Title: The BONO Question......
Post by The_Trician on Nov 17^th, 2006, 10:24pm

Thought musical folk might appreciate this:

At a U2 concert in Glasgow, Bono asked the audience for some quiet.
Then in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands.

Holding the audience in total silence, he said into the microphone

Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies
A voice from near the front pierced the silence............

.............."Well, stop f**king doing it then."

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

For some reason that reminded me of the Lenny Henry gag where he had the audience sing "Chocolate" to a tune that escapes me and then when they had finished he said "Thank you for joining me in those few bars of chocolate". Well I guess it was funny at the time.
