Angel Of Harlem receives its first pre-planned performance since 1 December 2001; its previous Vertigo appearance on 29 October 2005 occurred after a fan was pulled on stage to play guitar. This is U2's first appearance in Australia since February 1998.

comment: I Will Follow finally returns to the Vertigo setlist for the first time since being dumped after the fourth leg's first show in Monterrey. Party Girl is played for the first time since November 2005 and is very ramshackle due to a lack of rehearsal. The band rehearse it before its next appearance six days later in Melbourne - and at that show, Bono claimed this performance took place in Adelaide.

comment: Originally scheduled for 25 March 2006. The First Time was played at the suggestion of Willie Williams. Last performance of Party Girl until 2 July 2009. It had previously been performed in very ramshackle style six days earlier in Sydney after not being played for over a year, but this performance is clearly more rehearsed. Bono tries to pin the poorly rehearsed Party Girl on the Adelaide show. At the end of this concert, Edge exclaims "thank you, SYDNEY!"

comment: U2's first concert in Hawaii since 11 March 1985. Originally scheduled for 8 April 2006. Rockin' In The Free World was performed with Eddie Vedder and Mike McCready of Pearl Jam. The Saints Are Coming was performed with Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day. Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses was performed with a male fan, Michael Mitchell, on piano (the same fan who played piano during Yahweh on 14 December 2005). Mr Mitchell had a sign stating he could do a piano version of WGRYWH, but Bono pulled him on stage near the end of Angel Of Harlem, hoping he can play that song instead. Mr Mitchell didn't know it, so after asking Edge if he could remember the chords of WGRYWH, Bono decided they could play Mr Mitchell's chosen song instead. This show features the last performances of numerous songs: The First Time, Love And Peace Or Else, Rockin' In The Free World, The Saints Are Coming, Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own, and Window In The Skies. Bullet The Blue Sky is not performed again until 8 May 2015, Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses not until 2 May 2018.
