  1. I open this "weird" topic because sometimes during a live show there are some situations that drive Bono to say something funny.

    The one I like so much is on 2005-07-31 - Copenhagen during the snippet of "seven seconds" played on the music of Yahweh. The chords fit perfectly Cherry's song and Bono says: "These chords are pretty similar, Edge" and then laughs.....

    Neneh Cherry was attending at the show......




    Do you recall any?
  2. I've always asked myself the reason of the "Is this rock'n'roll !?!?!? " into Until The End Of The World. I don't understand this shouts. Do they mean a criticism against theirselves?

    Of course one of the funniest ever is "Guitar hero?" into Party Girl...

    it should sound more like:

    "You kind of invented the movie-stuff, didn't ya ?
    Yeah, under stained-glass windows there were the first movies
    Stories told, trough color, projected by sunlight
    The Duomo, just up the road, is like the first cinéma in Italy"

    Well, actually it's kinda a weird speech, but I assume it is related to the Milan Dome, its colored stain glasses and the light projected by them into the church creates some magnificent visuals.....

    This is my understanding.....by knowing the Duomo, I can say that
