    maybe thats one of the new instruments that will be big with the album... steel guitar is awesome! So many good songs from them (Time Is Passing, No Expectations).

    ok, the difference between steel guitar and slide is steel is the table guitar as Aaron said

    a slide guitar is someone playing a guitar, but with a slide guitar thingy (for lack of a better word) on their finger to change chord sounds

    Mercy will probably be a good song, i hope so (saved?)

    It could be on the new album, but I doubt it. Bono said it would be released officially and it already has been released - as a B-side to Smile (a single in Chile, if I remember right).

    When was that?

    By the way, re. the Smile single, I thought that was a fake?
