I just put up a pretty rare video (that I don't think many of you have seen) up on my site.

The interview took place on May 29 2001 in Montreal by a german station.

If any one is interested in seeing it just go to:

to my video section..

it's a great interview!!! It's a large file though (26 megs)

Enjoy!

Ahh, May 29th... the day I spent wandering around in a daze trying to figure out where U2 were most likely to be in MY city....

Wasn't Bono in Ottawa that day with Chretien?

Um, I'm going to say thanks for posting the video even though I can't see it. (*sigh*-- sometimes I really hate having a Mac). What was the interview like?

He saw Chretien at the October concert... no?

The interview is pretty funny... I love it when Bono says how Larry likes to go out at night and check out the pretty ladies.

It's a great interview

Mmm, yeah, I think you're right, it was in October.

Aughhh.... what else does he say? I want to hear!!! :)


Erm...

interviewer:"what is important to keep a band together"

Bono: "personal hygiene!"

interviewer:"What would you do if one of you says that they would need a break forever?"

Bono:"I'd say that drummers we can find them anywhere!"

Larry:"I can tell that it's gonna be a drummer bad day!"

Thank you so much, Melpop! I've been looking for this interview for almost a year now

I only got halfway through before my Realplayer crapped out, but so far it's great! Favorite parts:

1) What the hell! Was Adam drinking tea with a little saucer?? Bwahahaha!

2) Bono joking about standing in the kitchen and turning the light on and off when they were finished with the tour, and Larry suggesting that he run around the house at full speed

3) Edge is so talky!

4) I like how Edge says "garage"

5) What the hell was up with the frame that says "Sex Pistols" at 10:21.2??

Off to see if it'll let me finish watching!

Aaaand apparently I was so excited I posted that twice.

I'm done! Great interview!!

I love to see interviews where they all are there. They have so many inside jokes and "mean" comments about each other.

I agree with Mirrorball girl and the parts she mentioned, specially Bono on the kitchentable turning the light on and off. LOL

I also like when Edge said that he could be the next Schwartzenegger (or how it's spelled) or.... not.... LOL And Larry then said something mean about it and Edge looked so, so sad and tiny.

About the jokes, what really made me happy was Larrys comment on it. They talked about what keeps them together and later on on a different issue he said that "this is what keeps us together, the humor" I love it, they seem to have so much fun when they are together. Laugh all the time and comment on each others answer to the reporter, almost like noone else is supposed to hear.

Hmm... *U2 fuzzies*

YES! I loved that! I was also amused that Adam's only line, I think, in the entire interview was "It's an elevation thing."

Oh, and Larry? HOT.

it was only Elevation though. I thought they would show one more but they just talked... whish isn't a bad thing.

Adam... hehe... he doens't say much but when he does, it's always something funny and a classic comment.

Hey, Naya... you wanna meet when I visit? I know some plans on doing something the 27th is up, but not what. I'm in for anything!!
