Chicago

The main set was largely similar to last night’s set (Tue. 20 Sept.), with "Who’s Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses" taking the slot that "Walk On" appeared in yesterday. Bono did an "a capella" version of "In a Little While", singing a bit less than half the song unaccompanied by the band. The encores, however, were quite different: "Bad/The First Time", a lovely rendition of "Original of the Species", "With or Without You", and a spirited "Fast Cars" were the first encore (Bono pulled a woman out of the audience to dance with for this last song), and "All Because of You" and "40" closed the show for the second encore. A very good show, but a bit of a letdown after their 12 May show here in Chicago — I had hoped they would stray from their standard setlist a bit more as they did when closing in Chicago in the spring. I moved to a great viewing position for the last half of the show, and I will upload some pictures ASAP.
