  1. Yeah, I would put it to the ice for a while and give chance to another song. Last time SBS was good was on Elevation tour.


  2. Thats interesting. The first with a specific date. I still have not seen any reliable sources cited from anyone though...
  3. If SBS comes back, I hope they utilize its full potential as a platform for some amazing snippets. I really likee the Elevation Tour and 360 Tour performances specifically because of those snippets.

    I also wouldn't be opposed to the idea of letting it take a rotation slot this next tour.
  4. A song shouldn't stay in a band's repertoire only as an excuse to include other bands' snippets.
  5. Only songs they should be dropping is BD, Elevation, Vertigo, MW unless they bring slide solo back, and COBL

    U2 will start his tour in South America, March 2017
    For the first time, the return to the stage of ‪#‎u2‬ will be in South America, where they're premiering "songs of experience".

    In the month of March, the Irish will debut to the continuation of the innocence + experience tour. This time in format 'Outdoors' (open stadiums), The tour will start in South America where will premiere to the songs of "songs of experience", Their next album.

    sources close to Live Nation (producer of the concerts of U2, Madonna The Rolling Stones, among others) have informed us that the tour planned for North America in the period September - November 2016 is suspended and that the band will return to the stage until the beginning of 2017 and in South American soil!

    According to tell us, the more likely it is that the tour start in Buenos Aires, in the Estadio Unico, where the book of the enclosure for the first half of March, enough time to perfect the show prior to the concerts. Then it would lead to Chile, Brazil, and as we passed earlier, possibly Colombia and Peru.
    This is how, for the first time, the band will premiere a new material in South American territory, something that had never happened before.

    With regard to Latin America, the cities of interest are:
    • Argentina: Buenos Aires
    • Chile: Santiago
    • Brazil: Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, belo horizonte
    • Peru: Lima
    • Colombia: Bogotá
    • Mexico: Mexico city

    The tour would maintain the format of dates pairs, with 2 concerts by city, except in Buenos Aires where there is the possibility of two pairs of shows (4).
  7. That's not the only reason. It has great energy and is a solid transitional song between themes. The snippets are an added bonus that other songs can't really provide.
  8. Rumour of a South American tour to kick off in Argentina in February.

    You know, if you just throw in new rumours every day then sooner or later something is correct. But this is like the 250th rumour of new shows

    This is the most descriptive rumor yet, hence, to me, the most feasible so far!
  10. What uppppppp
  11. Any of us could make up a similar -or even more feasible- rumour in a couple of minutes. Just throw together some stadium names and dates and make it all look as a press note of sorts... Voila.


    I'm with Remy. Rumour after rumour after rumour, something ends up being true. Nah
