Bono in NYC last night

circa1992 · 07-06-2007, 09:37 AM

Hey Everyone

I heard that Bono was at the broadway show, Spring Awakening, last night! Does anyone know if this is true or have any information/pictures?

~Sarah

P.S. For those of you that don't know, Spring Awakening just won 8 Tony Awards including best new musical and the cast is amazing--young, talented, and sweet as could be. I highly recommend it for anyone in the area (over the age of 14)

bonocomet · 07-06-2007, 10:54 AM

I don't know if it's true or not but I hope you're right!

Nice avi there by the way!

Mere steps away from you, JC, if it's true!

*Ally* · 07-06-2007, 12:50 PM

it's true- a friend of mine was at the show last night, and he was sitting a few rows in front of her. she said the whole audience cheered when he came back from intermission, and that he stood up and took a little bow.

she'd never seen him in real life before, and said he's much shorter and stockier than she'd imagined...

Purrrfect!

No more plays for you, Bono! Get back to work!

Yeah, wasn't there some rumor about a *new album* out there somewhere?

silvrlvr · 07-06-2007, 03:15 PM

Actually, I think Spring Awakening could be the model for Spiderman The Musical. It's a very young, fast-moving, rock musical, where the kids use hand mikes and dance up a storm. When I saw it last month, I thought, "If Spiderman ends up like this, it could be worth seeing."

I don't think Spring Awakening deserved best musical -- my pick would have been Gray Gardens. But I can understand why Bono would want to see it.

Now I wonder if he's going to have something to do with Live Earth tomorrow...

Bono
230 W 49th St

"Bono @ Spring Awakening. Sat next to U2's The Edge. Looked hot. Ducked out during the Standing-O to avoid the crowd. Smart one."

tell me about it- something that random would never happen to me, but of course it happens to my friend who's not even a fan!

but she knew i'd be thrilled, and i definitely appreciate her emailing me the story first thing this morning...

silvrlvr · 07-06-2007, 04:29 PM

Yes, they were definitely doing reconnaisance work.

We also ducked out during the standing ovation. Must be the thing to do
