@atu2comSherry In that case he’d be very wrong - 14 before this tour. (3 at the old Garden, 11 at the new arena)

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to atu2comSherry

@U2Sydney Great! Let me know if he has one more for Lon4 ;)

markpeterboro U2 Setlist after Boston 1 (25 gigs) #setlistgeek #U2ieTour @u2gigs http://t.co/bre60iGicz

 via Twitter for Android (retweeted on 7:31 AM, Jul 11th, 2015  via Tweetbot for Mac)

Turns out that 40 was not on the printed setlist tonight. #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/WTSH…

 via Twitter Web Client

@twd3pdx Nope, not even snippets from those two (or Passengers). Every other album represented.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to twd3pdx

@OnTheRoadWithU2 Yes but not on the first night, which is what Chris was getting at. It had been a 2nd night thing earlier on tour.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to OnTheRoadWithU2

@LarlarGamingYT Yeah I wish that extra slot between BD and WOWY were used every night. It’s a highlight every time they play something there

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to LarlarGamingYT

@litofpigs I (Ax) think it’s a very safe bet that NYC 8 will get 40.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to litofpigs

@twd3pdx Apart from the Moment Of Surrender snippet, no. But they have soundchecked No Line On The Horizon.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to twd3pdx

Here is the full setlist and show write-up for night one of the #U2ieTour in Boston: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

That’s the end of the show. Thanks heaps to @u2wanderer for an excellent Mixlr feed! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@sb_wreeldeal @KUEFC Yes we’re counting Stand By Me, so it’s one of the equal longest shows with 3 other 26-song sets.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to sb_wreeldeal

This was the other group Bono thanked a couple of songs ago. https://twitter.com/k_no…

 via Twitter Web Client

@juliebpickard @U2 @U2TourFan @Noodles105 @U2_News People rarely get into soundcheck; usually reports come from folks listening outside.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to juliebpickard

@KUEFC Toronto 1 is the longest with 26 songs. 25 if you don’t count Stand By Me, making it equal with this show.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to KUEFC

Can Streets-One-40 please please please end New York 1? (Chris)

 via U2gigs (Chris)

25. 40!! “It is imperative that we play it for you right now.” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

One and 40 in the same show! Very, very awesome! (Chris)

 via U2gigs (Chris)

He’s telling the story about recently-departed tour manager Dennis Sheehan starting the 40 singalong tradition. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

There’s going to be one more song! He’s talking about Red Rocks! 40?! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

This is only the third time this tour One has appeared at consecutive shows. Phoenix 2/LA 1 and Chicago 2&3 were the others.

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono has barely sung a line of One so far, but the rest of the band has kicked in. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

24. One. “Actually … you can sing this.” Crowd take over. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono also gave a shoutout to a group of scientists but I missed the details of who they were. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono says his brother Norman taught him how to play guitar but now like the rest of the band seems glad he can’t play it! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono: “couple of important people here tonight - well everyone is, but you know what I mean”. First is his brother. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Little snippet of California in Streets as always. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@LarlarGamingYT COBL/BD/California/ISHFWILF/Streets one night, BD/Miracle Drug/One/Streets/40 the next would work well.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to LarlarGamingYT

@LarlarGamingYT I keep dreaming of Discotheque or anything from Pop returning…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to LarlarGamingYT

Dear Bono, if you keep doing sports shoutouts, give one to Dan Vettori next time #U2 are in New Zealand. Don’t care how or why. Cheers, Ax.

 via Twitter Web Client

23. Mother And Child Reunion snippet leads into Where The Streets Have No Name. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady gets a shoutout from Bono. I (Chris) just so happen to be the biggest Patriots fan in the world. Awesome!

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Bono gets a big cheer from the crowd when he thanks Tom Brady for supporting the One Campaign and Red. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@LarlarGamingYT I think the rest of the encore needs to be fixed - COBL a good opener. Do miss there being rotation in that slot though.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to LarlarGamingYT

At the end of COBL Bono sings “what a blessing it is to know you, The Edge”, and repeats for Adam and Larry. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

22. Encore begins with City Of Blinding Lights #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@sb_wreeldeal You have NO IDEA how loud I (Ax) screamed and sang when Shine Like Stars was done at Dublin 3 in 2009.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to sb_wreeldeal

Encore about to start - Stephen Hawking video is playing now. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

Does Shine Like Stars become a nightly thing now? I’d probably burst into tears next week in NYC if I (Chris) hear it.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Shine Like Stars has not been sung at consecutive shows since October 2001! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

YEEEAAAAAAHHHH WE’LL SHINE LIKE STARS IN THE SUMMER NIGHT!!!

 via Twitter Web Client

Let’s all cross our fingers in the hope Bono does Shine Like Stars again tonight. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

With Bono constantly referencing this tour’s theme of surrender, I (Chris) think Moment Of Surrender should/would be a great main set closer

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@ryannichols7 I keep wondering if they’re going to bust out the whole thing soon…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to ryannichols7

Bad also has a Moment Of Surrender snippet. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bad’s opening notes take me (Ax) right back to being twelve and spinning it on holidays home to New Zealand, lying in the sun at my Nan’s.

 via Twitter Web Client

So Bad was played at Toronto 1 and now Boston 1. Hoping I (Chris) get to see it at New York 1 on July 18th. I’d be in heaven if so!

