>I'm sooooooo mad ,frusterated and extreamly upset. I visit U2 chat rooms often.
ah.. obsessive compulsive disorder. :)
>I was visiting POPthis ( a wonderful U2 page)and someone told me Bono did heroin.
mm.. and?
>They said he told a magazine this and that he was imbarrased about it because he
>was addicted. I know this can't be true!
oh yeh, although not now - after rattle and hum, he was attending a rehabilitation
clinic - which was why there was such a long break after rattle and hum.
"gotta go away and dream it all up again", was bono's (coded) way of saying
he was going away to re-think his life's direction.
this is where the inspiration for "running to stand still" came from.
not many people actually realise that the song, while being about drug
addiction, it is in fact about BONO'S own addiction.
>If it were Larry ,Adam ,and Edge wouldn't
>stand for it. They'd kick Bono out and get him help immedeately!
they did - the band was broken up, and later reformed as the "new-look U2"
(achtung baby).
this wasnt widely publicised at all - McGuinness did quite well to keep
it relateively quiet, i think. it had a potential to devasatate u2s income -
they could have been instantly dropped from Island's portfolio.
>I'm not mad at the person who maybe made this up or the magizine who made it
>up.
no its all true. all of it. why else do you think bono's nickname was
Bono "Skag Head" Hewson by the recording studio staff?
>Stay happy.
:)
>Stay happy for yourself.
:) :) :) :)
>If you can't be happy for yourself be happy for those watching you,
thats profound... :)
>because it's likely they're content because they find they are greatful
>for the life they live knowing you're feeling the same compfort. What is
>joy if the ones you love aren't happy?
what is joy, when the ones you cant stand arent happy?
bloody brilliant, that what it is. THAT is joy. :)
rotfl! :) hehehehahahahahoahaohaohaohoheoheoheaohahah... :)
>Be true to yourself. Make great trueths so
>that you don't have room for lies.
i have an AWFUL lot of room to fill here, and ya know - lies just
fill up those awkward corners SO WELL..... :)
>They only slow you down. And what effects you effects us all.
>we've got to carry each other
hmf. wouldnt like to be the guy at the bottom then.
he's carrying everyone, so that fat ol' gits like us get a free
ride.
EXCELLENT. exploit at will, mortals! :)
oh.. btw: i lied lots in this email.. .. probably. havent decided yet.
lots of luv.
-az.
