@WTSHNN Woops, you are quite correct. I’ve amended the article!

markpeterboro U2 Setlist data after Montreal night 1 (14 gigs) #setlistgeek #U2ieTour @u2gigs http://t.co/SNoytFKuXc

atu2 Housekeeping note: The “La Vie En Rose” snippet tonight was clearly at the start of With Or Without You, after Beautiful Day had ended.

@thescreendoor @rw90745 I thought I never wanted to hear Bullet ever again after the Vertigo Tour, so I’m surprised how great it sounds now.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to thescreendoor

@rebecca_vincent And keep an eye on @U2start’s website because no doubt there’ll be a bootleg soon. Was during Pride & led to Beautiful Day.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to rebecca_vincent

@rebecca_vincent Think pic of at least 1 was shown on screen. I’m sure there’ll be videos soon on YouTube.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to rebecca_vincent

@rebecca_vincent I can’t recall exactly what he said now, but it was in broader context of imprisonment of Amnesty Int’l members.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to rebecca_vincent

@bjornlodd It plays on the Buddhist idea of being at one with everything natural in the world.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to bjornlodd

@Brad_Schauer Bono, not content with mangling lyrics, is now mangling jokes.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Brad_Schauer

@thescreendoor Bad? No. I’d def take Bullet over One or ISHFWILF, but then I would take five minutes of silence over them. /Ax’s-U2-heresy

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to thescreendoor

I’d just like to close tonight’s coverage by saying thanks to @u2wanderer for an excellent Mixlr stream!

 via Twitter Web Client

@Robbie_J Wow, 18 years ago now, time flies. Can’t believe U2 have only been to Manitoba twice, 1997 and 2011.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Robbie_J

I’ve updated our mainpage article on Montreal 1 with the full set and show info: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

That’s the end of the show. Setlist is here: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

People Have The Power snippet at the end of Still Haven’t Found. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@StanfordSteph @atu2 He used to snip All You Need Is Love in that spot. At any rate it’s ref to California now even if he said it earlier ;)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to StanfordSteph

23. I Still Haven’t Found. Bono: “Why are we still here? Good question! This is song is the answer to that question.” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono dad joke time: “Dalai Lama walks into a kebab shop. Says I’ll have one with everything.” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Streets has its usual “there is no end to love” snippet from California. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Literally none of the setlists from any of U2’s six concerts in Canada on the Boy Tour are known. That’s a shame.

 via Twitter Web Client

Pretty sure it’s 1981-03-09, #U2’s first show in Montreal (for which the setlist is unfortunately unknown). https://twitter.com/U2Po…

 via Twitter Web Client

22. Where The Streets Have No Name #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono: “we need more Canadas in the world”, leading into the snippet of Mother And Child Reunion. You know where this leads… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@k_now_waite Hmm. Perhaps a mangled version! Will have to check this after the show. Thanks!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to k_now_waite

Now it’s time for Bono to speechify - in both French and English. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Over outro to COBL, Bono says what a blessing it is to know each of his bandmates and “to know you, to know you”. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@ryannichols7 I’ll take this show over Denver 2 on the basis of Electric Co. But yeah.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to ryannichols7

@blue_gaze He’s snippeted it once before, at the end of Sometimes You Can’t Make It on 2006-12-09 in Hawaii.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to blue_gaze

21. Encore opens with City Of Blinding Lights. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@erikmissio Wish it had been Rain - I enjoy the ramshackle versions of it U2 have played in the past.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to erikmissio

It’s the encore break now. Catch up on the main set here: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

There was a very brief La Vie En Rose snippet after BDay - but the lengthy part still seems to be a mystery. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Long snippet at the end of BDay but I have no idea what it is, something about when the sun is shining & the rain is falling. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@thescreendoor I’d say it’s sounding pretty fresh this tour after missing 360. Much better than those awful Vertigo Tour versions anyway.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to thescreendoor

@U2Sydney @hjwallace1 Hahaha, see it’s a sign Melbourne really is the best. ;)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to U2Sydney

U2BROTHR My god. I’m in tears. Thank you to all U2 fans across the world. I’m shaking. One love to all. Dreams do come true. #U2ieTour

 via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 4:08 AM, Jun 13th, 2015  via Twitter Web Client)

He has also namechecked violence and human rights abuses elsewhere in the world, e.g. Yemen and Azerbaijan. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono is talking mid-Pride about Kazakhstan, “where an ugly dictator is imprisoning our friends in Amnesty International”. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

18. Hands That Built America snippet leads into Pride. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

@U2Sydney @hjwallace1 @U2BROTHR As an adopted Melburnian, let me say BOOOOOO SYDNEY

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to U2Sydney

No snippet of 19 in Bullet tonight (but Bono is still using the megaphone). Very few snippets at all so far. #U2ieTour #U2

Bono asked @U2BROTHR where he’s from. “Toronto”. Montreal crowd boos! #U2ieTour #U2

14. Elevation, back after missing four shows - this is its 2nd performance of the tour. @U2BROTHR is on stage doing Meerkat! #U2ieTour #U2

Text of the “justice for the forgotten” visuals in Raised By Wolves is in French tonight. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

10. Until The End Of The World. There was the usual Psalm 23 snippet at the end of Raised By Wolves. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@EveryBrokenWave Yeah fair enough. But one less person to shoot the shit with and keep me entertained when they do Elevation/Stuck!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to EveryBrokenWave

@sb_wreeldeal @KevinMFeeney Hahaha oh dear. So glad I got electric WGRYWH.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to sb_wreeldeal

6. Cedarwood Road. More Periscope action. https://www.periscope.tv… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@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

He says that Montreal is “a sexy city. You bring the heat to North America.” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono’s giving his mid-I Will Follow speech about the importance of surrender. “Who do you surrender to?” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@_aihsila I’ve spent a loooot of time in the depths of our database over the years!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to _aihsila

@KevinMFeeney Nope. Electric Co was dropped after one bad crowd in Monterrey in Feb 06. Lucky I went to Boston May 05 too!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KevinMFeeney

@atu2 I’m chuffed I managed to remember it, thanks to its appearances in UTEOTW on 360.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to atu2

3. Vertigo - and I think count-in was in French. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Snippet of Leonard Cohen’s Anthem at the end of Electric Co. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Band intros during Electric Co lead to a snippet of Send In The Clowns. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

On one of the Periscope feeds, somebody just yelled “wow! wow! wow!” Yep, my feelings about Electric Co exactly. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

2. The Electric Co., back after missing one show. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

Intro music People Have The Power is playing in Montreal. #U2 will be on stage very soon. #U2ieTour

 via Twitter Web Client

@atu2comSherry Here’s a craaaazy guess: Vertigo somewhere in the main set.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to atu2comSherry

@Rlabs19 I hope so! Imagine if there’s more variation it’ll be nights 3-4 though.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Rlabs19

Setlist guesses tonight? I figure this show will feature Electric Co, a couple of Rattle & Hum songs, and Still Haven’t Found. #U2 #U2ieTour

 via Twitter Web Client

@thom2805 Yep, and they manage to communicate more than most bands with vocalists.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to thom2805

Also, last night here in Melbourne I saw an epic gig by Sleepmakeswaves. If you like heavy, evocative instrumentals, do NOT miss them.

 via Twitter Web Client

Ax here to take you through #U2’s 1st of 4 Montreal shows. Here’s a feed for tonight. #U2ieTour https://twitter.com/u2wa…
