  1. At some stage or other.
  2. Courtesty of U2gigs:


    Boy: All songs were played live.
    October: Is That All? and Stranger In A Strange Land. The former shared its musical basis with The Cry, a mini-song often played before The Electric Co. A line from the latter was snippeted once.
    War: Drowning Man, The Refugee, and Red Light. Drowning Man was briefly snippeted in 11 O'clock Tick Tock a number of times.
    The Unforgettable Fire: Promenade, 4th Of July, and with one snippet to its name, Elvis Presley And America.
    The Joshua Tree: Red Hill Mining Town.
    Rattle And Hum: Heartland; a few lines from it were snippeted at two concerts.
    Achtung Baby: Acrobat. So-called "live" recordings of Acrobat are sourced from private rehearsals. So Cruel only appeared as a stripped-down song played by Bono solo.
    Zooropa: Some Days Are Better Than Others.
    Pop: Playboy Mansion, from which a couple of lines were snippeted often on Popmart at the end of Where The Streets Have No Name.
    All That You Can't Leave Behind: Grace and When I Look At The World; the latter was snippeted once.
    How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb: One Step Closer.
    No Line On The Horizon: Stand Up Comedy, Fez-Being Born, White As Snow, and Cedars Of Lebanon.
  3. Excited to see these songs performed in concert. I think the live experience will be similar to that of Achtung Baby where the band have released music that will challenge them to perform in a live setting. Waiting to hear Sleep Like a Baby Tonight with that solo from The Edge at the end of the song. I think this will be the concert close!! You can just hear Bono mutter the words "Take care. God Bless" at the end.
  4. Gotta hear all of these live at some point. I much prefer live versions to studio edits.

    Thanks, Sergio! So Cruel also appears as a longish and awesome snippet/part-of-a-medley in Bad, at the famous 1992 Milan concert
  6. This could be a great tour. All of these songs deserve to be played regularly and if they manage to squeeze another album out before the tour that's anything like this, that means they should air 10-12 songs per night worth of new stuff. Couple that with setlist rotations and changes over the legs and it will hopefully be love town part 2

    Well met.

    Hopefully we'll get to see all the songs on this album performed live.
  9. I really would love to hear Cedarwood Road live, the guitar part before the first verse is too good to pass up.
  10. All of them !
  11. I'm afraid Volcano won't work. Like Crazy Tonight didn't work.
  12. Cedarwood Road and Iris would be wonderful.
    And I agree wıth the comment above, Volcano probably will not work.
    The Troubles can work as a main set closer with a guest singer, and that would be lovely.
