    You should know that Dieder. Our national Dutch team were beaten earlier that day by Ireland when Jason McAteer scored. When Bono sees that beachball, it reminds him to the glorious (and deserved..) win earlier that day. He kicks that beachball into the crowd and than he says: 'There's still faith'. He still has faith in the Irish National Football team...it seems.

    That's my explanation...

    It was the day that the Irish soccer team reached the Worldcup 2002...
    I guess the audience had faith in a good ending on the WC.
    I expected most of you would know... They beat our dutch team...

    I think it was about the football-game earlier that day. It was some funny coincidence to see that beachball there in front of Bono and Edge. Maybe that's why the laughed about it. Dunno...
  5. Maybe Edge just wanted to laugh...

    I know they had beaten the Dutchies (cause I'm from Holland too). And I know why Bono kicked the ball in the crowd en why he wrapped the Irish flag round his body during New Years Day (imagine i'm Jason McAteer)...
  7. it's obviously something to do with football as Edge kicks the thing. I don't get the hilariousness of it still.

    If you got him, also ask him how the new album is going to sound and if he can send me some demo's...
