    I think he learnt after ZooTV up to Popmart then.
  3. Smoking cigars isn't like smoking cigarettes. You're not really supposed to inhale from cigars in the same way. But as far as I know Bono still smokes both, at least some of the time. Larry too.

    FWIW, it's a ridiculously hard habit to kick. Took me ages and many tries.
  5. Yes, I already started to miss Stuck In A Moment acoustically

    NEW INXS DEMO...FEATURING BONO?
    The switchboard lit up like a Christmas tree at @U2 HQ today when word of a new INXS demo hit the Internet. Yes, INXS.

    Remember—U2 and INXS have been friends for decades, and Bono was particularly close to their original lead singer, the late Michael Hutchence.

    So after a much-anticipated new song, "Tiny Summer," began streaming on their official website in response to fans hungry for fresh music, we began getting emails and tweets about the sound of the lead singer's voice on this particular track. It sounded very familiar. It sounded like Bono.

    Then, we saw the somewhat tongue-in-cheek note that Andrew Farriss posted, and it all made a little more sense. He explains why it took so long for him to write new material (he needed the magic to happen) and details the genesis of this track:

    "Recently at a party, I met a fellow songwriter by accident, an Irish bloke, and we sat around playing songs on acoustic guitars. Despite his funny accent, we then spent a few days songwriting and singing together… song magic was in the room again.”

    One can only assume the "Irish bloke" he's referring to is indeed Bono.

    If you haven't already had a listen, make your way over to their site while it's still up. It's a hauntingly beautiful, acoustic number.

    And the singer sounds fantastic.

  11. Sounds great, but i dunt think its Bono. I'd like to be wrong though.
  12. Yep, nice song, but it doesn't sound like Bono to me either...
