There were actually five Pop songs played on Elevation - Discotheque, SATS, Gone, Please, and Wake Up Dead Man. (Though none of them appeared on all three legs.)

However, since the end of Elevation, there have been just three performances of Pop songs: two of Discotheque on the Vertigo Tour in September 2005 and one of SATS at a Clinton event in late 2011.

Wow. See I knew they played a bit of Pop on Elevation but didn't even realize they've all but ignored that album since. I can't believe with that massive 360 stage they didn't play anything off Pop. Huge missed opportunity. They must really dislike that album which is odd because it's a great album.

They rehearsed more Pop material for Vertigo and even planned a "Popcore" encore. Discotheque was the only song they played in concert in the end, but they also ran through Mofo and Velvet Dress. And it's not quite Pop, but they were also working on Daddy's Gonna Pay.

We'll probably have to wait until 2017 for them to pay any attention to Pop, as it will be the 20th anniversary :eek:

Maybe the DELUXE POP will be ready by the end of the 2016 shows and we will get some POP tunes then?

That will be their excuse for NOT putting out SOE, by way of putting out POP Deluxe. LOL.

Happened with AB set coming out instead of Song of Ascent.
