I'm sort of confused why people still care about Fez-Being Born. Leave it as it is.......a great album track. Just like Acrobat and Red Hill Mining Town. We have a new album coming soon so hopefully people move on.

I think it would be a major snooze fest. No hook, no chorus, no point. Terrible song to play live noone will get it.
Much better to play Zooropa. It's off a Grammy-winning album and it's got all the elements Fez does not.

They didn't exactly move on from Acrobat or Red Hill Mining Town.

Pretty much this. Fez/BB, White as Snow, Cedars... are my favorite tracks on NLOTH, but I'm not going to delude myself into thinking they would be successful live - much less as openers.
I think the fact that they had that Fez intro into COBL at Cape Town gives us a hint that they may be open to trying out the song live. Maybe at one of the south american/mexico city shows they will open with it?
I think the way pepokiss described it would be awesom, although I don't really care if they play Soon before it. I think just starting out with the house lights going down, some awesome new visuals on the screen as Fez begins, and then the band goes on stage and when Being Born begins - with that big guitar, bass, and drum EXPLOSION part at the beginning - the lights flash on and Bono can be on the elliptical walkway dancing and singing and screwing around like he did with Stingray Guitar.
I really liked the idea of continuing the "let me in the sound" loop so that they can segue into GOYB. That would be really cool.

Sorry dude, wrong section. More appropriately posted as part of the "Are U2 drug free" discussion.

has a
YouTube - FEZ BEING BORN Live U2 performance By Lemon (u2 tribute from Chile)
I'm sold, but I'm a push-over for Fez/BB.
Hell, if U2 isn't going to play some of their best songs live, I've got to get my ass down to Chile to catch Lemon.
(YouTube has them playing When I Look At The World, too.
)

)I agree. I can't believe how good of a job Lemon does.
I watched this video. Made me really wish U2 would play this underrated gem:

Wow, they did a phenomenal job of it... I just can't see it in a stadium, but when U2 plays a small club for me, I'm all for it
