    Bring them back boys!


    Can take or leave Walk On but Stay could be due after having a break during Vertigo but only in full electric and not as some sort of B-stage distraction. They've gotta do it properly.

    Ahh, I fear our critical similarities go astray somewhat here mate! I think there's something magical about the acoustic versions, but I have to say that an all-electric version would be rather wicked

    I second that!! The acoustic just lacks something to me. I do love the acoustic Walk On though.
  4. Like A Song,
    Tommorrow,
    Heartland,
    Hawkmoon 269,
    Discotheque,
    Stoires For Boys,
    A Sort Of Homecoming,
    Red Hill Ming Town,
    Dirty Day,
    Ultraviolet (Light My Way),
    Exit,
    Do You Feel Loved,
    Even Better Than The Real Thing,
    One Tree Hill.

    All very good, all very unlikely.

    I would say some one of them are possible. Discotheque, EBTTRT, One Tree Hill could realistically be found on future setlists. Unfortunately others are less likely eg ASOH, UV
  6. I hope they still play STYCMIOYO, I never really liked that song until this month. Also Ultra Violet, and Lemon, and the Wonderer, so essentially anything Achtung or Zooropa
  7. So the reason they don't play Ultraviolet is because the guitar is to complicated. Right? I was listening to it recently, and started wondering if they could make it work acoustically. It would be radically different, but it could work. Would be great right before 40.
  8. They should start covering Behind Blue Eyes by The Who. I think it would be a good choice for them. Maybe let Edge sing lead.

    No man, that really doesn't sound good at all...Ultra Violet was magic on Zoo TV and if they don't play it electrically they better don't play it at all. I really prefer electric over acoustic anyhow. What's the deal of writing very complicated drums, bass and guitar on which they've spent a lot of time mixing until it sounds perfect, when you're going to strip it all down to some simple guitar melody which sounds very much alike acoustic performances of other songs? If it's too complicated for them to play, that's too bad, but then they should only maybe include it as a snippet.

    I'll gladly help them out

    They didn't lol...it didn't get played that much but it definitely got played!

    Try 2001-10-10 - South Bend, Indiana - Joyce Center for a start, AWESOME gig and a great version

    2001-10-30 - Providence, Rhode Island - Providence Civic Center
    2001-11-18 - Las Vegas, Nevada - Thomas And Mack Arena (great version of Bad aswell, with an awesome snippet of WGRYWH)



    Oh, I know they did play Still Havent Found... just wished it was played with that awesome version of the Fly! My #1 and #2 fav songs, the only show is Chicago 2001-05-16. It's in que for download. Shame the Fly isn't the closer.

    I think that if they do play Stuck in a Moment, it should be like the album version, or the Elevation version whatever you want to call it. The acoustic version is nice, but just doesn't do it for me.
