There was a snippet in Bullet before the 1st solo but all I heard was “the gold and the silver ha ha ha”. Anyone identify it? #U2ieTour #U2

Incidentally if Bono claims they’re taking requests in Melbourne you’ll hear me yelling “A SORTA FUCKEN HOMECOMING”. Without needing Mixlr.

@DerBFreund Yeah that’s why I consider Lovetown to be the real leader.

Lovetown had wild variety of openers. UF mainly 11OTT, but #U2 tried MLK & Wire, occasionally Gloria & OOControl, and SBS opened Live Aid.

2:41 AM, Jul 27th, 2015 via Twitter Web Client

Trivia answer: two #U2 tours had six different openers, UF and Lovetown. 360 had five.

2:37 AM, Jul 27th, 2015 via Twitter Web Client

@DerBFreund Lovetown is correct - it’s one song ahead of 360, 6 to 5. One other tour also has 6…

2:36 AM, Jul 27th, 2015 via Twitter Web Client in reply to DerBFreund

@Drea104 Yep, one of those (UF) is correct - assuming you count Live Aid. There’s one other tour equal with it, but not JT.

2:36 AM, Jul 27th, 2015 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Drea104

@Wall82Jonathan You’re close. It had 5 openers, which is second.

Last show I played trivia by asking which tours had had only one opener. So today: which #U2 tour has had the most different opening songs?

2:33 AM, Jul 27th, 2015 via Twitter Web Client

@emsareh That’s usually done by fans running the line.
