[CONFIRMED] U2 to perform Get On Your Boots at the Brit Awards!!

[KristenCaNaDiAn]

I demand a youtube link.

Nao.

Oh yes please??

 

[paulrg]

they're still dressed as pirates

 

[Rosebud]

It has ALWAYS taken them a LONG time to get a feel for their new songs live. Probably won't happen until they start the tour.

Truth. Come on people, this is only the second friggen performance. You can't really fairly say that GOYB is not going to be good live just based on these two plays.

 

[Rachel D.]

I don't think Bono was wearing as much makeup as he had on at the Grammys.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

In all honesty i can see a few negative comments in tomorrow papers

 

[U2girl]

YouTube - The Brit Awards 2009 U2 Not the full song, but it's the first link so far. The intro is even more Zoo TV-like.

 

[U2NativeSon]

I'm curious what the guyliner is about ? I understood the COEXIST headband / blindfold during Vertigo Tour, but what is the remove the shades see my eyeliner about ?

 

[MooMoo!]

Oh I think it'll get better, I just thought this one sucked.


It better get better anyway....

 

[Rosebud]

I love you U2girl.

 

[Bonogirl777]

Why does Chris Martin always suck at singing VLV?

 

[U2opra]

Well from that clip, i can tell even with poor quality the chorus was once again messed up by the sound mix.

 

[ultraviolet625]

Coldplay was amazing

 

[Moser]

I thought the Grammy's performance was intense. I mean I did have the 720p version with a better sound mix...

Really, all performances on TV sound like shit...

 

[laurent37]

The eyeliner is Bono not being afraid of showing is feminine side. Song is about men having fucked up the world and women need to be in charge. Or maybe he just likes to put some make up on when he is going out to impress the ladies.

I second this question??

Just trying to figure out what is he trying to say here. Ususally U2 builds up a certain theme around their album and I'm not picking up on the new one yet I guess.

 

[purpleoscar]

He moves around too much.

 

[ascender_RS]

Just watched it and I think its obvious they're still working things out. The mix wasn't good this time either, but it was different to the Grammys one which was also poor. The guitar was much clearer this time both in level and clarity, so if you took the two mixes together and took the best bits of each, you'd probably get a decent mix.

makes sense I guess

 

[vaz02]

Edge should play it with a Les Paul.

 

[GretzkyU2Yanks]

he had the same thing going on at the Grammys...

 

[Peterrrrr]

Where Im the only one who thought Bono said "we'll be back" just when the song was finished?

 

[U2girl]

I thought it was "it's good to be back".

 

[catlhere]

I think he said good to be back

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Where Im the only one who thought Bono said "we'll be back" just when the song was finished?

Thought he just said "Its good to be back".

 

[daithidaithi]

he said its good to be back

 

[Marien]

eeeek! just watched the brits performance and it was only when he took his shades off during the "let me in the sound" bit you saw him with eyeshadow and mascara! not growing old gracefullly is he ? lol! bloody cool performance though! they rocked!

Bono has been wearing guyliner since the first pic shoot for this album, and about the question about his not growing old gracefully, for me he's doing it perfect.

First thought:

Second thought:

 

[Bonogirl777]

Yeah, he's always out of breath.

 

[Sicy]

Its up on u2torrents but I think there are no seeders? Or whatever they're called lol.

 

[daithidaithi]

the single release in the uk and ireland was timed in conjunction with this performance (it came out a few days ago over here).

i dont know how much this performace will help boost the chart performance. the first singles from the last three studio albums went number one, i dont know if this will, lily allen still number one?
