Originally posted by ASortOfDesire:Recently, I've been listening to/watching the live album/concert film Stop Making Sense by Talking Heads a whole lot. For the uninitiated, it'sone ofthe best concert films ever made. It begins with David Byrne playing Psycho Killer by himself and during the next three songs, another member of Talking Heads comes out on stage. Finally, during the fifth song, backup singers and additional musicians come out and play the rest of the show with them.
While this format wouldn't work exactly for U2 (and Bono has nothing on David Byrne's dance moves), they do have many songs that work well with a horn section, string section, or backup singers. Thus, I present my version, inspired by Stop Making Sense, U2's Abbey Road show, U2's Apollo Theatre show, Bono and Edge's Decade of Difference Show, and the Zoo TV tour.
1. MLK
Bono
2. In God's Country
Bono, Edge
3. A Man and A Woman
Bono, Edge, Adam
4. Pride (In the Name of Love)
Bono, Edge, Adam, Larry
5. Angel of Harlem
6. When Love Comes to Town
7. The Saints Are Coming
8. California (There Is No End To Love)
9. Stuck in a Moment You Can't Get Out Of
Full band, horns
10. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
Full band, backup singers
Intermission. The horn section and backup singers leave and are replaced by a string orchestra.
11. Lights Of Home (St. Peter's String Version)
Full band, orchestra
12. Cedarwood Road
13. Staring at the Sun
Bono, Edge, orchestra
14. Every Breaking Wave
15. One / Unchained Melody
16. Bad / 40
17. Where the Streets Have No Name
Full band, orchestra
18. Numb
Edge, Adam, Larry, backup singer(s)
Bono is backstage changing, the horns and strings come back on stage. Bono's part of Numb is sung by one of the backup singers.
19. Desire
MacPhisto, Edge, Adam, Larry, horns
20. With or Without You / Shine Like Stars
MacPhisto, Edge, Adam, Larry
21. Love Is Bigger Than Anything In Its Way / All You Need Is Love
MacPhisto, Edge, Adam, Larry, orchestra, horns
22. All I Want Is You / Walk to the Water
MacPhisto, Edge, Adam, Larry, orchestra
Ends like the studio version with the orchestra continuing to play as the band members walk off
