I said just "better tunes", ahn91 asked me which ones, and I answered.
Nevertheless, at least eight or nine of those songs I mentioned have been used to close shows, and some others could arguibly/hypothetically do the same
Ten great songs to close the last show (In no particular order and I am not saying they are better or worse than "Kite" )
1. 40
2. Streets
3. WOWY
4. Bad
5. Love is Blindness
6. Out of Control
7. All I Want Is You
8. One
9. The Fly (gotta go...gotta go...gotta go)
10. Acrobat (assuming they''d never played it up until that point).
Good idea
1- Streets
2- Out of Control
3- "40"
4- Gone (saying "good bye" instead of "goodnight" at choruses; Edge's solo lasts super long)
5- Bad
6- I Will Follow
7- Walk On (extended like Elevation tour)
8- MLK
9- Pride (possibly)
10- Electric Co
11- NYD
12- A Sort of Homecoming (although would be better to open the final show)
EDIT: 13- Kite (but dot say "this is not goodbye at the end" say the opposite
14- City of Blinding Lights
To Edge as we have the information that he reads fan forums :
We are talking about years later here.2030,2040,2050...
You really don't have to finish the band job.No that is not our target.We don't want to see the song we are talking about.
Make 2060,but please make it as long as you can,do not get us wrong.
Always forever now?
That was 'The Passengers'
but would be very inept.
Miss Sarajevo last verse :
Is there a time for saying good-bye ?
A time,for giving away
Is there a time,to walk off the stage ?
When the night is set to freeze
Is there a time for saying good-bye ?
A time,for giving away Is there a time,to walk off the stage ?
When the night is set to freeze
I hope there isnt
An endless Bad.
With 10 or more snippets, like ruby tuesday, jerusalem, sympathy for the devil and almost every snippet they performed during their live history.
And then when the music is over, only Bono will sing this verse:
"Hold me now, oh hold me now
'til this hour has gone around
and I'm gone on the rising tide
for to face Van Diemen's Land."
