    in reference to Walk On though just look at how many variations there is in the lengths of liver performances. If Bono skipped a verse for example the piano would play on and fuck everything up so I reckon a mystery man is underneath that stage
  2. Safe to say whoever was playing keyboards for "One" on Popmart probably got fired.

    Listen at 2:05 into the song...



    and then at 1:20 into this one...

    Right, but it does change eventually. Check out those Popmart clips I posted above.

    True, although I don't want to bang on about the endless possibilities and answers lol...

    Either way, it would be nice to get a straightforward definitive answer from the band lol...
  5. for all our sakes try and get the discussion back to DC or continue this one elsewhere. If Dan comes on we are all f**ked

    It's somewhat related, isn't it? We're answering my question about the synth cutting out in Bad......

    DC is a great bootleg - if you haven't got it, make a point of doing so. It may not be a refined performance but it's a great one

    related but on a whole different tangent. Do what you are told boy

    I might be outnumbered, but I still have that hook....
  12. In a bit of insomnia, I listened to Bad, the transition from RTSS to Streets, and WOWY.

    Bad: I'm still bothered by the somewhat sloppy performance
    RTSS - Streets: Amazing. This just might push me over the edge to say that this lead in was better than "Please" on Popmart. I love the static and the changing TV stations.
    WOWY: Is there anything wrong with this song? I can't hear anything. Wish they would have kept the extended solo bit right before "Shine Like Stars."
