@AntonioMbass @mixlr I think that’s not required. Just wanted to make sure people are not surprised at last minute.

 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to AntonioMbass

@anandadaydream Fully agree. If you periscope you just do this and nothing else. Streaming audio requires not much attention.

@U2start @mysteriousdays Hey, I was just going to offer something similar :p

cvodb Having a chat with Mr Friday, currently in Vancouver, looking after B. and co’s career. Meanwhile, it’s up to me to promote his ;-)

Just spotted this on the @mixlr website: „Mixlr Basic will be discontinued on Wed 17 May 2017” so no free version anymore.

 via Tweetbot for Mac

@Tim_Dinnissen Got it now. It’s funny because on the audience recording it sounds more like guitar but on the earfeed you hear it’s Bono.

 via Tweetbot for Mac in reply to Tim_Dinnissen

JKeatingx @U2start @u2gigs @atu2 A few red zone tickets were just released for Vancouver… fans should keep an eye open if they are interested

u2songs Top selling records in Canada on RSD, U2’s “Red Hill Mining Town” was #5 in singles: exclaim.ca/music/article/… (Thanks @paul_lunn81 )

This is what the Red Zone looks like #U2TheJoshuaTree2017 (first it appeared like the FOS to me because of the size… twitter.com/i/web/status/8…

 via TweetDeck

@U2_SRNR No, if we don’t count Live Aid. Earliest was at 2nd spot like here: u2gigs.com/show1273.html or on some pre War Tour dates.

 via TweetDeck in reply to U2_SRNR

The best part of this job is seeing just how unpopular my opinions are among colleagues and fans. twitter.com/u2gigs/status/…

Just for the record, I did include it but it doesn’t appear to have saved. I even had a good closing line I’ve now… twitter.com/i/web/status/8…

I’ll auction it off as the Axver torture device. RT @adammajorcsik: @u2gigs You gotta give it away!! Please :P

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

(The best part of this job is ribbing Ax)

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

Uhh, Ax… you forgot to update it after Mothers. I know you don’t like the encore but you shouldn’t erase it from existence!

Here’s our writeup on today’s #JT30 rehearsal action: u2gigs.com/article1157.ht…

 via Twitter Web Client

@mysteriousdays Thanks for the mixlr earlier! Listen on my commute was fun ???? Matt

 via Tweetbot for iΟS in reply to mysteriousdays

On a serious note, one that does not involve any of my shitty opinions about Achtung Baby, it looks like U2 are done rehearsing for today.

 via Twitter Web Client

I made Ax a CD. Every song was a different In a Little While. I forgot to give it to him…

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

@ScreamingNino Haha no, though it’s closing in on 5pm in Australia and I’m about to! I’ve been saying this for year… twitter.com/i/web/status/8…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to ScreamingNino

Matkin can say I’m banned from discussing Achtung Baby, but you know lurking in it is a 5/5 EP: Zoo Stn, UTEOTW, Fly, Acrobat, LIB.

 via Twitter Web Client

I (Ax) am very surprised they’ve only rehearsed 21 songs by now. 18 months ago 2nd leg of IE Tour was 25-27 songs…. twitter.com/i/web/status/8…

 via Twitter Web Client

@ScreamingNino Oh you’re going to get furious when I tell you how lowly I rate One…

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to ScreamingNino

Ax is now banned from discussing Achtung Baby

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

15 minutes to curfew

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

@ScreamingNino Mate, it’s not even a top five U2 album.

Signed,
Ax, of the Unpopular Opinions

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to ScreamingNino

@gilson_jr_ Yeah, Out of Control already has a good track record as a strong concert opener.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to gilson_jr_

Quiet on the feed now, after Miss Sarajevo ended. More to come? New song to be rehearsed with sound turned down like prev nights..? Or done?

 via Twitter Web Client

.@ST_U2 20 anniversary of Sarajevo concert, Bono’s honorary citizenship, nearly 10 years since Pavarotti’s death…

 via U2gigs (Matkin) in reply to ST_U2

@MarkCDarwin Dirty Day was a triumph live. Deserves another go.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to MarkCDarwin

Miss Sarajevo being rehearsed now. Definitely not a song I expected to get another run after its lengthy Vertigo & 360 stints.

 via Twitter Web Client

Ax may dislike Ultraviolet but Matkin can’t get enough of it!

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

@gilson_jr_ It needs a couple more songs early on, that’s for sure. Where’s the Boy stuff!

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to gilson_jr_

@zooradio1 Just can’t stand it. Barely better than a prophecy of boyband cheese.

