    ok i'll use a couple of my favourite bootlegs as an example here:

    i'm sure you've heard ZooTV Dublin and Popmart Leeds?

    Well theres no drawn out speeches or preaching there, just AMAZING music! doesnt make me think of the rolling stones though! to me its U2 doing what they do best without any political baggage etc and unfortunately after the last couple of tours its F*CKING refreshing to hear compared to these days...

    Rolling Stones was just an example of a boring band without political meaning

    Yep, heard those, brilliant gigs indeed
    But that doesn prove a thing, does it?
    Vertigo Saitama is brilliant too.
    Elevation had a couple of awesome gigs.
    And PopMart Santiago was awesome...had quite some politics in it
    Same for PopMart Sarajevo..
    Lovetown shows were quite political, and some of those were brilliant (Point Depot, Rotterdam)

    So I dont think their music gets affected by it..

    TIP: Listen to Sunday Bloody Sunday on 2001-07-31, Arnhem. 10 minutes, pure politics, but you'll love it

  10. WOWY sucked sometimes on ZooTV, specially on Sydney DVD.
  11. EastLink says the show started at 10pm without any long breaks or Bono-chatter.

    Popmart sarajevo and santiago were special events and deserved whatever was said and brought up at those gigs!

    I dont mind a bit of a message being peppered over tours or at special gigs but the whole SBS act thing and the billl of human rights pissed me off on the last tour. Same when i saw U23D - on the whole it was great but the bono speech in SBS (i think) ruined for me! and i reckon it will be the same with this desmond tutu speech! i know tutu is a great man but i dont need to be reminded of that at every show i go to on this tour!

    all i'm saying is there were no particular segments as a permanent part of the set on tours like ZOOtv and PopMart (apart from the brief sarajevo link ups which were dropped pretty much for the reason i'm pointing out now!)

    and i liked that and U2 still managed to be U2 without these permanent political segments in the set
