and i think the best thing U2 could do at glasto IS play some of their more obscure 90's stuff - the haters and doubters will be expecting to hear the songs they already dislike U2 for (songs that they have heard on the radio/seen on the tv in the last 10 or so years) - if they pull out some of their more interesting, daring, obscure stuff it will take all the doubters, haters and casuals by surprise and show them there is a different side to the band. obviously i'm not saying they should play a whole set of obscure album tracks and bsides and stuff from passengers but i think the should seriously consider throwing in 2 or 3 curveballs...
i remember back in 97 when they played that amazing version of Mofo at the mtv awards in rotterdam thinking i wonder how many people in that non U2 crowd expected to hear something like that!?! i feel the same about glastonbury.
even if they play some of their more well known but forgotten stuff like HMTMKMKM i think it will still make people think "oh yeah i totally forgot about this song! i actually liked this song"...

.I like older music.I do not think there are so many fans for this new album on the horizon. I think fans can be happy to see U2 and not be upset at what songs they perform

Bring on Last Night On Earth, Dirty Day, Miami, Mofo, Even Better Than The Real Thing, The Fly, Discotheque...
