5th time seeing the band last night and it was probably the best I've heard them sound. New material sounded strong, Electric Co. and Bullet are huge and UTEOTW is probably the greatest live song I've ever heard. Crowd was excellent aswell (including one very enthusiastic steward) and you could...

Can we say a collective prayer in the hope of Bad getting an outing?

I've got tickets for the two Glasgow dates and I get the impression that the setlists won't differ much from what was played in Antwerp, if at all. No doubt the gigs will be enjoyable but it's a little hard not to feel slightly cheated. I wouldn't have bought tickets for both nights if all the...

Well with such an array of songs to choose from chances are it won't be to anyones absolute exact liking but at least the genuine tour highlights (minus one or two) are looking a safe bet to make it. Perhaps it is a bit of wishful thinking to expect the songs that only popped up once or twice...

Well considering at no point did I say you weren't allowed to vote for any of the classics I think I'll restrain the 'angry mob' for the time being, I simply put forward the way I voted. And just because U2.com says 'vote for your favourites' doesn't mean you actually have to do it. The...

It's not really got anything to do with being the 'biggest U2 fan' (there is no such thing), at least for me anyway but a lack of understanding as to why people would vote for the release of a recording which is likely already available and will probably have further versions released in the...

When I first saw that this was for paid subscribers only I thought it'd be a good thing because surely if like myself these folk are mental enough to fork out the subscription fee then chances are they'll all already own the various live DVDs etc where they can enjoy the countless live versions...

Anybody going to see them on tour? Got tickets for Glasgow in November. Had a peek at their current set as well - massive lack of Humbug songs (it could become their Pop in my opinion) and That's Where You're Wrong, for me easily one of their best songs only a rare inclusion. Still cannot wait...

The Discotheque snippet is so frustrating ... JUST PLAY THE SONG.

Yeah theyre definitely not the same, they are open notes in the arpeggios, drone notes in the solo, the harmonics and then the open note at the start and end of the outro.

I always thought that was a B minor?

Even Better Than The Real Thing Zooropa Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me Ultra Violet I'm going to be realistic here and say thats what we'll get. HMTMKMKM is the closest we'll get to a Pop song.

Bit difficult to hear on the video posted but he plays the slide solo at the very start of EBTTRT whilst the Whammy intro is looped over it.

RIP One Tree Hill. That was horrendous.
