I (Ax) will get back to work and leave Matkin to his madness. Cheers folks, see you next time, whenever that is.

 via Twitter Web Client

ClaytonsKitten @u2gigs @stefsaysgovols Kinda want to see Bono and Hammer break into the Cha Cha Slide now, tho….

 via Twitter for Android (retweeted on 7:04 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via U2gigs (Matkin))

My now deleted tweet about Bono busting out Can’t Touch This was, of course, filled with lyrics for the Chaa-Chaa Slide instead. Oops?

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Because it is 1am for Matkin and I don’t know any better RT @stefsaysgovols: @u2gigs why is he doing the cha cha slide

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Here’s our writeup on today’s #U2 #Dreamfest performance with the full setlist: u2gigs.com/article1139.ht…

 via Twitter Web Client

SilRigote As much as I wished I was there, I have to say, it was fun to share this moment w/ all of you online! Thanks #U2ers! See you in 2017!!! #U2

 via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 6:55 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via U2gigs (Matkin))

Well that is it for U2. Time for the afterparty with MC Hammer and will-dot-i-dot-am. Possible Bono will join one of them for a song

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

That would appear to be the actual end. I (Ax) am surprised neither iHeart nor this show got Out Of Control. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

“All the way at the back! We’re feeling ya!” #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Will be ten minutes or so till their slot runs out after 40 ends. Maybe they’d sneak in an Out of Control? ;-) #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Bono intros 40, referring to band’s anniversary: “It’s kinda like a fortieth birthday song.” #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

40 to close the night. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

OH YES HERE WE GO IT’S 40. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

Songs Ax says better than Streets live: Bad, One Tree Hill, 11 O’clock TickTock, Fly, UTEOTW, A Sort of Homecoming, Elec Co. #myshitopinions

 via Twitter Web Client

The answer: “Unfinished business!” Now Edge, it’s been a while: don’t fall off the stage! #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Still Haven’t Found is next. Bono talks about meeting 40 years ago. “Very good question if you ask: Why are we still here?” #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Unlike Ax, I (Matkin) happen to have nodding-dog syndrome because it is almost 1 am! #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

TylerBronn Prays for shine like stars @u2gigs

 via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 6:37 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via Twitter Web Client)

I (Ax) am going to be controversial and say Bad wipes the floor with Streets. twitter.com/SilRigote/stat…

 via Twitter Web Client

Unlike Matkin, I (Ax) was paying attention. There was a bit of a “la la la” but nothing quite enough to be a snip i… twitter.com/i/web/status/7…

 via Twitter Web Client

Here’s With Or Without You, the song on the printed set for iHeart that missed out. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

I missed checking for a California snip in Streets! #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Streets, for the first time ever with the red background on the Vertigo stage! Bounce, Sherry, bounce! #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

U2Community #Dreamfest trending #2 we hear. In Germany.

 via Tweetbot for Mac (retweeted on 6:28 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via U2gigs (Matkin))

Up next: Mother & Child Reunion, which of course means Streets. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Bono takes another shot at Trump? “This community is about giving away billions, not making it.”

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

My Sweet Lord snippeted at the end of One. Bono echoes Slane and says they’ll stay on the stage. Guess this the encore break? #Dreamfest #U2

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Eleven songs in and we finally get a song from the nineties. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

Glad that I (Matkin) am not the only one with backend troubles!

Naomi_U2Sydney Compare video of #Trump with #MLK - can’t get a more powerful contrast #U2 @U2 #dreamfest

 via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 6:23 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via U2gigs (Matkin))

U2 have been on stage about an hour so far. They have another 35 minutes or so to use before cutting into MC Hammer #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

_Bigwave_ Tonights Presidential debate is brought to you by @U2 & #Dreamfest from Daly City SF. The Donald gonna punch Larry in the face?? Right.

 via Tweetbot for Mac (retweeted on 6:21 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via U2gigs (Matkin))

@MarkCDarwin Ha, maybe I (Ax) will count that in two decades after I finally finish Hear Us Coming for One.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to MarkCDarwin

I (Ax) am having tech difficulties w/ the site backend adding the snips for Bullet, so those won’t be displayed until Matthias can fix.

 via Twitter Web Client

What a rant. That was a seriously long Bullet as a result. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

Hands That Built America snippet into Pride #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

KevinMFeeney @u2gigs I was just thinking this is the ballsiest Bono has been politically since Please. Maybe 01 Bullet.

 via Twitter for iPhone (retweeted on 6:13 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via Twitter Web Client)

atu2 What’s the over/under on a Trump tweet coming with comments about Bono? I say less than an hour from now (sherry)

 via TweetDeck (retweeted on 6:13 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via U2gigs (Matkin))

RT @SilRigote: YES!!!! ALL the Brazilians

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

SO… Bullet the Blue Sky / Star-Spangled Banner (snippet) / Statue of Liberty (snippet)???? Ax???????? #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Geez I (Ax) wish U2 were doing a full tour right now. It’d be proper political and fiery like in the old days.

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono tells Trump: “you’re fired!” #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

.@atu2 Bible verse isn’t it? I recognize it from Mike Oldfield’s Let There Be Light. Maybe a snippet? #Dreamfest #U2

 via U2gigs (Matkin) in reply to atu2

Bono going for it w/ mocking “convo” w/ Trump. “Good people are not going to stay silent while you run off w/ the American dream” #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono referring to Trump as “Candidate”, not by name. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Smug Trump picture on the screen. “I’m really rich!” “And your point is?” #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

One Billion! Two Billion! #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

“A candidate comes up to me, his face red like a rose on a thorn bush.” You mean orange, Bono. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

atu2 Expect a huge rant on Trump during Bullet tonight - you’ve been warned #Dreamfest #U2

 via TweetDeck (retweeted on 6:06 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via U2gigs (Matkin))

Star-Spangled Banner snippet #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

@sb_wreeldeal I find its sentimentality to be sickly sweet, and the lyrics ham-fisted.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to sb_wreeldeal

It will remain my secret until they begin falling from the sky. #U2 #Dreamfest RT @Acrobatgirl: @u2gigs So what was your version?

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Anyone expecting a non-hit/rarity tonight really shouldn’t. U2 will focus on their known songs. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

@sb_wreeldeal I (Ax) still can’t believe U2 went from writing Mofo to writing Stuck in the space of 3 years.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to sb_wreeldeal

Steve of course being Steve Jobs #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Song 8 is Every Breaking Wave, dedicated to Laureen and Steve, the son of a refugee #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

It was only during the IE tour that I realized I’ve been singing the lyrics at the end of Stuck wrong for 15 years… #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

This is character assassination, Matkin! On the other hand, U2 playing this blather is good for my productivity at… twitter.com/i/web/status/7…

 via Twitter Web Client

The only U2 song Ax likes more than Stuck is IALW. I’m at least quite happy that it has been played differently every tour. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

No guitars given away at end of AOH. Song seven is Stuck in a Moment #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Bono mentions #U2 started off in a carpark, playing gigs at Dandelion Market. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

“The goal is soul” Bono shouts at the beginning. He said it quite often during BD on Elevation, but as far as I know it isn’t a snippet

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Edge went a bit original at the end there. Well, I’m sure @mattmccgee will be happy he heard it. Angel of Harlem next up. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

When the rain of snippets finally arrives, it pours. twitter.com/harbinger384/s…

 via Twitter Web Client

Ax has determined it is Zooropa, not Acrobat. The “dream up the world you want to live in” seals it. Bollocks. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin) in reply to u2gigs

sb_wreeldeal @u2gigs They finally played a location appropriate song!

 via Twitter Web Client (retweeted on 5:47 AM, Oct 6th, 2016  via Twitter Web Client)

RT @SilRigote: OMG!!!! This California intro. Ok, now I’m in tears

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

This is just the seventh performance of California, the third IN California itself. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

California Dreaming snippeted at the beginning #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Fifth song is California #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Blackbird snippet closes Beautiful Day. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

Dream out loud Bono shouts at the end. Ax, PLEASE can we call that an Acrobat snippet? Followed by Blackbird snippet. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Zooropa snippet in BDay! “Dream up the world you want to live in, dream out loud”. #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

@atu2comSherry Just about the length of U2 Go Home, perfect!

 via U2gigs (Matkin) in reply to atu2comSherry

Fourth song is Beautiful Day #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Seems the break has wiped the snippets from Bono’s eyes. #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Bono band intros in IWF. “On the drums the man who started this show, Larry Mullen Jr!” #Dreamfest

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono introduces the band and directs the spotlight #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Ax is quite shameless. Third song of the night is I Will Follow #U2 #Dreamfest

Second song of the night is Elevation #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Vertigo Tour visuals are quite fittingly back #U2 #Dreamfest

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Matkin will be your main host today because I’m at work, but I’ll keep the main page humming and chime in every now and then.

 via Twitter Web Client

I’ a bit rusty; let’s see if we can catch snippets! #U2 #Dreamfest
