Any insight into why these two haven't gotten a permanent slot in the set? Is the band not happy with the few rare performances of them?

Both are powerhouse tracks, with perhaps Edge's best guitar work since Achtung Baby. It seems these two could reach epic proportions live (especially OOTS the way it builds to that tremedous crescendo at the end).

I've heard 2 versions of OOTS (thought the plugged in version was better)... Have not heard Crumbs though... (How is it live?)

Are they just not rehearsed enough? It seems obvious, for whatever the reason, they are not comfortable with either...
