U2 Does Carnival

Yahoo! has pictures of our favorite guys singing and shouting as they take part in Brazil's Carnival celebration. According to Reuters, the band was invited to the Carnival by Culture Minister of Brazil, Gilberto Gil, and his wife, Flora. Check out the pictures here.

E! Online is also reporting the following about U2's time in Brazil: "Brazil's government giving a packet of condoms and anti-AIDS information to Bono, who praised the country's anti-AIDS campaign."

The Associated Press has more on U2 at Carnival here.

U2.com talks about Carnival here.

Looks like a fun time! What's Edge doing pointing the digital camera backwards tho? Is he taking a pic of Bono? He's got kind of a devilish impish grin on his face too!

 

[Thora]

Check out this site for the video clip of Bono and Gil singing "No woman no cry". A little rough at the beginning, but have patience.
