Hey there WIRE...
Since some of us are so entangled in the "Bono-Cocaine" rumor, I was wondering
if anybody quoted him yet, when he said...

"I don't believe in cocaine,"

Yeah yeah yeah...that was Rattle And Hum, so if the accusation is during the
Joshua Tree tour, it could have come before that song was written. However,
since I prefer to believe that Bono is not a hypocrite, I don't believe he has
done it since then(In fact, I don't believe he ever has). Besides, I think
most of us have heard the "Bono had a cocaine habit the size of Alaska" rumor
before. It also reminds me of the old rumor that during their first U.S.
tour, they brought over enough marijuana to last the whole trip. Like I said,
I believe NONE of this. Let's get off the subject now.

To Natasa, your ZOO TV questions...
Bono says, "You are the loudest bunca motherfuckers in the world,"...
I have no clue what the numbers mean...
He is referring to Michael Jackson, but had to edit his speech at the last
second(See ATEOTW)...
And the ZOO TV heads were simply an "opening act" on some European dates...

There is a great interview with The Edge in the new Guitar Player(I think
that's it, the one with Courtney Love on the cover). I highly recommend it.
It also has complete tablature fo "Where The Streets Have No Name." Well,
that's all. Take it easy everybody.

Fake as anything,
Matt
