What is everyone's favorite tour? As my avatar suggests, mine is, by far, Zoo TV.

ZooTV/Lovetown/Popmart. Can't split them


Popmart would win if it got off its feet better and had more setlist variation

Hmm, thats a toughie.

I like the Joshua Tree tour because of the cover versions of songs, and that it had Still Haven't Found every night

I like Zoo TV, but only the first two legs. They have WGRYWH and Still Haven't Found.

PopMart was great, but didn't have the Fly

Elevation, I have to choose between a show with the Fly or Still Haven't Found.
Also had Out of Control.

So far its a tie between those 4.

Oldest, funniest and toughest topic up there (together with Favorite Album). No possible answer, every tour has its ups and downs...

I'm going for PopMart, followed by Elevation. Zoo TV just seemed a little bit too "controlled" i think the word is, but it still comes in a respectable third.

Elevation was incredible. Such a soul-opening experience.

ZOO TV was also excellent for very different reasons, but I think music really needs to be able to reach out and connect with people on a personal, intimate level. Elevation was quite adept at achieving this singular effect.

choosing anything U2 is like choosing your favorite child, which perhaps some may be able to do, but for me I can never just choose one thing, I can argue why they are all my favorite
