    Only going from recordings and videos, the one in Glasgow was the best yet.

    If only they remembered how good it was on Elevation and did it in that style in that sort of sound - the single version is the one I mean. This current way is a bit boring and uninspired and just doesn't do it for me. And the worst thing is a boring version of a potentially great song ruined by lack of interest - they're doing it for Sung Kyi so why not put some fucking passion into it?

    I also think the band must have found a copy of ATYCLB in the garage - seriously, FIVE songs from that album and nearly all the worst, and yet six from your new album, which if they bothered to try Stand Up the audience might recieve that one a lot better, mainly because they want to hear something funky and catchy. None of the reunion songs bar Elevation are that.
  2. I do wish they would do MLK into Streets like at the Superbowl.

    I don't get it either. You love ATYCLB so much yet for some reason your not playing arguably the best song off of it. Kite. I can't complain about them not playing Stand Up though, i think it's weak, but still worthy of a try once maybe.

    I agree about Elevation, it should be Vertigo OR Elevation. Not both in one night. Yeah, I think MoFo could come in for the Crazy Tonight mix. Gone should be after COBL which shouldn´t be dropped. keep COBL, Ultraviolet and TUF and rotate more the acoustic song which is easier to surprise the crowd. Have B memorize the lyrics a week b4 and just run through it with Edge a few times. We could have IGWSHA, Staring at the Sun, Wild Horses and maybe October there.


  7. "Vertigo" is the "Beautiful Day" of HTDAAB. Don't expect it to disappear anytime soon, IMO.

    And yeah...time for a change? Couldn't agree more. Removing Ultraviolet? Every tour has a staple. Bringing back "Zoo Station" and "The Fly" for Vertigo Tour was arguably the high point of the show...I'd say same goes for UV. Maybe switch up the positioning, and not play it EVERY night...but to remove it would be terrible.

    I say add EBTTRT where "Elevation" is now. Rotate TUF and WGRYWH (in full electric form) by night/city.

    Stand Up might be like a Fast Cars or Crumbs From Your Table-type performance. Kite and When I Look At The World should be played instead of Stuck.

    Even Better was being rehearsed somewhere earlier this year. I reckon it'll make a comeback probably in Europe, though in America it would be just as good.
  9. I still love people moaning about a "boring" setlist. Everyone was all hyped up after Barcelona 1 and that setlist was even a tad more boring than it is now lol...
    I recall people saying 'it was the best gig ever', and now, with a slightly improved setlist it's 'boring'?
    Please, give me your tickets then, I know I'll enjoy lol

    Because we take the tour as a whole (we don't consider one show isolated of the rest) , and not changing (much) the setlist in 10 or more concerts is boring. But just because we're hooked up to the web and we know what they've played at the moment. The setlist itself is fantastic (apart of some songs, we all know).

    I don't agree with the songs to be taken out.

    I should take out:

    - Breathe: No line on the horizon or Mofo as opener
    - With or without you
    - Sunday bloody Sunday
    - Walk on
