it's a good track but they just can't play it live.
what more do people really expect them to do?? stand up and play a bunch of obscure album tracks from the lesser albums like Pop and October?? Great for the beer sales but not much for stadium show atmosphere
My fantasy set...drop Vertigo, Elevation, In a Little While, City Of Blinding Lights, Pride, Boots...replace them with Bad, The Unforgettable Fire, Exit, Running To Stand Still, Please and Gone!!!
P.S. And include Every Breaking Wave in EVERY show!!!
while they may not owe us anything in particular regarding missing the Elevation tour here, I wouldn't oppose them if they felt they owed us some Bad/40/Streets renditions elevation style haha
The Fly - Elevation style followed by The Fly - Vertigo style?
Encore 1
19 - PopMusik/Mofo
20 - Crazy Tonight (remix)
21 - Vertigo
Encore 2
22 - Hold Me Thrill me Kiss Me Kill Me
23 - Ultraviolet (Light my Way)
24 - With Or Without You
25 - Moment Of Surrender
I was thinking about Exit the other day as well. It could happen.
which is hilarious given they still play shit like stuck in a moment.
although i believe i read bono personally didn't like performing exit because of where it took him while it was being performed, rather than any impact on the live show.
Thats silly.
I would be okay with this.00 - FEZ

I would be okay with this.
I wouldn't mind hearing 'trying to throw your arms around the world' in the warm Melbourne / Australian evening!!!
that setlist is actually one of the best, more realistic, fan creations i've seen. Only adjustment I would consider is opening with Fez-Being Born. Sounds cool, but not sure it would get a stadium hoppin'. What the hell, try it once!
When I get there, I know im not going to care if they play IALW 24 times and leave, but:
Please drop IALW, SHF, Pride, Walk On.
Open with Mercy, fuck up the casuals!
