It's on U2's second most popular album, an album that's sold more than 15 million copies (I can't remember the exact figures).

People know it.

Your point may be valid if we were talking about, I don't know, October. But it seems some people here take more exception with a statement about Acrobat than about October.

True, but how many casual listeners actually listen to a whole album? I imagine most would listen to:

Zoo Station
Even Better Than The Real Thing
One
Mysterious Ways


Sad, but true...

(And no, I'm not referring to the song by that crap metal band...:wink: )
 
I wouldnt be concerned with the fan reaction to Acrobat as much as the band's interest in playing it.
If they played it, they would only be playing it because of years of annoying fans telling them they need to play it. The song is 15 years old, and wasn't even played on ZooTV.
However, if the band were to sort of "rediscover" the song in rehearsals and actually wanted to play it, then I'm sure it would sound amazing, and I really think hearing "don't let the bastards grind you down" would be the ideal way to end a show with a bang.
 
at this point, Bono would probably be referring to us as the "bastards" for begging them to play the song for so long.
 
If U2 played it and it sounded great the fans would applaud and go crazy. At the Houston show, no one knew Fast Cars or Electric Co. but the crowd was into these songs. As for "A Cat Dubh" at Chicago 1 :|

The hardcore fans would probably all go very quiet after collectively passing out when we recognised it. The rest wouldn't know it, it seemed like very few people responded to either Zoo Station or The Fly at most of the shows I went to. If the casual fan doesn't know those ones then Acrobat would be totally lost.
 
1 City of Blinding Lights
2 Vertigo
3 Elevation
4 The Fly
5 Van Diemans Land
6 A Sort of Homecoming
7 Beautiful Day
8 Miracle Drug
9 Sometimes You Can't Make It on Your Own
10 Love and Peace or Else
11 I Threw a Brick Through a Window
12 Bullet the Blue Sky
13 With or Without You
14 Pride (In the Name of Love)
15 Where the Streets Have No Name
16 One

17 Dirty Day
18 Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me
19 Last Night on Earth
20 All Because of You

21 One Tree Hill
22 Red Hill Mining Town
23 All I Want is You

I think this setlist is 100% possible and Larry Mullen will announce the new dates for the tour resumption within the hour.
 
If they start playing so it fades into night then I'd predict this...
