Some of you may remember this news article...after Bono made comments regarding online copyright infringement, the Marketing Manager of a UK Internet Service Provider verbally attacked Bono telling him "Shut up and stick to singing!"

Imagine my amusement when I recently discovered the same Marketing Manager was found to be uploading hundreds of copyrighted pornographic images to a website, not an adult XXX website but a motorcycle website used by men, women and children.

Unfortunately for him, he didn't try very hard to hide his identity as he used the same website to boast about his job title even posting a link to his company's website!

Obviously he no longer works for the ISP.

what they said

"I remember Anton [Corbijn] saying, 'Oh there's the Yoshua tree'. He couldn't pronounce the J. So we stood there having our photograph taken by the Yoshua tree. We wanted to laugh but Anton would get very upset if people laughed, or even smiled. It was all very funny, not that you'd know by the facial expressions on the album cover." - Larry on the cover for The Joshua Tree

did you know

The inspiration for the song Lemon was Bono seeing his mother in some old movies wearing a dress with a yellow tint.
