Bono singing on the Elevation tour

"I’m like the clown, calling people to look at the stage…it’s like putting a magnet to iron fillings, drawing them in. And once they’re in that position, you can feed them, give them what you have. We give — and people look, and we give all — and that can affect people’s emotions; so we get a sensitive audience, people who are aware." - Bono, 1979
