YES!!!! They have been rehearsing MOFO. What a fucking great live song. This is one I was praying for.
MrBrau1 said:They haven't actually been playing. What people have been hearing is the producer working on the backing track. The live version of the tune is 90% backing track.

Very true. It really does seem like that on the Mexico PopMart Video.

There's a tape playing a bass part.
There's a tape playing at least 2 guitar parts.
There's a drum tape.
The backing vocals "been round the back, been round the front" are tape.
And someone under the boards plays keys. Unless that's tape as well.
It's the Robocop of U2 songs live.
U2@NYC said:Ok, so another Mofo thread starts... I think that we have reached desperation point in asking for setlist variety...
U2@NYC said:So, what are the guys doing during Mofo?
Maybe they can just start the song and leave for a bathroom break...

They play. There are live drums, guitar and bass. But alot of what you're hearing isn't coming from live instruments.

I always wonder how big the difference between hearing just the backing tape of Mofo and hearing the whole live thing would be

Well, in the backing tape there are no girls yelling and claiming for Bono to do his pelvic moves...
