>Hi, there ;-)

.mornin' ! :)

>>they could have been instantly dropped from Island's portfolio.
>Yeah, right, Island would kick them just because Bono was on drugs. This is totally
>insane. They are probably one of the most profitable band they have ever had!

lol! i know! i KNOW! :)

>this was the first thought that occurred to me when I read this.

didnt read the last line of my post then.. ? :) "i lied a lot in this email" ? :)

>>why else do you think bono's nickname was
>>Bono "Skag Head" Hewson by the recording studio staff?

hehehe lol.. can you imagine Bono being called "Skag head"? rotfl..

bono: ok edge - uhmmm.. ive forgotten the lyricshs...
edge: dammit skag-boy, its "ooooo baby baby baby baby" - just like ALL
        songs!
bono: hey maan its ok - like... baayyyybeeee baaayybeeee lite my waaaay?
edge: yeh, whatever, skag-head - now pick up your guitar..
studio: uhh... take 4, skag-brain - get the words right this time...
larry: and a 1 and a 2 and a 3 and a 4 and.. BOOM! BAF! BOOM-BOOM BAF *TISHHH*

>Well, when I see the videos from the JT times I don't see a man who looked like
>someone who was on heroin. I mean, he looked so healthy.

tsk - he must be going through the secretive stage then, or maybe
it was bono's evil twin standing in? EEEEEEEEEK! :) heheheheheh!

>When I think of heroin addiction, I think of Kurt Cobain.

.. as you do... :)

>He looked like someone who was on very heavy drugs. Ok, maybe I'm too
>naive and Bono wore make-up to disguise it. (ha-ha-ha)

hehe.. well, that was a stand in - kurt is actually fine,
i hear he's working with elvis, manning a petrol station in kansas.. :)

>I'm not saying that story is ridiculous because "I
don't want to believe it". It's because it just doesn't sound true.

hehehe.. and it blatantly wasnt! :) the post was intended to be sarcastic.. :)
(as is my way.. hehe)..

nope.. the closest i think bono has come to illegal drugs is secondary inhalation
of Howie B's spliffs during the Pop sessions.. you can ask him.. :) hehe..

i think Howie taught bono (or was it adam or larry.. cant remember).. how to roll a
spliff..

"ta howie baby... that'll come in handy someday, im sure.. here adam - you take it
mate.."

".. bugger off skag-boy, i dont DO that stuff no more..... oh ok.. ONE more and
THATS IT.."

rotfl... :)
