lets' pretend you're a serious interviewer- the type that they really open up to. What's the ONE question you're gonna ask them? (I'm thinking something serious, not "did you ever cheat on your significant other" or "what's the exact size of your other significant other?")

This is something they'd HAVE to answer, too, not just make a joke to escape....

Okay i'll get us started even though mine is a bit sucky "What's the one thing you did NOT do but wish you did?"

or (for Bono) "What lyric are you the most proud at having written?"

haha I know that's 2 but i posted first so

------------------
Bono: There is a bit of my guitar playing, but honestly it's sad.
Larry: It is. But Bono looks great with it.

Take my shirt, go on take it off me
You can tear it up If you can tie me down

They have been so many places and seen so much, I would honestly like to ask them what is the most beautiful place they've ever seen with their own eyes.

If I get a second one too, I would ask, ever in their wildest dreams when they were young did they ever imagine just how great they are today.
 
typical....i am drawing a blank (though,i'd draw a blank if sparky were rignt in front of me)!
lemme think about this for abit!

i guess i should not quit my day job, i'd be a lousy reporter!

hmmm...lets see....
I'd like to ask Bono ...
"when it's all over ....years after you are gone (and I mean gone),because I know U2 will be creative until the end,what would you like your legacy to be...whats the most important thing to you about this band and these four men" ?
 
For Bono: Will you ever grow a mullet again? Ok ... just kidding. Seriously, though, they have been so many places, met so many people and done so many things. What is the one thing that you haven't accomplished or done that you want to do?

"I turn slightly and catch Bono with half a Perrier bottle in his mouth. He's sucking the thing in such a manner it would put Madonna to shame!"

"I'm very secure with the fact that I'm not black. I'm white, pink and rosy. But I've got soul."
--Bono

?We make music you can have sex to.?
--Bono

"Girls boys listen me kiss love fun drink sick kiss cuddle sex swim sea rock and rub." (from the gates of Bono's house)
 
Question for U2, just one? That would be tough, I would have to ask

How have you managed to stay strong in your faith and still be the biggest rock stars on the planet?

------------------
One love, one life...
Give peace a chance!
Don't let the bastards grind you down!

Bono: I don't walk, I swagger! I sashayed once, but just once. It wasn't for me.
 
I'd ask Larry, Adam, and Edge-'How the heck have you managed to put up with Bono for all these years?'

No-really, I would ask them how they have managed to maintain their close friendship and their creativity after all these years.

------------------
If you are really good friends with The Edge, you can just call him The~ Adam

The right side of my brain is kinda redundant~ Larry
 
thats not obscure, god ppl are so shy and ashamed to mention death.

id ask bono,when you were younger and you just started in the band what were your feelings and thoughts about IF it wasnt gonna happen was it a fear that it would all fall apart or did you have that gut feeling that it would happen,just a matter of time.did you have any back up in mind.

I gave this some thought last night...

People today have limited resources. Would you recommend donating time or money (and why) to social justice organizations?
 
then, while they were talking, I would nod and smile, looking thoughtful, walk over to Adam and unzip his pants, pull them off his legs and bundle them up and hide them under my shirt.
 
What has been the best show by another artist that you've been to?

Does it scare you that your fans camp out overnight in the freezing cold just to spend two hours within 20 metres of you?

LOL- this is actually a REALLY good question!! I'd love to see it answered!

Um, how about to Larry: what did you name your last baby?!

What is in your pockets (innuendo not intended)? Do they carry wallets (if so what's in the wallet), keys, gum?

Hey girlie I found this in a BP interview they did:

BP: What's in your pockets?

LARRY: Buttons for opening my gate (empties pockets), Lipsil, wallet, packet of Silk Cut cigarettes - nurses cigarettes! - homeopathic gear for sore throats, lighter, penknife.
BONO: I have no pockets.
ADAM: A load of phone numbers. Whose? Nah, I'm not telling.
EDGE: I don't have any in my trousers. In my coat (pulls everything out) there's my Gitanes, my Zippo, my keys and an awful lot of guitar picks. I pick them up everytime I leave rehearsal. I never put them back so on a given day it could be anything from ten to about fifty 'cos they just build up.
I sometimes think they breed in there.


Larry: BUTTONS!!!!!! BWAHAHAHAHA I thought that was funny

Meeting Larry:
*MG shows Larry poster*
*Larry reads poster*
*Larry smiles and says "Thank you that's very nice of you"*
*Larry signs paper, shakes MG's hand*
*MG almost dies then sees tearaway pants and gets bad ideas*

Larry smokes? WTF ... where have I been? And what the heck is Lipsil ... is it some sort of lip balm for keeping the Smooth Criminals lips even smoother.

Bono, Bono, Bono. Since he keeps wearing those tight leather pants, I would suppose there's no room to put things in his pockets.

when i was in ireland, i had the WORST cold. it followed me all around the emerald island. on the 23 of august, we were heading into Dublin and stopped at an Esso on the N52. I bought up all the kleenex and some LIPSIL for my poor tissue-rubbed nose.

it wasn't that great! I missed blistex.

and you know, at slane when people threw toilet paper around, I kept them for later use.

so that's what lipsil is...

and thanks for that "WTF" (see my post in "What has PLEBA done to me?")
