Throwing Bad into such a time restrictive slot just seems silly.

I reckon Bono knew exactly what he was going to do before they played that song, the narrative he used that he saw a girl getting crushed so he thought he would jump down and save her is BS that's what stadium security are there for, infact him doing that only made the situation worse as you can see the crowd pushing forward and during the 80s safety barriers were at a minimum and been on the pitch could be quite dangerous during a concert.Had they not played bad would he have done that?Definitely not ,but the performance of the song was great and Bono adding the snippets at the end really added to it ,but as I said in a previous post had they done a condensed version of Bad and played IWF,Pride and NYD they would have topped Queen IMO.
