    Edmonton 1997 there’s an Ultraviolet snippet.

    Bono sings “sometimes I feel”

    I tweeted U2gigs saying there’s a Stay snippet in Streets, Paris 2001-07-17 - Bono sings “Faraway, So Close!” at the end but they felt it wasn’t a snippet.

    Ridiculous.
  3. ...and the proper "Love, Reign o'er Me" snippet in UTEOTW of the first night is completely ignored...

  5. O, and I probably missed this, but what exactly is "Introduction (snippet)" supposed to mean?

    I was also by the E stage, Adam's side. Shot some live video for our Instagram.

    Show ripped. It was so much fun. Have a few beers and smoke some funny stuff and go see U2.
    Jazz cigarettes?
  7. Thats cause Edge uses a Digitech Whammy WH-1 on both tracks. Tom Morello uses one too. Listen to Like a Stone solo by Audioslave and you will hear the sound.
  8. Introduction
    Opening poem to Blake's Songs of Experience collection. It is sometimes known by the title Hear the Voice of the Bard, after its first line. U2 used the poem in entirety for their track Beautiful Ghost (Introduction to Songs of Experience).

    So basically Bono reciting this poem just before Until The End Of The World.

    Ah! Thanks

    (But why, then, not called it "Beautiful Ghost"...? ...nevermind... )
  10. Because the poem is named Introduction

    I suggested some snippets to them and they kayboshed them. I entered them into my own U2gigs database. Its the *real* database.
  12. Yes, but "Introduction" is a generic name used for a zillion texts of all sorts. This while "Beautiful Ghost" is actually a U2 track with the same verse. Naming it "Beautiful Ghost" would directly refer to the proper content.

    I mean, there is a even a strong precident for the name "Beautiful Ghost (Introduction To The Songs Of Experience)" because it is how U2 themselves added it to their catalogue.
