Edge, in case youre still around and reading this......I doubt it but I hope you will come back...
First things first.... really glad the rehearsals are going well!!!!!!
Ultraviolet making a comeback!?!?!?
HELL yeah that would be great, Edge if U2 could play it on next year's tour and imo, without a doubt, one of the best songs off Achtung Baby. Also Id like to say that it would be very special for me if its played live again for a good reason!
You see, Edge, last time I heard it, back in 1993 during Zooropa tour at Wembley (what a show that was too!) and during that song, you played a video (on one of the big screens on stage) of a woman using sign language to "sing" the song. To me, that was one of the most magical moments of my life, one expressing surprise that a friend of mine was doing that very thing (her name by the way is Rachel Bastikar and she has a credit on the Zoo TV programme) and for a major band like U2 to show it as part of the gig! Amazing! Im also very very proud to be deaf (in case you ask, I can hear the music from my right ear with the aid of an hearing aid) and I use sign language extensively too. So from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!
So, Edge, it would be brilliant to hear it live again...as not only it is one of my favourite songs but also I would proudly "sing" the song in sign language!
Anyway whatever happens, Im still very much looking forward to hear you raise the roof again in 2005!
cheers
