...this is Bono when I got him in the hotel....he was leaving for a stage-check...

Oh Lordy hun he's a doll in this photo.... I'm melting from the sheer heat of it.....absolutely love this...you lucky thing! That is a great look he's sporting there..gaaa love the shirt....and his facial scruff is darling.....ooooooooo....do you have him pinned against mirror ? Whats going on here??? lol....grrrr

HellsBells thats a great one!!! Holla Lucia you are theee girl!!! Kitty look closer: its the car windows...gaawd go get a shower and come back again ;-)

Looks a bit tired or? Or pissed...OOOh maybe its LARRY pretending to be B.

Ok Boomie got back from my shower still dripping....Are you telling me that the car is that much taller than my baby Bono? ok this does make me giggle....What are they driving ? some kind of armored tank....you know I thought it was elevator doors or something inside the bar????? It's almost 4 in the morning here and I'm seeing purple people eaters!!!....gaaa sorry...hahahaha.... Boomie you devil...hehehehe....*hugs to you anyway* !!!! ... grrr

His hat looks like the one Matt bought in Milan.

...he said that he was tired because of the two shows in milan..he was going out by himself,this car was a sort of van with dark windows and here he was looking to the other people (about 15) waiting outside the exit gate.....but I was inside!!!!!!!!...the man you see by him was the driver and he told me they were going to the stadium (it is pretty close) to check something...I don't know what!....thank you God!

...*singing and dancing in circles I was right I was riiight*.....Lucia he was on his own???? NO Edge no Larry no Adam???? Sad show that must have been....would kick me butt if I go there and than NO MR THE EDGE :-(But anyway your story is a real kicker girl...

sorry Boomcha...none of the others...it would have been a pleasure as well...but I was there for just an hour...:)

Way to go Lucia!! You have totally redeemed yourself after all the stupid stuff we talked about. You are very lucky :)

ehi Oct...what a pleasure!...I'm happy to hear that,as I told Ali was there but she's been kind too when we said hi to him...she smiled...don't worry dear now it's gonna be your turn....GOOOOODDDD LUCK!!!!....:-)

Boomie you can stop singing alright!!! jees! Looks at photo ....well yes its a big car door....but still it sort of looks like it could have been elevator doors............NOT !!! hahaha... dances with Boomie cause she really dances good!.... Where was Bono's body guard at this point? Or was the Driver guy his body guard too? Hey he doesn't look so tuff...us girls could take him ....hihiihi.... Gosh Bono does look a little tired in this photo doesn't he?...poor darl'in.... but still hexy as hell...grrrr ...Lucia I' m never gonna get over this story of yours you know that ....right? I'm totally dwelling on it in my mind and all the what if's that could have been..............*kitty grinning*....rrrrrRWAAAR

....the bodyguard was behind him and he sat in the front...the driver was italian and very kind,...yes B was really tired but so cuteeee!....I tell you something really weird....in our slang " bono" means "cool"...I explain better...if you see a very hexy man like him and you say " ah bono..." it means " ehi sexy man,(or handsome or cute..whatever!)....it's typical here...I wonder if B knows it!

Lucia that is so funny when I first heard about that a couple months ago I laughed and laughed and laughed... doesn't it also mean "perfect voice" in some knock-off form of Latin?

..well it should be Sushi but I'm not sure...anyway if you'll ever come here and you walk in the street and hear..."ah bona!..(coz you're a girl)" means first that you're cute.second that the guy likes ya and if he's "bono" as well...just go out with him...he'll will probably invite you out for dinner...very nice restaurants here....and the ending?..just let him pay the bill...and run away..hihihihi

...night girls...hugs!

Nice pic of Bono. I wonder what he is thinking? Also I am looking for a pic from any part of the tour where the red lights are lit and everyone has their cell phones lit. Looks like outer space. So cool...

Vi , are you sure that the red lights are on ? when Bono asks everyone to turn on their cell phones on its during ONE and I don't remember the red lights...

To bad the suit is in this shot..

