Yep, first time it was ever played. I hope they play it on their next tour, whenever that is.

I would be very surprised to see anything before 2013. Typically this kind of talk starts soon after a tour is done. Then you will hear Bono say something like "Egde is on fire", blah, blah. Trust me, it will be a while

I hope it's a while, let Bono rest his voice.

Time to put together a decent cd.. Yes?
It's two great ones..then one horribly off the beaten path to prove they are still innovators ...
Then another great cd (2013?) with a stripped down stage and none of the popmart and 360 nonsense..

Sound about right?

Look .. Like most of you .. I love U2 when they embrace their core rock and roll song writing...

"get on your boots" ?
Not so much...

Oh yeah, they work at a snail's pace...and Bono will say that its a "true rock record" and it'll be filled with mid tempo songs etc. Can't believe a word out of the man's mouth.

Funny I actually like that song...lyrics may be silly, but the riff and bassline are great, it was great live.

or bono needs to define what he thinks 'rocking' means
