Fixing Problems with Vertigo

What song do you think should break up the ugly collision of SYCMIOYO and LAPOE in your typical Vertigo setlist?

Dirty Day would be perfect.

Wake Up Deadman

I think they work well off one another........

Someone please get rid of "One"........I always felt like I was at some lame, tired Eagles concert whenever they busted that out.

I like this idea. One Tree Hill could possibly work too.

1 of these

One Step Closer
The Unforgettable Fire
One Tree Hill
Exit

none. the transition is great. thought the band did throw Yaweh and Stuck between these songs a couple times (right?)

Correct. 2005-09-20 and 21 in Chicago had Yahweh and 2005-11-04 in Las Vegas had Stuck. Off the top of my head, I think those are the only times songs have come between SYCMIOYO and LAPOE on Vertigo.

An acoustic version of stuck in a moment, or red hill mining town.

LemonMacPhisto · 07-24-2006, 06:55 PM

Yahweh
The Wanderer
Wake Up Dead Man
Dirty Day

all of those work, but Yahweh is even better, since it has some of the Co-Exist elements Bono was talking about and is a smooth transition from the slower part of the show into the "War" bit.

I have to disagree. You have two songs that are completely different. Bono finishes singing his ballad to his father and immediately goes into his Co-Exist character? It needs something in there that's in the middle ground. (i.e.: Dirty Day)

Agreed. I've always found it a very clunky transition lacking in cohesion. It doesn't work on the album and the live setting doesn't improve things. The songs are too different and I don't feel they should be paired together.

well, i like how the transition mirrors the HTDAAB tracklisting. . . it's like Kite -> Gone but better
