Could Love and Peace replace Bullet live?

[Acrobatic]

Bullet is a staple and there probably is plenty of room for the two but I get the feeling that this is a new era and this may be a fitting exchange on the set list. Also, Edge could play a bad ass solo live on this one.

I think this would be a great tour opener.... kind of like zoo station

It sounds to me very similar to UTEOTW, but I wouldn't want them replacing UTEOTW. But they would go good back to back.

I dont think they would replace bullet either, but I definately prefer LOPOE to Bullet!

I think this would be a great tour opener.... kind of like zoo station

I was thinking the exact same think for it as well!!!

 

[Axver]

I have a feeling it will follow Exit.

Anyone else think that some Joshua Tree songs no longer played live could come back and sound great with these songs? Like Exit and One Tree Hill?

 

[starsgoblue]

I LOVE LPOE but I also love Bullet live....I wouldn't want it to be replaced...I want both!!

 

[Acrobatic]

I have a feeling it will follow Exit.

That would be sweet!

I think they're going to change it up a bit this time around.

 

[discothequeLP]

after listening to the intro, i think that this actually could be a great show opener, all dark and bad ass!

This may sound silly, but I think if this song is ever a single, that it would be cool to see a video set back in the prohibition era in America. U2 as gangsters. Fedora's zoot suits, whatever.

Just gives me a Chicago-bluesy feel. Love the song.

As for replacing Bullet? Nah. Bullet might not be played anyhow, but Bullet is sort of an angry song, I don't think this song is angry, I think it's sort of a plea for sanity. A little cry for joy out of despair.

I don't know, whatever.

OMG...Bono in a Fedora....


I love it! I think that's a sweet idea....would they ever go for something like that I wonder....

 

[U2DMfan]

would they ever go for something like that I wonder....

Probably not, I would guess.

I like the irony of the song title

anti-violence being potrayed in a video as the band with some teeth and tommy guns.

You see, the emphasis is on the "Or Else" part.

It should replace Bullet. That song is already old and tired while LAPOE is fresh and stronger than Bullet.

Cheers,

Jick, honestly you don't really like U2 do you?

 

[chocky]

LPOE could easily become the new encore-opener in much the same way as BTBS & Discoteque. I really hope BTBS stays.

But LPOE could also be transformed into a b-stage semi-acoustic song - like Desire on recent tours.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

no chance... bullet will be played.

 

[UnforgettableLemon]

Bullet and LAPOE together would be pretty intense. I imagine the live version of LAPOE is gonna have some fucking sick guitarwork

 

[djerdap]

Live renditions of Bullet are one of my favorite songs ever... Saying that, I think that LAPOE would be a fantastic replacement. Just imagine this trilogy: Exit-Love and Peace or Else-The Fly

 

[jackboy]

the answer is a definite yes...'bullet' is a ripping song live...especially nowadays with the work edge has done to improve it...but i'm bored with it now...give me 'love peace and else' live and i'll shite me pants

 

[Shono]

No way LAPOE is an opener. COBL will be the opener followed by Vertigo. I see LAPOE arriving mid set flowing into Bad. U2 shows are great for their seamless ebb and flow in intensity. COBL has the chiming guitar style of Streets that will be reminiscent of the JT Tour opening. IMHO.

No Bullet on this tour.
