The Fly
If they drop TUF, they'll have to put in another song that will use the cool screen-expansion to great effect.
I´d love Please in that slot!

Look for songs where Bono either plays or generally holds a guitar. They'll want to limit his movement for the first couple of weeks, and holding a guitar typically does that. I think you'll see a couple of those type of tracks being worked in.
You might even get him playing piano on a track or two.
well, it will be summer...good thinking, so we might get sweatest thing?

...acoustic Stuck. Yes, its fun to hear live, even to watch on youtube, but still, when I first saw it pop up on a 360 set list I was thinking "really, guys?" U2 has many better songs to put in its place. Also, you could not be more right about acoustic Stuck being pointless. In Europe, the Desire/Angel of Harlem/Stay/Electrical Storm rotating slot was one of the most vital in the set list.

well lets see, judging by past tours:
exit
in god's country
hawkmoon 269
the fly
dirty day
gone
last night on earth
Exit, I'd love to see, but I don't know how many others feel that way.
.
Zoo Station (ZooTv tour version)!!!!!!I'm with edge-evans on the acoustic set. The whole point of that would be to rest the drummer. Plus I didn't mind some of the acoustic performances, the show I saw had a beautiful version of SIAMYCGOO.
Anyway songs I think they should throw in to the set would be:
The Fly
Mofo
Zoo Station (Vertigo Tour version)
Bad
Stand Up Comedy (at least try it once!!!)
I Will Follow
All I Want Is You
Even Better Than The Real Thing
All in exchange for other songs of course. They should definitely take out Elevation and do the extended solo for Mysterious Ways as they did on Vertigo.
If they are going to play any more of ATYCLB they should debut WILATW. If that tribute band can kick ass playing it why can't U2 give it a shot?
U2 need to take lessons from that Lemon Tribute band. Listen to U2's attempt at IGWSHA vs. Lemon's version, for example. Some of the songs they've done that U2 have never tried are amazing. Heartland, Love comes tumbling, WILATW, Acrobat, Fez-Being Born, Promenade... great versions.
Since I'm sure the setlist will be very different by the time my 2011 shows come around, I really find myself indifferent about what songs they play for this leg. I'm just happy they're going to be playing again very soon!