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@hjwallace1 @srj68 I won’t tell you about the alternate lyrics my mates and I came up with for Beautiful Day when we were 14…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to hjwallace1

20. Bad! Back after missing one show. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Moment Of Surrender snippet at the end of Beautiful Day. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Boston is one of most incredible places in the world. So happy Bono is speaking of it as such. (Chris) #BostonStrong

 via U2gigs (Chris)

19, Beautiful Day. Bono still on Boston: “a city that refuses to hate because it knows that love will do a better job”. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Pride ends with “we believe in you Boston!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Then Bono refers to the Boston Marathon bombing - sing for victims and “for the survivors, so strong … Boston so strong!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono referencing the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings, asking the crowd to sing for the survivors. So touching “Boston so strong!” #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

“Sing this for all lives that have been stolen by brutality and hatred. Sing this for Baltimore, Ferguson, Charleston, SING!” #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono is asking the crowd to sing for the peacemakers during Pride and giving his usual speech about peace in Ireland. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

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

 via Twitter Web Client

Bullet has the snippet of 19 tonight. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@Lunnzies Haha I wish, I’m just good at misheard lyrics, but this could be the making of a parody. If you fry your way and I fry mine…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Lunnzies

17. Bullet The Blue Sky. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@Born4Bliss Ax here: I don’t particularly rate Invisible much, but at least it has some life to it and no magic markers.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Born4Bliss

Are you chasing every bacon wave? #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono is now talking about Nelson Mandela after Ordinary Love and what a privilege it was to know him. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Ordinary Love (or Bore-dinary Love, as Ax calls it) sounds quite lovely tonight as always. (Chris)

 via U2gigs (Chris)

15. Ordinary Love, back after missing two shows. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono: “as a performer, insecurity is your best security”. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

14. Elevation, back after missing one show. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

They’re having technical difficulties setting up the Meerkat stream! #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono has a woman on stage, she’s from San Diego. Think she said her name is Josie. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Young Americans snippet in Mysterious Ways. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

12. Even Better Than The Real Thing #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

 via Twitter Web Client

#U2 have done a total of 46 shows in Massachusetts before this tour: http://www.u2gigs.com/st… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Re: the count of Boston shows pre-#U2ieTour. If we add Somerville & Foxboro, #U2 have done 36 shows, or 29 not counting promo/various dates.

 via Twitter Web Client

That’s the end of the main set. Intermission time. Catch up on what’s been played here: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@sb_wreeldeal Yeah they did the usual car bomb intro.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to sb_wreeldeal

There’s the increasingly common Love & Peace Or Else snippet in UTEOTW. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

10. Until The End Of The World. Raised By Wolves ended with Psalm 23 snippet. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Psalm 23 snippet in Raised By Wolves.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@u2fanz Fordham is in the Bronx, one of New York City’s five boroughs

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to u2fanz

RAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISED BYYYY WOLLLLVESSS! What a thrill this song is live. (Chris)

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Sorry for delay - technical difficulties for me (Ax). Also sorry, SBS was EIGHTH, not ninth. Now ninth: Raised By Wolves. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

9. Sunday Bloody Sunday with Johnny Comes Marching Home snippet. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Edge’s solo during Song For Someone’s bridge is one of my favorite moments of Songs Of Innocence. Beautiful part. (Chris)

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@u2fanz Ah good point, that’s catalogued separately on our database - but so are Foxboro shows. This gets more complicated.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to u2fanz

@Drea104 And I (Chris) am a diehard Yankees fan! Should be a long night for the Boston police outside the venues

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to Drea104

If you’re just tuning in, @u2wanderer has a great audio stream going: http://mixlr.com/u2wande… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Wait both Bono’s count of 23 Boston shows & mine of 25 wrong. My 25 includes 4 shows of #U2ieTour. Before this tour, 21 shows, tonight 22nd.

 via Twitter Web Client

What a night we’ve got in Boston. U2 at the TD Garden while the Red Sox take on the Yankees at Fenway. The downtown bars should be hopping!

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Bono also referred to #U2’s first concert in Boston, 13 December 1980, and here’s the set: http://www.u2gigs.com/sh… #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono says #U2 have played Boston 23 times. We count 31, or 25 if you exclude various dates: http://www.u2gigs.com/ci… #U2ieTour

 via Twitter Web Client

Bono about Boston: “it’s a lucky man who can consider more than one town his hometown”. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@sb_wreeldeal My two 360 shows were awesome, but I’m dying for July 18th to come!

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to sb_wreeldeal

Bono is giving his mid-I Will Follow speech about “the theme of the night”, surrender. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

@ryannichols7 I wondered if it was that, but didn’t quite sound like it to me? But was very hard to decipher anything from that little bit.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to ryannichols7

Snippet of Sex Pistols’ God Save The Queen in Vertigo. #U2ieTour #U2

WTSHNN For those keeping track Larry counted in the end of Electric Co with the HiHat. Did snare in Chi and Tor. #u2ieTour

 via Twitter for Android (retweeted on 2:33 AM, Jul 11th, 2015  via Twitter Web Client)

I Can See For Miles snippet in Electric Co. Bono may have been shouting something else before it too? #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Send In The Clowns snippet in Electric Co after band introductions. #U2ieTour #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

This is Chris popping in here. These four Boston shows should be extra energetic!
