U2 warms up with free Los Angeles concert

U2 played a Saturday (3/28) dress rehearsal at the Los Angeles Sports Arena for radio-contest winners, and also admitted some fans who had lined up outside the venue in hopes of catching the performance.

According to reports from the performance, U2 opened with "City of Blinding Lights," followed by "The Electric Co.," "An Cat Dubh/Into the Heart," "Beautiful Day," "Miracle Drug," "Sometimes You Can't Make it On Your Own" and "Love and Peace or Else."

Other songs on the setlist included "Elevation," "Stuck In a Moment," "Yaweh," "Bullet the Blue Sky," "Running to Stand Still," "Zoo Station," "The Fly" and "Vertigo."

The five-song encore included "Pride (In the Name of Love)," "Where the Streets Have No Name," "One," "All Because Of You" and "40."

A message on U2's website said that Saturday's show may provide clues to what the band will play on its upcoming tour, which launches Monday (3/28) in San Diego, "but everything could change."

Band manager Paul McGuinness said in a statement: "The tour set list will definitely be about half of the new album. We're not about cabaret or greatest hits. People are expecting the new songs because they are on the radio and at the top of the charts."
