Comments:
The 2nd leg of U2 360 begins with a safe show that's very similar to earlier European concerts. Bono introduces the whole band before I Still Haven't Found, just like he used to do on the Elevation Tour. He sings a bit of 'Oliver's Army' during Sunday Bloody Sunday, and adds a couple lines from 'Fool To Cry' and '40' at the end of Bad. Although the band rehearsed Your Blue Room and changes to One & Streets over the past couple nights, they're apparently not ready to play them yet.

U2 performs 'Your Blue Room,' a track from the Passengers album in 1995, for the first time. Astronauts from the Intl. Space Station recite the final, spoken words of the song (via pre-recorded video). Pride is dropped for the first time since August 28, 2001. (Thx U2gigs.) One is played before Streets as part of a three-song medley, bridged by Bono singing 'Amazing Grace.'

Bono and Edge tape an edition of the Elvis Costello-hosted TV show 'Spectacle.' Elvis and his band begin the show by performing three U2 songs - Please, Dirty Day, and Mysterious Ways. The rest of the show is Elvis interviewing Bono and Edge, with various performances breaking up the conversation. Bono and Edge perform Stay alone. Bono sings 'Two Shots' with Elvis' rhythm section. Then the whole ensemble - Bono and Edge plus Elvis and his band - do the final three numbers together.

First
time Breathe does not open (and is not played at) a 360° Tour concert.
Magnificent opens for the first time, and the opening chunk of No Line On The
Horizon songs is reduced to three rather than its usual four. Beautiful Day is
moved a little later in the set to follow the third ever performance of Your
Blue Room. City of Blinding Lights includes a bit of 'Mofo' at the start of the
song. Ashley Judd is at the show, as is NFL star Tom Brady.

Comments:
U2 change the setlist position of No Line On The Horizon: previously always second in the 360° Tour setlist, it is played tenth while Magnificent slots in at second. Breathe returns as the opener after missing the previous gig entirely. Unknown Caller misses a 360° Tour gig for only the third time. It's Bruce Springsteen's birthday, and although he does not join U2 on stage, the band play a medley of his song She's The One and their own Desire early in the main set; due to technical limitations, Desire is listed as a snippet. This is Desire's first appearance on the second leg, nearly two months since it was last played.
This concert was originally scheduled for 25 September 2009 and was only announced after strong ticket sales for the show on the 24th of September. It was moved to the 23rd so that the stadium would be free to host a rescheduled New York Jets game.
During Muse's opening set, frontman Matthew Bellamy plays a snippet of U2's The
Fly at the start of Uprising.

U2 performs for the third time on NBC's Saturday Night Live program. Moment of Surrender is shorter than the concert version, and Bono twice ad-libs/raps over the music. The show ends while U2 is still playing Ultraviolet -- which features Bono in full concert mode, wearing the laser light jacket and swinging as much as possible from the steering wheel mic as the small TV stage will allow. The band plays With or Without You just for the studio audience after the end of the show.

Line On The Horizon misses a 360° Tour show for the first time.
Before the show, crew are spotted busily trying to fix part of
the video screen, and it reportedly has problems during the show, too. There are
numerous politicians and heads of state at the show. Bono namechecks President
Kagame of Rwanda, who's in attendance. He dedicates Beautiful Day to the late
Eunice Shriver and New Year's Day to the late Ted Kennedy. Bono brings a fan
wearing a turban and holding a US flag on stage to help sing Sunday Bloody
Sunday. The show features only five songs from No Line On The Horizon, the
lowest total since the tour began in June.

U2 originally intended to play Raleigh on the Popmart Tour on 29 May 1997 but the show was cancelled at short notice.
U2's first show in Raleigh happens under a gorgeous full moon, and Bono sings about the moon at length at the end of Beautiful Day. There's a stunning moment during Sunday Bloody Sunday when Bono takes a fan's 'People Get Ready' sign, starts to sing the song while the band continues playing SBS, then throws his mic into the crowd so the fan can sing more of People Get Ready. The fan nails it and tosses the mic back to Bono. Bono gives a shout-out to the U2 academic conference that's happening in town this weekend, and pays tribute twice to conference speaker Agnes Nyamayarwo, who's at the show and recently had a birthday.

The Bruise was Edge and Gavin; The Last Song I'll Ever Sing was
Bono and Gavin's musicians. Edge and Larry joined Lou Reed,
Gavin Friday and others for Sweet Jane - and Bono came on for
the end of the song. Then all four members of U2 featured with

show's date was given as the 19th of October. It was one of numerous shows to
then be quietly removed from the tour itinerary. It was re-announced on 6 April,
and was the only date changed out of all those removed. It was U2's first
concert in Norman or anywhere in Oklahoma since the 10 June 1983 concert on the
War Tour. The setlist contains only the second performance of In A Little While
on the second leg of the 360° Tour, and the reappearance of Unknown Caller after

Bono raps similarly to how he did during Saturday Night Live (Sept. 26). Dozens

The last show of the 2009 tour suffers from several minor problems. Bono has microphone trouble early in the show and his voice struggles to get through Elevation. The ISS video drops out during In A Little While, leaving only Frank DeWinne's voice to close the song. Since it's the final show, Bono has a long list of Thank Yous that includes Edge's mom, who's at the show, 'for being our first crew member.' Bill Gates is also there, and Bono leads the crowd in singing Happy Birthday to him early in the show. One includes the 'Hear us coming' coda.

Black Eyed Peas join U2 for the Mysterious Ways - Where Is the Love combo, which includes a bit of One. Mick Jagger and Fergie sing Gimme Shelter, practically with U2 as their backing band. Jagger stays on to duet with Bono on Stuck In a Moment. Though U2 are given a one-hour slot and said to have 12 songs planned, their set is shorter. A setlist distributed before the show says U2 will play for 41 minutes (the actual time is longer due to the Because The Night redo).

Comments:
The Edge joins Muse on Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage for a very faithful version of 'Streets' that the crowd appears to love. The performance comes a day after U2 were supposed to make their own Glastonbury debut -- but that was canceled when Bono's back surgery forced U2 to postpone the first leg of the 2010 U2 360 Tour. Edge becomes the second member of U2 to perform at Glastonbury; Adam guested with Hothouse Flowers on June 17, 1989.
