Hopefully Axver or someone can shed more light on this.
I believe it's only been played live in Kansas City during the Elevation Tour.
It's just a beautiful, underrated song. Get the bootleg.
I'd love to hear it live on 360, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

I think it did make a sort of debut, but might have been only a snippet during Bad, but not sure??
If I remember right, I believe Edge has said he forgot how to play it.
Has U2 ever played a song that they didn't play on the album's original tour?
I know Axver will know.
Sorry, but we'll never see this gem live...

Also, although it wasn't at a regular concert, honorable mention to The Wanderer and their cover of Night & Day...
Wasn't The First Time snippeted during Bad on ZooTV?
Unchained Melody was a b-side to AIWIY, but they didn't start snippeting it until ZooTV.
When was 'The First Time' ever played in full?
Passengers never really had a tour so that doesn't count.
The Wanderer is a good example but special occasion.
I'm talking about actual album songs being played on later tours.

But it only replaced the then standard "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses" as a linked snippet to "Bad". This only happened in Kansas City; a full band live version never was performed ...

I hope they start playing that song during the tour. It would be amazing!
The First Time debuted live in full on 20 September 2005 in Chicago. Previously, it had only appeared a few times as a brief snippet in some August 1993 performances of Bad. It was played 28 times over the course of the third, fourth, and fifth legs of Vertigo (I got it at the second Melbourne show).
So then we still have hope that they'll play When I Look at the World in this tour... We really do have to start a movement to get people to request this song from the band...
Personally I think you can almost count it as a performance, I do. It's over two minutes if memory serves me right, and he sings two verses.
