U2 bust out “The Wanderer”

U2 performed “The Wanderer” four times during today’s (Nov. 2) soundcheck at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Band crew told fans, who could hear the performances outside the arena, that the band were taping the song’s performance. Stay tuned to see if tonight’s audience will get to hear a performance of the song inside the arena.


“I Walk the Line: A Night for Johnny Cash,” a television tribute to the original wanderer, is scheduled to air on CBS on Nov. 16. Sheryl Crow, the Foo Fighters, Norah Jones, Kid Rock, Dwight Yoakam, and U2 are among the artists who are appearing in the tribute.

  1. What excites me even more, is the rumor that U2 is also rehearsing ‘MOFO’ and ‘The Unforgettable Fire’! O boy! Where can I get a plane to the States?!

    I’ve heard many rumours on this tour about songs being rehearsed.. I’m sure that U2 rehearses some rare songs like Mofo and The Wanderer..

    But why rehearse (and play) them so late in the tour? Europe is missing out on all these rare songs!

  5. Why get a plane? I suppose/hope the boys will be back in town next summer, preferably Feyenoord Stadium or Goffert Park.

  7. To PopTart: Sweet Dreams. On both counts. I don’t think U2 is gonna return to Europe next summer, playing for us again. Rumours say they’re gonna play in South-America, Asia & Australia next summer. But if you’re right, don’t get your hopes up. Those motherf******s at Mojo’s will probably arrange for U2 to play in de kattenbak again.
