    No reason they can't. If they can still play they can keep going if they want. Look at BB King and James Brown until he died - he had a show coming up the next day!!!


    don't forget michael jackson

    They were/are more of a novelty act back then/now as opposed to an actual musical force taking the world. Plus, BB King doesn't sing high like Bono has to, if you want to listen to Pride 6 steps down and with raspy voice, be my guest


    just let edge sing the whole song.
  3. My proposition of setlist:

    Intro (Kingdom)
    Breathe
    No Line On The Horizon
    Magnificent
    Unknown Caller
    Drowning Man
    Beautiful Day
    Stand Up Comedy

    Mysterious Ways (Acoustic)
    Vertigo (Acoustic)
    One (Acoustic)

    MLK
    The Unforgettable Fire
    City Of Blinding Lights
    Get On Your Boots
    I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight (Remix)
    Bullet The Blue Sky
    White As Snow
    Where The Streets Have No Name
    Pride (In The Name Of Love)

    Ultra Violet (Light My Way)
    With Or Without You
    Moment of Surrender
  7. I don't want to hear Crazy Tonight Remix anymore... It was great, but mainly because it was a big surprise. Now I'm getting fed up with it. Instead, I'd like to hear Pop material. But it could be interesting to hear the Album Version of Crazy though. It fitted well the encore in Barcelona II I think.
  8. Two months before the start. It's time to go to the studio and rehearse (Mofo-Exit-LNOE-ES).
  10. In that Rolling Stone news Edge was quoted that they want to develop and adapt the stage show and setlist. So my guess/HOPE would be that they, say, change (at least) 5-7 songs for the "standard" setlist. Why not changing some Greatest Hits to keep the casual concert attendant pleased....maybe

    Mysterious Ways --> Even Better Than The Real Thing
    Pride --> I Will Follow

  11. 18 days though. But still...who woulda thought right then he had to cark it?

    As for acoustic, Mysterious Ways would be nice but Vertigo - electric or nothing.
  12. I don't think they'll stop playing Walk On. Because of the meaning with Aung San Suu Kyi... But it was so powerful during Elevation, now it is so boring !
