Showtime 2011

10 Feb 2011283
This tour started way back in June 2009 and now here we are in February 2011.

But every time the tour opens up on a new leg, the band, as Edge says, think about 'changing things up'.

Last year, hundreds of you told us of  songs you'd like them to put into the European leg - an unplayed track from 'No Line' or a classic from an earlier album.

But no-one could have guessed that a handful of unreleased tracks - North Star, Return of the Stingray Guitar, Glastonbury etc - would arrive in the show nor that Love Rescue Me, which hadn't been performed for twenty years, would make a reappearance down under.

The year before no-one predicted that Ultraviolet or Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me would become 360 showstoppers.

So what would be a great surprise to hear in the show in 2011?

Let's do what we did last year: what's a songs you'd love to see in the set, that hasn't turned up on the tour to date ? One song only and why you'd love to hear it.

(Click on a city in these 2009 or 2010 dates to remind yourself what songs have been in the set in the tour so far.)

'If God will send his Angles' & 'Dancing
I'm dancing barefoot Headed for a spin Some strange music drags me in It makes me come up like some heroine Hey, if God will send his angels And if God will send a sign And if God will send his angels Would everything be alright?

African Sun At last
It's got to be 'Fez (Bring Born)'. U2 have been the soundtrack of my life since I first heard 'I will follow' in 1980. I moved to Cape Town, South Africa from the UK 18 months, and this was the song that resonated with that move and my hopes for a new life and work in the Rainbow nation. Arriving in South Africa felt like I had come home. It would be fitting if the band was to play this track live in South Africa. If they do, I think I'll cry tears of joy. 'African sun at last'!

Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses
Please, play Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses in Brazil abr 09' and 10'. One of the best songs for me. And please, say before to sing: "this song is for a special fan, Flavio" ...It´s my dream and I'll be there!

W POP, ZOOROPA AND NO LINE ON THE HORIZ
Play Unknown Caller and The fly and a question for you: Where is POP?????
Something from the album POP!!!
We didn't heard something from POP since many year ago. (Just in snippets) Now, it will be magnificent, songs from POP, for example DISCOTHEQUE, MOFO, or THE FIRST TIME. And these songs are a little bit electronic, and these songs will make a PARTY in the house!! :P (Like GO CRAZY REMIX)

In the towers of steel, belief goes on a
Heartland But I know U2 won't play this. Only one band has played this live successfully "Lemon" the band from South America. I'm afraid Bono just doesn't have the same voice as he did during the Rattle and Hum days for this. And click tracks for this song would be a crime. Teleprompters would be okay though.

BAD
Besides One (my favourite song of all time) and a list of about 30 LOL... I'd love to hear BAD, it's a beautiful song
rodrigoms2000

utsa2004
Drowning Man & Acrobat
The first, it could be the best ending song. It it a crime the band has not played these incredible and emotional songs!!
cassianep

monica martino

God part II
i love this "he's gonna kick the darkness till it bleed daylight" damn this is so hard, very cool
StevenDay
running to stand still or LAPOE
Personally, I would love to hear running. such a beautiful song and sounds awesome live. also, i know its from vertigo, but i thing it would be right to hear Love and Peace because of the recent events in Egypt. in honor of the Egyptians who are struggling to get their own peace and freedom from that terrible regime.
