  1. The other pair probably has a mini teleprompter to help him remember lyrics?
  3. New McGuinness interview, mostly about his new TV adventures (with John Banville, the great Irish writer)
    Interesting pieces:
    McGuinness says relations between five men who worked together for 35 years are by definition “complex”, that he is closest to Bono and Adam Clayton. “I’ve had as much advice from Bono over the years as he has from me. It’s that kind of relationship, based on respect, fuelled by success and achievement.”

    Choosing his words carefully, McGuinness continues: “I think we were all pretty clear that it was time to end it . . . We were coming up to another campaign. They tend to last five years from the release of an album to the end of a world tour. It seemed like a good time to draw a line. It was always understood that I would stop before they did, because I’m 10 years older.”

    McGuinness shrugs off rumours about the circumstances of his departure. “There’s a tabloid newspaper hunger for Bono stories in Dublin,” he says.

    His loyalty to U2 continues.
  6. The tech guys are probably all telling Bono to stick with the lyrics, but Bono's thinking "Don't worry guys, I can totally freestyle this"
  7. Haha

    Bono : "Once in a while I f*cking own it !"
    Tech guy : "Ok, but most of the times you get stuck..."
    Bono : "Ooooh let's play Stuck in a moment tonight !!!"
    Tech guy 2 : "I told you to shut up Kevin ! You've ruined it !"
    Bono : "I could definately sneak in an In a little while snippet..."
    Tech guy 2 : "See..."
    Bono : "Yeah perfectly, I just have glaucoma"
    Tech guy 1 : "He meant you should play anything from Pop, not ATYCLB"
    Bono : "Never heard of it..."
  8. Hahahaha!

  9. This is odd.

    I'm reading that new U2 Rolling Stone special edition issue, and Bono is telling a story about himself and Christie Hynde (of the Pretenders) "during Pride" (whatever that means, during the recording of it?) and the writer of the article states that she sang backup vocals on the song. When the hell did that happen?
  11. Well I know that the song was recorded in 84! But I never knew that she was involved. Always thought it was Edge singing backup.
  12. You can read about it on U2byU2 methinks
