Even though I'm afraid this could turn into a major snoozefest at the show, I'm still excited to hear Your Blue Room and it sounds awsome:
YouTube - U2 Your Blue Room Rehearsal Chicago September 10, 2009
no Peterrrr, his falsetto is great but not as high as 1995. He even doesn't do it at all from2:34 onward....

Edge's guitar doesn't shine as well at the end....
Well, I think the original did not have any falsetto after that point (aside from the bridge) anyway. And I understand if he wants to make the bridge more exciting by singing in a full voice (although the melody probably needs more work!).
Great version though. I would also love to hear more of the guitar solo at the end and Adam rapping as well.
You can hear some voices from the Space station throughout. I wonder if it's the astronauts singing backing vocals in the chorus?
Am I alone in suspecting that YBR could be the 'piss / beer break' song for this leg? As an actual fan, I'm thrilled that it seems likely to be performed live for the first time, and I also think that it counts as a true 'rarity'. But is it too obscure to be a successful live song? Since U2 attract so many more general music fans to their shows, there will be plenty of people there who'll only know and recognise the hits. So, when YBR starts up live, how many bemused people will be unaware of what they're hearing?

I think this song will have to have a strong visual with the astronauts in order for it work...Am I alone in suspecting that YBR could be the 'piss / beer break' song for this leg?

not to be a debbie downer or anything cuz i would ADORE/DIE to hear YBR live but I was thinking that this maybe one of those songs that they will use in rehearsals as a warm up ie to stretch out bono's vocals etc... To me its too ambient a song to do live and definitely not a well known song by most fans.
I still hope and pray that we get it tho.

They've put too much work into get the astronauts and what not to not perform it.
what show were they planning on doing this? I remember hearing about this but can't remember the details on it. Or was there much info?
I think it's pre-taped(you can hear what might be their voices on the rehearsal), so maybe all of them...
