Pictures do not tell the whole story. Who else was there? What the circumstances were? Are the girls friends of the family or friends of friends... Trial by media can be a dangerous and inaccurate prospect.
Originally posted by UkThe new U2 album could be released at the start of 2009, a band spokeswoman has revealed.
The Irish rock legends have been working on the follow-up to 2004's "How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb" for some months, with producer Brian Eno.
Bono has promised the record, thought to be called "No Line On The Horizon", will be their "best ever".
Speaking about a possible release date, the U2 representative said the group remained hard at work.
"We still don't have a release date for this album, the band are still working. It might be early in the New Year."

The Dublin Docklands Development Authority has put on hold the development of the U2 Tower for 12 months to allow property and financial markets to improve.
The Geranger consortium had been selected as the provisional preferred bidder to design, construct and finance the U2 Tower late last year.
Geranger consists of Ballymore Properties, Patrick McKillen and August Partners (U2 band members and management).
The Authority said that negotiations on the deal were suspended "to allow for an improvement in the current uncertainty surrounding the property and financial markets".
It added that it continued to have "full confidence" in the project, which is an important element of its master plan for the docklands area.
The Tower was to have included a hotel and residential and retail areas, as well as a recording studio for the band.
Originally posted by AssociatedDUBLIN, Ireland – Plans to build the tallest building in Ireland — with new recording studios for Irish supergroup U2 on top — were suspended Friday because of Dublin's slumping property market and slide into recession.
The Dublin Docklands Development Authority said it remains committed to building the long-planned U2 Tower, but a souring economy at home and abroad means the project must be shelved. It expressed hope of reopening negotiations with potential developers within 12 months.
"The objective is to see this landmark project completed. However, given the current unfavorable economic environment, more time is needed at this juncture," the Dublin development agency said in a statement, adding it was "confident that these economic uncertainties are short- to medium-term."
The project shelving caps a six-year struggle and three rounds of architectural competition to build a U2 Tower. It raises doubts about whether the current lavish design, by world-renowned British architect Norman Foster, will ever get beyond the draftsman's board.
The projected 200 million euro ($250 million) construction would have dominated the low-rise skyline of Dublin, where conservationists have successfully shot down other skyscraper projects.
