JeffReinhart77

@JeffReinhart77 Well both songs were referenced. You’re not going to dissuade us from noting every other song that gets a nod. ;)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to JeffReinhart77

Thanks everybody for following our coverage today. Still pleased Cedarwood Road debuted live. This is Ax signing off.

 via Twitter Web Client

@feedu2000 @U2start Yep. I cannot wait to hear a full electric version live. It should be a concert highlight.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to feedu2000

U2 Great night with @jowhiley for @BBCRadio2 http://t.co/yx1BBQxdxF

Matt here. Just checked the recording and Jo mentioned the Whiskey had arrived during the Walk The Line part. Larry got a Whiskey.

 via U2gigs (Matt)

Anyway, that’s the end of #U2’s performance on Jo Whiley’s show. Give me a few minutes to polish up our mainpage report.

 via Twitter Web Client

OK, followers disagree whether the I Walk the Line snip was Larry or Bono imitating Cash. Either way, glad I didn’t hallucinate the snippet!

 via Twitter Web Client

juancft @u2gigs yes Larry snippet I Walk The Line :)

 via TweetDeck (retweeted on 11:02 PM, Oct 15th, 2014  via Twitter Web Client)

@adammajorcsik Ooh gotcha. Stuck was done full band in Australia in 2006. I had the misfortune to witness it.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to adammajorcsik

Fool to Cry snippet in Stuck in a Moment. And was I hallucinating or did somebody (maybe Larry?) snippet I Walk the Line beforehand?

 via Twitter Web Client

@adammajorcsik The full band played The Miracle at the Apple launch.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to adammajorcsik

Fifth song by #U2 today: Stuck in a Moment. Only decided to do it an hour or so ago.

 via Twitter Web Client

Cash’s I Walk the Line being broadcast now. U2 did it once in 1987 y’know: http://www.u2gigs.com/sh…

 via Twitter Web Client

Whiley tries to get out of them WHEN tour will be. “We’re buying new luggage in the spring” is about all she gets.

 via Twitter Web Client

Tour: Edge says “not sure the precise dates” but next year. Bono on venues: “pubs”. Edge, seriously: arenas (Bono calls them “mega pubs”).

 via Twitter Web Client

@smili72 I can’t wait to hear Cedarwood in its proper electric form. Should be blistering - and put any acoustic performance in the shade.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to smili72

Larry present in Song for Someone from the get go. Huzzah! Surprised he didn’t take a prominent role in Cedarwood…

 via Twitter Web Client

Before Song for Someone, Jo Whiley said there were “a couple more songs to come”. I bet fifth will be an old classic.

 via Twitter Web Client

Fourth song by #U2 today: Song for Someone, live debut!

 via Twitter Web Client

@thefly202005 Yeah it’s weird how little Adam and Larry seem to be doing…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to thefly202005

U2tour String quintet will join the band next week in Germany too #u2 #bbc

 via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 10:30 PM, Oct 15th, 2014  via Twitter Web Client)

The string section are joining in again for Cedarwood Road. A very welcome contribution.

 via Twitter Web Client

Cedarwood Road is my favourite song on SOI so I’m stoked U2 are doing it live.

 via Twitter Web Client

Third song of the day by #U2: live debut of Cedarwood Road!

 via Twitter Web Client

Except for their families, “there is nothing more important to us than this band” - Bono.

 via Twitter Web Client

KevinMFeeney @u2gigs Walk On is the only single from 2000s era not to be played on the promo tour for its album

 via Twitter Web Client (retweeted on 10:01 PM, Oct 15th, 2014  via Twitter Web Client)

@KevinMFeeney Yep, absolutely. Though I suppose they did do Miracle Drug on HTDAAB promo tour…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

KevinMFeeney @u2gigs Past suggests that any other songs they play will be very strong contenders to be singles

 via Twitter Web Client (retweeted on 10:00 PM, Oct 15th, 2014  via Twitter Web Client)

Ooh, Jo Whiley promises to ask #U2 about live gigs later in today’s show.

 via Twitter Web Client

Now the big question is what will U2 play next. Will they debut live a song from SOI, or will it be an old track?

 via Twitter Web Client

Need to catch up on what #U2 have done today? I’ve just posted an article on our mainpage: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar…

 via Twitter Web Client

What? Drums? Yes, Larry is there and playing in EBW!

 via Twitter Web Client

EBW has Edge on piano - and there’s the string quintet in the studio, adding some nice touches!

 via Twitter Web Client

@dmacirish Me too, absolutely. Would love some full band, electric performances.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to dmacirish

@beckythecyclist Oh sorry, he chose to play the studio version of it, not sing it himself. I assume the show will be on the BBC site after.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to beckythecyclist

Second live song by #U2: Every Breaking Wave.

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono chose to play “Take Me to Church” by #Hozier, describing the song as “a miracle”.

 via Twitter Web Client

Haha, U2 jealous of Brian Eno getting to appear on Father Ted.

 via Twitter Web Client

Larry and Adam may be there but The Miracle sounds distinctly like just Bono and Edge!

 via Twitter Web Client

First by #U2 is The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone).

 via Twitter Web Client

If you are just tuning in, listen live to #U2 on BBC Radio 2 here. About to perform: http://www.bbc.co.uk/rad…

 via Twitter Web Client

Larry Mullen in the building! All of #U2 here to play live, first performance in a couple of minutes.

 via Twitter Web Client

Here’s Adam, joining Bono and Edge first time on the promo tour! We still await Larry.

 via Twitter Web Client

U2 asked when was first time they were at Maida Vale Studios. It was 1980-09-22: http://www.u2gigs.com/sh…

 via Twitter Web Client

u2_se @u2gigs haha! We tweeted almost identical infornation in our respective languages. Great minds and all that. :-)

 via Twitter for Android (retweeted on 9:24 PM, Oct 15th, 2014  via Twitter Web Client)

Edge is the only timely member of the band, Larry accused of being least punctual band member.

 via Twitter Web Client

Remember, #U2 used to cover Glad to See You Go in their early days: http://www.u2gigs.com/Gl…

 via Twitter Web Client

Tonight #U2 have been asked to choose some of the show’s music. First: Ramones, “Glad to See You Go”.

 via Twitter Web Client

Jo Whiley just confirmed FULL BAND and “many more songs” than 1 or 2.

 via Twitter Web Client

A string quintet in the studio too!

 via Twitter Web Client

Jo Whiley says there is a drumkit in studio - full band time finally?!

 via Twitter Web Client

@llootsteen39 I didn’t miss these early starts (well I got up for that Italy TV spot too)! At least US shows are during the day Aussie time.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to llootsteen39

Studio EBTTRT playing to start the show. And this is Ax, coming to you bright and early from Melbourne at 6am. There’s a 6 AM now?!

 via Twitter Web Client

Here we go folks! #U2 on Jo Whiley starting now. Listen live here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/rad…

 via Twitter Web Client

PS Whiley’s show at 8pm local time. We will report U2’s set as it happens. Earlier reports suggested 3 new songs, 1 old.

 via Twitter Web Client

Today #U2 on Jo Whiley’s show on BBC Radio 2. Third gig of SOI promo tour, will we finally get full band?

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono interview on NPR World Cafe. No live performance despite promo blurb (3 SOI studio versions featured): http://www.npr.org/blogs…
