Who is Leo?

1. Bono got injured
2. People made a video wishing him well
3. A chilean woman and her son recorded a bit
4. They probably would've labeled it (in spanish) "Whatshername y su hijo Leo" ("Whatshername and her son Leo")
5. Unfortunately, the word "su" in spanish means both "her/his" and "your"... and before labeling the video, most likely they decided to use google translate or something like that and it came out as "Whatshername and your son Leo"
6. Hilarity ensues.

Its Karol...bad enough Bono forgot her and Leo, you could at least remember the poor woman.
 
There will always be new people discovering old music, getting enthusiastic and wanting to discuss it with other strangers on the internet.
 
U2 > News > LITTLE BOOK OF A BIG YEAR<br>Bono’s A to Z of 2014
It's January 1, 8pm. I nearly didn't press go on this, and I am clearly delirious in places. It's very personal, but I feel in a not corny way that U2 has a very intimate relationship with our audience… so I'm going for it.



This is too long.
You should not have time to read this.
If you do get to the end of it then you are probably on the same painkillers as me.
For the last few weeks I haven't been able to move around physically so I have more than made up for it by leaving my mind to wanderlust, untethered except electronically...
I have written words for new songs, but I have also had an opportunity to look back and review the year in a way I've never had time to do before... there have been more highs than lows, but perhaps the reason for this A TO Z endeavor is an attempt to learn from mistakes - the first of which is the discovery that I am not an armored vehicle. Edge says I look at my body as an inconvenience...The problem, as I see it, is that I think my head is harder than any other surface.

On the day of my 50th birthday I received an injury because I was over indulging in exercise boxing and cycling, which was itself an overcompensation for overindulging on alcohol coming up to the big birthday. I promised myself I would be more mindful of my limits, but just four years on, it happened again—a massive injury I can't blame on anyone but myself, mainly because I blanked out on impact and have no memory of how I ended up in New York Presbyterian with my humerus bone sticking through my leather jacket. Very punk rock as injuries go.

The consequences of this freak accident are significant enough that I will have to concentrate hard to be ready for the U2 tour in fitness terms… as a result I have cancelled every public appearance and decided this missive is all the communication I can manage for the first half of 2015, beyond muttering and singing to myself of course.

Then he proceed with the A to Z.
 
Recovery has been more difficult than I thought... As I write this, it is not clear that I will ever play guitar again. The band have reminded me that neither they nor Western civilization are depending on this.

Well damn mr Titanium. Now we know what it looks like. :wink:


Great piece. Well written, as usual with a lot of humour.
 
I laughed and cried reading this. I wish Bono a good and speedy recovery (as speedy as it can be considering the impact of those injuries), I hope 2015 will be better for him. He's a great guy :up:

This is probably the worst inside joke Interference has ever had.

I hang out here a lot, and I didn't even get it until now. (Kind of.)
