I saw U2 on Tuesday night and i am absolutely stunned by the 360 show.The stage and lighys are incredibile and the music from U2 is just amazing.I was completely blown away by the whole concert.The video clips on youtube really dont do the concerts any justice.Easily the best concert ive ever been to in my life!

So reading U2 by U2, I was at the part of U2's concert in Tempe, Arizona where Bono was getting death threats from racists. And they took one particularly seriously cause the guy told authorities he had a ticket, he had a gun, and if U2 played "Pride," he'd shoot Bono.

 

So Bono is nervous and when he gets to the third verse (Shots ring out...), he just closed his eyes and sung, obviously a bit frightened. Then he opens his eyes after it's over, and Adam is standing right in front of him, willing to take the bullet.

 

I bet nearly all of you already know this, and I'm just really, you know, behind. But I found that so touching and had post about it here. Beautiful.
