In this video, you don't see me on the General Admission floor after the show people losing their shit wanting to take photos as the maintenance crew is hurriedly sweeping around us. I'm trying to be polite, but I'm not going to say "do you really think Bono is going to come down from the stage, onto the floor and walk around by himself?" I don't talk like that, but sometimes have to tell people jokingly in such tone and manor. The madness didn't begin at the end of the show, but even during. I'm cool. I take photos with many people....if not as many as possible. Why not! Have a fun moment. Life is full of moments. Make good ones. People are going to say what they want when they share the photos they've taken of me. Most people are chill when they find out I'm not the real Bono, some feel like I've cheated them out or played some kind of mind trick. Others are indifferent. Odd to be indifferent. Perhaps they are my perceptions therein. My friends and I walked back to the Venetian and were accosted, in a good way, generally. Some people have no boundaries and grab at me or intentionally block my means of moving forward. I trudge forward and ask to allow my space. Some people don't register the request and I have to tell them with direct eye contact and a stern voice, "please move out of my way". Mostly males. People lose their shit, but by and large, most are respectful and endearing. Yet, not one of them asks themselves this question: "How is Bono walking by himself down the street without security, other U2 band members or an entourage of staff?" That answer is that it's not Bono. I could walk down the street without the wearing the identical sunglasses or any other identifiable and exact articles of clothing and accessories Bono was wearing that night at the show. I'm an artist performing. I have a story. I used my own phone to video what it's like being in public with a mass of idol worshipers doing exactly that; worshiping. No haters please. Bono's cool with me. I wanna be chill and tell stories. No harm done.
The accent is ridiculous and tends to disappear at times.Watching the video the big white teeth should give it away, let alone the bad accent
Exactly.Oh no! I didn’t get pegged by the real Bono!?!!!
"the band hired me for one video so that they didn't have to send bono to south america so i think he's cool with it "
Yep. The Sphere promo video. That's Pavel with Bono's face CGI'd over him./had no idea
Not horrible prices if you're a Deadhead (except GA, cause we're used to GA being cheaper than d-bag seats as U2 fans).
Have a great time!Wheels up in 3 hours.
Hopefully Pavel is staying home this weekend (doubtful)
