Desire4Bono said:I think he does wear the shades partly because they annoy people, and if I were him and read this thread, I would keep wearing them and grow my hair and stubbly beard just because of what some of you said LOL! He is stubborn!

I agree. However, being a member of the female sex, I do, uh, respond to certain images in a certain way.
U2Kitten said:I think that comment about the shades being off and the song being heavy was about the Tribute to Heroes thing, I remember that when it happened. In the concerts, he took them off long before One- it was after UTEOTW, which means that most of ever show he had no shades. The only time I saw pics of him with shades almost the whole time was Slane, and that was outside. I think it's the sun that bugs him more than indoor lights.
u2loopy said:I think it was Matt from the website @U2 who once said something along the lines of, "On stage, when Bono's shades come off, you know the song is heavy". Or something like that..cannot remember the exact quote.
I think it's his whole 'character' thing (in the 90's) like during the Zootv Syndney video he's got the shades on for the first couple of songs and then when it's time to sing "ONE" the shades come off.

I read a quote about Elevation tour and about the shades and it was from a reporter that wrote a review of the show :
"When sunglasses come off, you know Bono means business"
I dunno, either way is good with me: glasses or no glasses. I think the blue see-through ones he wore on Elevation tour are perfect; his best glasses ever!
!!!Bono's shades said:Bono wears shades because his beautiful blue eyes have such a devastating effect on women that it became necessary for him to keep them covered most of the time to prevent mass hysteria.