Yeah Triny if he's just been more left it would have been a great photo of our babe... I just love that shirt ....sweeeeet!Oh my goodness Lucia I hadn't seen that comment about Bono's name in Italian...to funny and so right on...Sushi I heard that about Bono's name meaning good voice also but my brain can't remember what language it was?....grrrr

I think it was on latin or something?

yes it's latin. funny is, 'bono' comes from 'bonus' bonus means good.

as a latin nerd I'll explain the thing... or I'll try.. Bona vox is the correct translation in latin, as the Bono word can be male female or neuter... and the word Vox, voces is female... so it has to be Bona Vox... or whatever.. vox means voice, voces voices... so Bono is a logical, yet wrong form... the form of the adjective depends on the noun behind it... latin is a very annoying confusing language yes!

Ingrid, have you had the latin stories of 'Aeneas' aswell? ohh, they were so boring.

nope, we had in the first three eyars a book called Via Nova... about the Flavus family... very funny sometimes, as I can still remember my very first translated scentence(okay the first were just two words or so but this one was soo cool back then) Felix in columna sedet et cogitat:'carpe diem' hehe I wonder if soulie/sushi/oct can translate this ^^ also last year we started on uh Hannibal and plinius's letters about the vesuvius eruption, can't remember wich book, and this year our teacher gave us prints of poems of marcianus or something lik ethat.... I swear you , that man is obsessed with his own 'male parts'....

I've had the Hannibal and Plinius stories too!The book called 'Roma' we used. (how original:S)

hm I do't think that was our title.. it also had some other stories in it, we could choose... it also had the murder on Gaius Iulius Caesar and some stories about love or so... wait those were poems...

Ok there is something I want to discuss that has not been mentioned , the scar on Bono's chin ,I love it . Ingrid now that you have Rattle and Hum youcan see his scar clearly when enters on WOWY it's so sexy.......

uh I allready had R&H since my bday aug. 6... he got the scar, also during the JT tour... he was balancing on the stage or so and fell down with his face into a light... or something like that... aaargh I only seem to remember snippets from the things I read... *hate my memory*

Yep.... :) I forgot all about it til you mentioned it...We were talking on another piccie about his falls and after i signed off i remembered he fell on the ramp during Msterious Ways at Zoo....more of a trip ooops I fell and up again...... baby's got to big of feet....ok this is PG board won't say a word.. *kitty zips lips*......hiiihi grrr

you know what they say about men who have big feet eh?ps.. they have really big shoes!

GGGGrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRrrrrrrrRRRRRrrrrrr

To TrinityNo it's blue lights....sorry I was looking at a photo at the time with red lights and I just typed red. Funny how the brain works...or don't

Still no Milky way pics? Oh well thats what I get for not having a cell phone. N.E.way all the other pics are great. We had lousy seats for Pittsburgh could not see much. Cost me $130 for tickets that I had to buy way back in March. It wouldn't bug me so much but my daughter was disappointed. So this is why I love all the pics and I ordered a DVD so at least we can see what we missed. Thanks for all the good pics

well Vi , know where you can find the pic you are looking for , but you must be willing to look through hunderds of u2 photos . I will try to post the linkhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/u2/good luck.....

To U2 Trinity. Thanks for the link I will be a keep looking until I find it. I shouldn't complain. I am fortunate to have been able to take my daughter to see them. Thanks again

To u2 trinity. I found milkyway photo,so I guess I found what I was looking for...thanks for the link...there are some great pics there.

Vi , glad you found the pic .who is the U2 fan you or your daughter?

toU2 Trinity. My daughter and I are both fans but I probably would have felt better if I would have boguht the DVD and Concert Tees online and donated the $130 I spent on tickets to ONE. We had seats up on Level E very steep. We both had Vertigo and had to come down to level C then we could see anything because we were in SRO with everyone in front of us. Then the ceiling which was actually the floor of level D above us hung down to where we saw nothing but the back of 2 guys heads. But my favorite was When Bono sang in Italian during Miss Sarajevo. Gives me goosebumps even when I think about it now. His voice was awesome. Pavarotte will be proud. I posted another message for you to find pics Pittsburgh Post Gazette. The photos are not that large but if you go to their site just type in U2 and the pics are listed under the article U2 Rocks Pittsburgh. AND THEY DID TOO! Thanks again.

Which Hotel did they stay at in Rome? We were told it was Hotel Grand Palazzo Carpegna but it wasnt.
