Boston Elevation Dvd, it's about adam
and the other one I still have that piece of the interview where he said that... Brilliant! he shut two interviewers in once... I never found the rest of the interview tho, you had to pay for it or so why pay when you already got the best piece?

 

[Bono Mot]

Thanks GG!

I swear, I can't stop laughing over the use of the word "womenfolk!" (Gotta get out that DVD!)

"...mysterious powers over womenfolk.."

it's originally in dutch, was for a dutch/flemish magazine, can't remember the exact thing..

 

[Devlin]

I always want to know which of Adam's instruments he's referring to, but I'm too curious for my own good..

Bono doesn't have sexual fantasies? Uh. Huh.
Then again, considering...
He might not.

 

[JCOSTER]

"Everybody, except me, has sexual fantasies." Bono.

Thats because he is the fantasy.

 

[imogen]

Thats because he is the fantasy.

LOL

 

[Galeongirl]

Thats because he is the fantasy.

I wonder why I don't believe him tho...

 

[thankyou]

Hi Greety! Goedendag!

they were being interviewed on the radio, around the time of Achtung baby, I believe. It's on a video if I remember well, called: "U2 Achtung Baby, the videos and a whole lot of interference." (Anyone correct me if I got it wrong. )


I recently saw it listed on ebay for only GBP .99. It's a good one.

somone should add to the wikiquote.org site of all this...

What a city, what a night, what a crowd, what a bomb, what a mistake, what a wanker you have for a President.
Acceptance speech at the MTV Europe Music Awards, referring to French nuclear testing in Pacific (1996)

 

[Galeongirl]

yea when the EMA's of 2005 were, they showed that clip!!!!! that was sooo funny

also, in a dutch interview when asked how chirac reacted in 2004 when Bono got knighted... they never mentioned the thingy only chirac's advisor eyed him a bit..

btw, I think it's from 1994, not 96.. 96 was in euuuh elsewhere, and this was in Paris... they got the Best Alternative Album for Zooropa btw..

 

[BrownEyedBoy]

Bono got knighted?

 

[Galeongirl]

Bono got knighted?

aye he became a chevalier le legion d'honneur, aka knight in the order of honor
in 2004 that was I think...

 

[Babydoll]

wow, that's awesome! why hasn't he been knighted in the UK tho, seeing that he is a citizen of the commonwealth and is ruled by the Queen?

You should never say that to an Irishman!

 

[Babydoll]

what i meant was, ireland is still a part of the commonwealth though, the Queen is ruler of the UK and Eire.

Head of state for the UK (which includes Northern Ireland) but not Eire (Southern Ireland)

Eire is not part of the commonwealth.
