Bono in Simple Minds' "Up on the Catwalk" video?

[MattFromNYC]

theres a section in there video, where they show the people in masks walking the catwalk in the background and they closeup on one guy who i swear looks like bono...

i have heard a few rumours of such on the Simple Minds board about this, so i wasnt sure if there's any legitimnecy to this?

 

[Celticfc]

No one knows for sure if Bono was in this video or not. I tend to lean towards not.

 

[MattFromNYC]

so this was a legit rumor back then?

it does look like him.. a lot.

so this was a legit rumor back then?

legit rumor

sounds like an oxymoron to me.

 

[MattFromNYC]

er, well... did other people that you know of, openly discuss this theory? take a look at the video. its obviously him.

You mean the one that's had botox injections?

That's why he had the mask on... the injections had JUST happened

Hmm, I'm not sure. Perhaps MattFromNYC should open a duplicate thread at PLEBA for complete confirmation

 

[Miroslava]

So long as the thread title is cleverly written so it is not the same title as this one and replaces a few words here and there from his first post, he can totally pass it as a new thread and the mods wont notice it is a duplicate. We're dumb like that.

 

[MattFromNYC]

Miroslava... are you stalking me again?

I think I have a secret admirer. LMAO!

 

[MattFromNYC]

damnit people, stop mocking me. i aint that bad....

 

[lady luck]

Poor Mat!

Any picture of the guy that could be Bono?

 

[Boozyuzi]

The guy in the video is Charlie Nicholas.

.....who is my cousin's neighbor's nephew's dog groomer's college roommate....and word got to my cousin that U2's coming back to the US for a stadium tour. In fact, the dog groomer has inside information & says that the next album will be hip-hop.

I wonder which twin was featured in that old website that seems to have been shut down, "Is Bono Bald"

Here's the archived link to the page

I wonder why it was shut down?




I smell conspiracy

 

[bono_212]

I would have loved to have seen some of THOSE pictures

 

[Miroslava]

Well, I can confirm that Bono # whatever that was at the Chicago 9/21 and at the Cleveland 12/10 had his hair fully attached... Not sure which clone this was though

I adore Simple Minds, but I cringe whenever I watch the Up On The Catwalk video. I've been known to just skip over it on the dvd box set.

 

[filidh]

anyone know if Simple Minds are touring the US soon?

they are in the middle of a euro tour right now. No sign of them coming over here yet.

"Don't you... da na na na na, forget about me!"

 

[Miroslava]

As there is another Simple Minds thread active and this one lost its usefulness (if it ever had any), I am closing it.
