And you said it: it's boring when Edge and Bono belt out the acoustic interlude, but what about a full band treat, maybe with an orchestra? The possibilities open wide... Plenty of great songs that wouln't fit an all-rock show, plenty of different arrangements for the all time classics... Maybe it's just me, but I just love the perspective that opens. Anything new is always good.

Not unlike Sting's Symphonicities, where songs were reimagined in a symphonic style... U2 could do interesting things with an acoustic show with a string/orchestral accompaniment. They could present songs in a simple, bare, acoustic way as well as in grander, surging symphonic styles. Whatever they plan to do, I trust them to be magnificent.
