Which tour was full of acoustic SBS's? Was it Pop or Elevation?Acoustic Sunday Bloody Sunday? Very interesting.
I do find it interesting that a couple of days ago, the band rehearsed an intro with Magnificent, while today they rehearsed it with Breathe. I wonder if they were the same intro or different. Could be a sign the band are yet to settle on an opener, or that they intend to use two openers in rotation, or if they are different intros, one could open the main set and one the encore.
I've always thought Breathe would be the best opener. Larry could extend the rumbling drum intro as the band takes the stage. Just have it get louder and louder and louder untill the stadium is shaking and then BOOM! the guitars kick in and lights explode. EPIC opener in my mind at least.
truthfully i dont blame them.
saying africa shit and so forth is not appropriate to say but we are buying tickets to see a rock concert, not a lecture. i support the one campaign and everything and even wearing a ONE bracelet now, but come on bono stop the speeches and sing.

Acoustic SBS... I can't decide if that's good (shorter SBS?) or bad (half-assed SBS?).
I have thought the same thing as well. I can't think of a better opener from the new album than "Breathe."
So the day after massive breaches in rehearsal security hit the net, U2 lowers the boom and clamps down security tight, allows no view of the stage today and turns down so low that anything approaching a beach clip isn't even possible...yet somehow, just somehow, security is able to smuggle several setlists out for fans. Two possibilities here: U2 is deliberately fucking with us and feeding us fake setlists to keep us dangling, or a security guard is getting the boot tomorrow, cause U2 has clearly been reading this or eastlinks thread

The only problem is it isn't a single. This makes it unlikely for either position in the set.. but you never know.
Not being a single makes something unlikely to open either the main set or encore? Not true at all. Just to take Vertigo as an example, LAPOE opened nine shows; COBL opened shows before it became a single; non-singles such as Zoo Station, UTEOTW, and The First Time opened encores. On Elevation, the non-single Bullet was the encore opener. On Popmart, Mofo was the opener for a long time before it became a single; Zoo Station opened ZooTV; Lovetown had non-single openers such as Bullet, Hawkmoon 269, and God Part II, etc.
It's much more common than I first thought.. in fact I immediately thought of LAPOE as soon as I posted, so had a minor edit.
Is Streets another one that wasn't a single yet before the tour?
^What are the chances of them playing any covers songs?
I reckon Fez-Being Born is the most ideal opener,

Unlike many people here, I wouldn't want to miss accoustic U2 and think they should have an accoustic mini-set again this tour.
