What 90s songs are you hoping will show up on the I+E tour?

[Oregoropa]

This is going to be a poll. I made the mistake of titling the previous attempt "."

 

[Oregoropa]

For my vote of 'other' I want to hear Salome right after Mysterious Ways on the e-stage

 

[Axver]

LADY. WITH. THE. SPlNNING. HEAD.

 

[Oregoropa]

LADY. WITH. THE. SPlNNING. HEAD.

Imagine if we both got our wish Salome and Lady with Spinning Head on the e-stage after MW.

Odds

8000/1

PS (That's also the part of the show that would most please ISIS. You bellydance, we cut off your head. It will be spinning on the ground)

 

[Galeongirl]

pretty much all the pop tracks.

 

[Kieran McConville]

Always Forever Now

 

[LemonMelon]

Songs that would fit thematically:

Lemon
Mofo
Please

Songs that need to be played because duh:

Acrobat
Dirty Day

 

[digitize]

Pretty much any additional 90s song would be great.

[Kieran McConville]

Ito Okashi (acoustic)

 

[LemonMelon]

Always Forever Now

This would be amazing.

If you GOOOOOOOooooOOoOOoOOOoooooooh fuck SOI, I'm sick of supporting this boring album.

We're sorry to have forced it on you!

Time to play some real music. Creative music.

Wait...

Passengers?

Passengers.

No...NOOO

 

[Salome]

In general I feel The Fly, Until the End of the World and One are the only 90s tracks that they could always include in a show.
This tour does seem to offer one of the only opportunities to find a spot for Please though. So maybe they could rotate that one in.

 

[djerdap]

Please and Love is Blindness should be in the Troubles mini-set.

Mofo and Lemon (although I cringe at the thought of Bono singing it today) should be played with Iris.

But I wouldn't mind seeing any of those songs listed.

 

[trainmaniac]

Mofo is the new Acrobat. Surprising for me!
I just love Mofo, one their most creative tracks ever.

 

[JamietheEdgefan]

I was a little surprised at the lack of 90's (well, Pop) songs turning up for this tour - the band (or at least Bono) have mentioned as far back as the 360 tour wanting to play some Pop tunes on this tour, and given they're playing arenas, where there's a smaller audience that's more likely to have more hardcore fans and fewer casual fans than a stadium tour, surely this is the time to do it.

But now I wonder if they're holding off on playing Pop songs until the european leg?

I may be wrong, but didn't the Pop songs go down better in Europe and South America compared with the US?

Could just be that they ultimately decided not to do them at all, but i do wonder if they're holding off because they don't think north american audiences will really enjoy them.

 

[malchik_petya]

Speaking of Pop I think Discotheque has the biggest chance of getting played and could replace either EBTTRT or Mysterious Ways on some nights. Staring At The Sun may pop up once or twice on the e-stage.

Btw I wonder what they wanted to do with Numb if it really was considered.

Acrobat opening the second part of the set would be surreal. Mash together some Zoo Tv graphics on the screen and put them inside of it

LADY. WITH. THE. SPlNNING. HEAD.

I always thought it could be magical as the encore opener on 360 (maybe due to similarities with Ultraviolet, but not only)

 

[BGD75]

Please.


....and Acrobat...of course!

 

[Tinwal]

I think climbing inside the new screen could be very Zoo TV. It seems perfectly made for Zoo Station.

But I'd rather see Acrobat, lemon, Dirty Day, So Cruel, Daddy's Gonna Pay, Mofo, Do You Feel Loved, Last night on Earth.....

[Numb1075]

how about all of the above?

However, if i had to chose 1, i am a sucker for Discoteche...especially live.

I've heard Pop was huge in South-America.

No seriously, I'd like to think the chances of them playing a Pop song is higher in Europe or S-A. But it's probably just wishful thinking. On the Vertigo tour they were rehearsing songs from Pop during the North-American leg.

 

[Oregoropa]

Mofo in place of Invisible on long residencies. Thematically a perfect segway.

- Wild Horses on the E-stage would be cool.

- Of course Acrobat, the Alpha White Whale

 

[superchuk5]

Considering how prominent the Jack White cover was in The Great Gatsby, maybe Love Is Blindness will come back? Or maybe that's just wishful thinking

 

[Zoomerang96]

The 90's never happened. Nothing to see here.

 

[Tommy WM]

Hoping for Dirty Day. It's definitely their best 'LIVE' song from the 90s.

'Love...it won't last kissin' time'

 

[Gonna Run 2 U]

I saw Ultraviolet on 360. Now I need to see Wild Horses. MSG please make it so.

[jeevey]

Pop, Pop, and more Pop tracks please. Staring at the Sun full band will likely never happen, despite its lyrical unity with Cedarwood Road. Gone and Please both speak to the gritty urban 1970s setting, and Mofo the mother-death, obvs.... Has anyone else thought that given Dallas' recent comments about SoE being darker than SoI we might the band sonically revisiting Pop-era rage and despair? And really, do we even need to click the Acrobat button anymore?

 

[Salome]

I don't think they'll revisit an album that they consider a commercial and artistic failure.

 

[jeevey]

God, what is wrong with them sometimes? Anyway, I would take Salome too.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I was kinda hoping for some Hootie

 

[Hollow Island]

Except for Mofo and Lemon I don't think their 90s songs fit the theme of this tour. Maybe once Experience comes out they'll play more 90s songs.

 

[BEAL]

No, we'll probably get more ATYCLB/BOMB songs once Experience comes out.
