Bono says there are "2 words not allowed in this stadium, but six words that are" when introducing Pride. Later on in the song he says what the 2 words are, what are those 2 words? I've had this boot for 15 years and no matter how many times I've listened to it, I still can't understand what the two words are.
 
Wasn't this the same concert that Bono was being threatened by the mayor or something over Dr. King and civil rights? Because it was during Pride might mean something...

:shrug:
 
I believe the two words are Governor Meecham who was helping to block the MLK holiday in AZ at the time. Not sure if it was those actual words but it was something involving that.
