Rock n' Roll Doggie FOB
Alright guys. Back in 2001 the guys finally brought The Fly out of retirement after the ZooTV tour almost a decade earlier. On Elevation they really did a damn fine job re-vamping the song, and Edge's gutiar was really really hot, it was literally on fire! They're still doing it this time around, thank God, but this time around it sounds much more like the ZooTV versions, but with a new beat from Larry, a new bassline by Adam, a great new intro from Edge, and amazing Bono vocals for the chorus. But which version is better?
To be honest, I can't really say; it's pretty much a tie. The Fly from the Boston DVD really got me 100% hooked onto U2 (it was the first song off Actung Baby I had seen/heard, and I was blown away!). But the new beat and vocals on this tour are so damn good, and they brought back the subliminal messages! I can't decide; maybe a mix of the Elevation slow intro/guitar and the Vertigo new drum beat/vocals?. . .
