December 26, 1989 – Dublin, Ireland – Point Depot

Opening Act(s): B.B. King
Setlist:
God Part II, Desire, All Along The Watchtower, All I Want Is You, Where The Streets Have No Name, Gloria, I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For, MLK, One Tree Hill, Van Diemen’s Land, Bullet The Blue Sky, Running To Stand Still, New Year’s Day, Pride (In The Name Of Love). Encore(s): Angel Of Harlem, When Love Comes To Town, With Or Without You, 40.
Remarks:
The verse Bono sings at the end of One Tree Hill is completely improvised; it is not a snippet. Part of a William Wordsworth poem is read at the start of Where The Streets Have No Name in tribute to the recently deceased Irish poet Samuel Beckett. This show features the first use of God Part II as an opener – the only other time it takes this role is on January 5, 1990 in Rotterdam.
