  1. So I did some research, here's what I found:

    The Even Better than the Real Thing intro started in a lower key, but that lower key got lost in the swamps and never found its way out of Florida. It was played in a lower key for the 1st two dates of the tour. On the second night, in Miami, it was supposedly started in an even lower key, then changed to a higher pitch on the 3rd night. From Charlotte to Sydney it was played this way, the way we've all heard it.

    To me, the way they played EBTTRT the first two nights was to be exactly like the studio version. But Florida does things to ya, trust me. I lost my old scream singing voice down there, but kinda glad I did. My new voice is much better, and others love it!

    I never realized that! Well, I realized the different piches between live & album, but not to that extent. I never could scream, I can only sing in a high voice while playing guitar (I know: ) other wise, I sound like crap

    Back in the old days when I listened to the Who, and had mastered the Wont Get Fooled Again scream. Kinda miss that, not so much anymore. Singing Still Havent Found is much better.

    Ouch......... I only scream during a song when its necessary, like in EBTTRT, sometimes. Either that or the high pitch thing.

    YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA................

    Meet the new boss, same as the old boss........

    Fun times,

    I was at my peak when I lost the scream thing. I was able to pull off Water, also by the Who. Then I went to Disney for a week and lost it. I think it was a sign......

    Because compared to how I used to sing and now, people actually like my singing now.

    Imagine the Sydney DVD if it did,

    Bono as the Fly dancing with Edges future wife, singing to her the love chorus.

    I remember the first time I heard Won't Get Fooled Again. It was my first Who song, the song that got me into them. I was flipping through the channels when CSI: Miami comes on. I went to that channel exactly when the scream started. Only some people like mine... most of my friends like it, all but one
