It's been almost a year since our first update, but don't be fooled by the quiet: The @U2 Tours crew has been busy listening to live recordings of every U2 concert (that has a live recording available) to make sure we have the most accurate U2 concert setlists possible on our website.

We still have work to do, but with U2 on a break, now's a good time to let you know what tours we've finished listening to and what changes we've made to our setlists.

Tour Updates Completed

Here's the second set of tour setlists that we've finished updating:

• October
• Joshua Tree
• Lovetown
• Vertigo

That's in addition to the updates we announced last year:

• Boy
• Pre-War & War
• The Unforgettable Fire
• A Conspiracy Of Hope
• Zoo TV: Leg 1
• 360

As our crew listens to live recordings of every U2 show possible, we also have some fantastic discussions and debates over what we hear Bono singing and whether we should add it to the setlist as a snippet, or even a new song altogether.

Here's an incomplete list of what we've added to the newly-finished tours listed above:

October

• the first occasion that "My Kind Of Town" was snippeted
• the first time Bono sang a snippet of "Long Way To Tipperary"
• the only occasion that Bono sang a snippet of "I Left My Heart In San Francisco"
• the only time that Bono has sung a snippet of a Jerry Lee Lewis song
• more than 50 instances of "Cry"
• more than 50 instances of "Send In The Clowns"

Joshua Tree

• the first snippets of Alice Cooper's "School's Out"
• the only known time that Bono has snippeted "Ball And Chain" by Janis Joplin
• the first snippet of Harry Nilsson's "Turn On Your Radio", which wasn't snippeted again until the Innocence + Experience tour in 2015
• eight occasions when "Light My Fire" was snippeted
• the only time Bono has sung a snippet of a Kenny Rogers song
• the only known snippet of "Hallelujah Here She Comes"
• the only known snippet of Simple Minds' "Book Of Brilliant Things"

Lovetown

• 12 shows where Bono sang a bit of "So You Want To Be A Rock 'N' Roll Star"
• the first five occasions that Bono snippeted a soap opera theme song called "Neighbors"
• the first two times Bono sang a bit of "Waltzing Matilda"
• the only show that included a snippet of "Sealed With A Kiss"
• the only known show with a snippet of The Doors' "Five To One"

Vertigo

• 11 occasions when Blondie's "Call Me" was snippeted
• the only time "Native Son" was sung as a snippet (during "Vertigo," no less)
• that one time Bono sang a bit of "Hot In Herre"
• the only time that The Skids' "Into The Valley" was snippeted
• five occasions that Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" was snippeted
• the first two times that Bono sang a bit of "Summer Rain"
• the only time that "Billy Boola" was snippeted

Other Updates

As has been the case all along, we're not just updating setlists and snippets. We're adding attendance figures when we can find them (like this show), full concert videos when we can find them (like May 28, 1987 in Rome) and much more. We're also tagging every show where Bono sang "shine like stars" during "With Or Without You," something we don't list as a snippet because it's not from another song, but we know fans want to know when that extra verse is sung.

How You Can Help

There are a couple ways you can get involved:

1.) Create your account and U2 fan profile page on the Tours site. It's super easy to do, but we have instructions online to help you get started just in case. Once your profile is setup, find the U2 shows you've been to and click the link to indicate that you were there. Add reviews and photos or, if you wrote reviews long ago over at U2tours.com, claim those so they can be added to your profile.

2.) Suggest great YouTube videos that we should link to from our concert detail pages. Here's what we're looking for.

We've got more work to do, but we invite you to check out the finished tours listed above, create your own fan profile page (here's mine) and enjoy the site!
