Every time Bono gets shit for picking young, hot Ali lookalikes, he picks Amp to even the stats

Agreed. Didn't have quite the same energy as the other three (Electric Co, Gloria, OOC), but would be great on the E stage.

Is that Bono flip off real because it's awesome.
Are you kidding me? His solo during Kite on Vertigo is one of his best.

I mean these days he usually goes with his solo for a Walk On like pattern and he throws some prime-fourth arpegiated intervals now and then. He used it also on Kite at Vertigo tour, now with Troubles and many other songs when he is lazy to spend more time on it. It sounds very generic and predictable. It´s nowhere close to his magic solos during early years, Lovetown or Zoo era.
I actually agree with this. He has used that same sequence quite a bit.
Love that little siren sound he does during btbs edge is being far from lazy there
Yep. It is a bit too similar to his Kite solo on the Vertigo tour.
Musically it's a rehash of the JT/Lovetown versions. I vastly prefer the ZooTV/Popmart/Elevation guitar solos and he always made a new twist on it with each new tour. This is a very energetic version, no doubt about it, but it leaves me wanting more in the Edge department.
These days*Those days, days, dayyyyys run awaaay liiiike horses over the hill...yeah!

Those versions of Kite are up there with U2's all-time greatest moments

Basically the Vertigo Tour version of "Kite" and the live version of "Dirty Day" are probably in my top 10 favorite U2 moments. Yet both were done no more than 10 times, Kite even less I think. This band... I don't know what to say. They're still the best, but the decisions they make sometimes are beyond frustrating.
THBAO should not have been shelved for THIRTY YEARS (save for one performance in 1989).
SECONDS and SURRENDER
A Sort of Homecoming
Great songs that were pretty integral to the early stages of this band. I don't see why it's okay to nostalgically revisit BOY all the time, but not War or UF.
Also, I find it refreshing that they went back to the 80s version of "Bullet", musically speaking.
