Edge plays UTEOTW live with a capo on the third fret, doesn't he? Well, I have my guitar tuned standard, eBGDAE, and I play in tune to the song with capo on second!! Is his Les Paul tuned 1/2 step down (Eb) or what?? Because the song is in F#, not in G, I can swear that!
Just a bit of rambling, sorry and thanks in advance

I'm pretty sure on the ZooTV tour, and perhaps the Popmart tour, i haven't checked, it was half a step down with the capo on the third. But during elevation, (and probably vertigo tours) it was standard tuning with a capo on third.

As the POG 2 has pre-sets, perhaps we will see one or more in The Edge's gear for the U2:360 tour?
POG2 - Polyphonic Octave Generator
Back in 2005, Electro-Harmonix unveiled the original POG, a polyphonic octave generator that enabled guitarists to conjure everything from the surreal jangle of an 18-string guitar, to rich, thick walls of symphonic sound.
The POG2 will take you even higher. Use the new attack control to fade in lush, smooth swells. Tune in the new second sub-octave to reach deeper than ever before. The 2-pole resonant low-pass filter now includes two additional Q modes. Slide in the newly enhanced detune to further refine your sound.
The POG2 delivers unrivaled tonal variations -- and now you can save your favorite settings, and recall them with a click. The POG2 just plain sounds better, thanks to an enhanced algorithm that delivers a more focused and in-the-pocket harmonic performance. And all this is now packed into our rugged and pedalboard-friendly diecast chassis.
From the E-H official site.

What songs apart from UTEOTW has Edge used his Les Paul goldtop in??
He's rehearsing with it in Barcelona, but UTEOTW hasn't appeared on the rehearsals at all...

...ipretty sure that there is the Les Paul Music Rising. You can tell by the finish and the wood truss rod cover.
