comment: U2 perform on in the ballroom of a riverboat as it sails along the Mississippi River. Before this concert, U2 meet Dutch photographer Anton Corbijn and do a photo shoot on the boat's deck. This is the start of the band's lengthy relationship with Corbijn.

The location of the other songs in the set is unknown. An advertisement for the show states that one of the opening acts is called Interview, however a newspaper review states a band called Network joined Standing Waves as an opener.

setlist not available

02/15/1982 Cardi's - Houston, Texas, USA
setlist not available

02/16/1982 Cardi's - Dallas, Texas, USA
Southern Man
comment: Before the concert, Bono hears Neil Young's Southern Man on the radio and likes it enough that he encourages the band not only to soundcheck it, but to actually perform it that very night. The band goes along with Bono, and because he knows few of the song's lyrics, Bono pulls a fan on stage to help him out during the concert. No other songs from the soundcheck or actual concert are known.

02/17/1982 Jammys - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA
Gloria, I Will Follow, 11 O'Clock Tick Tock, The Ocean, Southern Man
