U2 will fly to the UK to play the Somerset festival in the middle of their North American tour.

Nice environmental festival then.

And another for his gigantic, swollen, self-important head.

I think that was the implication regarding the hat.

That's the incident I thought you were referring to, Jas.

Post by: Jaspersharpe on November 25, 2009, 02:35:21 pm: A legendary tale. I like the idea of U2 travelling on three planes. One for Bono's hat, one for Bono's head and another for the rest of the band.

Post by: lagerstarfish on November 25, 2009, 07:04:21 pm: The planes could be called U2one, U2two and U2three

Quote from: the flight controller voice in my head
You are cleared for landing on runway one U2one.
U2two, you are too close to U2one, please proceed to runway three.
U2three, you are cleared for runway two.

U2one and U2three, you two can land on runways one and two as instructed; you too U2three, you too are too close, head to runway two too

BOOM! no more big fat Bono Head :thumbsup: Cold play get to be top of the bill at Glastonbury and we get loads of jokes about Bono letting Jesus wear his sunglasses

I don't really want anyone to get hurt and I don't want anyone to have to listen to coldplay
