While on the subject of 'Mr. Rattler', some of you may also recall this story: Bono was a participant in a cutting-edge film by his pal Dave Stewart (of the Eurythmics), who has been very keen on the development of digital film as an art form. In this film, which was actually shown at the National Film Theatre of London, Bono drops his pants to reveal his manly unit. He then performs a 'Puppetry of the Penis" bit, as the digital camera moves ever closer. The film ends with a shot of a digitally-created spider emerging from the eye of Bono's penis.
Trust me, this actually happened, and was actually recorded on film!
