Party's standing drum kit means we will probably get one of EBTTRT, Invisible, or Desire

Dallas' statement, IMHO, confirms the new song will be played. If they really had gotten cold feet, he would have said something like "What new song?" But NO ONE tells a fan hours before a show, that the the band (his employer) failed at rehearsing. Edge would fire him on the spot for that remark. I have a little job in entertainment, but I have worked in Hollywood for a long time. I guarantee you, NO ONE would say that if it were true, lest of all a season pro like Dallas.
Second point. If Bono really is floating tapes to all these DJ's for remixes, then the album is essentially finished. They might reach out to one DJ with one track from an unfinished record, but not multiples, that sounds hard to swallow. Simply put, the remixes are a marketing ploy for the tracks on the album. That only works well if the remixes are derived from the album cut itself. Note that these guys aren't producers on the record. Like if they wanted to bring in Skrillex to be their "closer" in the production process and be the final hand that finishes the record, that would be one thing, then we would be hearing about him as a producer. But we aren't hearing about DJ's coming on a producers, we are hearing about them doing "stuff." That means remixes to me, and remixes mean that the broad contours of the songs are finaled, and we are probably in the finalling/mastering phase.
Having said all of that, nothing would stop them from shelving this version of the record and going back for more work. But I have a distinct feeling that we will see SOE sooner (Between now and March 2017) and that all the naysaying we hear now is a misdirection.
My money is on The Best Thing tonight, and a tease from Bono "We got a new record full of tunes like this and it's coming soon. I hope you like it."
Again, IMHO, YMMV.

Hey all, don't know if this has already been posted or not and I really don't have the time to scroll through this entire thread (have a sick 1 year old here), but when I was driving to the doctor's office I was listening to the Iheartthe80's radiochannel and there were 2 radio dj's inside the arena and they were talking about that u2 had just finished their rehearsal and something along the line that they really wanted to tell what they had just heard/seen, but that they couldn't.
Thanks for sharing that! Is it 1:40 AM yet?Hey all, don't know if this has already been posted or not and I really don't have the time to scroll through this entire thread (have a sick 1 year old here), but when I was driving to the doctor's office I was listening to the Iheartthe80's radio channel and there were 2 radio dj's inside the arena and they were talking about that u2 had just finished their rehearsal, u2 having been given the innovator award by iheart and something along the line that they really wanted to tell what they had just heard/seen, but that they couldn't.
