I really don't know why, sorry)http://www.u2interference.com/forum...performence-today-breathe-live-194083-38.html
(it's posted on this page)
It will most likely be pulled down because of copyright violation anyways.

Guys, I complained about the comment on the BBC blog, the one that said that U2 were insignificant midgits or whatever.
I checked "Incites people to commit a crime" as the reason
Would this make anyone in this thread want to send me a link to everything that happened on BBC? I missed it all
lol

Guys, the BBC has ruled that the comment posted by that moron does not, in fact, incite people to commit a crime. They investigated it and everything.

Great show, much better than I was expecting, but it's a pity Kermode hates U2 so much as I'd quite like to see him spar with Bono, that would be entertaining.
Anyway, like everyone else has been saying that version of NLOTH was excellent, full of drive and energy, Bono certainly sounds the best he has since R&H, his confidence is clear, no longer shying away from the more difficult moments but tackling them head on. Although I don't think he has the warm clarity or raw power of the past, the highness and flexibility he now possesses is undeniable. I'm impressed, if he can keep this level of consistency for the tour then we're in for something very special indeed.

It was a good show, could've done without the random music journalists slagging 'em off in between though! The live versions sounded great, Bono's voice sounds amazing!

Great how Edge kicks at "I'm a traffic cop"
Simply mind bendingly great. I would have given anything to spend the day in the studio when they were filming this...

for those overseas friends that want to SEE this incredible performance and can't because of the "unique way the BBC is funded"... It's here:

Thanks
Is there also a youtube video of the interview and performances, because I don't want to download such huge files (my computer is already striking because I've been downloading so much recently).

In one of these interviews, love the moment when Adam pulls "Drowning Man" out of his ass to answer what is the song that defines U2 and all the other guys are for two seconds like: "WTF? Never heard of it.".

Thank god for this. I was briefly enraged when I heard the interview over the song.

That's in the French Canal+ interview... Not this one...
But yes, it is very funny. It's like they haven't mentioned that song in 25 years and then Adam remarks that it "sums him up"..
It was the NRJ interview, not the Canal+ one. And yeah, that moment cracked me up too.

I was glad those bits were there to be honest, because it stopped it being pure "advertising". Plus, I couldn't disagree with what they said about the last two albums being less... dynamic, shall we say.
