Some PLEBAn wrote a description of how Bono walks, and I noticed it's the exact same way I walk.

maybe you are bono.

I agree with this partially. I think Vertigo was clearly the best version, Larry's drumming aside. I wouldn't place ZooTV and Elevation that far apart though. ZooTV was solid, while Elevation's reinvention was interesting and one of the rare examples of creativity on that tour.

I'll give them points for creativity etc, but it wasn't a huge improvement. It was nice to see something done differently

This, ladies and gentlemen, is why you should not go to PLEBA.

I think it was in IQ that I read this. But he tucks his arm up like it's injured, which I often do. Only I do it to keep my sleeves from rolling down, not because I'm injured.

I like the Fly on Elevation but the real crime was Discotheque. Way to take the kick out of a song.

It wasn't "Oh My God!!! Thats Terrible!!"

It clearly didn't fit the tour. EBTTRT was another example. Although I love the version from Calgary II.

Ok, so from the tour you hate. What's everyone's favorite bootleg from Elevation 2001?

Calgary II is one of my favorites. Along with Boston IV.

Shit, sometimes i do that. Just as a habit though.

Hey, Diemen! Hope you didn't get rained out today.

(omg, I'm cool? Awesome.)

Oh, and I often hang onto the sleeves of shirts/sweaters/jackets, but that's because I'm short and a lot of my sleeves are too long. I like doing it. I like that Bono does it - I think it's endearing.

Oops, sorry. I'll stop PLEBA-ing. :shifty:

I must say, the posts there usually aren't quite as silly as that. When I get an inkling that they are, I scroll down, very, very quickly.

I really don't have one. Maybe 15 May 2001 if you forced me to pick?

Hmm.

I can't have anything on my forearms. No matter what I'm wearing, I have the sleeves rolled up around my elbows.

corianderstem · Mar 17, 2008

Aw come on. He does it in almost any video footage you see of him.

Oh shit, PLEBAns are loose in the rest of the forum?

And I don't do that, so I'm safe.

I always want my sleeves as long as possible anyway. You would too if you had eczema (unsightly) and albinism (don't want sunburn). Going outside in 39C in a long-sleeved shirt and trousers is anti-fun.

Nope, I managed to dodge most of the rain.

Spent some time at the Arboretum, and then the Museum of Flight. Even got a few pics of the Fremont Bridge Troll.

The rain did ruin my night time skyline shot, though.

Next time. :wink:

you're not fat. but come on, he does that whole pulling his jacket over his stomach thing to hide it. that's something most people do when they're self conscious of their stomach. i do it most of the times when i have jackets on too, i'll admit it. but it's just loltastic to see some huge rock star in 3D doing it for 85 minutes or whatevs.

He's a not a lumberjack, so i doubt he's ok.

And nothing can make PLEBA OK. :wink:

It helps if you pay attention to Bono. :wink:

Seriously, though. I swear every time I see footage of him standing or walking, he's doing the thing with his arm. Or gripping his too-long sleeves.

I was just talking about the arm thing, not the stomach thing. But yes, he does do that.

Axver · Mar 17, 2008

Come on, Bono, snippet something already. Ah well, I'm up to ISHFWILF. This will hopefully have Exodus, being a Lovetown performance and all.
