I think this performance is best remembered for the skipping of the chorus words to continue with the guitar sound at around 1.41…a brilliant moment when they all back off and let the tune speak for itself.
I was there when they filmed this video. It was just before their new album came out. Just 200 people were there. It was filmed at the riverside studios in London. They had Kings of Leon play a few songs before U2 came on. They also played miracle drug twice and city Of blinding lights and some times you cant make it on your own. It was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, I do believe you’re right in your observation, this is probably one of few times Bono actually plays guitar during this song!
