While I bet tracks 10 - 12 on the 2nd cd are snippets of the respective songs Bono sung during "Bad," I find it interesting that The Rolling Stones "Sympathy for The Devil" which was also snippeted, isn't included. Hopefully, we aren't getting some edited, screwy live version of "Bad" from Live Aid. On the other hand, if these are indeed separate songs, wasn't SoL recorded in 1991 or early '92 for the "One" single?
I agree with others about the missing b-sides, even the two "Wide Awake" so-called live tracks, but to me, the key missing song is the Self Aid performance of "Maggies Farm" originally released on the "Live For Ireland" cd. That song which was basically a prototype of "Bullet The Blue Sky" is a important bridge musically between TUF and TJT albums.
Regarding the '84 Dortmund show on the 1st dvd, it's a shame "Wire" wasn't played that show. Hopefully, at least the entire set will be included.
