Originally posted by Fairbanks007:Hello all. Songs occasionally go missing from my iTunes library and I'm unable to locate them again. Most recently, this happened to one of my favorite versions of "Bad". I'm looking the performance where Bono complains about drug smugglers "walking through Glasgow Customs while they're stoppin' rock and roll bands." He also changes the lyrics from "silken skies and burning flak" to "let go of that and not want it back. Put gold in your body and it turns to black." I think this was probably in the Zoo TV era, but I haven't been able to locate it.
If anyone knows the show I'm talking about and could let me know the performance date, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I was looking in the wrong city and at least 8 years too early. I can have mildly OCD tendencies at times, and I'm afraid to tell you how much this has been bugging me. Super appreciated.

You're welcome! It's one of my favourite versions as well, and your description just sounded familiar enough.. I thought maybe they did sort of the same lyrics at the next show in Glasgow, so I checked that one first, but that clearly wasn't the case.

Did you check both Glasgow shows ?
