“Craft is nothing. Unless you have magic. Unless God walks through the room, it’s just notes, it’s just a song, it’s just technique, stuff you’ve learnt.”
One of the better interviews this tour, in which the band get enough time and space to answer some thoughtful questions extensively. Playlist in three parts.
Some interesting parts for the time-impaired:
Bono: “If you can’t hit those big notes and you can’t communicate how you’/re feeling, then it’s absolute hell on earth and you just want to get back home to your mother…if you had one….”
According to Bono he drew the 360 stage design first and made a model with forks on a diner table.
Adam:”No musician turned up for the audition of the Larry Mullen Band, so we turned up instead…”
Adam again: “I have a realy bad memory, I can’t really much past last year”.
Edge: “We are kind of unemployable at this time, that’s one of the reasons we’re still together as a band…”
Larry: “We are a significant but not too significant part of our shows”
