not sure if this is in the correct forum...
anyway, if this itunes concert thingie turns out to be true, do you think they'll be making available absolutely everything from a given show - i mean including the snippets of other people's songs that they like to throw into their own songs. i think those bits were edited out of the boston dvd (where was 'in my life' and the snippets of 'wild horses' they had been performing in 'bad' at shows immediatly around this show?). i'd imagine that including these bits would be a publishing/copyright nightmare (requiring payouts to the authors), and i think that's why they weren't included in the officially released versions.
anyway, these little bits make a huge part of the experience for me, and i'd like to think that we'd be getting the ENTIRE show, not the record company's version of it. that's why i never listen to the boston dvd rip when i want an elevation tour fix - it's been sterilized, there's no warts or real personality to the show itself. so if the shows for sale thing happens, do you think we'll get it all, or will they chop out all the non-u2 penned material. i think i'm being a bit of a tool here, but i am what i am.
just wondering what you guys thought.
