But didn't U2 rehearse EBTTRT closer to the Perfecto mix, rather than closer to the ZooTv/Popmart version? I think it would be perfect to replace that attrocious Crazy Tonight remix.
I will say this: Kingdom is a fantastic intro song...
...it's Breathe that's a bad opener.

Coupled with a good intro video, I could imagine this being pretty awesome. Besides, it's about time SUC got played live...they've been selling T-shirts for it at shows for ages now, and it's one of those songs you just know would be better live than recorded.Imagine having the part where Bono is saying "Stand up...this is comedy" looped in this remix sounding over the PA system, but exchanging it for "Stand Up...to rockstars" repeated over and over. Then the band walks onstage much like they did for Breathe. Edge sets off the siren (also used for Vertigo), Larry plays his marching beat, Adam does the funky bass thing of the middle-eight and Bono comes onstage, working the crowd ("Stand up! Stand up!") before starting the song.

Besides the usual hardcore fan wishes for them to open with a jaw dropping esoteric tune like Two Hearts or Acrobat - which would make my life, I was thinking about what may be possible for a "reality wish list."
Obviously IMO a Boots intro and full song would work and to me do better than Breathe but.....
What about Larry coming out and starting the drum solo part (we are thinking "shit! Breathe again?") and then changing the cadence to the drums from Desire. A full band rock your balls off version of Desire would be BA. The crowd would go ape shit. Then go ahead with the NLOTH stuff and whatever. Any other thoughts that would be cool? Obviously not a prediction thread!
One I know they will not open with but would be interesting would be Lady With A Spinning Head(Extended Dance Mix).
When I first heard "Boots" I was convinced the best way to open up would be "Devil Inside" by INXS played as the last song over the PA
