Too difficult to respond to all the posts individually since they are plentiful so let me just try to summarize.
People may try to falsely characterize me as a hit-and-run fellow but I hardly am. I am always ready to face the music with my thread ideas.
And it seems based on this thread so far, I may have made a grave miscalculation. After more hardcore and historically rememberful fans here have come up with more facts, I realize that my theory of Bono's rise to stage-bully during the JT Tour holds no merit whatsoever.
Based on the facts presented, it turns out that Bono's misdemeanors have occured as far back as the Boy Tour.
Also, I have strongly mentioned "unreported" incidents while hinting that my original post represents the tip of the iceberg. I was somewhat right when someone posted her how Bono hit a spectator with a mic stand. This incident could not have been reported if not for a fan who actually was present in that concert.
So while I may have been terribly mistaken as to the genesis of Bono's quasi-criminal activities onstage (which actually predates the Joshua Tree Tour), I still stand by my humble prediction that these sparks of anger will not manifest itself as frequently as it did in previous tour.
I feel Bono will have a renewed sense of maturity and self-control with this tour.
Cheers,
