I completely disagree. When they do Streets I think you can tell they are enjoying themselves.

I totally agree. Watching the Rose Bowl or Gelsenkirchen DVDs is pure bliss.
I might be the only one, but I could live without One. And Pride. I rather think they are bored playing Sunday Bloody Sunday, not always, but sometimes.

I believe most of the time the classics are boring. Even if One and Streets from the Rose Bowl are good performances for the Vertigo/360 period, they are only average performances if you think about ZooTV, Popmart, or even the passion you could find in it during Elevation.
I think they can't make a show without One and Streets, but they can without SBS or Pride. These are at the same level as New Year's Day, for instance.

I wouldn't even mind if they ran out every classic they wanted to play SBS, Pride, IWF, NYD, Streets, Bad, WOWY, ISHF. All are great songs that I wouldn't mind hearing at a show. It's when they consistently run out songs like Stuck and Elevation that i get aggravated. If you're going to play the songs you think the audience wants to hear at every show, at least play the ones that are your best work.

I think people want this to happen so much, they're believing it will. I'm not saying I don't want it to, but people are seeming to think this is a probability. It's been snippeted, and I believe there was at the very least a rumor that they rehearsed it in some format, but look at Drowning Man- full rehearsals, pretty solid set position throughout the fortnight they spent in Barca with it, and not even a GLIMPSE of it on tour so far. You never know what they'll do or not do, and at this point, Mofo is just as likely as them playing In Gods Country in full again- they've snippeted that, too.
Fact of the matter is that I'm not getting my hopes up for it, because I think it's one of those songs that's pretty tour-specific.

I think they'll crack and play something from Pop but I will, however, be (pleasantly) surprised if it's Mofo - not "popular" enough amongst the masses.
