I have no idea. I tried to make sense of them all but they went by so fast I felt like I was going to have a seizure like those kids that watched Pokemon in japan. All I remember is "LOVE, the secret is letting go" :huh:

Sorry -- couldn't avoid it
 
IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT CAR YOU DRIVE

was one that came up at the end during Cardiff - my friend and I talked about that line for a while!

I am pretty sure there were other differences between Twickenham and Cardiff.

I didn't write all of that down. My friend (I think she might have an account here) filmed the screens during The Fly and watched it frame-by-frame to get all the words down :up:

I think they put up PUSSY or CUNT one time, cos I remember Willie Williams laughing about that (in his diary) particular frame being photographed and put in a magazine. :giggle:
 
WOW, I don't remember seeing the word "orgasm" - - at all!

And it was flashed a bunch of times.

I would have loved to take a picture of Bono right below that word, ha ha! :drool:

(oops, please don't move me to PLEBA for saying that! ha!)

They changed the effects between legs 1 & 2.
For instance, leg 1 had "autobahn" and "everything you know is wrong" and so forth. The 2nd leg version was different with phrases missing letters and stuff.
 
Not as far as I was concerned. I've seen a montage of 40 images from the fly from leg 1, no missing letters there, but then again I can't say for sure, I didn't attend a leg 1 concert.

it kept changing as the tour went on

early in the first leg there were no missing letters or fill in the blanks
