'Adding more?'

25 Mar 2010659
Speaking to Dave Fanning of Irelands's 2FM a few weeks back, Edge said the band had begun thinking about this year's shows. Dave mentioned that in 2009 there was always five or six songs from No Line on the Horizon: 'Would you keep that many?

'We were talking about adding more,' said Edge, in a decidedly enigmatic tone. 'Changing out some of the songs...'

And that was it, the subject was closed, he was giving nothing else away. But we can dream can't we ? So here's the thing: if you could add in a song from 'No Line' which wasn't a regular in the set last year ... what would it be?

And while you're musing on that one, what song from any earlier album, which didn't feature in 2009, would you love to hear in the mix this time around ?

Answers in the box below please. One different track from No Line, one other track from any earlier album. (And why, if you have the time...)

(If your memory needs refreshing on the songs the band were performing last year, check the 2009 dates and click on any city to see the set list.)

Here's Your Answer
Stand Up Comedy was the missing piece from No Line (at least in Dublin). I realize it's a fairly straight forward, fuck-it, rock song. Whatever. It's got attitude. From the past, it's time to bring back a few more songs from October. How about another shot for Gloria or Rejoice?

Stand Up Comedy + Acrobat
def Stand Up Comedy, and I was surprised to not see Pride in the regular set list. Anyway, never heard of them ever playing Acrobat live-they ought to add that like they did your blue room and electrical storm

additional song wishes...
From 'No Line'---Stand Up Comedy. Fez would be VERY cool, but difficult to pull off live I think. From the past-----Please (PLEASE!!!!! One of my favorite live songs....EVER!!), or Discoteque, A sort of Homecoming/Bad -something new????? Winter!!! (the original version) I can do without: -In a little while

Songs to add.
Stand up comedy. As for older song, ouch thats hard, I was lucky enough to be in Barca 2 for "Electrical Storm" so would have to be "Running To Stand Still", "The First Time", "Miracle Drug" or "Trip Through Your Wires".

adding more new songs
I don't think you should add a lot more from the new album, it's good, but it's nice to hear some of the older ones too. May i suggest adding Pride (In the name of love)???Cant wait for Salt Lake!

Setlist for 2010
As long as they keep playing 'STREETS' I'm happy, absolutely NOTHING like it live. But anyway, to answer the questions: 1) NLOTH song: FEZ-Being Born - Very powerful intro (well, 1:30 into it) 2) Older song: Wow, hard to choose just one, I would say Exit, One Tree Hill, or Surrender, mainly because I have never seen any of them live and the chances they'd play them are almost zero (although they did bust out one tree hill during 2 of the last vertigo concerts).

talking about this great album, i can't wait to listen to Fez-Being Born and White As Snow!!! it would be GREAT!
Kero
I would like .....
FEZ ( because it's sounds like from space, gorgeous:) ) MOFO ( because this stage need it !!:))

FEZ+MOFO
Fez is the song that represents the mood of this album in my opinion. as opener it would be perfect. other records: this stage requires at least one song from POP. as this album is a masterpiece, it makes it difficult to decide. but... i think MOFO would fit the giant setting of the 360 stage. the huge screen calls also for THE FLY. imagine this typical word-rap in 360°!! and please give Your Blue Room another chance. great performance last year!!

I would love to here Stand Up Comedy. And as far as something from the past "Gloria" would be an amazing flash back! I would also love to see "Gone" in any U2 live set list again. I also just want to add that With or Without You could go away for a while:)

FEZ BEING BORN WOULD BE A GREAT OPENER! I THINK IT IS MORE POWERFULL THAN BREATH.

From NLOH, definitely would be nice to hear the original version of "Crazy"; even though it's cool to see Larry banging around the stage. The added song would be White As Snow. "Pride" or "Bullet The Blue Sky" would be nice to hear again (don't know why they took them off the setlist to begin with). PS: Please don't take away the "Space Oddity" intro...it gives me goosebumps just remembering how the whole experience started.
