Dear Bono Vox,
I noticed on U2.com that you still print your setlists out. Normally these are used to help a band remember the songs they're supposed to play but seeing as how you've played the same songs over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, I'm wondering what purpose this item might serve for yourself, Adam, Larry, and David.
Why do you waste a piece of paper every night? You've played about 80 shows (give or take) and that amounts to 80 pieces of paper. Stuck together, this would equal a stack of paper about 8.5 inches in diameter, 11 inches high, and 1/2 inch thick. This is not even accounting for the fact that Europeans use slightly larger paper! Do you realize that this amounts to about 1/8th the mass of a 5-year old tree? How do you reconcile this position with your supposedly pro-World stances? Was it not you that coined the phrase "One love, one life, with each other, you're ma sistas, you're my brothers"?
I've heard from various reliable sources that you purposefully only the best ancient forest trees for the production of your setlist papers. Is this true? If not, where did this rumour come from? It wouldn't surprise me that you'd use the Versaci of trees seeing as how you play the same setlist over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.
I don't know if Patti Smith knew that you still use setlist paper. I'm not sure she'd have agreed to play had she known. Same for Mr. Vedder.
My last point is that maybe you use ancient rainforest paper for your setlist paper. I hope this is not the case but how can we stop a band that created the PopMart tour and promoted it from a K-Mart.
Sincerely,
Andy
