Official July 5th 2013 - Hyde Park, London, UK thread

It's given me hope. A set like Hyde Park in 2011 would be fine, we got Hey God that night, so something else in the Hey God slot would be nice with an encore like Slane

70-30 for me to go to this show. I really want to but I would be gutted if I got another Slane show. Not saying Slane was bad, just expect it to be full of rarities when I should of expected it to be a Gh orientated set list. I have the same feeling about this show.

Hmm, decisions...

Can any one shed any light on what to expect from GC . .is it the same as the football stadiums GC

It must be terrible hearing 'Blood On Blood', 'These Days', 'Saturday Night', 'Always' etc. in one encore.

No-one is saying that.

I heard 3 of them a week before and was made up to hear them again, but it would be nice to get a rarity.

Would you prefer to hear a worse-quality song than say 'These Days', which is probably considered to be one of the best songs the band has ever written?

Mate, I would of been buzzing with 'Loves The Only Rule' at Slane. I know you dislike it, but all it would of took is to hear ONE song that I hadn't heard along them lines to get me buzzing. It didn't even have to be a rarity as big as This Ain't A Love Song.

To answer your question, yes. I was made up to hear These Days at Manchester and I was at Slane so that is out of the equation, really. These Days will always be welcome in set lists, for me.

Fair enough. I totally disagree but that is your opinion and it's a fair one.

I went mental for 'Someday I'll Be Saturday Night' two weeks ago which is a song I always felt I needed to hear, but it's not considered rare. Getting it again in Glasgow would be awesome, and I would not swap that song for say...'Any Other Day'.

But hey, different strokes and all that eh?

Absolutely, same for me. And I would have to add Dry County to that list too. I spent 10+ years going to shows and not hearing that song once. When I finally heard it again at Giants 2006 I was mesmerized during the entire song.

Obviously if I had the choice to swap Born To Follow for something rare, I'd jump at the chance and would love to keep These Days in it.

If I did get Any Other Day (which I have already heard so again, would sooner hear something else) instead of These Days at Slane, I don't think I'd of minded because I was grateful to hear it a week before Slane and it's been 5 years since I heard Any Other Day.

This probably doesn't make any sense
