@georgemccauley Yeah I’ll be really surprised if it’s not a regular.
Rusty_Olson @u2gigs It’s been 11,745 days since I’ve seen U2 perform A Sort Of Homecoming. That streak might end in 20 days. https://t.co/HguL6gQZEv
@RobEasty I would be unable to contain myself.
I Will Follow has longest run of being played every tour since debut, from May 1980. If skipped on #JT30, record will go to NYD if played.
@jeffgatorscape Also expect some songs to get dropped. Remember Drowning Man and One Step Closer, If God Will Send… twitter.com/i/web/status/8…
@jeffgatorscape They almost never rehearse full set until ~4 days out. Almost full yes, but not full. Expect it to be around 23-25 songs.
@Matteau23 @DrDreHistorian Oh man if they ever dug out Hawkmoon…! The Lovetown versions are sublime.

@sb_wreeldeal I don’t know, if they do it at any of my (Ax) shows, I feel bad for everybody within about 100m of me.
@0674pete Actually Adam already said it probably won’t. I think they want JT to be second half of main set.
@Noodles105 Too many songs have failed to get out of rehearsals for me to get too optimistic. But yes, never dreamed it might be possible.
bonojour you know it’s something cool when U2gigs loses its chill twitter.com/u2gigs/status/…
Yes, this is Ax checking in. The idea of A Sort of Homecoming & One Tree Hill, my 2 fav U2 songs, in same set is almost too good to be true.
U2 REHEARSED A SORT OF HOMECOMING?!?!
IF THEY PLAY IT IN LONDON OR BERLIN I WILL HAVE 17,000 KITTENS.
Standing outside a stadium and listen to rehearsals reminds me of North Star rehearsal 2010 youtube.com/watch?v=lwiJRk…
A Sort Of Homecoming from Vancouver rehearsal #TheJoshuaTree2017 twitter.com/vitonu2/status…
@KUEFC I think MOTD will end main set. BD will start encore. My guess. Probably 21-22 songs each night (weather depending)
@adammajorcsik Not yet, but some Passengers.
@KUEFC They’ve reached curfew.
It’s 2am here and 2.5 hours after my wife told me not to stay up much later. Time to sneak upstairs… Goodnight from Matkin.
HUGE thanks to Bjorn, @PBear1979, for periscoping the whole day
Well, here is our recap of today’s rehearsals, including the full set they did to close the night: u2gigs.com/article1154.ht…
Something is happening inside with the lights, but the sound seems to be cut
@lukas_venencia Not even Vertigo
It’s gone quiet.
Sounds like they’ve got a full string section playing along to Pavarotti.
@KUEFC Yesterday it was the closer
Miss Sarajevo
Based on yesterday, on track for a 21 song set
The crowd outside sounds bigger than earlier during the night
And now One
Baby, baby, baby: light my way
Seems to be Beautiful Day now? A bit quieter than the earlier songs
This is presumably the end of the prospective main set; 16 songs in length tonight
@Chadsterbooya Exit
EL Pueblo Vencera = The People Will Win
EL Pueblo Vencera refrain
Yes, first one of the night amazingly! RT @markpeterboro: @u2gigs Gloria snippet
Mothers of the Diappeared… God I love this song. Full band, no charango!
This song is gonna be an absolute monster
Exit should be next
@atu2 @jholden23 @U2 I can see people annoyed during the weekdays. They may be asked to wrap up a little earlier.
One Tree Hill, preceeded by the very enthusiastic fans outside
There has been no speechifying between (or even in) songs so far. Just the songs themselves.
For anyone not counting, we are currently 13 songs into the set with three Joshua Tree songs left.
Trip Through Your Wires
I really need to finish editing that podcast I recorded with Ax in March…
In God’s Country
jholden23 @atu2 @u2gigs @U2 It was already on the news tonight but the general feeling was ‘seriously?’ and they talked to mo… https://t.co/pIm9qpDFmZ
Terry earning his paycheque on this one
Red Hill Mining Town
@markpeterboro So far! Red Hill should be next #TJT
Running to Stand Still after what sounded like a bit of an abrupt end to Bullet to me.
@litofpigs A stage was assembled in Houston. It is now in Vancouver.
atu2 If you look at the @U2 account’s mentions, lots of local residents not happy about the volume. This’ll be in Vancouver press soon.
Bullet
No Shine Like Stars
@litofpigs 11:30 PM in Vancouver; 2:30 am for me.
I wonder if Bono might be tempted to throw an Exodus snippet into ISHF at some point this tour…
Now With or Without You as police sirens roar in the background.
I actually hope they don’t run as long as they did last night. My missus told me not to stay up too much later. That was an hour ago! Matkin
Fans outside cheering as Streets ends and ISHF begins
No California snippet in Streets
Periscope RT @PBear1979: Seagulls, traffic noise and hopefully a whole lot of U2! pscp.tv/w/a9kjezFXTEVS…
U2 appear to be running through a working set. Current set here: u2gigs.com/article1154.ht…
fakebono Jaysis the punters are listening to us practice on Periscope? YOU’RE ALL CRAZY
Ax is in Europe right now and presumably asleep. If he was still in Australia, he would have been awake to hear ASOH
Our running article on tonight’s rehearsals is here: u2gigs.com/article1154.ht… #U2JT30
Appears to be the band now, or at least Bono singing. Still Miss Sarajevo
Seems to be just techs right now. Miss Sarajevo for what it is worth.
And rehearsals seem to have started again.
PBear1979 Seagulls, traffic noise and hopefully a whole lot of U2! pscp.tv/w/a9kjezFXTEVS…
Just 4 songs so far today: Running to Red Hill Mining Town’s Miss Sarajevo of the Disappeared #U2 #U2JT30
