Hello and all that I was just watching a recording of SBS and UF from Barcelona 360 tour on u2ube.
And...not for the first time...i found it quite an uninspired performance. And i got to thinking, i remember witnessing u2 play these song like their lives depended on it. So my question is (to those who can go back to the 80s with u2) do you think the passion has gone from the performance from u2 now?
If I was asked to pick best versions of songs like SBS, Bad, WOWY, or anything up to AB...i would say the performances declined DRASTICALLY after Zoo TV. They dont seem to have that fire in their belly any longer.
