So Cruel was actually played a few times, I think twice. Acrobat was only soundchecked, acoustic.

:ohmy: Really? Which shows?

As for Acrobat, I do have the acoustic version...or that's probably the soundcheck version.
 
According to the growing compilation of live data @ u2-vertigo-tour.com/song149.html

· 1992-05-22 - Milan, Italy - Forum Di Assago
· 1992-08-22 - Foxboro, Massachusetts - Foxboro Stadium

· 1992-09-15 - Chicago, Illinois - World Music Ampitheater

Hmm.. besides that song itself in order:

Electrical Storm
Summer Rain
Heartland
When I Look At The World
Stay (another version)
 
Red Hill Mining Town. Great tune, one of Bono's best vocals. A sure hit that never was. It's incomprehensible that U2 has never played this one live.
 
Zooropa (A full version; long opening)
Red Hill Mining Town
Lemon
If God Will Send His Angels (a long version with a full band would be nice)
Do You Feel Loved
 
Acrobat

Party Girl (always a crowd favorite)

When Love Comes To Town (w/ B.B. King)

All Along The Watchtower

Silver & Gold

Desire (full band version, like they used to do in the 80's)

God Part 2

Heartland
Night And Day (Seriously!!!!)

I absolutely agree (after "Acrobat" itself, of course ;) ) I heard one version of N&D live so far, it es really breathtaking!

Some more "Acrobat"-tunes:
Like a Song
Drowning man
Two Hearts...
Red Hill Mining Town
Exit
One Tree Hill
Lemon
Wire
The Unforgettable Fire
Do you feel loved
Electrical Storm
Ultraviolet
Love is Blindness (I could listen to it a thousand times and still not grow tired of it!)

They played it in Paris for the JT Tour. But true, it qualifies as an Acrobat because it was rare.
