The Fly (#U2ieTour Mix) - Boston 4

Original story (u2wanderer.org) by Aaron J. Sams / Christopher Jenkins (2015-07-16)

Last night during the fourth #U2ieTour performance in Boston, MA, the intermission was a cover of “The Fly” performed by Gavin Friday, instead of the video of Johnny Cash doing “The Wanderer.” Like days gone by, “The Fly” was accompanied by a barrage of words flashing on the screen. Below is the list of what was seen last night. If a word is shown twice, it is because it was repeated a second time in a different font. Many thanks to Christopher Jenkins for providing us with this transcription of the screens. The transcription was done thanks to watching multiple videos on youtube, including this excellent one from Tim Neufeld. Other videos used included videos from squinty4e and Doug Camp. Many thanks.

The recording of “The Fly” performed by Gavin Friday was originally released on “AHK-toong BAY-bi Covered“, a collection of covers of Achtung Baby tracks released in 2011 through Q Magazine. It was originally thought that the version being used last night had been further remixed, with the addition of an extra verse at the end, but this could have Bono performing live inside the Rabbit Hole. The recording by Gavin Friday has the following credits: Arranged By – Declan Gaffney, Gavin Friday. Assisted By – Ronan Phelan. Bass, Guitar – Declan Gaffney, Mitch Davis. Drums – Alex Wyer. Producer – Declan Gaffney. Programmed By – Declan Gaffney, Mitch Davis. Vocals – Gavin Friday.
