Just had the Lisbon 2011 show on in the background, ended up watching lots of it. Great show, great party and it was the same in Dublin for the two shows that tour with the set changing a lot for each night. I Believe, This Aint a Love Song, Prayer then into Always! Jon's voice sadly could not handle this any more I don't think, but when at the end of the show, everyone is singing the words so it will probably drown him out. Even I love this town was good for some reason, I think cos of the party mood.
I am attending Wembley and the Sat night in Dublin. I hope both will be special shows again. Wembley, Jon needs to pull a proverbial rabbit out of the hat and be awesome, hits and rare songs to put the record straight for missing out opening it. Dublin, I hope with it being a Saturday night he will equally be in the mood to grant us a great set list. The critics will be sharpening the pencils and he does not have the awesome 2013 stage to impress so it has to be hits, tight band, fun, a crowd in the palm of the hand and half decent vocals. Personally I would start with a few big hits and spread them out through the set so the energy is maintained, not too many lows rather than 3/4 slow/mid tempo songs in a row. Then finish with a final flourish.....then pretend you haven't planned an encore to encore and a couple of rarish tunes, like a Blood on Blood, crowd to be buzzing when they leave.
Meanwhile back in 2019..... :-)
