An update from Bono (not THAT Bono):
A note from Bono van der Westhuizen.
Dear all,
"We are over the moon" were the first words blurted out by the men who
put up the website you all registered to. In four days more than
15.000 people visited the website. More than 1700 registered. We were
for three days in a row the number one search result in Google News
about U2. "This is awesome!!".
Okay, back to reality. There are rumours that the oakies from Ireland
(their management) are looking at venues in Australia and New Zealand
so I assume that they may look at us as well?!
To help them look at us I would like to ask you to find three
friends/mates/ex-lovers/you name it who would love to see them perform
in SA. Have those three register their name. That should bring us
another six thousand names plus the two thousand we will have by than
should make it something of interest to U2's management.
Once we have that amount of names on the website registered we will
make sure that the right people will know about us and what we have
done/achieved.
So use that grey mass you have, find three or more friends and make
sure they plunk their names on to the website. That wasn't that hard,
was it?
Will keep you posted once we have some news.
Big hug from us,
BvdM

PS If your sister (brother, father, mum, lover, neighbour..) is a DJ
(journo) at a local radiostation (tabloid, newspaper, TV station....),
ask her (him) to mention us. Threaten them with anything you have if
don't help you (us), if they do good karma will flow to them from all
of us.... Get the picture!

Please do what you can to help these very sincere and somewhat cheeky South African fans bring thos "oakies form Ireland" to play for them.
They definitely deserve U2!
You're right, I meant shy
