The below is an off-site archive of all most tweets posted by @u2gigs ever

July 23rd, 2015

I (Ax) just added a few little tidbits to Chris’s write-up of today’s #U2ieTour show in NYC: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2

 via Twitter Web Client

Haha. I just wish Jimmy Fallon had instead brought #asignofhomecoming for A Sort Of Homecoming. #U2ieTour #U2 https://twitter.com/mtmu…

 via Twitter Web Client

Today’s performance of Angel Of Harlem is the first time #U2 have performed it at a full tour gig in NYC since October 2001. #U2ieTour

 via Twitter Web Client

And with that, I’m outta here! I (Chris) havebBeen sick as a dog all day today. Nyquil is calling my name. Goodnight!

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Show’s over, folks! Here’s what was played: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

All You Need Is Love snippet with Paul McCartney in the house

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@KevinMFeeney I kinda get it. Crowd sings as “one.” But yeah, this is a song that needs Bono’s vocals.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to KevinMFeeney

@stephenreilly2 Well Elevation has been played very sparingly this tour. But Streets isn’t going anywhere, bank on it.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to stephenreilly2

The crowd takes over lead vocals. T’was a nice touch at NYC 1, but I missed hearing Bono sing it with us. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Exactly what I’m saying RT @bethandbono: I recognize and respect Streets’ philanthropic provenance. But I miss it as a fan anthem. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

23rd and presumably last is One. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

California snippet in Streets.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Hopefully you Europeans get treated to a different Streets. I miss those seamless transitions of tours past.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Don’t get me wrong, it was still great. But far from the show’s highlight. I’m actually really disappointed about that fact.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

For as great as Streets is and was at NYC 1, the speechifying really killed the momentum leading into the song.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

22nd is Mother And Child Reunion / Streets, per usual. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

I love Bono’s speechifying so much, but it does not belong before Streets.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Me too, me too. RT @bethandbono: Soul, soul! The goal is soul, soul! I miss it. #U2ieTour #BeautifulDay

 via U2gigs (Chris)

I Remember You snippet at the end of Beautiful Day. Did I hear a Summer In The City snippet too? #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

After the flood, all the colors came out <3

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@PhilbyB Ehh. Bullet/Hands/Pride = Angry at America/longing for the goodness of America to return/goodness of America returns. Its sensible

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to PhilbyB

21st is Beautiful Day to open the encore. Still as awesome as ever. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Here’s the Stephen Hawking video… #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Pride ends the main set. Encore time in a second. Catch up on what you missed: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@PhilbyB I get Bullet/Hands/Pride. That makes sense. COBL/Bullet doesn’t to me, as much as I try to make sense of it.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to PhilbyB

20th is The Hands That Built America / Pride, as usual. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@MANemeth But on some nights, the power of that rant has been bone chilling to me at least.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to MANemeth

19 snippet in Bullet. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@KevinMFeeney I’m with you. But if he’s going to speechify before Streets of all songs, Bullet/Hands/Pride should precede it.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to KevinMFeeney

@MANemeth See, I LOVE Bullet this tour. Totally reinvigorated. Its the placement of Bullet that’s so strange.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to MANemeth

@rendigryce Keep the Hands/Pride transition. Then lead that into speech/Mother-Child/Streets.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to rendigryce

End the main set with something like: EBW-WOWY-Bad/All I Want Is You-City Of Blinding Lights-Beautiful Day. Then encore w/Bullet.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

I’d love to see Bullet The Blue Sky open the encore. Then Pride. Then speech about America-AIDS/Mother and Child/Streets. Lot less awkward.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

19th is the so awkwardly placed Bullet The Blue Sky #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Apparently the Stephen Hawking video that normally precedes City Of Blinding Lights was not shown.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

18th is City Of Blinding Lights, in the actual city of blinding lights. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@rendigryce Totally agree. I really don’t like Bullet’s placement after COBL

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to rendigryce

@KevinMFeeney Totally agree. Wish that’s how the main set ended sometimes.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to KevinMFeeney

The Every Breaking Wave-With Or Without You transition is leagues better than Wave-Bullet The Blue Sky. Makes so much more sense.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

17th is With Or Without You. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@u2girl1966 He fell in his home and his wedding ring caught against a table. Nearly ripped his finger off. Had to have surgery last week

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to u2girl1966

@madfl3a I’m just happy I was there to see its live resurrection!

