Stu was out at JFK?

[Meghan]

I was just at @U2, looking aimlessly through the lyrics, when I came to the performance of Angel of Harlem from the Slane DVD.
Here's a snippet of what it said:

"Angel of Harlem" (live from Slane)

Give it up, Edge

It was a cold and wet December day
Stu was out at JFK

I always thought Bono was singing, "Suicide at JFK," saying it was really busy there.

Who's right? And if it is "Stu was out at JFK," then, who is Stu?
(Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, but I gotta know! )

I watched Slane many many times and I am almost positive it's "suicide at JFK". I don't know who this Stu character is.

I thought it was "suicide of JFK" at first.

I was like, wait ...JFK didn't commit suicide...

 

[MacPhistoPT]

I've ever heard "it was a cold and wet december day, at the suicide of jfk"...

Could "Stu" be some in-joke name checking reference to Stuart Morgan? Bono's always throwing in names of friends and others on nights that might have a special significance.
