Where The Streets Have No Name
comment: In lieu of U2 actually performing at Glastonbury (their headlining appearance the night before was cancelled due to Bono having back surgery), The Edge makes a guest appearance with Saturday night's headliners Muse. They cover U2's live classic Streets to open the encore. Edge plays true to his usual style; the members of Muse adeptly take on the other roles and produce a faithful cover. This is the second time a member of U2 has performed on stage at Glastonbury; Adam was first, appearing with the Hothouse Flowers in 1989.

comment: U2 make their first ever appearance at the Glastonbury Festival, headlining Friday night 2011. They were originally one of 2010's headliners but had to pull out in May 2010 due to Bono's back surgery. Bad is played for just the second time in 2011; Out Of Control for just the third time in 2011. When performed, Moment Of Surrender is normally last in the set - this is just the second time it appears in a spot other than the closer, following U2's appearance on Saturday Night Live on 2009-09-26. The only three songs in the set which are not singles are Until The End Of The World, Bad, and Moment Of Surrender. An archive of tweets for this show can be found here.
