Request: Bono with Moby or Bob Dylan

[bigbang]

A very weird and specific request.

I saw Moby promoting his new album/photo book "Destroyed" and
was curious if there's any pics of Bono or U2 with Moby. Bono once even
named Moby the 5th member of U2! (link)

I was also wondering if there's any pics of Bono with Bob Dylan
anytime after 1997. I would love to see an older Bob with Bono.

Thanks!

Not with Bob Dylan, but still kind of cool.

According to the info on the photo it says it was at the Mandalay Bay Casino in Las Vegas on 3-1-1999. Maybe Dylan was playing and brought Bono up? I'm not really sure about the last part, just guessing!

Bob has his full on cranky face cranked up for sure!

Very very interesting, this would place Bob just a little before "Love & Theft" came out. Sure would love to hear what they played but seems like this was a private gig.

Is that Larry leaning on the scaffolding inbetween Bono and Dylan?!

 

[bonocomet]

Looks like Larry to me too!


Ok I looked up the Dylan show on U2gigs. Here is the info there:

1999-03-02: House Of Blues, Mandalay Bay Hotel - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

Setlist: Knockin' On Heaven's Door

Comments: Bono makes a guest appearance at a Bob Dylan concert. During the performance, he improvises some new lyrics.

U2 Las Vegas, 1999-03-02, House Of Blues, Mandalay Bay Hotel, Various Dates - U2 on tour

That site is a good source of reference for these things

If it has information about that tiny appearance then really, yeah, it is.
I'm pretty blown away! Thanks so much again

Before Moby released Play, he was undergoing some really drastic changes by living in abandoned warehouse, and Bono was the one that supported him by telling him that Animal Rights was a masterpiece and that he shouldn't leave the music industry but to try harder instead.

It's so nice to see Moby and Bono together, rare pictures that revive from 1999-2001 the moment where I discovered both of them.

I had heard that Bono told Moby he loved Animal Rights but didn't know that Bono also
encouraged Moby to keep up the fight. No wonder they're such good friends.

I've read that Moby considers Achtung Baby his favorite album of the last 25 years as well.
Moby has also considered producing U2 before, playing songs together with Bono in a hotel in LA (link)

I found some more (small) photos of Moby and Bono together around 2005:

.. and Moby supporting U2 at Slane Castle, 2001:
