Yes, I met Bono again. I just asked him to sign my ticket from Dublin 2 and I said it was my birthday and he was cute and said, "I most certaintly will" and "Happy Birthday".

Thank you for the pictures, everyone. It strikes me as odd to see Brian and the other bodyguard in these pictures. Normally in events and functions I didn't think they would be that close to Bono such that they're captured in the pictures too. I know I always see them right next to Bono (or the other band members) when they're signing for fans, but not at a public event... Unless they're also on orange alert ever since the bomb scare the weekend before.

Maybe Brian was also a guest at the event, not just working. I have no idea, just a thought. He looked really nice anyways

Funny that you noticed that..

Oh yes, the bomb scare.
..
Holland is now surprised when events ARE going well.

I think that was because only the people who donated a lot of money were aloud to be near Bono.

You're right!
That's a bad kinda of thought

 

[venus]

Oh yes!!

And Jamila, I too saw on Facebook that someone wrote that he was wearing a tux... I was like "BONO IS WEARING A TUX???!!! "
It's so not like him!!

I have to admit that I'm disappointed he wasn't! Not that he didn't look good, it's just that I've never seen him in a tux.

Thanks to everyone who's posted pictures! I'm glad you had a good time meeting him, Laura. He sounds so sweet, as usual.

 

[alanah]

thanks LM for posting..

 

[U2FloridaFan]

I was there too. Pics are coming.

Good for you, Laura!! We're on Bono overload lately!!! I love it. The man's out every night at a different event. I wanna move to NY!!

Ahhh I can imagine him in a tux
I bet we would have a thread dedicated especcially for the "Bono in a Tuxedo"

For now, we could only dream.... But I think someday, we'll see him in a tux

 

[domo-kun]

I hate tuxedo's , just a matter of taste , but good with that pretty suit in black he wore a while back.

 

[lauramullen]

Brian was in a tux and I think he had to be because of the event. I guess he had to blend in.

 

[domo-kun]

Yep and it fits Brian well I have to say.

[hcbiggs2002]

Finally the mystery of where Bono's biting/oral fixation originated, from playing rugby! Thanks so much for finding and uploading these videos!!

And yet another great speech by our man!

Loved the bit about sports! haha

 

[Andreianloth]

Pretty funny

 

[U2fan003]

He was 'the one who bites'

 

[Andreianloth]

Yep

 

[U2_Jackie]

lol "we stay up too late and drink too much wine at your dinner parties" of course Bono would say something like that

 

[lauramullen]

He was drunk when he left that night or at least he seemed it.