Yes, my opinions on Achtung are… not popular.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to zooradio1

@MarkCDarwin Love Is Blindness is a song I’m surprised has not been dug out on any recent tour.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to MarkCDarwin

It is ALWAYS time to bring back 11 O’clock Tick Tock. twitter.com/MarkCDarwin/st…

 via Twitter Web Client

Next song is One. This is the “let’s play Achtung songs everybody but Ax loves” part of the rehearsal.

 via Twitter Web Client

Interesting how many people don’t think SBS is a great choice for opener. I reckon crowd will love it. That drum intro will send place nuts.

 via Twitter Web Client

U2 now rehearsing Ultra Violet. I know a lot of you love it but I (Ax) will sit this one out. #JT30

 via Twitter Web Client

Rehearsal of JT is done and the band have moved onto “encore” opener, Beautiful Day. Not much of a break there. #JT30

 via Twitter Web Client

Mothers of the Disappeared is ending with El Pueblo Vencera.

 via Twitter Web Client

We’ve got a main page article with the rehearsal set in progress: u2gigs.com/article1157.ht… #JT30

 via Twitter Web Client

hughstimson Presumably there’s regular concerts at BC Place. U2 is the first act loud enough to hear all the way in #eastvan. Some sound set up.

 via Twitter for Android (retweeted on 7:08 AM, May 9th, 2017  via U2gigs (Matkin))

@AntonioMbass Haha, I’ll take all comers who wish to dispute the superiority of One Tree Hill.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to AntonioMbass

Damn does Exit sound good. How on earth has this not been played in concert since 1989? It’s a live beast.

 via Twitter Web Client

The band are nearing the end of The Joshua Tree. They’ve run through tracks 1-8 and are now up to the best song on the album, One Tree Hill.

 via Twitter Web Client

Do I really need to tell you what next 10 songs are? I Still Haven’t Found now. Drums in 1st verse, which hasn’t been done on recent tours.

 via Twitter Web Client

Forgot to mention, MLK was between ASOH and Pride. #JT30

 via Twitter Web Client

Rehearsing Streets now. I’m really not sure why they’ve revived the Pride/Streets segue of the Vertigo Tour rather than going ASOH/Streets.

 via Twitter Web Client

Here’s a stream. U2 are rehearsing Pride now. #JT30 twitter.com/atu2/status/86…

 via Twitter Web Client

Rehearsals: SBS was followed by NYD, a bit of Bono banter, and A Sort of Homecoming. I’m getting giddy about ASOH, everyone. #JT30

 via Twitter Web Client

Every song other than BDay and Vertigo has missed at least two gigs. City of Blinding Lights is the one that’s missed just 2.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to u2gigs

Beautiful Day looks certain to be played on #JT30. Vertigo not yet rehearsed. Will it miss a gig & leave BDay the only one w/ this record?

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to u2gigs

Excluding tracks from Songs of Innocence, only two songs have been played at every full tour gig since their debut: Beautiful Day & Vertigo.

 via Twitter Web Client

Rehearsals in Vancouver have resumed. Taped intro music (maybe The Pogues’ Rainy Night in Soho), then Sunday Bloody Sunday. #JT30

 via Twitter Web Client

atu2comSherry It dawned on me…is that mysterious balloon the orb of safety to make sure Edge or Bono don’t fall off the stage?… https://t.co/dWeA5lSSKQ

 via TweetDeck (retweeted on 4:12 AM, May 9th, 2017  via U2gigs (Matkin))

Just reported “intro music” & a little bit of SBS a couple of times, then a more complete SBS. He reckons it’s going to be the opening song.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to u2gigs

Good job Ax! Now you can write the article for today too! =D

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

This is all thanks to jimyc on Interference, who is on the scene.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to u2gigs

This was followed by partial Running to Stand Still, end of Pride, a break, more work on end of Pride/start of Streets, full Ultra Violet.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to u2gigs

They’ve worked extensively on transition to Pavarotti verse of Miss Sarajevo (over 20mins). Then a full Red Hill Mining Town.

 via Twitter Web Client in reply to u2gigs

Hey, it’s Ax. I finally get to report on rehearsals. Some reports coming in from Vancouver today; nothing earth-shattering yet.

 via Twitter Web Client

(Last tweet by Matkin. Thank you for writing it, Jacki).

 via U2gigs (Matkin)

I encourage everyone to read this article on @atu2. As someone with mental illness, it’s very meaningful to me atu2.com/news/u2-lists-…