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to madfl3a

16th is Every Breaking Wave. No October tonight, it seems. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

RT @atu2: Larry takes the tamborine, QuestLove takes the drums and we have full horn section #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

What a party they must be having at The Garden tonight! #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

The Roots are now onstage with the band to perform Angel Of Harlem, much like they did together on the Tonight Show back in May #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

“It’s not easy to be Bono”- @jimmyfallon #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

This. Is. Awesome. @jimmyfallon is killing it onstage with the boys! #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Jimmy Fallon is on lead vocals #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

14th is Desire, which Fallon/The Roots covered the day after Bono’s bike crash canceled U2’s residency on The Tonight Show #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

So Bono has Tonight Show host and noted U2 fan Jimmy Fallon onstage! #U2ieTOur

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Both my feeds cut out during Mysterious Ways. Anyone catch any snippets? #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

13th is Mysterious Ways #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@EveryBrokenWave I think it’s the perfect song to start the 2nd set with. Move Invisible somewhere else.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to EveryBrokenWave

12th is Even Better Than The Real Thing #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@Lunnzies I definitely think it gets played in Europe

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to Lunnzies

The Fly video kicks off intermission time. Here’s what’s been played: http://www.u2gigs.com/

 via U2gigs (Chris)

10th is Until The End Of The World. Raised By Wolves had Psalm 23 #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

RAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISED BYYYYY WOLLLLLVESSSS

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@KevinMFeeney Oh yeah, it was a total singalong. It was awesome

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to KevinMFeeney

9th is Raised By Wolves, the song of the night at NYC 1. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

When Johnny Comes Marching Home snippet. Definitely one of my favorite snips #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@KevinMFeeney True true, the people around me were into basically every song, as was I. Even October got a huge ovation from my spot

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to KevinMFeeney

8th is Sunday Bloody Sunday #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@KevinMFeeney Raised By Wolves and Iris got tremendous responses at NYC 1, in my opinion though, for what it’s worth

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to KevinMFeeney

@KevinMFeeney I mostly agree. That just comes with the territory though. Most people there know the Mysterious Ways lyrics better than Iris’

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to KevinMFeeney

7th is Song For Someone #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

I love the “Is Edge coming out to play” line Bono sings during the Cedarwood Road bridge. The cherry on top to this going to the past thing.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

For what it’s worth, Iris was one of the highlights of the night at NYC 1. Just so, so emotional. You could feel it in the air.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

6th is Cedarwood Road. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@Wall82Jonathan SBS/UTEOTW are there though. And classics is what the second set is for. Bullet, Pride, WOWY, Mysterious Ways…

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to Wall82Jonathan

@EveryBrokenWave It’s ticky tacky, I know. Not as ticky tacky as the LAPOE snippet in Until The End Of The World though!

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to EveryBrokenWave

Bono’s speech before Iris left a few in GA, including my missus, in tears last weekend. Very powerful stuff from Bono.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@Wall82Jonathan I was actually telling Ax earlier that the first set is much better than the second set. Flows much smoother.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to Wall82Jonathan

@EveryBrokenWave The melody in which he sang it more resembled 40, I would say though.

 via U2gigs (Chris) in reply to EveryBrokenWave

Miracle-Electric Co/Gloria/OOC-Vertigo-I Will Follow is one high powered opening quartet. I was pouring sweat in GA after it. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

4th is I Will Follow. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

RT @jimmyfallon: Wow!!! @U2!! Showing ‘em how it’s done!! #U2ieTour #U2ieNYC

 via U2gigs (Chris)

I think I may preliminary list that as a 40 snippet in Out Of Control. Ax can overrule me later if he wants. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Was that a 40 snippet? Bono sang “How long, how long” after all. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Out Of Control returns after missing four shows. Was last played at Boston 2 #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

I (Chris) found The Miracle to be a much more enjoyable opener than I expected it to be at NYC 1. Very fun way to start the night.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Follow along with tonight’s set right here: http://www.u2gigs.com/ar… #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone) opens the show, as usual. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

People Have The Power is playing over the PA at The Garden. Almost showtime! #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

We have a few mixlr streams tonight. One here: http://mixlr.com/mysteri… and another here: http://mixlr.com/u2br/ #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

@Lunnzies Just to be on the safe side, see if you can find a venue policy on cameras. But should be fine!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to Lunnzies

Only I could manage to catch a nasty cold during a New York City heatwave. I better recover in time for NYC 5 on Sunday.

 via U2gigs (Chris)

Hi all, Chris here to take you through NYC3. Bear with me though, I’m pretty under the weather today. #U2ieTour

 via U2gigs (Chris)

So this is interesting. Some rumours suggest Springsteen will join #U2 on stage tonight. We’ll see… #U2ieTour https://twitter.com/Sill…
