Bono in Baden-Baden, German Media Prize

[Merc]

So we have Bono in Germany, Edge at Sundance and Adam wherever he is, maybe Larry is getting a haircut?

Well, at the 23rd, Bono was in Dublin ---> Copenhagen ---> Baden-Baden, Edge was at the Sundance in Utah, Adam was in London and Larry... ... could be at the hairdresser!

Yes I speak perfectly good german *grabs headphones very quickly*

who is the dude saying all the stuff? and who's the other guy?

THAT PICTURE IN THE BACKGROUND!
it is.. *the* Fly picture !!!!!! but they're only showing the head!(gee I wonder why )
when the dude says Bono's the biggest/greatest rock star of this era... Bono's face! Priceless he's like nooooo Im not! XD and he yawned
I really can follow only half of this. my german isn't what it used to be!
Bono starts applauding, whole audience too
that guy speaks funny english!
jesus this is still one hour left! oh well...

 

[kellyahern]

Bono's speech is a little after the 30 minute mark I think.

 

[Merc]

Yeah, that was a good start!

 

[Galeongirl]

and note he took off the headphones when the dude started about the other guy again...
*searches Bonospeech*

 

[tommyvill]

WOW! ...nice car!!

 

[nikkyjade]

thanks to whoever posted the video! was great to hear Bonbo's speech...didnt understand a word of the German guy...except when he spoke english

and thanks for those GORGEOUS pics!

best quote of that speech?

"I am not a hippy.....i dont have flowers in my hair.....i am from punk rock!"

 

[Galeongirl]

I finally reached the Bonospeech, but now it's being weird, making interrruptions each second
stupid thign!
also, am I being blind or is it the lightening or did Bono change shades between coming out of the plane and being there and speaking?
off the Plane I am pretty sure it were Orange shades(would be new color) but it might've been the lightening or so, cuz now it are the pink ones again!

Bono's fancy footwear!

 

[nikkyjade]

he got changed completely i think didnt he? because i seem to remember seeing in the plane pics the denim jacket and black tshirt underneath his coat

whereas on the other pics and video of the conference...he has the brown jacket, red glasses and a button-shirt.....and most notably minus the cowboy hat

yeah I noticed that too
anybody knows where he'll be tomorrow? (he said he'd meet merkel somewher ethis week... I assume that was today or so)
he's wearing his black shirt (half unbuttoned ofcourrse ) here... and the brownish blazer on it.. I think he indeed changed for the evening Posh Bono...


I'm sorry I can't help posting this

the guy talking right before bono, was our former foreign minister, Joshka Fischer. his speech was brilliant. he's been a U2 fan for at least 20 years

the other one is the man who organizes those events every year.

they showed the whole thing on TV today here, with an awful translator talking over bono. it was so bad, i had to turn off the TV, he translated U2 as U-Two (U-Zwei)

oh btw he said he's meeting Merkel today and will take a bath in Baden-Baden and then he's off to Davos.

what's davos?
by the way, could you translate the piece Bono said in german I kinda understood what he said, but not exactly... I must say, he doesn't have THAT much of an accent there... that Joshka Fischer trying to speak english was worse
and I lolled over the bath thingy awwww in the end, who are all the people B is hugging? he's such a big hugging bear

 

[anjarw]

Fischer is actually really good in english, i mean he was foreign minister for a long time.

davos is in switzerland, the world economics forum is there this week

he said (in quite a good german btw): Wir wissen, dass uns die Probleme zuhause erreichen, wenn wir sie nicht woanders lösen.

which means: we know, that these problems will affect us at home, if we don't solve them somewhere else.

Bono here, Bono there, Bono everywhere.

Does he ever SLEEP?? He's always doing something....

Actually, this is the first "job" related appearance he's made since the end of the third leg. So he did have a good chunk of time for a break (which of course he deserves).

I always question how he does it
