Perhaps some fans value the authentic sound of the band more than others. Once you take that away it becomes unmemorable, forgettable. There’s probably a lot of fans who don’t listen to the u2 minus one performance either. Unless the visuals are the absolute be all and end all for you then why watch/listen to a sphere performance when you can stick on the same song from several different eras that do include all 4 band members? Peace on earth and so cruel are the only songs I’ll visit again in future because there isn’t alternative full live versions to turn to.

Did you go? Or basing your assumption on some mixes, YouTube and the odd IEM

No I had zero interest in attending once I knew Larry wouldn’t be there. I’ve listened to enough though to realise what I suspected that Bram was never going to sound like Larry. It stands out like a sore thumb. I know a lot of fans wouldn’t have attended or listened if Bono wasn’t singing. Some will argue drummers are more easily replaced but when you’ve listened to and know the songs like I do I can’t agree with that. I only want to hear Larry play drums for u2, that’s the only way the songs can sound authentic. That doesn’t mean other fans are wrong for being able to enjoy the songs with Bram, we all hear and enjoy things differently.
