I've always wondered that. What I've heard is a small excerpt of it (more than a snippet) of about two or three minutes. Maybe the sound effects are too hard to recreate live, properly, or the song is far too long for live and fitting other long(er) songs in too.
I think this is the list I have of the songs, alphabetically for each album (Boy - No Line) that haven't ever been played live or just snippeted.
Achtung Baby
Lady With The Spinning Head
Salome

But anyway, it doesn't count as a live performance at all as long as there was no official public during the performance (that's why Acrobat doesn't count either). Originally posted by MWSAH:[..]
The UF-tour had it complete, as did JT. Bono Bullshit then...lol
