Bono to perform with The Corrs in Edinburgh

[~fairy_girl~]

Dunno if this is right forum


It said so on Radio 1 today, and has apparently been a rumour on The Corrs front for a few days that they'll perform with a special guest...

That guest has now been confirmed as Bono. Which, does seem pretty obvious now, that it should be he.

Dunno what song they'll do, probably WTSGB, but The Corrs are working on a new album of traditional Irish... so maybe something from there, dunno.

Oh, and they are on towards the end of the show...

Texas are on right now, and I haven't really been watching it as have had a stack or work to do, but it's been on in the background... Heard Ronan Keating and Beverly Knight, some boyband (poss Snow Patrol?)

Anyway, If you're in the UK you'll be able to watch the stream, or if you get the BBC channels as listed on my Corrs site article.

If you can't watch it... I know some Corrs fans are recording it, so I'll be sure to post the link if and when they've uploaded.

Yup he's already been on to introduce Nelson Mandela and give his usual speech, and then was interviewed and said that you can do anything you want in U2 except play golf!

 

[U2ElevatesMe415]

Awesome!!

 

[susanp6]

He was looking HOT while doing it!

 

[chickadee]

He certainly was, Susan! Raaaaaa his pink shades were ace

 

[susanp6]

Weren't they just yummy! You saw him talking to Edith then? I'm surprised he didn't kiss her hand or something!

I find it so hard to stop drooling over the sight of him to be able to listen to what he's saying, even tho' i TRULY am very interested!

They are repeating the whole concert on RTE2 at the moment. Texas is on.

Are The Corrs supposed to play after this act or what? Im lost!

 

[Bono's slave]

Bono is that hot you need oven gloves to handle him!

 

[~fairy_girl~]

Oooooh that was fab!

Bono looked so fine

And that yellow rose, soooo cute!

For those watching the repeat, The Corrs come on after some guy after Travis, who was a couple bands after Texas. Each band only did 1 or 2 songs.

Susan I did see it, I want her job dammit! Lol! I know what you mean too - he's being serious and all I'm doing it sitting going RAAAA at the TV! But I always go back and watch it again!

He's been on now with the Corrs - he gave Andrea a yellow rose and slow danced with her at the end of the song. Awww!

 

[kellyahern]

On my Corrs forum... It's being uploaded but apparently the sound isn't great so he's looking for some better sound to merge with it.

It should be available very soon.

 

[Niamh_Saoirse]

YEah, when he gave her that yellow rose I was like: Aaaaaaaawwwww....I want one too!

 

[enajh2]

I'm watching the first Corrs song on BBC3 now...

Nearly balls'ed up my recording good and proper because I set a timed record before I went out earlier tonight and it nearly stopped recording at 00.45 since they are over-running! So I had to stop recording during the interview with Charlene from Texas (my recording software won't allow me into the setup options, where the schedule settings are, while recording )

Bono on now

 

[susanp6]

And a dance like that too! It was quite funny some of the dancing he did actually! One minute i'm drooling&the next i'm laughing as is always the case with B!
