Live Version

[RickFly]

What is everyones favorite live version of:

Pride
Exit
Trip Through your wires
unforgettable fire

 

[jick]

Joshua Tree April 29, 1987 for all those songs.

Cheers,

J

Pride from Rattle and Hum

 

[Axver]

Exit ... tough to choose between the one on Rattle And Hum (is that 8 November 1987?) and 28 September 1987. That song is AMAZING live.

 

[Blacksword]

Pride: I'd have to say ZooTV, I just find Edge's effect on the JT one to be a tad weak, it lacks a certain grandure. Bono's voice my have been better on Jt but he still had it pretty good on ZooTV

Exit: Definitely the version on Rattle and Hum

The others I haven't heard many live versions of Trip, one I think. Unforgettable Fire i've heard in one low quality recording from the UF tour and one decent recording and one from JT. I love the way this song sounds live but I'd like to hear some more versions, though my preference is for the JT version.

what about these:

even better than the real thing
mysterious ways
until the end of the world
out of control

 

[Axver]

I need to hear more live recordings. Most of what I know is from videos. But anyhow ...

EBTTRT, MW, UTEOTW: only heard them on the Popmart video. I really like them, though, particularly UTEOTW.
OOC: I quite like 13/12/81.

what about?

another time another place
seconds
walk on

 

[Axver]

Seconds, I've only heard 5 June 1983, but I quite enjoy it. Walk On, Slane 2001. I have a video of one concert, and I'm not sure which it is. It's the one that features a few songs from Slane, runs for about ... 45-50 minutes, and appeared on Australian TV on Christmas Day last year. It's got stuff like Elevation, Beautiful Day, Pride, Out Of Control, Stuck, Streets, and Walk On on it. Can anyone enlighten me as to the date of this recording and which Slane concert it was?

 

[bono_man2002]

my favourite 2 versions of walk on are slane version and 2001-10-10 notre dame....slane would be better, but only just!

 

[RickFly]

yea im stuck, i love them both.
