The year is 1987. They also performed trip through your wires for the second time.

But it it was the first time that they played it with the lyrics as we now know it. The first performance of that song in januari 1986 was even more raw with unfinished lyrics.

When the songs are still fresh for U2 as well, they might not hit every note, but you

can feel the exitement in the songs. In those moments they are at there finest Playing new songs before relative small audiences pure and raw

Need to bring "Exit" back next tour. Seriously.

@gchq He was just playing some fill with chords. I actually liked the raw sound of it. Also, not the easiest thing to sing and play.
