Scattered Thoughts: Hello, Hello

Bono gets “doorstepped” outside the studio in Dublin by some fans from U2Valencia.com. Note how Bono encourages Sam to bring The Edge outside, too.

Daniel Lanois also gets some in your face treatment.

    It’s amusing to watch Bono try to verbally manipulate the bullfighter into giving some deep answer, and then respond “excellent answer!” when he does.

    “Home! Take them home!”

    I’m always impressed by their good humor and graciousness. There are celebs out there who could care less about their fans, but Bono and Edge seem perfectly happy to chat. Notice Edge glancing around the crowd to see who else wants autographs whilst he has a Sharpie in hand — that’s how stars with class behave.

    I concur with Silvrlvr, they are very gracious.

    I was literally cringing with embarassment while watching that video.

    Yes, agree with the two comments above. Fans can be really embarrassing sometimes, but they (the guys) have so much (for lack of a better word) love for us fans.

    I love this video so much because it shows just how hilarious Bono is. He is so funny and I love when this playful side comes out.

    It is amazing how accessible he is, when you think of the life he leads and what he gets up to in his “working” day. Lobbying politicians, raising awareness on global issues, oh and don’t forget making great music… and then he opens the door to his fans and brings them into his world. Makes them feel as important as they actually are.

    When people say Bono is up his own arse, they clearly have never seen him for real. This video is not a one-off. This is how he really is.

    I love that man!!

    Ok, that’s really cool. Bono seems like a sweet guy.

    Transmogrified?

    Has Bono been reading Calvin and Hobbes?
