This song was used for all of the performances prior to their appearance at the Bonnaroo festival. During rehearsals for the tour, and for the early shows on the tour, the song was “A Rainy Night in Soho” by The Pogues from 1986. That song was “Black Hole Sun” by Soundgarden, Cornell’s band.Īfter the pre-show mix, the PA increases in volume and the next song is the final one before U2 starts to perform. The song is not being heard in the pre-show mix, but appears to have been tied to the main performance instead.

“Seasons Waiting On You” – Future Islands.“Love is Lost (Hello Steve Reich Mix) – David Bowie.“More News from Nowhere (Radio Version)” – Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.“The Stars are Out Tonight” – David Bowie.Not every song is heard every night, and there are changes in these songs at times as tours progress, but the following are the songs we’ve been able to identify to date. On prior tours this mix was compiled by Gavin Friday, we have not confirmed he has done the mix for The Joshua Tree, but he is listed as Executive Producer for the current tour so we suspect he would have continued to contribute.

Now instead of full albums, a mix of songs is used. Usually it is a bit louder than the albums that are played prior to the opening acts. It has been used multiple nights now.Īfter the opening act is finished, the music again starts over the PA system. We mention it here to be complete, but it appears to be part of their act, and not part of the bigger U2 production thus doesn’t fit in the list below. It has been used for each performance by The Lumineers.

Just before The Lumineers take the stage, “The Chain” by Fleetwood Mac is played over the PA. Opening act, The Lumineers however, have an entrance song that has played every night before they have taken the stage. For instance in Vancouver, Mumford took the stage while “Loyalty” by Kendrick Lamar was playing, and in Seattle they took the stage while “Humble” from Kendrick Lamar was playing. Mumford and Sons and One Republic were taking the stage without any specific song to introduce them. These songs are all played in advance of the opening act. “Promised You A Miracle” / “Big Sleep” / “New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84)” / “Someone Somewhere (In Summertime)” / “Glittering Prize”ĭNA / Element / Feel / Loyalty / Pride / Humbleĭuring the albums, a single song by the artist Alabama Shakes often pops up as well, it’s the song “Don’t Wanna Fight” and in Toronto for instance it appeared between two of the songs by Simple Minds. Simple Minds’ New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) Album “Say Something Loving” / “Lips” / “A Violent Noise” / “Performance” / “Replica” / “Brave For You” / “On Hold” / “I Dare You” / “Dangerous” “Marquee Moon” / “Elevation” / “Guiding Light” / “Prove It” / “Torn Curtain” The songs identified from those albums are as follows:
