Since recently the 24 hour CD to the show began. About 5 hours ago.

 

[prbiker15]

U2 delivered pizzas? They rehearsed UV with HMTMKMKM? If this is true...wow. Great last night of rehearsal.

(Although I'll need you guys to describe the pics to me.... seems an rather unsanitary ice pick has found its way to my peepers....)

Seems a little farewell-ish

 

[nielsgov]

How many hours to go? I'll be missing the party because I'm on holiday but when I'm back I'll be ready for it.

[lauramullen]

I'm hungry. I want some pizza.

 

[catlhere]

[theedgeu2]

My bad, then.

I mean I was just sayin'.

 

[BluRmGrl]

Seems a little farewell-ish

Nooooooo. I refuse to consider that possibility at this time.

 

[Axver]

3 songs off NLOTH ?

Greatest hits tour

I don't know why so many people seem to think there are only 3 NLOTH songs in the mix. There are four in the full rehearsal setlist: Magnificent, Boots, Crazy Tonight, MOS.

Seems a little farewell-ish

Was the Vertigo Tour fifth leg a farewell? Some of its shows had just three HTDAAB songs.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Macphisto ordered pizzas almost 20 years ago for them only to turn up now. Must've been A LOT of pizzas.

 

[romi]

look at that... the food arrives and so do you people.
