I'm pretty sure U2 will play Velvet Dress live again.
IMO it's the best song off POP and was GREAT live!!
Little more work on it, and we'll get a masterpiece.
More lenght and all the verses and the guitars properly
(not like at Vegas) so OOOOOOOOOOOHHHH, it's wonderful!!!!!!

I also believe that Mofo has done it's work quite well
and it will be put up for rest as most Pop songs.
I'd like to hear Tomorrow, Gloria and, yes, Drowning Man!!!
To think of more, Party Girl, A Celebration, Boy-Girl,
Ultraviolet and hmm.... A NEW TOUR!!! MEGA TOUR!!!
GIGA TOUR!!! And honesty. That's what I want. Some of
the War/UF thing. BAD!!! Bad as a proper song, with
Bono singing it well.. Giving his all (I know I can't
ask him to give himself to it every night, but, hmm,
I hope he can) And Edge playing stratocasters again..
Or even semi-acoustics, but for God's sake not Les Paul!!!
Only person it fits well is Jimmy Page.. The sound might be
a bit better on HMTMKMKM, but it doesn't suit Edge well.
Bono could get rid of the bubble suit. I know some people
loved that one, but I didn't. It's his choice. :)

Oh Adam what a bass you've got. The yellow one.
And mirrorballs!!! They're SO great!!!

Larry keep the haircut. Keep up the good work.

Anyway the post I thought making a bit shorter ended up
quite long.. I'm watching PopMart Las Vegas as I'm writing
this so that might be the reason...... ;)
