I know! I don't get why it's not being broadcast live on the west coast as well (since it's being filmed in LA).

Oh my, the pseudo-cowboy outfit was just terrible... the performance was great, however.

Can anyone who saw it, describe it for the impatient west coasters?
What did they wear? How did they sound? Any changes to the song? Any talking from Bono? Thanks!

I don't know if it was me, but that was just a little off. Not sure if it was the mixing or the added keyboards/whatever.
Liked the SNL version better.
Not that is was bad of course

All of the above got standing ovation
U2 did not.
I repeat, U2 did not get a standing ovation.
And we are only halfway through the show.
Bono's voice was in uncharacteristically good and controlled form - no breaks or scratchiness. Perhaps the best live performance of the song so far.
But why no standing ovation? Either the audience have really bad taste, can't tell what a good performance is, or are so bitter because they couldn't snag Vertigo Tour tickets.

What was Bono singing at the end? Sound like he wanted to insert a snippet of another song...
It was a miracle they are even playing since everybody knows they arent going to win anything tonight anyways....watching those braindead artists on the "red carpet" that was really green was quite an embarasment to the music industry...I am glad we follow a band that has some brains.

what did he sang at the end?.. a snippet from what song?
PS: YEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH.... Green Day 1, Rest 0

Bono did the "No regrets..." part like from SNL.
God, I am going to be a wreck when I hear this live... But awesome, awesome performance.

Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own = hit single of 2005.
You heard it here first.
That was bloody amazing. Better than SNL. They totally NAILED the falsetto... and just...wow. That song never ceases to amaze me. Bono's voice seemed a bit scratchy at first so I was worried, but...wow. Please tell me someone recorded that, because I need to see that again.

Great performance, but nothing but another chance to promo the album.
The crowd didn't respond to the song because nobody knows it! How stupid! They're nominated 3 times for Vertigo and don't play it
hmmm.. Vertigo would have set the place on fire, but alas, playing it won't sell them anymore records as everyone with a t.v. has already heard the song on the Ipod commercials.
It'd be an interesting situation next year if they're only nominated for "Sometimes"...they'd have to play another unknown song to put the crowd to sleep.
