What is the single best live song performance by U2?
What is the single worst live song performance by U2?
I say the best one is between "The Fly" in Boston, "Bullet the Blue Sky" on Zoo TV, or "Discotheque" in Mexico. The version of The Fly in Boston was the first track from Acthung Baby I had ever heard, and it totally blew me away. Bullet on Zoo TV was just sickening compared to the previous versions of the song. The Edge's solo was just wicked. Discotheque in Mexico was a totally different version of the song, and was one of the most rockin' songs U2 ever played.
I would have to go with The Fly in Boston as my choice, because it just blew me away when I saw it on TV, on a broadcast of the concert, and it got me hooked to U2.
Single worst live song performance has to be "Desire" from the Zoo TV bootleg from Washington. I guess they performed the song the same way throghout the tour, but this one was especially bad. I love the song, especially the Lovetown and Boston versions, but this one sucked the big one. That guitar was just annoying, with the effects from Numb but raised in volume. Edge also messed up on the "solo" part, and he played the wrong chords at one part and ahh, it was just bad. They totally messed up a classic U2 song.
What do you guys think are the best and worst?
