I havn't seen a show or heard any bootlegs yet. So I was wondering if any of the attendees or bootlegees could answer me a quick question. It seems to me that Yahweh and 40 are an odd way to end the show because of their similarity to each other. One or the other would seem to do the job, but as I said I havn't heard a show. So basically, do these songs work back to back or are they a little bit of overkill due to their similarity in vibe?
 
They work. Yahweh is done with Edge on acoustic guitar and singing harmony. 40 is done old style with Edge and Adam switching instruments.

Didn't notice any disappointments at the two shows I attended.
 
They made the song work with the acoustic + slower version. Sounds Great!

"too bad they are not doing it every night"

I'm going to the first Chicago show on May 7th...I hope they play it then. But I'm confident since they've played it at the first nights of every city so far.
 
It works well together...........same for "Original/40" which we'll probably see more often as well........both are nice reflective numbers that lead into a beautiful closer.
