When Bongo mentioned Mike Love was in the house I thought sure they were gonna play California but we got Crystal Ballroom instead, which I'm quite fine with.
Bono at Boston 4: "I'd like to dedicate this next song to somebody special who's in the house tonight, Lykke Li!"

Well dam. Here I was hoping it was a sign of things to come.

Mike Love was at last night's show, that's why Bono was talking about the Beach Boys and we thought California was coming.

you never know, Zooropa started out as little snippets of the "what do you want" and piano riff and ended up with the band playing the whole song. I think Ultraviolet is one they'd totally revisit despite just playing it last tour, but I know not everyone here would be on board with that.
I'm hoping the same happens with the Wanderer at some point and we get at least one version on the e-stage sometime. without Edge's ridiculous backing vocals.

Off-topic, but was it Ultraviolet that had the 10+ page thread on what Edge was saying for backing vocals or not?

Zooropa was apparently driven by the crew. I think they even presented the full production version for them do play/sing over karaoke style.

that's pretty hilarious actually. Dallas and Willie always seem to have great ideas. pretty sure Willie got them to do the First Time and tried (unsuccessfully) to get White as Snow to debut. not to mention his tour sketches with Playboy Mansion, Velvet Dress, etc referenced.
Dallas tends to check songs that never get played (An Cat Dubh for example)
Who wouldn't love Ultraviolet? I would go bonkers, personally.

Why repeat "rarities" from recent tours instead of playing ANYTHING from the long list of songs fans have desperately waited decades to hear? There's 10 singles, a couple were even lead off singles and some that have never played in North America.

Well, if THAT's the scenario, it's a differrnt story for me. But I eould t be mad at Ultraviolet.
I was positive they were going to play A Sort of Homecoming in Boston. One more chance!

I didn't even notice the Ultraviolet snippet and that's one of my favorite songs. Honestly it was a little hard to tell what Bono was singing when they weren't the usual words. What was he signing during Streets? Don't even know.
By the way, who else there was at the show? Heard a bunch of people signing "40" afterwards, and imagined some of them might come from here.
