Bono The Edge: A Sort Of Homecoming With Dave...

Clayton first mentioned a re-recording project during a June 2021 interview with Rocky O'Riordan on the band's U2-X Radio station on Sirius XM: "we are playing around with rearranging some of the songs that we have and setting them in a more acoustic environment. Edge got a bit of a bee in his bonnet and... said let's look at these songs and imagine them in a different context. So we are playing around with that. He's putting a lot of work into changing the keys, and moving them onto piano and that sort of thing." Clayton added that he hoped for a release by the end of 2021.[16][17]

Footage from this concert provides the through-line of A Sort of Homecoming, though the real joy of the piece comes from the way Letterman approaches both his subjects and surroundings with good-natured curiosity, as he embarks on a sort of travelogue. In some ways, it works best as a hangout film; some of the most enjoyable moments are when Letterman and the musicians are simply hanging out in an Irish pub for an impromptu song session (Dermot Kennedy also makes an appearance). 041b061a72
