    Check out the last Sydney show (2006-11-13) for a great Kite, and some of the early shows in 1981 to 1985 for some awesome soundboard songs. It's something I'd like to do as well.

    Welcome, by the way!

    Most songs = 30 or more
    CD = 17 - 20 songs

    I'd gladly make a a 20 Best-Songs list for you, but please tell me WHICH songs
  4. I'd take your 20 personal favorites and look on the song pages which are the best versions of those songs

    But:
    Mysterious Ways: ZooTV Stockholm
    BTBS: PopMart Leeds or Elevation Arnhem, first night..ZooTV Dublin is great too
    I Will Follow: Lovetown Point Depot, 27 December
    UTEOTW: ZooTV Stockholm (but you should also get WGRYWH then, segue is great!)

    For instance...
  5. thnks guys ill check those out, i dont really have a list of 20, im just after some amazing live versions of any u2 song, ofcourse there needs to be a fly, WTSHNN, WOWY, BD, bad, vertigo, AIWIY,LAPOE/SBS, these r normally great live, but what u2 songs arent?
    maybe this will have to be a 2-disc project. thnks again for the suggestions.

    I would have Walk On and Stay in there, Walk On from Elevation New York 25th show, Stay from The Zoo TV Sydney or Dublin Show.

  7. Welcome, Andrew
    Let me say it's a very difficult choice
    However, regarding HTDAAB tour, in my opinion you should consider Yahweh from Paris
    (an amazing guitar sound by Edge), Vertigo and I Will Follow from Milan (great audience reactions to Bono's words), Sunday Bloody Sunday and Where The Streets Have No Name from Chicago (for Bono's voice). But it's like a drop in the ocean

    I'm really sorry for my english... I'm Italian
  8. Mofo from either Leeds or Mexico
  9. very hard ive tried doing these many times.
    try making a fake setlist is my approach

    Zoo Station (off the Window In The Skies single)
    Vertigo (2005 Live from Milan) #2
    Elevation (Slane Castle)
    Mysterious Ways (ZOO TV Stockholm)
    Gloria (Live from Hammersmith Palais or Red Rocks)
    I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (Rattle and Hum version)
    Beautiful Day (Slane Castle or Chicago)
    New Year's Day (Chicago or Red Rocks)
    Sunday Bloody Sunday (red rocks)
    Bullet the Blue Sky (Chicago or Slane or Rattle and Hum)
    Bad (Live from anywhere!)
    Where the Streets Have No Name (any version)
    Pride (In the Name of Love) (the one of rattle and hum sounds good)
    The Fly (Live from Buenos Aires or Chicago or Sao Paolo)
    With or Without You (Live from Slane Castle or any version that fits to end the first encore)
    Miss Sarajevo (2005 Live from Milan)

    here are some suggestions... its really hard to try and make u2 songs fit into a CD.
  10. If you don't mind snippets, I'd recommend either 2005-12-05 Boston or 2005-05-18 East Rutherford for great versions of Vertigo.
  11. Does he only want soundboards or live albums and DVD rips??? i think it should all be in the same quality because its gonna sound weird if it goes all over the place cuz some sources are louder than others.
