Tue, July 25, 2017 in Paris, France @ Stade De France
I went to Dublin and Paris to see 3 amazing shows by U2 (Saturday on Dublin and then Tuesday and Wednesday in Paris) from the "The Joshua Tree Tour 2017".
Celebrating 30 Years of "The Joshua Tree".
"The Joshua Tree transformed U2 into superstars. U2 is celebrating the album’s thirtieth anniversary with a world tour. The original album tackled weighty real-world topics. Bono and company want to connect the music to right now — to global anxieties about, immigration, human rights, and governmental regimes."
"But The Joshua Tree transformed U2 into superstars, with hit singles “With or Without You,” “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” and “Where the Streets Have No Name”. It was their first album to hit No. 1 on the U.S. album chart. U2 found themselves on the cover of Time magazine. A Grammy was awarded to the music video for “Streets,” shot on top of a Los Angeles liquor store. And when it was all said and done, The Joshua Tree sold more than 25,000,000 copies worldwide, was awarded the Grammy for Album of the Year, and contributed to U2 entering the discussion for greatest rock band ever. When Rolling Stone Magazine compiled its list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, five U2 albums were listed, with The Joshua Tree ranked No. 27 (U2’s highest presence on the list)."
"In 2017, U2 is celebrating the album’s thirtieth anniversary with a world tour that spans 33 shows for an estimated 1.7 million fans. But these Dubliners have no desire to present The Joshua Tree tour as a museum piece. Bono and company want to connect the music to right now — to global anxieties about labor, immigration, human rights, governmental regimes, and the environment."

Saw them 11 times before in other places, my Country and even other Countries.
Before "U2", played "Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds", they played 52 minutes.
Noel the member of the band "Oasis" (1991–2009).
U2, played for 127 minutes. Played 22 songs.
They were awesome live doing this stadium show. Amazing sound.
1st show I was Pitch 1 on the right corner of the VIP area just on front row.
2nd show I was 1st row corner of the B Stage (Tree Stage) with Larry Mullen drums just ahead of me.
3rd show I was on the stands with a Gold Hot Ticket from VIP Nation.
Here it is the setlist with intro from u2.gigs (http://www.u2gigs.com/article1207.html):
Today, U2 performed their first of two concerts in Paris. This is their first visit to France since the two special shows on 6 and 7 December 2015, which were postponed after the terrorist attack on an Eagles of Death Metal concert, and at the second of which Eagles of Death Metal made a guest appearance.
At both of those concerts in 2015, U2 performed a full cover of Patti Smith's People Have the Power, once with Patti and once with Eagles of Death Metal. At today's show Patti Smith again joined U2, but for Mothers of the Disappeared, during which she added extended snippets of People Have the Power. This is the second guest appearance in Mothers of the Disappeared after Eddie Vedder and Mumford and Sons joined the band on 14 May 2017.
The setlist was unchanged from that played in Dublin and Barcelona. This is the second time this tour that three consecutive shows have had setlists identical in songs and order, after the shows in Miami, Tampa, and Louisville on 11, 14, and 16 June.
