U2 began their 25-show residency at the brand new high-tech Sphere venue in Las Vegas last night (see our report and videos). They are back for night two today.

The setlist featured the same 22 songs in the same order as the opening night. This, however, does not mean we don’t have some statistics for you!

So Cruel, which last night set a new record for longest gap between performances (31 years and 14 days), was performed at consecutive gigs for the first time ever. Love Rescue Me was performed on consecutive nights for the first time since it appeared at shows in Rotterdam on 9 and 10 January 1990. Including last night and tonight, it has only been played six times since that show on 10 January 1990.

All I Want Is You has also featured at few consecutive shows on recent tours. It was last played at consecutive shows on 7 and 17 June 2011, in Oakland and Anaheim respectively, and it was last played on consecutive days on 1 and 2 March 2006 in Buenos Aires. Tonight, it featured an extended snippet of Walk on the Wild Side.

Also, one detail about Beautiful Day that we did not mention yesterday: although these two shows are the first full concerts that Beautiful Day has closed, 22nd is not the latest it has ever appeared in a setlist. On the Innocence+Experience Tour, it also featured in the encore, but not as the last song: the latest it came was 25th on 18 October 2015, when it was followed by Bad and 40. That show set a record (since equalled but not surpassed) for longest U2 concert by number of songs.

The full setlist tonight was:

1. Mysterious Ways / I Feel Love (snippet)
2. / Love Me Tender (snippet)
3. Until the End of the World / Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien (snippet)
4. Love Is Blindness / Viva Las Vegas (snippet)

encore(s):

5. / My Way (snippet)
6. Moment of Surrender (snippet) / Where the Streets Have No Name
7. With or Without You / Nothing Compares 2 U (snippet)
8. Beautiful Day / What a Wonderful World (snippet)
